New generation of Dyson products just does not last. The design of the filter does not make sense. They clog easily and cleaning is much harder. The filter needs to be changed way more often than the older version. I use the vacuum regularly. I had version 8, lasted 8 years, and version 14 lasted one year, and then I had to replace most parts. The plastic breaks so easily. I would not buy a new one again. Not worth fragment of the cost.
