The Dyson Big Ball Multifloor 2 is a less accessory version of the Absolute 2. If the two models are identical, the Multifloor model only comes with the pneumatic brush.
This Cinetic Big Ball Multifloor 2 has the same features as the Absolute 2. If this version comes with fewer accessories, it still provides excellent suction performance as well as almost non-existent maintenance.
Strong points
- Minimal and simple maintenance (no filter cleaning in particular).
- Easy dust emptying system.
- Highly efficient Big Ball system: the vacuum lifts up if it rolls over.
- General ease of use.
- Improvements on many points (system for attaching accessories, installation of the collector…).
Weak points
- Noisy.
- Consumes a little more than others.
- Collector emptying system very effective but perfectible (attachment of the hatch and raising of the collector walls).
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
The Philips PowerPro Expert FC9729/09 is a bagless canister vacuum that works on all floor types. Unlike the FC9745/09 model which has multiple accessories, this one only comes with a hard floor brush to vacuum, as its name suggests, on hard floors and parquet floors. This canister vacuum has good maneuverability which makes it pleasant to use.
