This nozzle works much better than Dyson's high performance hard floor nozzle. We have a Dyson canister, I don't know which model but they are all the same. It comes with a standard wide electric brush and a small, furniture-sized electric brush. Most of our floors are tiled or wood and two rooms are carpeted. We were very unhappy with the lack of Dyson suction power on hard floors. I searched the internet and found this head and decided to give it a try. It breathed new life into our Dyson. With it you can get under the furniture, you turn the hose to the side and everything slides under the sofa or something. There are also these little doors that you can open to suck on the side of the baseboards. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five was because I thought it was a little pricey for the lightweight plastic it's made of, but when you have a Dyson like us and its performance up hard floors are dissatisfied, you will love it.
