Dyson Big Ball Animal 2 Cylinder Bagless Vacuum Cleaner | 228563-01
The Dyson Big Ball Animal 2 is built for homes that need serious cleaning power, especially if you share your space with pets. Designed to tackle stubborn dirt, embedded dust, and pet hair, it delivers strong, consistent suction from start to finish. Whether you’re refreshing carpets, cleaning hard floors, or giving the stairs a once-over, it makes light work of everyday mess.
Its clever self-righting design means it automatically picks itself up if knocked over, so you’re never interrupted mid-clean. The hygienic bin emptying system lets you dispose of dirt with minimal contact, keeping things cleaner and more convenient. With advanced filtration to help capture allergens, it’s a great choice for busy Irish households looking for powerful, reliable performance without the hassle of bags.
Key Features
- Powerful suction engineered for deep cleaning carpets and hard floors
- Self-righting design automatically returns upright if tipped over

- Ball™ technology for smooth steering around furniture and tight spaces

2 Tier Radial cyclone technology
28 cyclones, arranged over two tiers, generate powerful centrifugal forces to capture microscopic dust and dirt particles. This radial formation channels airflow through the centre of the cyclone assembly to maximise suction and capture more dust and allergens.
Ball technology
With a low centre of gravity in the ball, the Dyson Big Ball picks itself up if it gets knocked over, making it effortless to manoeuvre around your home. As it moves, dust and debris is driven out in a single action, so there's no need to touch the dirt.
Articulated handle
The Articulated wand handle rotates in 3 directions, allowing 360° articulation for greater control and versatile cleaning.
Tangle-free Turbine tool
For added ease, the Big Ball Animal 2 comes equipped with Dyson's Tangle-free Turbine tool - the only turbine tool that removes ground-in dirt and hair, without the tangles.
Self-adjusting cleaner head
The active base plate automatically raises and lowers to seal in suction across all floors. Combined with a powerful motorized brush bar, it deep cleans dirt throughout the home.
No dirty filters to wash or replace
Picks itself up, as well as the dirt

Legal guarantee
Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.
Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:
- do not match the description;
- do not function as intended.
Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:
- free repair or free replacement;
- in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.
Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.
For more information on your rights in a specific country, scan the QR code below or ask the seller. europa.eu/youreurope/guarantees
What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:
- Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
- Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.
Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.
