- Damn, what a great machine! Absolutely can replace your corded mains powered vacuum. This is a 6-month update review of my Dyson Cyclone V10. This isn’t a paid-for or sponsored review, I bought this with my own money, and I reviewed it of my own accord. Receipt is here to prove it: • My receipt for Dyson V10 .

1. • Vacuum Cleaner Suction... - Why you can get deep cleaning even in low power mode
The next version of the Dyson V10 (i.e. the V11) has been reviewed on my channel here: ua-cam.com/video/Wk-1d8T0mmY/v-deo.html
We bought dyson v10 and we are so happy and contented with it. We never regretted buying it despite the price. It is worth your money. It cleans the carpet so well and removes the deepest dirt.
I also have a Dyson V10 for more than 8 months. Totally satisfie. No need for an extra battery. With a complete load, I do my entire house (3 storeys). It's so easy to use, that we almost never use our central vacuum or vacuum cleaner with power cord. Highly recommended.
Why am I watching vac facts in bed at 2am?
You secretly yearn to learn something? ha
@@VacuumFacts I think you may be right there!
This video should be sponsored. I’ve been on the fence on buying one, up until this video I’ve seen many other reviews. And right this very moment you just finally convinced me that I should indeed get it. This is a great accurate and realistic review! Thanks so much!
Yeah, I made this video because YT was polluted with utter rubbish. No one was saying what needed to be said, they'd all clearly been gifted one for free, and none of them seemed to have the slightest clue about what was important. Nothing worth respecting about much of the content out there. So as the old saying goes, if you want something doing right, do it yourself.
Vacuum Facts your very helpful thanks so much ! Another review after a few months ? 😁
We bought the V10 a week ago. Absolutely brilliant!!
Yeah I still think it's the best vacuum I've ever used and makes the chore of cleaning easier than anything I've used before
Just bought the dyson v10 Cyclone Absolute,it is fantastic,ran it on the second setting did my 2 bedroom flat,hallway,kitchen & bathroom,no problem.
I like how you point out your dislikes. I just got this vacuum and love it. But the one annoying thing is the "accidental" hitting of the trigger. I wish they added like a main cut off switch. But other than that, I'm really liking this vacuum cleaner.
There are good reasons why they don't (discussed in the main V10 and V11 reviews). You can easily avoid accidentally hitting the trigger but putting your finger to the side as I showed in the V11 review at about 12:08 in ua-cam.com/video/Wk-1d8T0mmY/v-deo.html.
Literally just unboxed and now waiting for it to charge. I had the corded Dyson and loved it. Hopeful after your review this new one will be a good replacement. Thank you for the review!
Pam, you will love it!
This is literally a respite from bringing your old Vaccume cleaner from the closet. The cleaner is lightweight, and very easy to use. The suction is phenomenal and it sucks out all the dust from my carpet that i am aware of and also all that i am not aware of. Very easy to use and very easy to setup.
Great video.smooth listening
My Dyson DC39 Animal still works just as well as the day I got it many years ago.
But when it finally breaks I’ll get a Dyson Cyclone Animal vacuum. Will probably be on Cyclone V16 by then and batteries and everything else will be much better 👍
I just bought one 2 months ago & I absolutely LOVE IT!! I am a "Cordless" fanatic with anything & everything that normally calls for corded use. Especially my power tools, but even they have moved up to corded power in jobs performance. Like you mentioned, it's so much easier to grab & vac much more often & don't mind doing it due to how easy & convenient it is. Thanks for video!!
Ha try telling that to some people. Yesterday I had my head bitten off for even suggesting such a convenient reality is true.
@@VacuumFacts You will always have the trolling bastards. They can piss all off!! Most who complain don't even own one!! They can't afford it or just don't want to pay up for a "Premium" vacuum. I purchased a Dyson DC65 many years ago & what a difference that made from an upgrade of a Hoover POS I owned previously.
I still have the DC65 stored away, but I may donate it to charity.
Been watching Dyson's cordless line & every generation getting better than the rest, but I was slightly turned off due to the very small bin, short run times on & lower suction on the earlier models. I almost bought the V8, but it was not a "Priority" for me, but when the V10' came out, the reviews that I watched were well worth the price & the specs were much more attractive to me. Also the "Cordless" sold me on this. So I got a great deal on mine & again, I love it!! The emptying of the bin is so nice & much more sanitary than any vacuum I have ever used.
Yes I am excited over a very nice vacuum!!
Price is definitely a factor. Not everyone can afford one unfortunately. I only just could. I do have sympathy for those who couldn't. I'm sure if they were gifted one they'd eventually like it. Next generation of cordless I predict will introduce a new form of battery technology that will mark a shift for consumer products. Solid state battery which will charge much faster and hold much more charge. Around early 2020.
I have this machine and it is incredible. Medium setting is plenty of power for everything including deep cleaning.
Yeah. I showed recently that low power achieves the same deep-cleaning results as medium: ua-cam.com/video/invDAB1EOgI/v-deo.html
I have dc29 10 years on! Still never lost suction and done tons of hard work, got v6 few years ago and changed my life in a busy household forever, but unfortunately battery let me down 4 times, but it was a first model and I am not going to criticise because it was still amazing, atm I am still using dc29 but I miss cordless as I have lots of stairs
I am going to get v10 absolute or v11 absolute as i have 50/ 50 carpets/ wooden floors and what I gathered from good reviews fluffy head is a must for hard floors
I really appreciate great technology and always thumbs up to people who are not afraid of changing the world for better, inventing wonderful things,and making mums lifes easier👍🤗
I would always recommend dyson
As is it brilliant
Hi, thanks for the comment. What was wrong with the battery? Did it break, or did it not last long enough for you? If it broke, Dyson would have replaced it under warranty. If it was out of warranty, they still provide the batteries for you fairly inexpensively. I never had any issues at all with my battery.
Thank you for the video. I appreciate your straight up opinion of the Dyson Cyclone V10. I will be purchasing one soon.
Fantastic review bud. Nice work. V10 Absolute is on sale in Australia tomorrow and i'm buying it based on your review. Thanks mate.
Wow. 6 month update! Thank you! Can you also make a video on taking care of and maintaining the dyson to protect the investment?
That's pretty much in the video. Empty the bin and rinse the filter. That's it. If the brush bars have hair (which mine never have because it seems to self clean somehow), cut it off.
I have a Dyson V8 absolute and love the thing. The only time I ever use max mode is after a vacuum session. I dump the bin, close it, and run it for a few seconds on Max mode to loosen up any remaining debris and then re-empty it. these machines work incredibly well and the engineering is top-notch.
Very good 6 month follow-up review. I have the V7, and find it excellent with it being very occasionally used on my sisal carpet; so, I’d like to own the V10. However, as we had discussed, the leading carpet manufacturer websites will tell you that motorised brush roll heads should not be used on loop pile carpets, such as berber and sisal. The V series of vacuum cleaners do not come with a suction-only head. Dave, Australia
Dyson v6 was great. My cleaning lady bought the used V6. Picked up the V8 which is even better than my v6, which I liked and used for years. Personally, I’m so pleased with the V8 that the V10 will have to wait. I’ll put it on a wish list.
Save up for the next year and get a V12
I completely agree about the die hard old fashioned upright vacuum people who hate Dyson just because it's Dyson. I was getting sick of my bulky upright and googled Dyson V10 reviews, on the vacuum sub of Reddit almost everyone said all Dysons are absolute junk and to never buy them. Well I decided to buy one anyway and it's life changing, I actually find it fun to vacuum now and it's crazy to see what it picks up from the carpet compared to my old vacuum. I'm glad I didn't listen to the naysayers because now the carpet in my apartment has never been cleaner along with the upholstery. I understand there are the occasional people who get duds that stop working after a short time but that's the case with pretty much every vacuum out there.
What's really important is to contrast what was said by those people and actual reality. It's important to identify the properties and behaviour of those who were naysayers-namely, a lack of credible evidence-and forever blacklist anyone who shows similar behaviour. This entire channel is dedicated to countering the disgusting behaviour of people like that, in this case, the rabid 'vacuum enthusiast' community, who have been nothing short of disgusting here. Their general behaviour is consistent with the undereducated who show right-leaning and racist tendencies based on the vile and disgusting comments I've had over the years. Identify people who behave like that and ensure their influence is reduced to zero.
On the technology side, the V10 remains better than any copycat clone I've tested, which is astonishing. A lot of progress has been made since the V10 too, and the next generation of their cordless looks quite radically different.
I´ve just ordered this after seeing only positive reviews. However, they should provide an extra battery that could sit in the charge dock so if I do a massive, two-hour cleaning, it would simplify things.
I guess. But no one does massive two hour cleans. Good and modern vacuuming practice that's much faster and less tiring is to do a couple of rooms a time. Bite-sized, easier, practical. This way the battery never runs out, no matter how big your house is. It's so much easier now with this thing and tiring mega weekly cleans just don't happen anymore. This toy is quite the revolution.
So far so good with this vacuum. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.
If your comment was suggesting its performance is low, the data shows this is not true. Its cleaning capability is comparable to a mains machine. The subsequent V11, V15, and Gen5Detect models improved on this and have now achieved better performance than mains machines. It's worth reflecting on why you peddled falsehoods when facts were available.
Bought today. Super excited to try it.
I just got one as they didn't have the v8, so delighted its amazing!!! Great video !
I’ve just purchased my v10 Absolute and glad I finally made the decision to invest in Dyson. Well made series on this vac. My only wish is that the Absolute + was available for the additional attachments, I’m vertically challenged lol.
You can buy the attachments on Dyson website
I just bought a V10. My advice, Just buy it. This thing SUCKS, it will be pulling things out of your carpet you didn't even think existed. I've used carpet cleaners that don't even suck this hard, The V10 quite literally suctions to your carpet. Battery Life could be a tad better @ Max, but, still a great Vaccum. The quality is great too, Over-all, I would give it a 9.5/10. .5 off due to the fact you can't interchange batteries, so if you have a larger carpet area to clean, it might take a bit longer, but over-all still an amazing unit.
Is it expensive? Yes, but, my saying is, buy it nice, or buy it twice. I've spent thousands on Vacuums over the years that constantly broke, and NONE of them have cleaned my carpets this good.
Max mode is intended to clean spot messes where initial dirt concentrations are high. This cleans faster, but not better over time. Normal soiling levels are most efficiently addressed on mode 1, with heavy messes on mode 2. Max is just for a knocked-over plant pot or something. You get at least 30 minutes cleaning efficiently. You also don't add to battery pollution with the need for a second battery like cheap knock-off brands.
What a great review! Thank you so much!
Great summary Johnny. I purchased a V10 Absolute (one from the top variation) and we have been thrilled with it. I used to really dislike emptying my V6 unit but his one is so fast and easy in comparison. We run on "low" mode most of the time with "medium" mode on recycled indoor/outdoor tough rugs and the fluffy head as there is no pile to speak of. Works wonderfully whereas the V6 could never really get everything before, the cushiony velour fluffy head has no issues grabbing even the smallest pieces of dirt. One previous let-down with Dyson battery based units was picking up larger chunks of waste. With two dogs and a cat in house, there is always dry kibble on the floor that also embeds into the recycled carpets tightly. So for really tough jobs I used the motor head to loose and the fluffy head to grab and it's done. What took 5 minutes using a central vac with motor head now takes seconds. The biggest advantage to handheld Dyson units is the fact I no longer postpone quick cleanups til later...just grab and go. With messes gathering up previously, a weekly cleanup was a large chore, and now spot cleaning really makes the big chores smaller. In terms of battery use, I have run out of power only twice as I forgot to reduce power from Max to medium/low. Non Dyson folks may not get the main point of Dyson's advantage as they are use to brute force cleaning only. Dyson loves to design a system with max airflow created from an almost sealed floor to vacuum connection. This seal allows the spinning motor head to literally vibrate dirt and dust from carpets using less suction than a traditional vacuum. With a traditional vacuum, the majority of suction power is lost at the head to floor connection the seal is very weak. So the manufacturer compensates by increasing the motor, thus adding suction, then loses it again ass as filters and bags again restrict airflow. Dyson's previous "weakness" was picking up items like dog kibble, cereal and the occasional smashed flower pot dirt as the tight seal prevent the larger particles from entering the head...but with the V10's adjustable opening on the motor head and the simply amazing fluffy head this issue simple vanishes. There's little my V10 cannot do easier and quicker than corded systems and my central vac now.
It's interesting reading the experiences of real-world users that aren't 'vacuum enthusiasts' (aka rabid fanboys). Your opinions perfectly coincide with much of the content on my channel, including your comments on central vacs (ua-cam.com/video/80hepoNEZhM/v-deo.html ). The instant-clean grab-and-go approach is vastly superior to the old mains model of postpone until you have to do it. And bite-sizing to avoid a weekly chore mega-clean is much easier. Try telling this to the 'enthusiasts' and they'll bite your head off because you're not kissing the 10 kg Kirby's solid steel soleplate. And I agree, there's little the V10 can't do easier and quicker than a mains machine, and to the same performance level.
To cut the hair off the vacuum, use a seam ripper instead of scissors. Makes it so easy.
However you do it, you just need to be careful not to damage the product, e.g. the brush head bristles.
Mine will be delivered tomorrow. Fortunately I found 110-220v version in the States as we are planning to move back to Europe this or next year. We also bought a robotic vacuum roborock s5 which I am planning to use every other day and use dyson once a week. We had a bulky 5 years old Shark vacuum and I just did not vacuum. It was always my husband who had enough of dust and was cleaning. Dyson will definitely make our life easier.
Any good?
@@VacuumFacts roborock s5 works very good, it needs 1 minute to vacuum 1m2. Dyson V10 works perfectly. We vacuumed the carpet with shark navigator and then vacuumed the same carpet with dyson on the lowest setting and the amount of stuff it pulled out was incredible. And this shark was supposed to be soooooo good when we were buying it. Dyson pulled even more on the middle setting. I don't use the highest one because my dog does not like the high pitch sound and it hurts my ears a little but too. I love it and it is here to stay :-) I vacuum carpeted rooms one day and tiled areas the next but I'm sure i could clean everything in one charge. I also love how light it is and that it's cordless, of cleaning the house just got so much faster. I am very allergic to dust and Dyson's filter does work perfectly, I have no problem using it.
Just went out and bought it due to this video, thank you mate :)
You'll have to share whether you think it's any good :)
I bought a V10 up on my drive home from work. I've been looking for a cordless vacuum for my Toy Hauler, I don't think it will replace my household vacuum but I'll more than likely use it for small cleaning jobs around the home, as for the brief time I've used it early is pulled a lot of dirt and hair from my carpet with the motorized brush head. Which was a surprise as I have a corded Dyson already. With 150 bucks off it was a good deal.
It deals with all my big jobs now. I don't even own a mains cleaner any more. And there are videos on my channel showing how well it deep cleans right to the backing material on my deep pile carpets. Easily a mains-replacement machine.
My Dyson V6 is the best vacuum I've ever used, even compared to bigger "more powerful" units. I used to hate vacuuming because I would have to lug around the Filter Queen and it was annoying going up the steps.
Now I grab the V6 off the wall and do the living room. Then the next day I'll do the kitchen and back stairs etc.
It just works so well and is easy to use.
Yeah, that was seemingly their plan and design. Inspired. And it works! Watch everyone else copy now...again.
Well, my Roomba is my favorite vacuum, but my Dyson V10 comes in at a close second. Unfortunately the Roomba can't do stairs.
The only thing i don't like about the v10 price here in Australia $1000 i own a hand held v6 and dc33 the older dc08 and they are brilliant vacuum cleaners the v6 starting to get a bit worn out we use it the most
I cannot believe the amount of absolute hate and vitriol in the comments over a vacuum review lol. I'm sure a Walmart brand machine would honestly be adequate for the average person but this video tells you clearly and factually why a Dyson is better and how it holds up over time. 🤔😙
Yeah. There's a nasty community out there (they call themselves 'vacuum enthusiasts') who are borderline rabid, and they've got quite a few channels on YT. They've got really strong opinions that are primal in their tribalism. Unfortunately, my channel contains a lot of facts and evidence which often shows their opinions are false and as such I get a lot of mindless hate. It's sad but funny at the same time, especially all I'm doing is telling the truth and showing it.
The battery information is incorrect....ALL Li-ion batteries have a life expectancy of around 400-500 discharge/charge cycles. As the cell degrades with use/age the internal resistance increases and hence its capacity.
No it's correct; there's just far more too it than you realise. Such as how it's used in the real-world. The trigger and how that drains the battery in use is the key
@@VacuumFacts .....Listen.....I have been using 18650 hi drain li-ion batteries for over 10 years, as a hobbyist and one off product manufacturing. I have used LG, Sanyo, Sony and Samsung, I copletely understand their principles and capabilities.....and I am correct! It doesn't matter if you are talking about a Nissan Leaf, a Dyson or a mobile phone, the technology is the same. A Dyson cell pack is only good for 400-500 charge/discharge cycles!
The trigger does not drain the cells, it is the motor and circuitry that drains the cells...which has no effect on the charge/discharge cycle capability!
It is true that the number of charge-discharge cycles is determined by the chemistry, but how the batteries are used influences such rates. Battery aging and degradation is a function of other parameters too, such as temperature. Temperature is reduced with the frequent pausing and bite-sized operation of a trigger-based system. Dyson have shown formally in their laboratories that 80% of original maximum charge is retained after 15 years of equivalent usage. This is in contrast to 5 years for competitors. There may be other factors at play too, but it's far more complex than you've acknowledged (or evidenced). You can go and read the informal and unmarketed claims by Dyson in various web pages. Ultimately battery technology will be substantially different in less than 5 years anyway. Presumably your 10 years of 'experience' has made you privy to the complex physics and chemistries being developed? @@keithbaker3405
@@VacuumFacts All major manufacturers who use Li-ion cell technology all use cells that will operate within defined parameters....and you still only get 400/500 charge cycles, just look at laptop cells as another example...3-4 years and they are dickered! The physics and chemistry of Li-ion cells are not complex at all and it has not changed much in 15 years. Looking forward, graphene cell technology will be the next step....higher amperage drain and super fast charge times (flat to fully charged within 15 mins) but we wont see this technology for at least 10 years. Until then we will have to keep listening to false marketing claims!
Totally agree with every point you’ve made in This video.
Jesus Christ a lot of people hating on your review. To me it seems quite genuine. Plus it's hardly the only praise Dyson has gotten. Nice review, keep it up.
Ha thanks. The hate is just standard mindless tribalism. It's no effort to constructively fend off an entire army of that ilk. The criticisms are so weak and unevidenced, and usually end up in an ad hominem attack on me when they're called out.
As a Dyson V10 Absolute owner I confirm all the well documented points in this video. Great review! And it does an excellent job to reflect absolutely my experience with the unit. I got mine at Bed bath and beyond while it was on sale for $100 off sticker price, plus 20% off Bed Bath and Beyond In store Coupon. It was the cheapest possible offer. Don't be fooled by the Amazon convenience.
Edit: To add further, not only does this vacuum make cleaning a synch... my wife and I playfully fight to clean with it. Because it performs so well and it is so easy to maneuver, it turned vacuuming our 2400 sq/ft home plus 1000 sq/ft basement carpet from a 2 and a half hour arduous labor with few other brand corded machines to a 45 minute love affair and it collects much MUCH more than any other vacuum we tried! My wife initially thought I never emptied the container. She couldn't believe it at first.
ha yeah it's a good product. Some out there wouldn't believe it if you showed them all the evidence in the world and just hate hate hate.
Well thought out video. Thank you very much.
Good review, i know you say you are not sponsored by Dyson, but it certainly comes across as if you are, BUt and theres always a but Im off to buy one tomorrow on the strength of your review, this is to replace our ancient worn out first generation Dyson cordless.
Ha thanks. Out of interest, what is it about the review which made you think I'm sponsored? Is it simply because I give praise to a product (where praise was due)?
Great review, I really needed to know how powerful it is in Low mode.Thank you!
Well, the power consumed by the V11 I estimate to be 88W (in low). But I think what you're looking for is relative performance in low mode. I didn't quantify it for the V10, but the V11 isn't too dissimilar and is shown in my V11 review video ua-cam.com/video/Wk-1d8T0mmY/v-deo.html. Low mode is designed for very long cleaning sessions or above-floor cleaning (e.g. crevice tool), but most people will use normal mode and clean in an easier, bite-sized way rather than a whole house at once tiring mega clean.
@@VacuumFacts thank you for the quick reply, will check it out thanks.😊
@@VacuumFacts normal people clean the whole house in one go, and not one room one day and the other rooms another day, but I guess you can’t Do the whole house due to the dyson battery running out after a few mins
@@SAM-LDN 'Normal' people, eh? There's plenty of evidence of even large houses being cleaned on a single charge. The cordless formfactor allows freedom to bitesize cleaning andis much more convenient. Many people do now do this as a result of this technology. It's the cheap cordless knockoffs which sacrifice performance to get longer run times on their smaller batteries (to keep weight down because of their large, heavy, inefficient motors) that need multiple batteries as standard. The Dyson Outsize is specifically designed for gigantic mansion houses and does come with a second battery. Furthermore, Dyson are about to release the first new type of battery technology soon (they are apparently already in production), which will increase run times 2-4 times, and this will only improve over time as new battery chemistries being researched leave the lab. You are simply out of date, diminish people who have got with the times, and are flat out wrong when it comes to Dyson products at least.
@@VacuumFacts I should have said most people, not normal people. Tbh I’ve never heard of anyone who started hoovering and left it half way through, it makes zero sense to do that (unless your hoover battery runs out and you have to recharge (that’s the only way you can explain not finishing your hoovering in one go) I can hoover my whole house in around 30mins, also I’m not talking about newer up and coming models of the dyson, I’m only talking about the v10 cyclone , the one in this Video, the one you are demonstrating and discussing, so you saying im out of touch with new dyson technology is completely irrelevant.
I have a 3 bedroom house which includes a dining room, living room, kitchen, hallway, landing, and a bathroom, what’s the point in spending hundreds of pounds on a hoover if I can’t even clean my house in one go? It would make more sense to have a spare battery at the very least
So it’s more about how dyson optimizes there cleaners! From what I’ve learned you mentioned that suction and cfm is not relevant. It’s all about how the manufacturer designs their vacuum to perform at an optimal level! I know there’s been a lot of hatred on your videos, but I just want to know what’s right. I own a central vacuum, dyson animal 2, and the V11. My house is mainly hard floors and the V11 is amazing for general cleaning. I’ve also never had to worry about the battery life. But hey, I also love the central vacuum. I think both are great.
There are many videos showing a lack of understanding of suction, open hose airflow, and carpet-pile airflow, and people watch them and come away with the same faulty understanding. Some of the most misleading channels measure airflow at the open hose and simply assume the values they measure remain exactly the same through a carpet pile. That’s not true and airflow drops like a stone through pile relative to the open hose. (It’s actually the air airspeed through the pile which is important.) High suction is needed to maintain sufficient airspeed through the resistive pile. But, if suction is too high, you can get head clamping on some carpet types when enough air can’t get through, making it hard to push. This can also cause the brush bar to shutoff if it’s at risk of damaging the carpet. So, it's a balancing act to maximise pile airspeed for a given carpet type whilst avoiding clamping too much. The Dyson cordless have variable suction and head settings to help with this, depending on the floor type. Some carpet piles offer way more resistance to airflow than others, reducing the maximum airflow you can get through it and thus airspeed. Often thicker piles need more suction to increase airspeed through them, but some looser, thin-tassel shaggy carpets or rugs need lower suction to avoid clamping or brush bar damage. For example, this guy demonstrates this with the V11 but comes to completely the wrong conclusion. ua-cam.com/video/s2GBi_wuATs/v-deo.html None of the crude ‘tests’ carefully measure cleaning performance in a robust, statistical way to confirm anything he says, so it’s all very misleading for viewers. It’s important that a cleaner utilises the pile airflow it can generate through a given carpet type to maximise cleaning performance. This is where the cleaner head design becomes important. In my videos, I’ve explained how many features on modern Dyson heads (that many others then copy) allow maximum cleaning performance, even deep down in thicker piles, and even in the lower suction mode on carpets where clamping would otherwise occur. Once you’ve optimised the suction setting to avoid clamping and remain practical, thereby maximising airspeed through a given carpet pile, that airflow resource should then being maximally utilised by a good head design to extract the most dirt possible. This means pile needs to be separated and mechanically agitated. Many other cleaners shown in the above video have suction leaks at the head, so it appears they’re working better and drawing more airflow through the pile, but most of it is bypassing the carpet and doing no cleaning. But this isn’t shown in the video because no good measurements are made. Even if there’s similar airflow through the pile, it may not be being utilised as effectively or removing as much dirt if the pile is not flexed to release trapped dirt. Vibrational agitation also does very little. Unless someone has got good statistical data from well-conducted testing that accounts for things which could invalidate the data, their videos aren't likely to mean much. Manufacturers test to formal industry standards and also have it independently verified. And then you’ve got to factor in environmental impact and ease of use. Dyson come out on top according to the conclusions from testing. Much of this is discussed in my videos, as you’ve probably seen. People get very tribal about brands etc. and so when I explain all this convincingly on my channel and people simply don’t like it, I then get all the mindless hate.
Vacuum Facts Interesting, thanks for the information!
@@ronoldow.6438 There's further information here ua-cam.com/video/WzkFvMLy-Eo/v-deo.html and then in a number of other videos on my channel in case anyone is interested.
I have just bought a v10 absolute they’re amazing. So much better than a shark
I would have believed you were a Dyson shill had I not owned a Dyson V8 for several years of regular use. 99% of what you've said in your review has held true for my experience with the V8. No doubt some Kirby folks will come along with remarks like "look at what I vacuumed up with my Kirby after cleaning with the Dyson". Kirby might clean a little better, but who wants to bother with a giant contraption like that. Dyson cordless is to vacuums what cordless drills are to drills. Sure, contractors may occasionally need the power of a corded drill, but for most users, cordless is a revelation.
That said, it would be nice if the cyclones could be rinsed. They do hang on to fine dust and as you mentioned, require tapping to remove it. Still, the vacuum almost never smells and I have a 3 dog household.
You're completely right of course. Often the ignorant are the ones who accuse me of being a shill. But of knowledge and facts goes a long way to identify truth. And yes, I'm about to devastate the Kirby in the next few weeks and crush all the absurd and false myths surrounding them. Never again will anyone who wants to be respected be able to claim the things that are claimed now about them. They don't clean better as I'll prove.
@@VacuumFacts Get ready for a lot of hate. And don't forget to try that 'vacuum with another vacuum test' after using the Kirby. They always do that to show what other vacuums leave behind, but you can always get more up with another vacuum on the second pass. I've owned a Kirby and it does deep clean well - grabs onto carpet like a pitbull, but it was too much bother to use - large and bulky. Who wants to lug out that mess of tools and but the beast into convertible mode?
I can tell you've only just subscribed. I've been swatting off vicious hostile hate from the rabid vacuum enthusiasts for the last year without breaking a sweat. :) Unfortunately, they face things they haven't experienced before, such as someone who understands the underlying science and provides evidence they can't refute, such as in my latest video. All the "which vacuum goes last wins" has been fully accounted for in detail. Just check my videos.
i still will not use a cordless yet as if someone in house forgets to plug it in or put it back not got much charge to do what you want would bug me. it would be good for cleaning a car or somewhere a plug is not easy available but i'll still stick with the dc animal as uprights are still stronger and better and that was said by dyson them self but over time it will improve. but not like dyson no more cord vacs in production anymore. i see a comment before saying a hybrid plug in and corless would be amazing way to sort out the small problems with it all when you want the extra power just lug in a clipped plug in to it and have best of both that would make me buy one for sure.
I think if someone forgets to put it back on the wall, then they need a whipping for being lazy and useless until they learn ha. I wouldn't use a corded vacuum because what if someone forgot to put it away in the cupboard afterwards and I couldn't find it when needed; it would bug me. I think I missed the part where Dyson said corded cleaners are better; any chance you can send a link? I've observed corded aren't significantly better at cleaning performance relative to the V10. Also, send a link to where Dyson said they aren't producing corded vacs any more; I could only find links to places where they said they WERE still producing them (but not developing new models). A hybrid plugin defeats the point of the cordless, because then you've got to have a heavy, inefficient conventional motor and suddenly you've lost all the advantages and point of a cordless. Such an idea would be a gimmick that needs marketing trickery and stupid people who fall for it to sell well. 99.9% of cordless machines are crap; they're cheap copycat clones of the few that do it well and correctly. But the one that does it correctly (only the V10 at the moment) does it so well that it is better than a mains machine overall.
We have had the V8 for three years now and have been looking at the V10. The only issue we have now is that the battery is finally starting to lose run time. However that being said I have tried other competing products including Shark (the quality of Shark builds is really low). You are spot on about competitors with their additional batteries. The batteries combined might match the one single battery in a v8/v10. I would assume that the battery on the V10 has improvements in Battery technology that will make it last longer. In the end though I rarely use max power on our V8. We are a multi cat household and regular setting on the V8 can handle litter tracking and fur dust balls just fine. So the main criticism we all see about the v8/10 is that its low run time on Max setting. You never need to use max setting and if I do not have to with animals neither does anyone else...
Yeah, I don't think you'd need to use max setting even if you had pets in general. It's intended for spot messes. Some of my recent videos explain why low power mode works just as well, how it deep cleans, and what max mode is really used for. See here: ua-cam.com/video/QfBGBzuCriI/v-deo.html and its description links
Does putting the vacuum back in the wall charger and leaving it there until I next use it weakens the life of the battery? If the vacuum is fully charged is it ok to still leave it in the charger? I only vacuum once a week. Also how long does it hold a full charge before use when not in the charging docking station
No. battery life is diminished naturally through charge and discharge cycles. I can't remember off my head how many cycles these batteries are rated for, but it doesn't really matter, because in real-world use, with correct use of the on-off trigger, Dyson have apparently measured the battery to retain 80% of it's original maximum capacity after 15 years, which is 3 times longer than competitors. Not sure about the discharge rate of these batteries, but some older technology would lose about 1% per day. I suspect this has improved greatly since back then. The vacuum is designed to be left in the charger whenever it's not in use and it always remains fully charged and ready to go. Since I got this, I don't vacuum once a week now. I vacuum every day or two, but do just 1 or 2 rooms at a time. So much easier to bite-size the work and it takes the chore out of it.
Dyson one of best cordless machines still have a digital slim cordless (dc35) it’s never missed a beat it’s been used most days and for the car, filtration is good although dated now compared to v8/ V10 Machines , the competition has terrible filter systems and no cyclone action to speak of, I was never a fan of Dyson until I bought the first cordless, its battery is original and still holds charge ok after all the years, I’d seriously look at buying a V10 or V8 , quality reliable machine.
Very similar to my experience :)
It’s a great machine. Good review. I have a v8. But battery changing capability will add value to product.
And would double battery pollution! The next generation of Dyson handheld will probably introduce a new battery technology to the market offering faster recharge times and much bigger capacities.
All of your videos are brilliant. I hadn't realised you changed your youtube user name and I am glad I have found you again. Honest, to the point videos. Perfect. Thank you.
Thanks. I tend to find if people become hostile to my videos, it's because the videos show their deeply-held world-view is wrong, or they simply don't understand enough to hold informed opinions.
But they're not always bad people and I always try to be reasonably polite, even if they're a bit hostile. (Unless they go way too far.)
Vacuum Facts Me too, but when people make ridiculous and untrue statements then they must be told!
Yes, but always constructively :)
Vacuum Facts *cough*
I enjoy these videos very much. I have accidentally "tossed"(meaning it slipped out of my hand at the very top) my Dyson ball animal down my stairs and nothing happened to it. Although I once pulled my rainbow off of the counter (while it was on high setting) tripping on the cord and nothing happened to that either. Dyson plastic is quality. It may bend but it is like energy absorbing. It's supposed to bend. It kept my Dyson from breaking. I am convinced the new v10 is better then a cordless machine. I actually went to best buy and used one. I loved it. It actually felt like same airflow as my rainbow vacuum. Also the rainbow vacuum leaks a lot of air through every single connection point. So therefore by the time the airflow is pulled through the cleaner head I'm sure a quarter of it has been lost in the leaks. The Dyson v10 is completely sealed and I'm sure it could clean better then the rainbow in my opnion. Better design. I am going to try to get a v10 as soon as I can! Thank you for the great videos!
Hi kode1996. Thanks. :) Yes, Dyson uses modern and advanced polymeric materials in their products. They’re light yet extremely durable, so statistical failure rates are very low, despite the scaremongering. Materials science has moved on hugely since the days of cheap brittle plastic and heavy metals that cheap knock-offs use. People are still keen to bash Dyson though because they use ‘plastic’, which is very unfair and shows such people don’t understand materials science. Since I got my V10, I’ve never used my other Dyson mains machine, and that was the best performer on the market according to industry standard tests. In fact, I think it now has dust on it! The V10 is a beast but very expensive (you get what you pay for though).
Love my v6 origin
I've been amazed at how much more thorough this is. It gets so much more dog hair than my $900 Riccio
There are still people who come up with deceitful and unrepresentative tests to attempt to suggest the exact opposite to this reality. Amazing really that people champion rip-offs whilst claiming the Dyson is a rip-off. It's like they're on another planet.
I like to see you got no scratches on the pipe!
I am confused on which one to buy, I see there is Absolute, Animal, Motorhead and I have no idea what the difference is. Also is it advertisable to buy the Manufacturer refurbished directly from Dyson store on ebay as I am on a lean budget
The Dyson website explains the differences and what each version offers. The refurbished ones from Dyson are cheaper but have a shorter warranty.
I'm getting a V10 Animal because of this video!
don't. On a full 3 hour charge it will last less than 5 minutes
@@amargad69 that's your problem that you got a faulty one, stop crying kiddo.
@@amargad69 well that's a fault on your own then🤣
Thank you for this honest review. After spending the morning looking at different models and reviews, I'm convinced that this is the cordless vacuum cleaner that I want to invest in. I'm looking forward to it, as most of the vacuums in my life have been barely adequate. Great job on the review and an unbiased view of the naysayers too. Thanks so much!
Few of the naysayers ever say anything valuable. Hope it's a product that works well for you. :)
Great review thanks. Well presented and backed-up by your real-world practical experience. Keep it up.
Am I the only one finding the clear bin too hard to open? I have to push the release button quite hard to open it, and I'm afraid that it will break. I tried to lubricate the red seal inside and it improved a little bit, but still too hard in my opinion
If it's brand new, then it'll losen over time. Putting lube on the mesh will probably stop that from working properly as the dust is supposed to lubricate it. What did Dyson say when you called them, given it's under warranty and they offer customer service?
Put your indexfinger and middlefinger on the bottom (or the cap) and use your thumb to 'click' the red release, then you can shove the release further down to open the bin.
I still think Dyson products are overpriced but they're still the best, that's why I continue to use them. The V10 and V11 can absolutely replace corded vacuums now, they are very powerful and can last one hour. Even my V7 still has plenty of battery left after cleaning my 3 bedroom apartment.
They're expensive. But I'd use the word "premium" rather than overpriced. In my V11 review, I demonstrate what constitutes genuinely "overpriced" vacuums. ua-cam.com/video/Wk-1d8T0mmY/v-deo.html Only the V10 and V11 are marketed (to date) as being genuine mains replacements; the rest are cheap Dyson clone rip-offs.
I would love to swap our wired Dyson to the V10. Though it's 1K here in Australia. Have you seen or used the xiomi new bagless vac?
Yep, it's a nice effort, but inferior unfortunately. Save up for the V12 in Q2 2020. I think it'll have special new battery technology ushering an new era for portable devices in the consumer world.
@@VacuumFacts yea, was thinking that. We have the roborock that does a pretty good job for our small home. Might keep a look out for annouments on the v12
Do you know the later V10s have a redesigned cleanerhead? It’s the same as the original except the brush spins quieter now by hand especially and it feels like the gears/cogs roll nicer inside
The connection between the brushbar and the motor is also different
They're always making tweaks and revision updates for each generation on sale, I guess, based on information that's fedback to them. Like with the battery holder mod for the V11. I'm not aware of the competition, e.g. Shark, doing anything like that.
Great review. Just lo purchased purely based off this video. Thankyou
haha; pity I don't get commission from Dyson
Very good review. Thank you
Thanks; I've reviewed the generation after too ua-cam.com/video/Wk-1d8T0mmY/v-deo.html
Hello just a follow up remember me. I just got it brand new and it looks really clean just a little package debris around it what do you recommend
Follow the manual's instructions. Contact Dyson support if necessary for further help.
Hi. JohnnyL8 Thank you so much for review. I have a question tho. My house is mostly hard floor.
I live in canada and I am trying to choose between V10 motorhead and V10 animal.
v10 motorhead comes with direct drive cleaner head, whereas v10 animal comes with Torque drive cleaner head.
1. Is there significant difference on hard floors between those two heads other than the fact that the Torque drive head can pick up some bigger things?
2. Are both heads suitable for hard floor? (I know v10absolute comes with softbrush but it is just too expensive.) Can I use them primarily for hardfloors and if so, which head would work better or will they be similar?
Thank you so much
I think because either head has carbon fibre bristles on the roller, they're suitable for hard floor. The fluffy head is designed for even delicate hard floors.
7
Is there a difference between the absolute model and total clean?
I think some of the tools; Dyson's website will say.
Can't you change the battery? When it dosnt work as well anymore
You can, but "when it doesn't work as well anymore" is, under normal conditions and usage, well after the product's expected lifetime and so not something likely to happen anyway.
JohnnyL8
In our vac shop I work at we’ve had V8s, and V7s come in recently. All needing new battery’s after the 2 Year Guarantee has ran out
For that to be meaningful, can you show evidence of how the batteries were treated during their lifetime and how they failed in precise detail at a technical level. Maybe they were abused? What about statistical significance of the failure rate? A handful in a shop says nothing about the global population of cleaners. To note that some have 'failed' somehow doesn't really say much about the product. Furthermore, an official (safe) replacement battery costs like £50 from dyson; they'll mail it out and you pop it in.
JohnnyL8
I work in a vacuum shop. Our supplier is an Offical Dyson Distributor of Genuine Parts. Our battery’s are Genuine.
Battery’s on Dysons website for the V8 are £60
The V8 and V10 battery can be removed by removing the screws. I have the V8 and now after 3 years of using it 3 to 4 times a day the battery run time is now diminishing. Other than that its still a good value. I will be buying a new battery from Dyson for our V8. I will however probably wait on the next generation and skip the V10.
Thank you so much for your honest review try finding one
I just bought this today Feb 1st 2020 as it was on offer we currently use the upright centric big ball 12kg heavy compared to this V10..
I was just gutted I bought the least powerful V10 animal and not the absolute V10..
Could you tell me its not worth the extra £100 just for another head...
Could you also tell I didn't make a mistake because when I ordered the V10 animal for £349 I saw the latest shark for duo anti hair 80 minutes running time for same price you get sharks 5 years warranty free of charge....
Could you tell me which 1 is better and have I made a mistake?
Hard to say because different countries offered different things. There's not that much difference in the heads, but the more modern the head, the better it performs. If you feel you bought the wrong one, you have a 30 day money back guarantee so can return it. Then you can purchase the device of choice. The Shark is a capable machine, but not as strong a performer or good a product as the Dyson variations.
I do like the Dyson but I feel like the run time would be a limitation for me as I usually spend a while vacuuming. I do like to use my Numatic vacuum as it built for commercial environments and it’s really well made and durable. The 9 litre capacity is also a plus. I don’t really feel that the newer Dysons are as well built as the older Dysons. I have owned domestic vacuums like Dysons and Vax and the commercial vacuums always seem to be built to last. Could you do a video comparing Commercial vacuums to Vacuums intended for domestic use?
I've learned not to spend a long time vacuuming; just do it bite-sized more regularly. Much easier. 20 minutes is plenty for me and many. Bin capacity is a non-issue because it's so easy to empty (about 5 seconds without mess). There's no objective evidence I've come across that newer models are less well built; most people's feelings (a.k.a. revelation-i.e. non-evidence) don't count as evidence. I don't own a commercial vacuum. I think it's down to the manufacturers to show performance for those machines. But it would be like comparing a car to a tank; different purposes and not comparable even though they both carry people from one place to another. The closest I've done to that is the video explaining the issues with central vacuums (ua-cam.com/video/80hepoNEZhM/v-deo.html ).
JohnnyL8 I remember the old DC07 that was used in my house. It lasted over 10 years and the filters didn’t get cleaned for 9 years of its life. It was quite heavy and even the dirt bin had quite a lot of weight to it. What killed it was bad bearings in the motor. I don’t think that the newer Dysons could withstand 10 years of heavy use unfortunately. There is a video on UA-cam of a tear down of the Dyson Big Ball vacuum by AVE and there was quite a lot of evidence in that video to indicate that it was lower quality.
Dyson do claim their machines have a 10 year lifetime; guaranteed for 5 (for statistical reasons). I don't know why the cordless only have 2 year guarantees, but my original DC35 was functional for 6 years without issue before I upgraded. I'm not aware of real evidence of lower quality; teardowns by ameteurs are not convincing. What was the evidence they claimed out of interest? Dyson test to failure in a statistically significant way and appear confident they last, assuming the manual is followed (e.g. not avoiding washing filters for 9 years). Again, 'feelings' don't count for much when it comes to matters of fact; formal objective evidence rules in that domain.
"most people's feelings (a.k.a. revelation-i.e. non-evidence) don't count as evidence"
one reply later...
"but my original DC35 was functional for 6 years without issue before I upgraded"
It doesn't take a genius looking at their new designs to see their weak points. If you're willing to go look at the flimsy plastic wheel single joint axle on their new canister range and conclude that they're perfectly suitable, then I don't know what to tell you. There are hundreds of negative reviews involving the wheels simply falling off that weren't there with any of their previous cylinder designs. ua-cam.com/video/NPTzNJMd19A/v-deo.htmlm28s
Reviews aren't indicators of overall failure rate, but it can be useful for comparing between different models relatively. Would it be great if the Institute For The Industry Standard Testing Of Vacuum Durability existed? Sure, but it doesn't and reviews are a useful way to see how well machines compare. We're not determining the heat death of the universe here...
Opt-in reviews are easily falsifiable testimony and don't count as convincing evidence. Only failure rate as measured objectively counts and I'm not aware of any data publicly available to conclude confidently that there are design flaws. This is strengthened by the severity of their testing which is rigorous, formal, and statistically significant and ensures minimum probability of failure. Amateur YT videos like in the link also don't provide any explanation of how that damage occurred or how to successfully reproduce it in any formal way, so aren't convincing at all. Evidence evidence evidence when it comes to matters of fact, and you alsmost certainly won't find it in the public-space web.
If you’re a dog owner, particularly long hair dogs like golden retrievers, the bin fills up and stops in a few minutes. Also, after emptying the bin the icon for plugged up comes on and the machine stops. Granted I just got the machine and may learn it’s idiosyncrasies but the first day has not been good.
Did it improve after you got all of that original dirt out of the carpet?
I've been very interested in these Dyson vacuums but had my skepticism so I went to the Mall of Scandinavia here in Sweden where they have a store with all their products and tried one out and they were simply amazing. Still, they were way out of my budget since I was still a bit skeptical. A couple of weeks ago the Dyson V6 Animal Extra was on sale for 1 999sek around £175, $220 and I bought it. While it's their oldest model it's without a doubt a life changing gadget! It works so well that I wouldn't mind paying full price for it. It's really amusing how people slam a product without ever trying it.
Yeah. Sometimes you can make reasonable, well-thought-out assumptions without using every possible product, but for something like a new form-factor product, there's no substitute for at least properly trying it. The V10 is light years beyond even the V6. I predict the V12 in 2020 will revolutionise the market again with advanced battery technology unlike anything seen in user products, so start saving. :)
I still use my V6 all the time. So handy.
No V11 first?
@@nespressoman There was no V9. Not sure how they assign labels. They're arbitrary anyway. "The next generation" is what I mean really.
Vacuum Facts I found it strange that the V7 was released after the V8.
Would you recommend the standard version of the V10 or is it worth it to upgrade into the complete version (w/ all accessories)?
If you think you'd use the accessories, then it's worth the upgrade; otherwise the cheaper version may be easier on your wallet.
Superb review!
Thanks
Great video. Is the soft head meant for hard floor?
yep
Yes only for hardfloor. If you use it on carpet, you might as well clean your carpet with a lint roller
I've recently learned that I've become allergic to dust and dust mites. I presently have a corded budget vacuum 50 $/€ with a hepa filter of 95.5% since 2 year back. Is upgrading to a Dyson v10 worth it? I also have an air purifier since I really want to get rid of the menace of sinus issues and headaches.
The output of any sealed HEPA grade machine is the same, including the V10 onwards. If it's not sealed, dust can bypass the filter. From an allergy point of view, the V10 onwards has a bin emptying mechanism which can prevent significant dust splashback when emptying, and this can be achieved without the cost or environmental impact of bags. It also makes the chore of cleaning easier than mains machines, meaning you can spot clean, or otherwise, more frequently.
I bought a V10 recently and I love it. Just have one problem and I wonder if its normal or Im doing it wrong? If there is hair or a bit of hay on floor dyson clogs up at drive head or upper part of bin and I often have to scoop the dirt with my hands when I empty the bin - hardlly hygenic and that I dont like. Any solutions?
Not without seeing the problem reproduced clearly in a video or something
I originally doubted Dyson's cordless vacuums.
After using the og V6 at my girlfriend's house many times its hands down much better than any corded vacuum.
It's there when you need it....it will pick up anything and rarely needs cleaning.
The only problem I encountered was the filter clogging.
I cleaned it with hot water and laundry detergent Until the water was BLACK about 3-4 times and now it works like new.
It's 8+ years old and nothing is broken on it and the batteries still last long enough to do the whole house in one charge...
It's about a 2000 sq foot house with carpet.
Thanks for the comment. The V6 is still a better machine than most modern competitor cordless after all these years-because they did it right rather than just to make a fast buck. The V10 is massively better than the V6 now. Filters are best rinsed with cool water monthly to avoid them building up dirt and avoid smells. If you never clean it ever, it’ll end up making the water black like you saw haha
I just bought a Dyson V11 as well as a Roomba S9+. Hopefully they both last because they’re expensive as all hell.
DookB ha right ESP no soft roller which seem better on hard floors
I'm confused with whether I should keep it charged when i'm not using it. Wouldn't it be better if you only charge it when the power is dead fully or not?
The expectation is you keep it charged when not using it so it's rfully ready for the next use. As with any battery-powered device. And no, it's not better to charge it when it's fully dead; battery technology doesn't suffer from recharge memory issues like that anymore.
I got this vacuum on sale because it is getting discontinued. I enjoy it. However, my one major complaint is the price Dyson charges for attachments. $40 for the angle adaptor tool is ridiculous.
I dont believe Dyson are discontinuing the V10. In fact, they still support their V7 and 8. Although, specific third-party shops and sellers may be discontinuing it. And yes, the extra tools are expensive (as is everything they sell). It's the premium surcharge, alas-common for any technology. Some tools you might be able to get cheaper second hand, although I would avoid knockoff clones which don't work as well.
@@VacuumFacts The Dyson V7, V8, V10 are being discontinued in Taiwan and replaced with the new Dyson Slim line which is a lot lighter. The Slim vacuums were released about two months ago. Dyson claims that Digitial Slim has the same performance as the V10, but is 30% lighter. For me, I'll take a 40% discount on a V10 over 30% less weight on a Dyson Digital Slim any day of the week. The digital screen is also nice, but I can live without it. Here is a link to the product. www.dyson.tw/vacuums/cordless-vacuums/dyson-digital-slim.aspx
@@chaunceystewart9960 Ah ok, that might be true in Taiwan actually. Interesting!
@@chaunceystewart9960 dunno where you've seen or heard that info. They still produce parts for the v10
Is this vacuum appropriate for shag rug also ?
Don't see why not. But they're always harder to clean because of all the surface leaks from the floppy tassels.
I would like to see the tools that come with the V10 as standard. Also is it twice as good as other stick cordless vacuums that are half the price. I am about to return a Vax blade 32v which was £160. The battery & suction was very good but emptying the dust canister was very messy as was washing the sponge filter. Are there any sponge filters in this and can I empty the dust into a small profile bin measuring 30 x 16 cm without getting half on the floor.
I did a new video recently showing hygienic emptying of the V10, so maybe take a watch and decide if you could fit into that bag. I fitted into a bowl (ua-cam.com/video/E_ik6qScs0o/v-deo.html ). There is a single filter that should be washed as discussed in the review, and in the 1 month review I think I discussed ways of safely speeding up drying time (using a fan).
I am having problems with my dyson not charging. I plug it in for 5 seconds shows the charging light and then goes off
Give Dyson a call seeing as it's still under warranty
Love my v10
I wouldn't consider myself a "Dyson hater", I still think they have the best cyclonic dust separation in the industry and that their cordless machines are the best, full stop. My issue is when people insist that we should all convert and that everything else is old technology.
I recommend bagged vacuums to most people because most people simply don't give a damn about vacuuming -- they don't remember to wash the filter nor to not overfill the bin and bagged vacuums are simple stupid in that regard. Decent filtration bags trap the majority of the dirt, the prefilter stays clean and the postfilter just has to deal with carbon dust.
And ultimately for the environment, it's better for them to throw out a bag every year rather than throwing out unmaintained vacuums every two. I know people which only have cordless sweepers without any suction as their primary cleaners; goes to show how little most people care about the cleanliness of their carpets.
It's like K-Cups and NespressoPods. They're more expensive, produce lackluster tasting coffee, worse for the environment, etc yet people prefer them because you don't have to worry about cleaning filters, brushing off coffee grounds, etc. For many people, it's better.
I hear you; many people just don't give a crap. But I've never been one to advocate compensating for carelessness by failing to embrace better technology. The worst of us shouldn't be dictating what's available to the best of us. I suspect such people don't constitute the majority though given the numbers of people who buy Dyson cleaners, which given their price, are known at purchase time to be high end. People who genuinely don't care buy cheap. To believe it's better environmentally, I'd need to see some data for that which shows it to be true on a global scale. I don't know if such data exists.
I don't like bags. They clog easily despite little visible debris/dust in the bag. It must be the smallest particles that clogs these paper bags. I'm considering these cyclone based vacuums once I get the money to burn.
Bags are atrocious old technology as I've covered in detail here: ua-cam.com/video/ptN0kkOtGSM/v-deo.html There's nothing good about them, and the apparent advantages are only misleadingly so when compared against cheap, knock-off, poorly designed bagless technology which lazy and inferior manufacturers peddle to unsuspecting customers to make a quick buck. The best bagless technology on the market which does it correctly solves every problem with bags as discussed in the video linked.
Nice review. But you were DEFINITELY paid for by Dyson for this review. Evident from your way of talking !!!
haha thanks. I honestly wasn't paid anything. It cost me £500 of hard earned money and I hope I never have to buy another vacuum for a long time. The way I'm talking is giving praise where praise is due. There are also bad things pointed out too, which isn't what you'd expect if you were paid to polish apples.

@johnnyL8 did you have to buy the flexible hose you store on your docking station? I’ve just bought the Absolute (top of the range) and it didn’t come with that. Thanks, good review, loving mine so far
The extension hose comes with the total clean model and not the absolute. You can probably buy it separately. What comes with each is listed on their website (www.dyson.co.uk/vacuum-cleaners/sticks.html ) at the bottom (expand the dropdown).
Its a fucked. up machine Junk. 1 to 10 10 being best of best its a. 2.5 at Best
Dyson should make a affordable model for £150 or something. That would really expand their market
Some of their older models aren't that far off that price, especially in sales.
Buy a refurbished one.
When did this one come out?
The worst part of dyson vacuums are the price
True; it's the reason I don't have a V11.
We returned ours after 3 days.
Sounds as though it was given a nice fair go. Took me a bit longer than that to realise its virtues.
smart move
Bizarre and irrational hatred of a good product @@johnross1880
How long do you think these will last as I have a Dyson dc07 which is 15 years old and still works like new
Dyson have always claimed their (mains) machines were designed to last 10 years at the very least. So much longer if treated well. I suspect physically, the V10 would be similar. I had a DC35 cordless for several years without any issue. They also said the V10 battery is expected to retain 80% of its original maximum charge after 15 years of normal use.
I can agree their handheld cordless vacuum is one of the best in the industry.....but corded is definitely Miele for sure.

I've not seen any data to actually show the claim about Miele is true. I have however seen conclusions from independent testing that the UK Dyson Ball is the best performing mains cleaner, which directly contradicts your unsupported claim.
I've never seen a product review video that sounded more like a brand funded propaganda. You really went all the way there, buddy.
ha Given that it wasn't funded and I had to bankrupt myself to buy it, shows how good the product must be then, surely. :)
Hi. I'm not saying that it is paid promotion. It just sounds like it :) I own Dyson V6 and I will never buy another one. The battery that can't be replaced, small dust container, etc. They're not bad vacuum cleaners, but definitely overpriced.
@@AndrzejJeczen They've addressed all those shortcomings (that aren't non-issues) in the V10
I'm totally happy that you're happy with your Dyson but £450 for a vacuum cleaner is crazy money. Dyson are like iPhone. Good, but not value for money. In my opinion :)
@@AndrzejJeczen Unlike Apple products, I think the Dyson products are value for money. I definitely feel I'm getting my money's worth with the V10. Totally revolutionary.
