Overall I am very satisfied with the Dyson DC21 Stowaway bagless canister vacuum cleaner. I have a fairly small house with a variety of flooring including hardwoods, carpets, and tile. I can say without a doubt that Dyson vacuums have tremendous suction and pick up just about anything you can throw in their path.

The cable length is fine for our home but might be a little short if you have huge rooms. Since it is a canister it is quite easy to move around furniture and gets the stairs clean with no problems. The hose is made of high quality plastic and seems to flex with no problems. Looks to me like it will hold up for a long time, even with constant vacuuming. The accessories attach to the vacuum with no problems and are helpful in getting many things around the home free from dirt and dust. The HEPA filter is also top notch which is something I definitely was looking for.

The floor tool on the DC 21 moves around pretty smoothly and it picks up from the edge quite good. It does have a bumper on it so it won't damage things that it touches which is a plus as you wheel it around the home. A very handy foot pedal will turn the brush on or off for various floors. This is just another nice feature that was included and one that you don't see on canisters that often.

Everything is easy to use which is common on a Dyson. The extension wand works great once you get the hang of it, which took me a couple of tries. I've read other reviews that complained about it but I think they gave up too soon. The dirt chamber is easy to empty as well and very simple to clean after each use. Since I have dust allergies I really need something that has great HEPA and is easy to clean, and the Stowaway fits the bill perfectly. And the fact that it needs no replacement filters or bags is a big plus in my book.
