Hello Ozbargainers,
Thinking to buy a cordless vacuum cleaner this boxing/new year sale. Wondering which one is better?

or

Dyson V6

Comparing price…it looks like Hoover is approx 1/2 price as compared Dyson. DO you think it is worth to buy Hoover over Dyson?

Thanks in advance. Hope you enjoy holidays.

  • Got a Dyson cordless and a hover corded. Hoover is OK but Dyson is just perfect. Better build quality n design.excellent sucking power.

  • i was surprised at how good the Dyson was myself, never experienced the hoover, we have the animal but it was alot cheaper ( on sale ) when we got it.
    there is probably a reason why the hoover is half the price tho, just saying.

    I personally have not used Hoover one so I cannot give you a comparison between the two, however I can comment on the Dyson one.

    I'd say wait till Dyson comes to $300~400 region? DC59 and V6 are very similar as well (same motor I believe), I think the main difference was the new head for the V6 for some models of V6. So considering that, you would be able to score a Dyson DC59 model or a V6 model at far cheaper price than that, especailyl since I've seen them at $300~400 region (the Animal model I believe it was, which TGG is asking $700 for on your link).

    I own a DC59 Animal and if you ask me, they are decent but definitely overpriced at what they are asking. They do what they should do well, as a wireless vacuum cleaner (other than the battery life), I don't think I have more I want to ask for it to do. It sucks well, emptying it without making mess takes bit of skill but I prefer bagless over bag ones, it's easy to carry around.

  • Dyson seems like a ripoff but if you want to buy a vacuum cleaner status symbol it's a good choice.

  • Thanks guys,
    Although, there was not much input considering everyone enjoying holidays without spending much time on bargains….I can conclude Dyson is far better than Hoover.

    Thanks once again everyone and hope everyone enjoy their holidays with lots of fun!!!
