Detect light and maneuverability are great, but battery life is unimpressive, the small back wheels on the detect head jam with pet hair too easily and it's difficult to remove, the anti-tangle comb head regularly bogs down because it can't get enough power/torque, and the debris disposal mechanism works poorly -- I have to open/close it repeatedly to try to clear it and I usually need to pull out hair/debris with my hands or even use another vacuum to fully remove the hair/debris.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Had the V12 and I loved it. The V15 has a larger canister and a longer run time which is nice. The problem with the V15 is that the suction is too much that I can’t even vacuum the carpet with the auto setting. I have to use on Eco. I’ve looked online and many others have the same issue. Something is wrong with the design.

I bought this a month ago. It’s gamified my cleaning regime. It’s powerful and does a great job removing dust and cat hair from our concrete and softwood floors. Does a decent job on carpets too. Because it makes cleaning more fun, I find myself running the vacuum more often. Very pleased with how it cleans.
I upgraded from a v8 to this v15. It definitely lasts much longer on a charge which is a nice plus. We had to google how to insert the longer piece into the handle as it’s a bit tricky. Because of the longer battery life it is heavier on my wrist. This does cause me some discomfort. I’m a senior with arthritis. I bought this online so didn’t think about this issue. It is a very good vacuum and I highly recommend it just not for me. I will find another lighter weight one. It will be a Dyson though. This was my 4th one and they are well made.
The cordlesss V15 is a game changer!! And the laser light is such a bonus!! I feel our house if so much cleaner bc of the ease of vacuuming (cordlessness!!) and the laser light illuminating the dirt and hair. We’ve got two big hairy dogs!!
