Dyson DC39 Red and Purple Versions

Several days ago, one of our website visitors from New Zealand sent us an email to ask what was the difference between the red and purple version of Dyson DC39, and why our website described DC39 carried
a 5 year warranty while a NZ retailer (harvey norman) only offered a 2 year warranty?

Sorry that we didn’t do the research before.
However, if you visit the Dyson NZ website http://www.dyson.co.nz, you can find that the red DC39 is called DC39 Animal Exclusive while the purple one named DC39 Animal.

What we know is that Dyson sometimes has specific models for different country markets (and they also have different prices, different warranty policies ).
Take DC39 canister vacuum cleaner for example,
at US Dyson official site, you will not find the red DC39;

Dyson DC39 Animal vs Multi Floor, what is the difference?

As far as I know, they are almost the same except for the color , the accessory, and the price.
DC39 animal is in PURPLE while DC39 is in YELLOW.
And the DC39 animal comes with a mini turbine head for picking up pet hair from tight areas while DC39 doesn’t have this tool. And DC39 Animal is more expensive than DC39 Multi Floor canister vacuum.
Otherwise, they are the same.
Contact Dyson customer service to confirm this if you want.
