No adapter tool received with item
Received this item in the mail a couple of weeks ago. Went to use it today and realized that there is an adapter tool required to make it work with the vacuum that I did not receive. This item from dyson.com is the same price and comes with the adapter. Would have been nice to realize I was purchasing an incomplete item.
Great on pet hair pickup on furniture and in your car
I have the Dyson canister vac (model DC23) and have 3 short-hair cats and a Beagle. Although this model came with a very small tool with a rotating brush inside, this was useless for picking up pet hair. Thus, I purchased this as another attachment for my canister vac.
The product is exactly as it appears in the picture - it is about 4 inches wide and contains a rotating brush inside. You simply click it onto to your vacuum as you would any other attachment and when you turn the vacuum on, it rotates the brush quickly to pick up dirt. I have found it work exceptionally well on picking up cat hair on my furniture as well as dog hair in my car (which is very difficult to pick up).
It seems pretty well made - I have been using this for more than a year now with no issues.
One other nice feature - I also have the Dyson handheld cordless vacuum (model DC34) and this fits that, too! So, for even more convenience, I can use the cordless when vacuuming...
Looks good until you turn it on
User beware. If you use these tool to actually vacuum pet hair off of furniture the hair simply gets twisted around the bristles until you finally have to stop and manually pull off the hair and throw it away. I've started using a dandy little thing called "Pet Hair Magnet" I get at my local pet store for $12 or so and scrape off the hair and then suck it up in the hose of my Dyson Animal. Works much better and less frustrating. I was actually foolish enough to purchase a replacement from Amazon, being SURE the one that came with my Dyson was defective. Nope, same terrible tool. Not sure why as I've certainly used other power brushes and they've worked fine.
