Rating  - not worth the money at all
Dyson DC16 Root 6 Handheld Vacuum CleanerI am extremely disappointed with this product. I had heard so much about Dysons that when I needed a handheld, it was the only one I would consider. The problem is that the battery, fully-charged, only runs for 5 minutes. I never get to finish a project- whether it's my car, kitchen, steps, etc - before the battery runs out. Not worth this kind of money AT ALL!
Rating - DEFECTIVE DYSON: ALL DESIGN AND NO FUNCTION. PURE OVERPRICED JUNK.
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.
Rating  - Great Product-Love it.
I got this for a Christmas gift and 4 months later still love it. It has great suction and it is easy to empty. The charging stand is very convenient.
I read the reviews about poor battery life and that's what prompted me to write a review. I have never found the battery to lose power, but I use it for cleanups and small jobs around the house, which I what I presume this product was made for. It is not, after all, a shopvac.
Don't be afraid of the battery life, unless you plan on cleaning your whole house with this.
Rating  - The perfect analogy for the Dyson Root 6
Would you rather have 6 minutes of glorious ecstasy, or 30 minutes of completely boring Stiffy McStiffish?
The DC16 gives you 6 minutes of glorious sucking. But minus one star because 12 minutes in heaven is better than 6 minutes in heaven. I imagine if someone at Dyson set their mind to it, 12 minutes would be possible.
