 Remanufactured Garbage. Not worth the Money. My Dyson DC16 was defective. May 7, 2008

As an owner of several Dyson uprights, I was excited about the Root 6. Finally, a portable vac for quick pick ups around the house. However, as it turns out, this vacuum poorly performed from the time it was out of the box: it has horrible battery life; a charger that doesn't charge; a main unit that will work, if you are lucky, around six months.
After contacting Dyson customer service I was told Dyson was having supplier issues. I was promptly sent a remanufactured unit (I was told I was getting a new unit) which failed to work after less than 10 days. I've also been sent two new batteries and two chargers. Today, the unit hasn't been used more than 10 minutes and is no longer functioning.
The reason for all the defects? It doesn't matter which customer service agent you ask, all of them wil tell you Dyson is currently having "supplier issues" in regard to the Root 6. Manufactured in China, it appears Dyson root 6 has more than a few dissatisfied customers and more than a few poorly performing hand held vacuums. This vacuum is a real disappointment. It looks great but performs poorly. I was recently told to send the unit back and Dyson will determine the cause of the problem. Without sending it in, I can tell you this vacuum is pure junk. I've never owned a piece of equipment with which I've had so much trouble. The Dyson Root 6 is the biggest piece of garbage I've ever owned. Don't believe the Dyson hype on this vacuum. Stay away from the Dyson root 6 at all costs. It is a complete waste of money and you will most certainly be disappointed.

We got a great price on the Dyson DC16. Very powerful and perfect for everyday use. Excellent for the car. Of course, the only problem is the short battery life (6 minutes). But because it is so powerful, its not really that big of a deal...
 Dyson Hand Vacuum May 23, 2008

I have looked for a hand vac for quite a long time. I've read lots of reviews about different brands and none of these reviews were very good. (I won't mention any names)
I used the Dyson hand vac at a friends house and when I got home, I ordered one. It is the greatest! It will run about six minutes on a full charge. It comes with a charge cradle you mount on the wall and you just drop the vac into the cradle and it charges up.
Our home vac is the Dyson full size model and it is the BEST vac we have ever owned. Dyson makes the BEST.
Thank you.
Wow, it just keeps going. May 25, 2008

Now you can clean all the stairs.
I can't believe I've been using those underpowered dustbusters that run out of juice all this time.
Finally a hand held vac that can keep up with the dirt.
Thanks Dyson.
extremely dissatisfied August 19, 2008

My first complaint about this vacuum was how short the charged, usable time was, only about 5 or 6 minutes. I just had enough time to do my two sets of stairs and that's it. After a few days, it konked out completely. I returned it for a refund. It was a refurbished model and must have been a lemon. I recently bought a black and decker corded hand vac for a third the price, which works great. Even if it had continued to function properly, 5 minutes is a ridiculously short amount of time for it to remain charged.
