The Dyson DC41 upright released in late 2011 as the replacement for the DC25, is the first upright vacuum with Dyson's new Radial Root Cyclone technology as well as an automatic height adjuster which provides the maximum amount of power in the suction head.

It is also an Animal vacuum because it is specifically designed to clean up pet hair and dander. The powerful cleaning head and Mini Turbine Brush suck up all the debris, and the filtration system keeps all the dander in, which makes this an excellent vacuum for people with allergies.

To reset the Brush bar press the Brush bar control button twice or switch the machine off and back on. Please note: In normal use, the Brush bar automatically turns off when the machine is upright and automatically turns on when the machine is in the vacuuming position.

If your Dyson vacuum has stopped working, try checking the battery and charger for any damages or cracks first. If these are fine, the fault could be due to the motor. Another way to tell if the motor is faulty is if there was a strong burning smell before your Dyson vacuum lost power.

The most common cause of no power is the machine overheating and cutting out. In this case once the vacuum cleaner loses power leave it for at least half an hour and then try turning it back on again. If it comes back on again after an hour then clean your filters and check for blockages.

But before you throw in the towel, check to see if your vacuum is dyson vacuum repair. One of the most common dyson vacuum problems is a blocked filter. Fine dust and animal hair can quickly build up and block the flow of air, making it difficult for the vacuum to suction up dirt.
