The answer to Kevy's question: Dyson Co. Britain dinged them on false advertising. The vacuum does, in fact, lose suction over its lifetime. My vacuum repair guy took a screw driver, pried open the case and showed me why. Maybe other, newer models than the Animal do not have this component.

I still like my Dyson Animal, though. It's lightweight, bagless, and the attachments are very easy to use. I'd recommend this vacuum cleaner but with the knowledge that you'll be replacing the interior filter every now and again.

If anyone's interested in Roomba still, it's today's woot. $150

It looks like we will need to get a new vacuum, and it will more than likely be a Dyson Animal.

Any suggestions on where to get the best price? It looks like the ones on eBay are all refurbs (although I just made a quick cursory look).
Anyone readily know the differences in the different models (D23, D24, D25, D28, etc.)?
What is the difference between the "ball" and the "Animal"? It looks like the Animal has the same ball.

Again, I have only made a cursory look and will do some more detailed research later; I just wanted to throw some initial questions out there.

I don't know the differences, but we have the Animal one, and it's fantastic. No ball on ours, though. Had to take it apart a couple of times to get it cleaned out, but it goes back together, and works again. Had to call customer support once, to get the front roller back in, but they were great and coached me through it.
