What Makes Dyson Vacuums The Best?

Even by Dyson’s lofty standards, both the V15 Detect Absolute and V12 Detect Slim Absolute models really are the cream of the crop with fantastic features to simplify your housework. But there's also the brilliant Omni-Glide and Gen5detect Absolute Cordless Vacuum. Let’s take a deep dive into what makes these cordless vacuums so fantastic.

Laser Reveal

The latest standouts in the Dyson handstick vacuum range are the Dyson V15 Detect™ Absolute Cordless vacuum and the Dyson V12 Detect Slim™ Absolute Cordless vacuum. Both models, along with the Gen5detect Absolute Cordless Vacuum come with laser-guided cleaning that will make your housework and vacuuming feel like a breeze¹. A precisely angled laser detects microscopic dust particles you can’t normally see - making invisible dust visible on hard floors. For further scientific proof of a good clean, the LCD screen feature shows you exactly what’s been sucked up, to give you added peace of mind².

Powerful Suction

With great power, comes incredible suction… the Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute ™V15 Detect Absolute™, and Gen5detect Absolute Cordless Vacuum come with remarkable sensors that continuously measure dust particles and automatically increase suction power whenever needed³. With up-to 60 minutes of fade-free suction⁴, you’ll be able to cover a huge amount of ground on a single charge, you can also purchase an extra click-in battery as a spare so have the power to keep going! These vacuums also quickly transform to a handheld device for cleaning more concentrated areas at the click of a button.

A Healthy And Clean Home

A clean and healthy home is important now more than ever. It's a good thing the Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute™ and V15 Detect Absolute™ feature advanced whole machine filtration that captures and keeps 99.99% of particles - some as small as 0.3 microns⁵. Whether you are allergy prone or live in a house with pets, Dyson stick vacuums like the V12 Detect Slim Absolute™ and V15 Detect Absolute™ ensure all the dirt and dust is sucked out of your space.

No Hairy Problems

Hair can be troublesome when vacuuming. Whether they’re from humans or pets, strands of hair can easily get caught and clog your machine, but that’s no issue with a Dyson vacuum. The Dyson V15 Detect Absolute™ High Torque cleaner head automatically adapts suction power between carpets and hard floors to easily pick up hair strands⁶, while the Dyson Gen5detect Absolute has hair removal vanes that automatically de-tangle hair from the brush bar as you clean. The entire Dyson range (apart from the Dyson Omni-Glide) comes with Anti-Tangle Motorbars and hair screw tool that picks up annoying stray hair and uses Dyson’s anti-tangle technology to spiral the hair off and straight into the bin.

A Vacuum That Washes Hard Floors

A vacuum that can wash hard floors with clean water from start to finish, removing stains and spills¹² along the way? The Submarine™ Motorised wet roller picks up liquids, debris and stains, which are continuously extracted from the roller with each rotation.

Dyson Omni-Glide

The Dyson Omni-Glide easily vacuums dirt and dust on a white floor.

The Dyson Omni-Glide is an easy way to clean hard floors. This is Dyson's slimmest, most manoeuvrable vacuum. It glides effortlessly around obstacles and into tight spaces⁷.

It comes fitted with the first omnidirectional Fluffy™ cleaner head⁹, which even allows it to clean sideways! This extraordinary machine has been rearranged into a new in-line format, enabling it to lie flat to clean extremely tight spaces. It also offers single-button power control so you can swap hands while vacuuming without the machine switching off. Powered by a Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor, the Omni-Glide offers up to 20 minutes of fade free power¹⁰. And its whole machine filtration captures 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns¹¹.
