Bought this about a month ago from Dyson direct on a similar eBay sale, what a disaster! Came broken and missing the actual vacuum head, not usable. Instead of offering replacement parts, Dyson customer service told me to return and rebuy. Total waste of time and even worse that Dyson direct is selling broken units with missing components. Awful

Purchased this last Black Friday for similar deal. It was replacing an aging corded shark vac and this is 100 times more powerful. I am very happy with purchase. It came with minimal packaging saying it was a refurb but seems to work fine. It is large and loud if that is a concern, but the suction power makes it worth it in my opinion.

I also purchased this and it is a fantastic vacuum. As someone else mentioned, it is a beast. You can feel the power! Great price for a great vacuum!

Received mine today. Looks brand new including inside the canister and the roller brush. Instructions were in tiny print and no photos - online manual much better. Tried it on a flat heavy rug and had to move setting to high pile carpet because the suction power was insane! Picked up an unbelievable amount of dust and fur, and this is after my Roomba already vacuumed there today. Yes, it's heavy, loud, and the re-positioning of the vacuum to upright is awkward - almost requires that you turn the machine off first. But the vacuum power makes up for all of that! Thanks to OP!

Received today from Walmart - looks brand new other than the long handle tube (not polished as a newly manufactured one would be, not scuffed up per say, but just not polished). Wheels - the ones that look like a bowl - also may not be new - as they also aren't polished new as all the other parts are, and had 2-3 pieces of lint on them, but everything else seemed brand new - even canister and other wheels. Need to do a full inventory still against the parts list
Box was pretty rough, though I'm not convinced that caused the below issue, as the were additional cardboard structures in the box that kept things together. Where the clip is that is broken should not have been influenced from the box damage.
HOWEVER - mine is broke at the tube - I saw one other Walmart review that showed the same broken part. Pic attached. The broken part is pathetic in thickness (maybe 1.5mm thin, maybe closer to 1mm thin). There is zero reason this part should be this thin and breakage prone!!!! And that someone else also posted the exact same issue proves it is susceptible to breakage. Really disappointed in this aspect. Have not even fired up the vacuum yet. Will look at talking with Dyson tomorrow, but a few of the postings I read offered a "return and rebuy" option only. Kinda silly process for a $10 part. And the sale price is no longer active

I also found a very small sliver of red plastic. It was not obvious it was tied to the broken part, but I have also not found where else this sliver of plastic came from. It looks like it would be the top of a clip, but I'll have to look further tomorrow to see if I can identify where it came from. Red colored parts are not rare on this vacuum, so it may take some digging. Or it could be the back of the clip that is broken? I'm realizing that is a possibility as I'm attaching pics. Well - I'm unable to attach pics.

Received mine a couple of days ago in a cardboard unbranded box. The vacuum feels used, but arrived cleaned all the parts. But, the first user itself made a huge difference on my carpet and never had seen with any other vacuum.
I ordered getting eBay to leverage 2 year warranty just in case if anything goes wrong. But, highly recommend this vacuum and it's detangling feature worked like charm with no trace of hair to the brush

Got mine this week. Great condition, the attachments are new, the vacuum *could* have been used, not sure. Very satisfied and I am happy with the deal. The vacuum is much better than my old shark.
