## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it suitable  for long hairs without getting tangled round brush roller?**
A: We have. 2 long haired cats and the DC40 roller doesn't get tangled with their hair. However my wife and daughter both have long hair and I have t untangle their hair from the roller every few weeks. That said, I had a DC04 before replacing it with the DC40 and that was much more difficult to clear the human hair tangle. The DC40 feels a little more delicate than the DC04 but is easier to operAte,empty and clean. I'm please with my purchase.

**Q: is it light to use**
A: Yes it very light to use on wood laminate though suction keeps head tight to floor and awkward to turn without lifting.  Also as suction is strong very difficult to use on a deep pile carpet & light rugs although you would get a good workout .  Great on short pile carpets and heavy  rugs .

**Q: BRAND NEW dyson dc 40 animal keeps tripping the MCB the old dc 14 works no problem and we tried the dyson on next doors sockets and it did the same**
A: I've a very sensitive MCB and there's nothing wrong with my DC40.  You've an electrically faulty unit, get it replaced for one that doesn't trip the MCB.

**Q: Does the unit require a 110V or a 220V power input?**
A: Dyson requires 240v power supply.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ditch your heavy impractical hoover for this lightweight monster!
*by B***R on 27 April 2013*

It's light, durable, easy to fit but don't let the price put you off. Although these hoovers are a little on the expensive side, I have been very impressed since buying it and seeing if it was worth the money. Having a pet cat I chose the 'animal' option hoover and i've been very impressed since. This is a well designed hoover, took no longer than a few mins to put together with the small additional attachments easy to store in a place that won't take up too much space.The performance is really good, even sucks up small pieces of polystyrene with ease it doesn't leave you going over the same spot countless times as with other hoovers. Moving in tight corners isn't a problem due to the flexible rotating ball that allows you to manoeuvre in awkward places. It has a switch to move between hard and soft floor settings and it's lightweight frame makes hoovering the stairs very easy.The only downside I would say is the lack of a bigger area for the rubbish to collect. If you have new carpet you will make many trips to empty the cylinder but it's so easy and not at all messy that it isn't annoying.Overall, well worth the price, I would definitely recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ light and still does the job
*by B***Y on 14 April 2016*

when I unpacked the dc40 I will admit I was very disappointed with it as I already own a dc 15 which is a heavy duty machine and does the job amazingly well but it is getting slightly old now so needed updating. Putting it together was very simple, on first use I still wasn't convinced it seemed light and flimsy. The following morning I used it to do the whole house and I took back everything I said yes it is light but that is a big plus to the one I already own, it is very powerful the lead is long so I can do all 3 rooms upstairs without unplugging, the hose is long so I can reach into the corner of the ceiling. The only minus about this machine is the stair tool, it is not good at all on my old one the stair tool turned so no matter where you were on the stairs it was always easy to clean this one doesn't which is a pain. This is an excellent machine and would highly recommend

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great vacuum if not a little ungainly
*by E***E on 22 May 2014*

We've got a small flat in central London so were initially considering the DC50, as it's quite a bit smaller. However, after playing with the two models in John Lewis we ultimately went with the larger model. The build quality of the DC40 is much better than the DC50 (which felt cheap and flimsy). So far I'm quite happy with my purchase - it's easy to use, powerful and (as with all Dyson products) nice to look at.Two minor comments:1 - the extension hose is quite stiff (as everyone has said) and is only really good for vacuuming things above your head. If you want to use it to vacuum the baseboards you have to contort yourself into a giant letter "K" to hold the machine in place with your foot while you angle the tube over your shoulder and back down to the floor. If you don't do this a) the machine chases after you and kicks you in the ankles and b) the tube bends itself in half and you lose all suction. This would be easily fixed if there were brakes and if the base of the tube, where it attaches to the machine, was on a hinge so it could come out at an angle other than vertical...2 - it can be a bit wobbly when vacuuming in tight spaces. They've put a lot of effort into making the roller ball dynamic and easily steerable, which it definitely is. However, as a consequence it feels a bit like driving a wobbly Ferrari at 9000 rpm when you've only just pressed the "on" button. In short, it needs stiffer suspension.Overall stil a good buy though, and definitely the better choice if you're considering the DC50.
