Dyson Ball Animal 3 Upright Vacuum

Meet the Dyson Ball Animal 3 Upright Vacuum—a full-size powerhouse engineered specifically for homes with pets and heavy-duty cleaning demands. This corded upright delivers what Dyson calls "the best cleaning performance of any upright de-tangling vacuum," combining their signature cyclone technology with advanced brush roll engineering that actively prevents hair wrap as you clean. The Ball technology provides precise steering around furniture legs and tight corners, while the self-adjusting cleaner head maintains optimal contact across carpet pile heights and hard floors. The Animal 3 Advanced excels at deep carpet cleaning and embedded pet hair removal—tasks where cordless models often fall short. At 17.33 lb, it's substantial but manageable, with the ball design distributing weight for easier maneuvering than traditional uprights. The corded design means unlimited runtime for whole-house sessions, making it ideal for thorough weekend cleans or homes over 1,500 square feet where battery life becomes a constraint. This vacuum targets pet owners, families with high-traffic areas, and anyone prioritizing deep cleaning over quick touch-ups. The trade-offs are clear: you're tethered to outlets, storage requires more space, and carrying upstairs takes effort. But for homes where embedded dirt, pet hair, and allergens are daily battles, the Animal 3's sustained suction and specialized brush technology deliver results that lighter, cordless alternatives simply can't match.
