Dyson V15 Detect (page 2 of 4)

As per most product reviewers I read the reviews of potential buys, reviewing the pros and cons before proceeding

Just like to address some of the inaccurate lower ratings, the bad suction review is very incorrect as this machine has incredible suction power, the bin emptying thing - yes you do have to do it multiple times and yes dust can get caught if you go over the max line but it’s quite easy emptying it, it really depends on how much dust your home produces. We have two dogs and two kids so dog hair and toddlers dropping food is a consta

I've been using my Dyson Big Ball Cinetic Animal for the last few years, alongside an earlier model of the lightweight Dyson stick. Treated myself to an upgrade just recently and cannot believe the amount of dust, fluff and hair that the Dyson V15 Absolute Detect actually sucks up! I usually vacuum twice a week, as we have a fleece coated Groodle and also live on the coast, so the windows and doors are open most days to allow the delicious sea breeze indoors. But this brings with it the dust and pollens from the surrounding bushland. I thought

Buying the Dyson V15 has been an expensive mistake! Emptying it is such a chore, it certainly doesn’t fall out easily like in the Dyson promotional videos. Every time I attempt to empty it, it involves banging it several times on the wheely bin, resulting in dust flying in my face (great for my allergies and defeating the point of having a HEPA filter), and then having to manually remove the hidden pockets of fluff and hair clogged in the nooks and crannies with my hand - it’s disgusting!

But to be honest I don’t have to worry about emptying

If you have alot of natural light in your house you wont even see the laser. Much prefer my outsize

Looking at the demonstration video I now understand why, when using the laser head to highlight the dust, they vacuum in a forward direction. When you push the unit forward and then pull it backwards, like when you normally vacuum, the light highlights the dust that hasn't been vacuumed up by the unit. It's a gimmick and doesn't do the job.
I tested it out by using my soft fibre mop (approx $30) and then using the laser light head (Dyson unit $1400). The soft fibre dry mop did a way better job.
The Dyson works well on carpet but it's not wor

It does the job but the way its design it gave me a blister in two spots.

We brought the V15 Dyson stick about 6 months ago and it works a treat. It has an electronic screen that counts your dust (not exactly sure why someone would want to count the dust particles in their house though) - but it does do the job. It automatically adjusts depending if you are picking up big dust or little dust so it saves battery life. It only works hard when it needs to. I also have changed my vacuuming routine and vacuum in the dark at night. This sounds rather weird but this is when the green laser light works best and you can see e

The vacuum does a very good job, but two attachments from the old model are no longer in the new V15 Absolute model. I was also told the battery recharge time was 20 minutes. Turns out that it is 3.5hrs, so I am really disappointed at the misinformation provided by the sales rep. Also, really disappointed that the price is $200 more expensive than 9 months ago when two additional attachments were available. I feel as though Dyson are perhaps gouging based on their reputation in a similar way to Apple. If you are going to charge the premium price, then the item should have all the inclusions as standard. I do not want to have to spend another $100 on additional accessories so I can enjoy the full functionality of a price inflated product.

After hearing many mixed reviews on the Dyson V15 we decided to buy one and test it out. We have carpet and timber floors in our house so we new this stick vacuum was going to get a run for it’s money.
All I can say is wow, it is so easy to use, glides alone on our timber floors. The multiple heads give us the option to interact depending on the area needing cleaning. I was sceptical that this Dyson would actually be sufficient for our big house but the battery time allows us to clean the whole house before we need to recharge. Best decision we made was buying this product. I actually enjoy vacuuming now and the barrel makes it really easy to empty. We would highly recommend this product.

We use it on tiles, carpet and rugs. It cleans all surfers well as it’s does have three different levels. Also love the Gen laser on the other attachment. Good

Easy to use and cleans any type of floor well. Strong suction and decent battery life as well. Have been using for over a year and have experienced no issues yet.Would recommend

We use this on both carpet and marble floors and the results are outstanding.
Make cleaning floors much faster and stairs are easy.
I like how light the unit is and how long the battery lasts.
Would Highly recommend!!!!!

The V15 is so handy, I use it multiple times a day and it never lets me down, fantastic on both tiles and carpet, the handy dust detector light is a great feature. Really makes light work of it. Wouldn’t be without it.

It’s simple to use, practical, Long lasting and sucks harder than a blower fish. The filter is super easy to clean and to empty the basket is a breeze. I also love the stand as its much sleeker and looks less messy. I wouldn’t go with other fake brands on the market.

Aside from the fact Dyson has always done a pretty great vacuum cleaner, their customer service is amazing. My toddlers have broken my V15 not once but twice in 3 weeks. The ladies at the costumer service centre are brilliant. Parts were shipped out quickly and their face time call they do to troubleshoot the problem is next level service. My vacuum is awesome for cleaning up after 5 kids, it's easy to charge and goes a long way one a charged battery. I wish I switched to a cordless vacuum long ago, especially a brand as good as dyson

Initially I was unsure whether to buy another Dyson due to previous bad experience with the quality from the day of purchase.
However, I’m now happy we did go ahead with it. The vacuum cleaner is very easy to use, charges fast and can’t be used for a long time before the next charge. The children use it on a regular basis meaning it’s light and smooth enough even for the little helpers. It’s also easy to use on all different floor surfaces, which mean mum and dad can keep the house clean even during the mid-week chaos and rush really easy. The

Pricey but worth it. Best stick vacuum i have ever used. Very powerful and easy to use great suction, light and nimble. Warranty is decent but could be better. Highly recommended.

So far this is the best stick vacuum performance wise from Dyson.
It has a great power boost when you need it and it works great on most surfaces.
It’s suction is excellent in the 5 months i’ve been using it.
The bin is easy to empty and the attachments are handy.
The only things i’m not happy with are the lights on the hard floor attachment work on one side only and the bristles on the smaller attachments bend.

I used it on carpet and hard floors. The auto detect chip can tell whats what, very clever! With proper maintenance and cleaning, itll last years. Comes with heaps of attachments too! I used all my tax refund for the Ferrari of the vacuum world! I have 3 cats and a wife that all shed like crazy, and live in a 2 bedroom carpeted apartment so i needed something with serious juice. Previously i had the Pet Pro and it was garbage so i was sceptical about a $1500 Vacuum. Boy was I wrong. I'm guessing you stopped reading already so ill just say YES I

I am disappointed with my V15. It is fantastic when it works - which is only a couple of times a week. I returned it to Dyson within a month of receiving it and phone customer service every month to say I am not happy - they suggest cleaning the filter. The filter needs washing every couple of days and takes at least 24-48 to dry before it can be used again. The battery does not last very long when vacuuming carpets and the canister needs emptying 4-5 times per room in my house - which is tedious and drops dust around the bin. I don't think it

We have 16sq/m of floor boards only.
PROS - Laser.
CONS - Laser as it identifies everything it missed on pass 1, 2 and at times 3, and that's on Boost mode. Don't waste your time with Med or Eco.
SUCTION IS TERRIBLE.
Can't get too far under beds.
I only get 2/3 though the house and the battery is dead.
It takes me 3 times longer to vacuum our house thsn it did with the Wertheim vac.
This thing is an overpriced, over rated boat anchor, and I doubt it's any good at that either.

Disclaimer: I am a long-term Dyson fan, having had many Dyson vacuum cleaners, and I rate their customer service as the very best. I bought this vacuum cleaner to replace my Dyson DC23 Animal as I was fed up of cords and hoses, and I thought this was now ready to replace a mains-operated one. I was wrong. I have two border collies who live in and out of the house, and I have found the bin to be far too small, as it is full after one room. Furthermore, there is also much hair and dust stuck behind/above the rubber seal in the bin, and I constant

My new Dyson arrived 2 days ago and I can not believe how good it is. I will admit it weighs a little more than I had expected, so it gives you a bit of a workout when using it (especially on carpet), but the amount of dust, hair and dirt it picks up is better than any other vacuum I've ever used... even my old Dyson. The battery only lasted me about 40 minutes after using it on both timber and carpet flooring, so I have just purchased another battery to be able to rotate between the 2 so that I can clean the entire 3 level house in 1 go. I
