Don't know where you're located but if you can get to a public library in the U.S. or get with someone who has a subscription to Consumer's Report (also at public libraries) CR has great reports on all sorts of appliances including vacuum cleaners.
I can tell you for certain that they never wrote anything very good about Dyson's.
They are badly overpriced for what you get, CR will tell you which ones work the best, are easiest to use, eject the most or least dust (effective filtration) and which are what they call the "best buys". Best buys are almost never the highest price, will do a very good job and have the better repair records.
Some of the the Kenmore models available at Sears usually get 'Best Buys' but you'd have to check latest issues for what's going on now.
I have a Kenmore cannister given to me by my mother-in-law and it's very good even though I recently had to replace the drive belt- normal wear and tear.
If you can't get to a Consumer's Report, all you can go by is word of mouth or perhaps Google something like "vacuum cleaner ratings.
Be warned though, as everyone will tell you
ALL VACUUM CLEANERS SUCK!
I have a Kenmore and have used a Dyson. I like my Kenmore better. The model I have is upright and there is no belt! [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70458-applaud.gif[/img] That is one of my favorite things about it. It wasn't cheap by any means (prolly around 250.00) but not as $$ as Dyson. It is going on 5 years now and I have never had a problem and since I have dogs it gets real workout! There are cloth bags which are fairly expensive but they sure cut down on the dust and they last longer than paper ones. And there is a hepa filter.

the robot ones are nice but they are not very powerful for deep vacuuming. I think they are better suited to hardwood floors. They have one at the lake.
