Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Multicolor

This is my third Dyson. I first bought one for my retail store, a V8. Then I bought a V8 animal for home. We had the extended warranty and had to replace the V8, so about 2 years in we got a brand new V10 vacuum. That was a great upgrade back then but unfortunately the battery still died on that one before the new extended warranty went out, so they gave me a gift card for that one. I think my staff just didn't know how to use a Dyson. In the meantime I had mastered using our V8 animal but the battery life was just not enough for our house. Then we moved to a bigger house and I insisted we had to get a new Dyson. So our V8 animal has retired to a small office space that we keep in our other store. It is great for small jobs but only lasts about 20 minutes. I ended up doing a bunch of research on Dyson's and picked the new v15 with extra attachments. I also purchased the aftermarket hose. I am so happy with my purchase that I can't shut up about my vacuum. I'm sure people think I'm crazy but I have already picked up over 5 million particles, including vacuuming out the keyboards of the computers, and repeatedly vacuuming the same carpet until the dust count goes down dramatically. You would not believe the fine microscopic particles that this thing picks up. It is ridiculously powerful and lasts so long that I can vacuum the new house and go back to any areas that I want to pay extra attention to until the battery dies. I have even taken this vacuum back to the store that used to have one and vacuumed after a traditional vacuum and the difference is night and day. The carpet looks almost brand new rather than the gray dingy that the traditional vacuum leaves it looking like. I am now going to have to find a solution for that store because I can't part with my v15 and it is kind of pricey for staff to use. But I am so happy with it. The only drawback I see for this model is it is a little tricky emptying the container. On my V8 animal when you released the container it dumped out the compartment, and I could open and close it a couple times to get it to fully empty any long hairs and stuff. This one you do have to use your fingers sometimes to get the stuff out. I also noticed the edge suction on the floor attachment is not quite as good as my V8 animal, but it still gets the job done it just might take a couple passes sometimes to get anything close to the baseboards. I'm still really happy with it, definitely five stars for me. I should have been taking pictures of the crud I've been vacuuming, I'll try to add some. My cleaning days are definitely not over with this beast on the job. Read more

Our old stick vacuum not performing as we had hoped it would, so we started shopping around for a replacement. After much research, I decided on this Dyson model V15 Detect. It was quite expensive compared to most other choices for a replacement. However, You get what you pay for! This machine is by far the best stick vacuum we have ever had. It came with several accessories including one for rugs/carpets and one for hardwood/tile floors. They work excellently! Love how a green light on the hardwood floor attachment actually shows the dust and dirt that your eye misses! Even though it comes with a single battery, we have yet to run it completely down with one use (light touch up with 5-6 hardwood rooms and four rooms with carpet or rugs! The battery can be charging all the time when not in use without building a memory or harming the machine. It is far more powerful than any of our previous machines and easy to empty and care for. We use this for most of our vacuuming needs and use our Kirby for the heavy duty, twice-a-year vacuuming of carpets and rugs! I mentioned before, great performance but pricey. If it lasts for a long time I will consider it a good value! I will update if any issues come up. Read more

Love that I can see the dirt as I vacuum my hard floors. I agree with another reviewer this is like the Swiss watch of vacuums. The attachments are very useful cleaning more than just floors. Read more

I have to admit that I did not have a great opinion of Dyson before I decided to take a chance and purchase this product. I always felt their products were wayyy overpriced. But I needed to by a new vacuum and decided to give this particular Dyson model a chance because I’m tired of buying vacuums that clog and jam up with debris. Also, this is the first cordless product I have purchased and the suction power is amazing! Better than any vacuum I ever had before! The design of this device actually convinced me to give it a try. There are no twisting hoses where debris can get clogged and trapped. It is a straight pipe that dumps right into the dust bin! Extremely efficient and easy to clean! It also comes with a ton of attachments that make this vacuum extremely versatile! For example, now I have a vacuum that I can use in my car! It is a little heavy to carry as a handheld but that is a trade off I will gladly accept in return for the suction power and features and multiple attachments & uses that come with this device. That old saying: You get what you pay for! Applies here. Yes, it is a bit pricey but if it does the job and lasts then the price is worth it! I never thought I would get excited about a vacuum but the design and technology built into this product does it for me! Read more

I've had this vacuum for almost 3 years now and am still amazed at how well it cleans. The auto speed adust does the work for you. And the laser brush head makes vacuuming in the dark like a game! One thing to note is that it is top heavy because that's where the mechanics are, so your hand may start to cramp after a while. Read more
