Extensive work was done on the dumbbell grip. This brings the weight of the cyclone pack as close to the grip as possible. This weight distribution allows for easier maneuverability, for high and low cleaning. Engineers also reduced the weight of the wand. The machine has the same reach as DC45, but feels lighter in the hand.

DC62 comes with a wall-hanging docking station. This stores the machine for charging and holds additional attachments.

DC62 Animal comes with a crevice tool (for cleaning tight gaps) and a combination accessory tool (a nozzle that converts to a brush tool for dusting). DC62 Animal also comes with a Mini motorized tool for removing hair and dust from upholstery and confined spaces.

The motorized head has a new configuration of carbon fibre filaments to remove dirt and dust across all floors. Nylon bristle strips remove dirt and dust across floors. An increased width improves surface coverage, and a self-tightening mechanism keeps the brush bar stable. While a dust capture channel prevents dirt from escaping back to the floor – increasing pick-up.

Many other cordless vacuums remain switched on from the moment cleaning starts and battery power is wasted between cleaning tasks. DC62 Animal has a run-time enhancing, light touch trigger so that battery power is only used for cleaning. Nothing wasted. It allows for a 26-minute cleaning session.

Yes, there is a new conical filter positioned at the top of the cyclone pack for easy access. Simply twist to remove and wash with cold water every month to maintain maximum performance.

Conventional motors work by passing current through their carbon brushes. Lots of sparks, heat and wasted energy. The Dyson digital motor V6 is small, light, energy efficient and up to three times faster than a conventional motor. Spinning at up to 110,000 rpm – five times faster than a Formula 1 car engine – it is self-regulating to optimize efficiency.

Like all of Dyson’s cordless machines, the machine has a 2 year parts and labour warranty.

Other cordless and handheld machines can be bulky or lose suction. DC62 has high suction power – it's the most powerful cordless vacuum. This machine is also very versatile. Lightweight and nimble, it can be used for up high and down below cleaning. The handheld can also be used for stairs and compact spaces.

DC62 comes with a Mini motorized tool for hair pick-up. This tool has increased power in the brush bar for more effective cleaning, especially on tough tasks. This removes pet hair and dirt from upholstery and awkward spaces.

The battery takes 3.5 hours to achieve full charge. The green light on the machine will switch off to indicate the machine is fully charged.

DC62 has a shorter charge time than DC45. DC62 fully recharges in 3.5 hours versus 5 hours for the DC45.

No, the machine cannot be used while in the docking station or connected to the wall charger.

Yes. The machine can be used before the machine is fully charged, although run-time will be reduced.
