Dyson V15 Detect Pro​ Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

Yes I have a good corded vacuum that really sucks, but I have to use an extension cord to get around the house and it isn't very nimble. I also have a cheap cordless that had pretty good reviews, and that is okay for surface debris but it isn't very strong, especially the carpet brush, which slows down. But this V15 pulled so much dirt out of the carpet I had to empty it quite a few times while I vacuumed the Entire House, including under the couch, bed, tables, places the big corded vacuum won't go...it is very nimble. Fortunately it empties easily, I just emptied it outside on the grass (well country living has benefits). Otherwise I think I would cut a piece of cardboard to put over a waste basket, cut a hole in it, and empty it that way to avoid dust. I had to use the second battery only half way through this process. I have a mix of carpet and ceramic tile floors, and the Auto Suck feature adjusts between them, not bogging down on the carpet or wasting too much energy on the smooth floor. It is manually adjustable if you don't like Auto Suck. I bought a 3rd party flexible hose (6') to clean difficult places easier. I used the short power bar thing on the car seats and carpet which worked well. Pricey unit, and I put it off a long time, but I rather like it. Note: The V15 Pro model Doesn't have the laser in front like the V15 cheaper one, so no light at all... Too many models and features to keep track of.

This vacuum is amazing! I have the V15 detect pro. The suction is so strong that I use it on the middle setting for my area rugs. They are old family oriental rugs and thinner than new area rugs. So I just use it on the medium setting otherwise they just pull the area rugs up from the floor. When my grandchildren come over they want to vacuum! That is worth the price of the vacuum! I have an older V8 and I have them use that. I bought the newer V15 to see if it had even more suction. I tried it and WOW! I have a Taiwaneese rug that is very thick with a ton of knots per square inch. It works wonder on the rug! The only thing that will ruin that rug is if dust and diet get farther down into the rug. I vacuumed it with the V8 and then with the V15. Lots more dust and dirt came out with the V15. What a machine! I recommend it.

I love this cordless vacuum! Love that I can move about the entire house without stopping to unplug, what a time saver. Love the way the suction adjusts as needed. Was easy to attach vacuum holder/charger to the wall. Does not take up much room. Empties super easy. My home is 2,600 square feet with hardwood, wall to wall carpet in guest rooms and a few large areas rugs. I’ve been able to vacuum the entire house on 1 battery, but did need to empty the bin once. It's so easy and quick to grab and vacuum I'll just do it more often so the bin will need to be emptied once I'm done.

LIKES: it sweeps carpet, tile and vinyl flooring well; it's not too noisy; there's no cord or hose to deal with; it reduced sweep time by 1/3; it sweeps better than the old gear; it's pretty easy to clean the unit; it fluffs up carpet whereas old gear mashed it down. DISLIKES: uncomfortable trigger grip for operation -- on/off switch would be a lot better; 4.5 hour battery recharge time; have to find someplace to hang it; no second charging dock included though a second battery was. The unit uses lots of plastic and it's unknown how it will hold up. Downloadable documentation is sufficient if a bit minimalist. This unit replaced a corded Miele upright and a central vac for the house and does a better job in less time with less effort. Overall, I am impressed. This is a good product and have no regrets about the purchase. EDIT I have some parts issues and it looks like Dyson parts are always on backorder? Hard to recommend a product that the manufacturer apparently can't support. 2nd EDIT Wand fit is now kind of loose and getting worse. It won't pick up debris on a tile floor with the standard sweeper attachment. Now it's necessary to attach the quick-cleanup attachment instead. It seems to be self destructing, and for a product at this price level, that's both surprising and unacceptable. While there's quite a bit to like here, it's darned pricey if it won't last even 6 months of use one time per week. I can no longer recommend this product.

Love my Dyson. It's light and versatile. The battery lasts for almost an hour. I purchased a second one, and I barely use it. It leaves everything spotless.

I almost did not buy this as our last Dyson died. It would not hold a charge. But reviews consistently gave this Dyson sterling reviews. I have not used it a lot yet but the few times have, indeed, been very good. The jury is out on its durability and longevity

The top of the vacuum head is heavy. It makes the head hard to swivel at some angles. In fact, at many angles the head does not swivel easily. But for the amount of money we have spent in the last year buying other vacuums, we should have stayed with what we knew worked. This vacuum picks up dirt, dust, fine hairs from my head, etc. It should have come with the lock to make the vacuum stay on while using it. Amazingly you can order that part separately. Quiet. you can hear suction power change as needed. It doesn't have a light on the brush head. 2 batteries! 2 chargers!

Do it. This thing SUCKS in the best way possible!! It'll suck the demons out of your upholstery. But seriously, I was between this and the V12 because of the weight (I had a V7 previously) and I'm so glad I went with this. I'm a 130lbs woman with fairly weak wrists but I had no issue doing a 30+ minute session. There is no fluffy optics head but Im not ever worried because this one did hardwood & carpets beautifuly !! And you don't have to mess with changing any heads. The amount of dust and particles it sucked out of my already clean LOOKING living space is insane (looks can be deceiving!).
