Dyson offers a large range of vacuum cleaners to choose from, and it can be overwhelming to consider all of the options, and narrow them down to the vacuum that's right for you. We offer this Dyson vacuum cleaner buying guide to help you select the best Dyson vacuum for your needs.
If you want a canister vacuum, Dyson offers two series: The Dyson DC23 (a full sized canister vacuum), and the Dyson DC26 (an ultra-lightweight, compact model).
If you would prefer an upright vacuum, Dyson offers six series: The Dyson DC24, Dyson DC25, Dyson DC28, Dyson DC33, Dyson DC35, and the Dyson DC41. Each series offers its own features and advantages, and in some of the series there are two or more models to choose from. While you can discover all of the different options on the individual product pages, here we provide a quick reference table for easy comparisons.
Before comparing the various series for differences, it can be helpful to review the features that all Dyson vacuums share in common.
