Our Verdict

Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal [Animal Pro, Multi Floor]

Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister

The Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister is a better canister vacuum overall than the Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal. The Eureka performs significantly better on all surface types, has a better build quality, and is more portable. However, the Dyson is more maneuverable, comes with several tools and brushes, and is easier to maintain.
