3. About.com
About.com appliances guide Mariette Mifflin raves about the Dyson DC14 All Floors: "I am truly amazed at the suction power of this vacuum and the amount of dirt this Dyson DC14 picked up from my regularly vacuumed surfaces." Unlike some other sources, Mifflin has no issues with the Dyson's performance on hard floors. The Dyson isn't compared head-to-head with any other upright vacuums.
Review: Dyson DC14 All Floors Vacuum Review, Mariette Mifflin
The pseudonymous author of this review -- a trainer in the carpet-cleaning industry -- gives the Dyson DC14 All Floors a high score, calling its suction "superb." However, he says the Dyson All Floors DC14 is fairly heavy and has "adequate but not excellent performance" on wood floors. It also has a hard-to-reach foot lever for switching from carpet to hard-floor use.
