When our 12 year old Dyson died, we were in the middle of a long distance move and just grabbed a lower end Hoover. It was barely adequate but it was better than a sharp stick in the eye.
3 years later and now with 3 indoor cats, we had to get something better. We went with a Miele Complete C3. It is clearly the best we have owned, way better than the Dyson. Expensive but worth it.
