My mum got a first gen Dyson and it lasted over a decade. I got a used dyson (not sure the model, its the one that pulls behind where your hose has the attachments for the sweeper head) about 3 years, so its around 6 years old and it still runs great. No issues whatsoever.

My mums second dyson is still going strong.

I keep hearing people claim they don't work well, I picked up my own because my friend said it worked like shit. I had a stray thread on the end of a matt and it stripped 3 rows of fibre before I got it shut off. The suction is incredible, I honestly just think people don't know how to vaccuum properly.
