The Dyson vacuum cleaner has been looked at over the last year as one of the best providers of quality and innovative technology in the industry. One of the most popular of their vacuums is the Dyson DC18 Slim upright vacuum which has the ability to pick up as well if not better than any other upright vacuum on the market while being light weight and easy to use. The DC18 weighs 16lbs which is about 4 lbs less that Dyson’s other upright vacuums making it much easier to carry, push, and put away.
But the weight of the Dyson DC18 Slim isn’t the only feature that this vacuum has. Dyson has built this bagless vacuum with their usual array of features making it a very powerful performer.
The Dyson DC18 Slim Features:
- A Lifetime HEPA Filter
- Lightweight & Ergonomic
- A Expandable and Retractable Wand
- A Hygienic and Easy Empty Canister
- Asthma Friendly Certification
- A Toggle Switch For Brush Use
- Adjustable Height
The Dyson DC18 is equipped with a lifetime HEPA filter to catch the smallest particles like pollen which are major irritants for allergy sufferers. The filter simply needs to be clean once a month with warm water and it should keep your house clean and your vacuum running well for years to come.
The DC18 upright is lightweight at only 15.8lbs making it very easy to use, without hurting your back in the very least. One of Dyson’s best features is that most of their vacuums are equipped with ergonomic handles to make moving and storing you vacuum much easier, because you no longer need to carry them around in a manner they weren’t meant to be carried in.
Most vacuum cleaners come with a “wand” or tube that wraps around them for which you can use to clean your furniture, your car, or your blinds. While most of them like to fall off while you are vacuuming or get int the way by getting caught on a corner or a door handle the Dyson DC18 Slim‘s want doesn’t. The people at Dyson have added the extend able wand which starts in the collapse position and is only seen when you want to see it. This means that it isn’t falling all over the place or getting caught on anything. Just release the vacuums handle and extend the tube and you can get everything those other vacuums can but without the eyesore or the inconvenience.
The DC18 Slim vacuum is a bagless cleaner which means that it has a canister and not the bag you may be used to. Sometimes people can be a little weary about getting a bagless vacuum because they can be difficult to empty and clean, but not the Slim. The canister on all Dyson’s are certified asthma and allergy friendly and are completely hygienic because they allow for easy emptying in which you don’t have to touch the dirt. To empty the canister on the DC18 all you have to do is push a button so you never get your hands dirty or accidentally dump anything out while trying to mess with a difficult to open canister like some vacuums have.
The last two features Dyson DC18 All Floors has are a toggle switch that allows you to turn your brushes on and off so that you can protect your hard floors from scratches when you are vacuuming over them, and an adjustable height handle to make cleaning easy no matter how short or tall you are. These are really great because they add convenience to your chores. Instead of having to get out your broom you can get the dirt off of your tiled floors without worry about damaging them by turning off the brushes on your vacuum. And instead of trying to crouch down or lift your arm up you can adjust the handle to make cleaning comfortable for you.
