The Dyson Digital Slim…

I was really excited to receive my first handheld Dyson Slim Fluffy Extra vacuum cleaner. All my married years, my family must have bought at least 8 vacuum cleaners but none of them was handheld and cordless!
I am a senior and as I age, I find it a chore to lug the vacuum cleaner up and down my maisonette. I have to constantly watch that I do not trip on the wire as I vacuum and that it does not trip other family members as well.
Upon opening the box, I found that there were many attachments packed inside. To be honest it was a little mind- boggling for an older person like me. There wasn't a full instruction manual enclosed in the box. The only instruction page was for the part telling me how to screw the holder to the wall. What I like to know was how to use the many attachments.
With the help of my daughter-in-law, was I able to figure out how to fix up the Dyson and get it to work. Possibly, for future products, Dyson could give more thought for seniors to appreciate the product. Another way could be to direct the purchaser to view a video on how to use the product and the many attachments. Nothing beats visual when it comes to learning new skills.
Apart from the confusion at unpacking, my next few moments were ecstatic when the vacuum cleaner came ALIVE. The whirring sound was rather muted and the dirt pick-up was good. One need to press the lever to keep the vacuum going. Once released, the vacuum stops. The Dyson glides on the floor beautifully and the most surprizing and of most benefit to an older person like me that is that it is so lightweight! I could easily and effortlessly move it up and down the stairs. There are no wires to trip me up. These are huge plus points for seniors like me.
A fully charged Dyson gives me more than 40 minutes of use which is more than enough time to vacuum my home. I am totally loving it! Great product and I highly recommend it.
