Customer Reviews for Dyson - V15 Detect Absolute Cordless Vacuum - Gold

Overall Performance
This vacuum delivers impressive suction power, consistent with what one would expect from Dyson. It effectively cleans various surfaces and offers ease of maneuverability, making it suitable for everyday cleaning tasks.
Battery Life Concerns
Despite its strong suction capabilities, the vacuum's battery life is disappointing. During use, the battery drained in less than 20 minutes while cleaning a single, average-sized level with hardwood floors. For reference, the home is not particularly large, highlighting a notable limitation in operating time.
Trigger Mechanism and User Comfort
The vacuum utilizes a trigger activation system. While this is manageable for some users, it can be cumbersome for individuals with limited grip strength. For example, those who experience difficulty with wrist or hand strength may find it challenging to hold the trigger during extended cleaning sessions. As a result, this model may not be ideal for users with strength limitations in their hands or wrists.
Attachments and Floor Compatibility
The included attachments perform well across most surfaces. However, the vacuum is not recommended for shag carpets. Even when reducing the suction power, the vacuum head proves difficult to move on such surfaces, limiting its versatility for homes with high-pile carpeting.
Ease of Maneuverability and Accessibility
While the vacuum is generally easy to maneuver, accessing hard-to-reach areas, such as beneath beds with a six-inch clearance, remains somewhat challenging.

Heavy and not easiest to empty. Vacuums really well but on heavier side for a stick one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This model does not compare with my first model.
Heavy, does not pick up well unless it's on the highest setting, and there is no on / off switch

I bought this a few weeks ago and can’t believe how much better it vacuums compared to past purchased vacuums over the last 40 years. I haven’t seen anything compared to this V15. I do wish every attachment had the green light. The green light further illuminates the dust particles on the ground ensuring nothing is missed. Incredible vacuum!

Seems like auto sometimes stops the brush from spinning when on rugs. Not sure auto is so great.

I’ve had the unit for about 3 weeks. Does a great job overall. The green laser light to show dirt on the hardwood floors is eye opening! My only complaint is that it is a bit hard to get the longer tube off too get to the short crevice tool and brush.
