However, if you fail to take good care of your Dyson, it's unlikely to last as long as that. To help you out, we've put together some advice on looking after your Dyson. How to empty a Dyson

Charge If you own a cordless Dyson, it's possible that the battery has simply run out of charge – most cordless vacuums can't run for long on a single charge (especially if you're cleaning on full power), so, like a mobile phone, they may abruptly cut out and need recharging. Filters If the filter needs cleaning, the vacuum may grind to a halt – usually a warning light (or, on newer models, a warning message on the LCD screen) will show if this is the case. Just follow the steps above to get your Dyson working again. Filters Most newer models have a single filter at the very top of the vacuum. They should be unscrewed and rinsed with warm water once a month – it's important to let them dry naturally, or they could become ineffective. Dyson recommends leaving them beside a fan or open window for at least 24 hours.If you own a cordless model, press the red wand release button and pull the wand away from the dust container and then firmly press the red dust container release button to release the dirt. Its corded models ride on a ball and castors instead of wheels, which allows them to pivot and change direction more easily. While this doesn't give you as much manoeuvrability as a top-of-the-range cordless vacuum, it sets them apart from most corded competitors. However, the newer models have much longer run times and can hold more dust. These are important considerations if you live in a larger home, where smaller vacuums will struggle to get round in one go and will need emptying more regularly. If you own a corded model, you usually press the catch on top of the carry handle to remove the dust container and then press the catch again to release the dust from the bottom of the container.

Cordless vacs' versatile design often makes them more convenient than plug-ins, and they tend to be much lighter too. However, cordless vacuums are usually more expensive, and not all are an improvement on corded models – some have extremely short run times and minuscule dust capacities. As the table above shows, prices of cordless Dyson vacuums vary considerably. The latest models cost more than twice as much as earlier editions.Fit's:DC40 Animal, DC40 Animal Complete, DC40 Animal Complete, DC40 Animal ERP, DC40 Animal Exclusive, DC40 Multi Floor, DC40 Multi Floor Complete, DC40 Multi Floor Complete, DC40 Multi Floor Complete, DC40 Multi Floor ERP, DC40i, DC40i, DC41 Animal, DC41 Animal Limited Edition, DC41i, DC41i, DC55, DC75 UK postage is free.

Brush bar As anyone who's lived with a long-haired housemate or four-legged friends will confirm, tangled brush bars are a nightmare – they can cause suction power to deteriorate and lead to other mechanical faults. To keep on top of things, you should carefully cut away any hairs and fibres wrapped around the brush bar after each clean. Again, this depends on which model you own. But there are three areas that every Dyson owner should pay close attention to:

Some models also have a built-in self-righting mechanism, enabling the vacuum to correct its own stance if it topples over.Dyson was an early adopter of several impressive cordless vacuum features.

In general, upright models are easier to store (because there's no trailing hose) and better at cleaning pet hair, but they can be tiring to push on carpets. On the other hand, cylinder vacuums are more manoeuvrable (particularly on stairs) and are often quieter, but they're not so good for covering large areas.
