DysonV15 Detect Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, Yellow/Nickel

rated as the best vacuum in many categories from rtings.com, most notably pet hair, i bought it on their recommendation alone because i love the guys. and its a beast. i actually kind of ENJOY vacuuming with this thing, just because ive never had a cordless experience before this vacuum, either. i tested against my robot vacuum, which ofc doesnt get everything a proper vacuum will get, but also against my previous corded vacuum, and still, it grabs plenty. anti-tangle head, the head with the light on it is a game changer for non carpet (hardwood, tile, etc) surfaces. the design is minimal, well thought out, and its easy to swap stuff around. finally, a vacuum where you actually care about the different attachments and use them. its just so easy and powerful.BUT, nothings perfect. none of this stops me from giving it 5 stars, the vacuum is that good, but one thing ALMOST did get me to do it, and well start with that first:and that, is that this vacuum DOES try to speed up and slow down depending on what is happening. if it detects more dust, or detects that the airflow has slowed down (because you just went on to thicker carpet, or if something is blocking the pipe, etc), it will of course speed up to continue vacuuming well. the issue though? on some carpet, even if nothing of particular note is going on, it will actually keep speeding up to the point where it will completely stop. as in, the roller will stop spinning, and its quite annoying, particularly because the specific carpet in my case, that im talking about, doesnt even seem that thick or anything. it just randomly bogs itself down until it stops. seems like a pretty bad issue. but thankfully, in my case, after changing the software settings on its sensitivity to the lowest, and ALSO moving the "switch" on the carpet head to the one that allows the most airflow, it doesnt happen anymore. so im basically a happy camper. BUT, i could definitely see these changes not actually helping if your carpet is thick or "weird" enough. whats not in the options, is the ability to turn off the adapting system. that would be very helpful for people with this kind of carpet.its also not that light. i was hoping it would be lighter, and of course the battery is going to be heavy and theres not much you can do that other than completely innovating a new type of battery (which people are working on), i still thought it would be lighter even without the battery. but its not a big deal.the only thing its missing is automatic drive (so it will push itself, mostly for older folks). and again, i understand thats a mostly unreasonable ask because were talking about a battery operated device here. it just sucks because, if it had that, theres pretty much nothing it doesnt do, and very well. i have a golden retriever, and for anyone in the know about these doggos, their hair shedding is among the worst, at least for its type. i honestly didnt believe the anti-tangle brush would work - but it does! it has not tangled a single time yet, and ive put it through its paces in spite of only having it a few months so far.still likely the best vacuum in existence right now. if you need the best, and dont have extra thick carpet, dont even look further - especially if you have a dog.

We've had the "Dyson V-15 Detect" vacuum for about three weeks. Our carpeting is 25 years old. For the past 25 years we've been vacuuming with a high end, very popular vacuum cleaner. We believed it was doing an excellent job. Since my wife has been using the Dyson V-15 Detect, it has been pulling a substantial amount of very fine hair, dirt and dust each use. Now, after 7 to 9 cleaning sessions we are amazed at how soft and cushioney the carpet has become. We honestly believe this junk the Dyson is removing had slowly, over the years, caused the carpet to become stiff with very little cushioning effect; so slowly, in fact, that the dirty firmness unknowingly had become the norm. Now when walking on it, the carpeting has once again become amazingly soft and cushiony... like new again. What else can I say? We're extremely satisfied.TWO WEEKS LATER: Our carpets are now amazingly soft and cushiony; same as brand new. Thought you would like to know.

My old Dyson stopped working so I got this one. It took a little bit of getting used to, there are many more functions than my old Dyson had. The battery life is great compared to the old one. It is very easy to wind around the house and going under furniture. I am still trying to figure out what setting I need to be on to not suck up my throw rugs. It has worked well on hard floors and my rugs I just need to stay away from the edges.

This is , without doubt , the most powerful vacuum cleaner (corded or cordless) that I have ever used , period.This model is a little heavier than I would like . My wife would have trouble using it because of it , so I do vacuum time , lol.After a few months of using it , I never have had to use the maximum power at all and just the medium setting is way more than sufficient .Otherwise , it is magnificent . It also looks great and very importantly , the sound it makes when working is very pleasing , which I like very much .Emptying it is great , with no residue left while doing it . It is clear that a lot of time and effort was invested on the design of this thing .In summary , it is an expensive machine but if you don`t mind the weight (on this model) , it is well worth it .I hope with proper care for it , it would last me for many years .
