This is almost the perfect vacuum. It cleans well, offers numerical stats on cleaning, and it easy enough to use. If it had a bigger discard dirt chamber and had an on/off switch… it would get a 5 star review.
Okay, let's talk about the Dyson V15 Detect. It's the Rolls Royce of vacuum cleaners, except instead of plush leather seats, it has a laser beam. A LASER BEAM! This sucker illuminates the microscopic dust particles lurking on your floors like some kind of CSI: Dust Edition. I'm not sure how Dyson measures invisible dust, but I'm pretty sure my previous vacuum was operating under the assumption that if you can't see it, it doesn't exist. I thought my hardwood floors were reasonably clean, but it revealed I was living in a microscopic dust jungle. The digital display on the V15 gamifies vacuuming. It shows you what particles you're sucking up – dust mites, pollen, pet dander, the hopes and dreams of failed dust bunnies…it's satisfying to watch. The Dyson V15 Detect is an investment. You could probably buy a small car for the price of this thing, but the thrill of hunting down invisible dust with a laser beam is WORTH IT!
