If the main direct-drive head is a little too large for smaller carpet jobs, no problem. The V6 Absolute also comes with the range’s motorised mini turbobrush head, ideal for steps, stairs and smaller cleaning tasks like the sofa. Accessories – Dyson accessories are as sturdy as their vacuums when it comes to removing dust, dirt and allergens. See our shortlist of the best cordless vacuums to find one that's great value for money. 5. Recycle your old vacuum for free If anything, Dyson is a little conservative in its run-time claims and we managed over 21 minutes using just the crevice and brush tool, dropping to a reasonable seven minutes in max power mode.

Dyson Supersonic – this hair dryer has an intelligent heat control for shine. It also features the Dyson digital motor which spins on average 6 times faster than other hair dryer motors at one inaudible frequency – yet is a third of the weight. Models in the same range (eg the V15 Detect range or the V11 range) usually have the same core machine – the only difference is the accessories and supplied floor heads. It's also worth remembering that having multiple accessories can be more of a hindrance than a help, especially when storing them, which is another reason not to splash out on a model with expensive extras unless you're sure you need them. This reduces weight in the hand and keeps things simple, but also means you have just one charge-worth of cleaning before needing a three to three and half hour re-charge.Closely-spaced, carbon fiber bristles gave the DC59 the upper hand with fine debris on hard floors. While they weren't the best for agitating small debris on mid-pile carpet, the DC59's excellent suction helped to make up some of the difference. Colin West McDonald/CNET Fans – Dyson fans have no blade and choppy air, they are also safe, easy to clean, features a sleep timer and comes with a remote control. The max power button lights up to remind you that you are in max power mode, just in case you missed the additional suction power and very high-speed/high pitched motor noise.

There are some brilliant Dyson vacuums out there, but we've also found worthy alternatives from other brands, including much cheaper options. The motor is housed inside the brush-bar for belt-free drive and the bar itself can be removed with two coin-turn clips for tool-free cleaning.

Heating – the Dyson Hot+Cool fan features a fast even room heating and powerful personal heating as well as the jet focus control. Today, Dyson has over 1,000 engineers and about 70,000 employees all over the world from Malmesbury to Malaysia and Chicago to Singapore. The company has also recently invested in a purpose-built motors facility in Singapore where its main purpose is to precision-manufacture each Dyson digital motor, which is the key technology at the heart of the newest Dyson machines. The trigger on/off switch means you tend to switch-off while moving between areas, but is Dyson’s claimed 20-minute run-time (14 minutes with power-tools) or the six-minute max power mode enough?Handheld Vacuums – these are powerful vacuums but light as well cord-free to clean anywhere from the home to the car. In standard mode using the direct-drive turbohead, the Absolute gave us nearly 16 minutes of cleaning time.

With our standard-sized, upright vacuums, I thought that the hard floor tests, while important for our review, were somewhat unrealistic in terms of practical, real-life application. After all, for cereal spills, you'd likely use your broom and dustpan before going to the trouble of pulling out and plugging in the vacuum cleaner. I think that the v6 would be perfect for spot cleaning in the kitchen or on any of your other hard surfaces. Given it's performance with fine debris, it would also be an excellent answer for dusty baseboards or crumbs under the cabinet. As with all appliances we review, we put the v6 through a series of rigorous tests to assess both performance and usability. Our tests are intended to mimic the characteristics of common household debris, including Fruity Cheerios, a sand and sawdust blend to simulate fine particulate debris, pet hair, and human hair, which we took from a set of hair extensions. We performed each test three times on three different surfaces, which included low-pile carpet, mid-pile carpet, and hardwood/laminate floors. We also conducted a torture test that involved bobby pins and nuts. Long-pile carpets could be an issue, though, although using the boost mode for especially shaggy rugs may solve this. Beware of the impact of the super-power boost mode on the battery life though, as it's been noted that constant use can take it down to just six minutes.

Now that doesn’t sound a lot but, without wishing to blow smoke up Dyson’s crevice nozzle, when a cordless cleaner delivers this much suction you don’t need a lot of time. Moreover the trigger switch mechanism means you won’t have it running when moving from area to area or moving furniture to clean behind, so its run time is all genuine cleaning time. You won’t be left wanting for cleaning tools with the V6 Absolute, either. The main floorhead, to be used on the funky metallic pinky-purple coloured extension tube, is Dyson’s direct-drive turbobrush head. Dyson vacuum cleaners have become some of the most highly sought-after items in the home thanks to their excellent build quality, suction power, and eye-catching design.
