My rug hasn’t been this fluffy ever.
It was matted and dingy and the dinky vacuum I had before did almost nothing.
This vacuum sucked out things I didn’t even know were in there.
Plus, it has awashable filter, and HEPA filtrationcomes standard in all Dyson products.
One reviewer wrote: The v10 works very well on hardwood and carpeted floors.

Very versatile and quick to change attachments.
