Available online and in store.

TGG and HN have had similar sales, I guess it is now JB's turn.

$499 is a good price for this handstick. Normally $699.

  Is the D59 Animal and the V6 the same thing? Or is there any upgrades to it?

    The V6 Animal has a slightly different motorised head to the DC59 Animal. The new "direct drive cleaner head", which is the latest Dyson head. Allegedly with ~50% more suction than their previous head.

    From what I understand the motors are the same (V6).

    The DC59 Animal, and V6 (standard) are ultimately the same thing. Minus the mini motorised head for animal hair, couches, cars, etc.

  Is the only difference between this and the standard V6 the included mini-motorised head?

    The included main head is slightly different/upgraded as well (see above).

      hmmm….I wonder how much difference it makes.
      The rep at TGG basically said the were the same thing, the main difference being the added attachment (mini motor head).

      I think it's better value to pick up a V6 on sale and add on the mini-motor head if you really need it. If you were lucky to get the $320 deal then you can add the mini-motor head on and still be under $400

        Agreed. It's touch and go in terms of value.

        Cheapest the standard V6 is at the moment is about $399 (TGG), plus ~$80 for the mini head puts it at ~$480 anyway.

        Which in my opinion is enough to make me go the V6 Animal for +$20 and the improved head.

    The V6 has a motorised head, what is the mini motorised head used for? getting into small spaces?
    Edit: Oh I see, it is used for car seats etc without the long adaptor.

      I 'think' you'll find the standard V6 has the standard head (same as the old DC59), whereas the V6 Animal has the new self-motorised head.

      (see pic url below)

      Most retailers seem to advertise the motorised head on both, but there is a weight difference and a few keywords changed on the Dyson website itself.

        The standard V6 is motorised, I bought one and have checked.

        Notts on 28/08/2015 - 14:08

        The same as the head pictured on the right with the wider opening?

        Good to know. Thanks.

        @Notts:

        No, it's the one on the left.

        @whitey: If yours is the one on the left, its not motorised, its air driven.
