The old one is still working OK but is a bit worn out, and the carpets just didn't seem as clean as they used too be after using it, plus I am tired of having to cut hair off of the roller of the DC33 where this Animal 3 isn't supposed to have that problem.
I moved everything off of about 80 sqft of half of the living room (preparing to shampoo the carpet after vacuuming), and I used the DC33 to vacuum it, using slow strokes and going over everything at least twice. THEN, I used the Animal 3+ to vacuum the same area with the same method.
1) The Animal 3 picked up about as much as the DC33 did, meaning after vacuuming the area with the DC33 and filling the receptacle about an eighth of the way, the Animal 3's receptacle filled up about an eighth as well vacuuming the area JUST vacuumed by the DC33. The Animal 3 DEFINITELY works/cleans better! That is good given this vacuum was twice as espensive.
2) The ball definitely is more maneuverable which is nice, but compared to the traditional design the Animal 3 definitely drags more (read many reviews complaining of the resistance to movement). That said, it isn't THAT bad, just a bit harder to push/pull. The front of the roller head is definitely lower as well so able edge much better and get under the edges of cabinet doors better, etc.
3) Using the hose with attachments is more of a PITA to use on the Animal 3 as it was on the DC33. In both cases, the hose will not stay extended once the vac is on, and it is very difficult to maneuver without dragging the whole vac around, etc. The Animal is actually worse because the ball design isn't nearly as stable when locked in the up position as the DC33 was. I only have to edge for a few min though, so I will deal with it for the better performance using the Animal as a push vac.
If it didn't work a lot better than my DC33 I was gonna return it, but it does, so this is a keeper!

I could see maybe the accessories being "watered down" but the motor and physical vacuum I don't see Dyson making different ones for different stores. That's a lot to keep track of
The normal Animal 3 MSRPs at $399, the Extra at $499, so this 3+ model MSRP of $299 (plus another $30 discount for this deal) seems too good to be true... even for Costco, given new Dyson models aren't typically this deeply discounted when they are a current model... I will soon see, and worst case return.

Of course they will, they might even match the price if it's the same model you bought
Also, that this is the best deal I have seen on this model ever for a new version, the #1 corded bagless on rtings, and that it comes with the extra tool that is otherwise $70 plus tax and shipping...
Other things about this vacuum: it's a dead weight on (my) area rug. It's flimsy plastic and slow and heavy on a normal rug. Transitioning to hard floor you need to bend down and slide a button - don't forget to properly make sure the vac is straight up or it'll fall. This vacuum will do a great job in your house. You'll love the results. But-- it'll take you 3 times as long as other vacuums, you'll be exhausted, and it will probably bend and break.
-- I tried to like the ball vac for 2 weeks. Then I sent it back.
Yes as long as 14 days
