Dyson Outsize Cordless Vacuum

Yes, for the most part. It keeps up with dog and cat shedding, and long hair doesn't tend to wrap the cleaner head, though fur clogging the brush area does happen now and then. The 1.89-liter bin means fewer trips to the trash, but with heavy shedders it can still fill more than once a session.

It's mixed. At 7.9 lb it's heavier and more top-heavy than smaller Dyson sticks, and that comes up a lot. Others find it well balanced once it's moving across the floor, so the weight bothers you most when you lift it to clean above floor level.

Not great. The Outsize is good on hard floors and low carpet, but on large area rugs it can stall above low power, and the brush sometimes stops at floor changes. If most of your floors are high pile, it's common to keep an upright around for those rooms.

No, and that's a frequent complaint. There's no lock and no on/off switch, so you hold the trigger squeezed the entire time it runs. Over a full-house clean that gets tiring, and it's worth trying the grip in a store before you buy the Outsize.

A whole house on a quick pass, in many homes. Dyson lists up to 60 minutes per charge. Deep cleaning carpet at higher power drains it a lot faster, so ECO or AUTO is the better pick for long sessions and BOOST is better kept for stubborn spots.
