Cordless vacuum cleaners - help!

I really don't feel I can manage my very heavy Dyson anymore & am quite impressed with the look of the new cordless ones. A friend has a GTech AirRam which she loves but DH is convinced the Dyson V6 looks much better & is cheaper. My worry is it has all the weight at the top which makes it look awkward & only had 20 mins running time. Can anyone recommend one or the other? All help gratefully received!

We bought a gTech AirRam. Our neighbour is thrilled with hers but my daughter has long hair (comes halfway down her back) which snarled up the rollers. We tried cutting it out but no luck. Eventually we threw it away.
So if nobody in your household has long hair it's probably great. Otherwise, think twice.

I have a lower powered Dyson, but it is good, so I am sure if I had the V6 or above it would do instead of a standard vacuum

I bought a Morphy Richards one. It's the red one. It's awful. It's heavy. It knackers me out. It always needs emptying. If you get your thumb in the wrong place it switches the thing off. I HATE IT!!!

I have just done round with it and I am about to throw it outside the back door. When I've had a rest.
