We're looking for 10 families with cats or dogs at home to trial one of two vacuum cleaners from the Dyson Animal range - the DC19T2 - worth £250 and the DC25 - worth £311.
The project involves four stages, which would take place over about 6 weeks:

  1. This recruitment survey - once we have all the volunteers in, Dyson will choose the 10 testing families

  2. Testers will then be sent one machine to test - these can be kept by the testing family. When the machines are first received Dyson would like the tester to fill in and return to Dyson a usability survey.

  3. Testers would then need to send Dyson (in pre-addressed /pre-paid envelopes ) the dirt, fluff and fur that they collect weekly for up to six weeks. They would also like to know how frequently testers vacuum. (This is not at all judgy and will not be posted on Mumsnet, honest!! )

  4. Lastly, after the six weeks is up (probably early Oct), one of the insight team at Dyson would like to visit the tester to chat about their thoughts and experiences with the Dyson - this chat would last approximately 45 minutes.

In order to take part you need to have at least one cat or dog and live in the UK.

If you'd be interested in taking part and believe you can undertake all elements of the project, please sign up here

Good luck

I'm pleased to announce Dyson have selected 11 (not 10) of you to test their animal vacs - the lucky testers are

BreeVandercamp, jamandjerusalem, Ilovemydogandmrobama, Itsthawooluff, maddiemostmerry, McDreamy, notquitenormal, saltire, smackapacka, Thell and whimsy

An email from me is on its way - congratulations

We're really sorry to those who were not selected - we had nearly 300 of you apply within 3 days so were overwhelmed. Thank you.
