I like to set this straight for everyone looking into this. Buying this was so confusing because there are 5 versions of Dyson V6: Absolute (pink), Clean (red), Fluffy (blue), Animal (purple) and Standard (White). I bought the V6 Absolute but I want to share my experience here to help you decide the right version for you.
The difference among the Dyson v6 versions:
Standard - has a 20w motorhead attachment, this is the weakest of the series and a crevice tool
Animal - same motorhead attachment as the standard. In addition it has a mini motorhead for pets
Fluffy - has all the above and one additional soft brush attachment specifically designed for bare / hardwood floors
Clean - has all the above but a more powerful 35w direct-drive cleaner head - which replaces the standard 20w motorhead.
Absolute - has the mini pet tool as above, a more powerful 50w direct-drive than the Cleaner, and oddly, a very plain / simple attachment with silicon wipes for hardwood floors instead of soft brush attachment. In addition it has a Hepa filter at the motor exhaust - this also makes it a little heavier. All this will make the battery work a lot harder than the lower end versions.

I bought from Dyson direct yesterday over the phone (total clean model) If you say you an existing customer they give you £10 and they threw in a free accessory pack with additional nozzles RRP £60

Not sure how this gained so little heat in comparison to the other dyson thread, which didn't have the extension tool, this one is much better at 169, wish i had see this :disappointed:

Does the long thing come off so it's short?

​thanks for the information, that does help alot

Hope that helps someone..

Yeah I had that one a few months ago before returning it to Dyson, it's an excellent vacuum but this is the price I paid months ago so not a good deal IMO! I called Dyson this morning and there Black Friday deals are terrible... Guy on the phone even told me the prices are higher than they were a few weeks ago on some lines such as the V8 :confused:

My plan is to buy the cheapest possible V6 (some going for £129) and just use it for a year until the V8 comes down in price! And as for waiting for Black Friday, well that was a waste of time I won't make the mistake of doing again!

Edit: Also the fluffy hard wood attachment will not fit on the V6 Absolute! Sold separately anyway but if you was thinking of getting an Absolute and the hard wood tool separately for the total package think again! The V8 however works with every tool in its line and even comes with the hard wood tool, or so I'm told...

thinking about getting this

Thank you heat added!!
I got this dyson at the price of £148.98 delivered from Very with discount code.

I had to open a new credit account.

The code is KH3T3 which gives you £25 off a £50 spend!

Code is for new customers with new credit account and expires 7th January 2017

These are new models and very similar to the Dyson V6. Reviews are really good and with a 2 year guarantee you cant go wrong.

I am buying the new Vax cordless stick.Reviews are as good or even better than a Dyson. Argos have reduced the pet version to £95 in the Black Friday sale. I feel Dyson are for rich people or Super Chavs.I could well afford a Dyson if i wanted.

Thanks, great price, I'm booked in!

Is there much difference between this and the absolute? I've tried my mum's absolute and preferred it over the older dyson she had but is it worth spending more?

John Lewis - Price matched.

very tempted by this, but was already decided on the Vax slimvac, anyone any idea how they compare?

Dyson are one of the worst brands of vacuum you can buy. Cold.

Currys have price matched :smiley:

how do you get the 10% off at very. never used before

Thanks, just bought from AO, free delivery tomorrow, I wanted one anyway. Good deal
Tesco was £3 for delivery and didn't seem to be able to C and C

Ao eBay - £169. You can also make use 10x points eBay offer.
169x10 = 1690 points which is approx £8.45
This makes it £160.55.

Thanks. I ll probably add it to the post. For this price I will not miss the chance :smiley:

KPAGM gets 10% off until 6th December

Undecided on how much I 'realllly' need a new hoover

Considering buying from very and paying over three months where you get another 10% off for first credit purchase... hmmm :man:

Thanks vassy, great price
