@@jmacho54now there’s the V15S submarine, V15S submarine absolute in addition to V15 and V15 Absolute, they should’ve just given a different name as this is priced closer to Gen5 detect and makes it unclear to many what the top of the range is. I’m a former Dyson rep and even I see the issue to customers who aren’t always informed
I just swapped my V15 Detect for the V15 Submarine. Yes it's a big price for an addition but I have since mopped my place several times within minutes and it so SO good when you have pets. Dyson is one of the only brands where I am pretty much buying blind and never have been disappointed so far. I also must say that I was surprised by Dyson's customer service, at least here in germany. I had a problem where the Vacuum told me to clean the filter which didn't go away. They sent me an entire new main body and I got to keep the old one. I bought a second battery and now I have two fully functional dysons, one for downstairs and one for upstairs to clean the bed.
What type of floors have you used this on? I have tiles in the bathroom but the rest of the house is engineered laminate 'wooden' boards (German made). I know I cannot use steam cleaners on them because it will damage them as they are made up of very thin layers of wood.
👍👍 This is the first and only channel so far that mentions the fact that the submarine has no suction. And as a reviewer who also checks Wet & Dry Vacs like the Crosswave this is important.
But I'm glad its that contained though. I've never owned a wet and dry vacuum and when I first saw this and considering getting the first thing that came to mind was I dont care if it tucks tons of water up, if I had to clean the entire passage of that suction, which includes a hard to clean parts it would defeat having that feature. I'd just mop is with a mop or a cloth and itll be so much more convenient to clean up a spill that way than using a vacuum. I'm assuming they're used for those that vacuums their house everyday, there are going to be very fine dust covering the floor quickly and people who does that usually mops their house fairly and this would be great for that daily maintenance, but I wish it had tested it with some hairs, be ause even if there isnt large debris on it you're bound to get some hair, especially longer hair
I just bought this today. I think the mop attachment is meant to replace traditional stick mop and bucket and its not meant to be used for picking up large dry debris (something that you wouldn't do with a mop anyway). Vacuum first, mop after. In case of spill spillage, pick up big chunks with tissue and then use this (just like how you would do with a manual mop).
I just bought one of their high-end stick vaccums within the past year. I’m not dropping $$$$$ on a whole new one just because it can deal with wet stuff. Make the heads interchangeable and you have my attention. Like a Canon camera. You buy the body but all different lenses will fit.
That software thing sounds like BS, I have invested heavily on the v15 complete+ which includes additional set of battery and charger, their newer stand an whole other of attachment including their combo wand. I would've loved buying their new attachment, but I won't buy whole new vaccum for that.
I appreciate the honest insights. Super disappointing and ridiculous the Wet Roller Head doesn't work with V15. Also I can't believe it doesn't suck up dirt and debris with the wet head... it's basically a simple "spinning Swiffer WetJet", that pushes crud around.
The green laser is the most genius idea I've seen in a vacuum ever. If you're OCD don't use it, that laser will point out every atom of dust and strand of hair. It's fun to use though
A simple but very effective way of finding small stuff on the floor. I do this with a phone light if i drop something something small on the floor or need to help find my brother’s contact lens.
With long hair dog the mechanical parts on each side of the soft roller gets clogged with MASIVE amount of hair and the two little floor wheels also gets jammed after every use. I spent more time cleaning the roller than vacuum so I had to stop using it. I wish Dyson would just put the laser on the Motor Head that performs as well as the soft roller head based on the tests while also able to operate on carpets without swapping. Motor Head with Laser + Submarine Head + Low Reach Adapter is all I need from Dyson.
I was eager to see if this was a wet/dry vac that would make cleanups easier, but it seems like all of them have pitfalls. They don't actually save you any time versus using separate devices to vaccum and mop.

I’m not sure the blue HEPA is actually upgraded. These haven’t been available to buy as spares from Dyson for as long as I’ve owned my V15, but the Dyson rep I called promised me that the purple filters are identical in all respects…except for colour. She also checked with their technical dept after making that claim, and they agreed. I ended up buying the purple one for a backup filter 🤷♂️
I bought this two weeks ago from Dyson's website, through chatting option. Guy convinced me to buy this machine with 20% discount and free shipping, which I thing was not a bad deal. I request chatting because I confused with the same $940 price tag on both versions of V15 submarine. One is also;ute with full hepa filtration and one without, that looks exactly as same as regular last years v15. Of course I got absolute version.
Thank you for the informative review! I saw an ad today about the Dyson submarine and liked the idea, so started more research about it. I have a Dyson V10 and love it for everyday use!

The main reason, is the attachment only mopping the floor without vacuuming.
They should at least offer a trade-in option for V15 user's, I would love this mop head but I'm not going to but another 900€ vacuum a year after I bought the V15. Somehow I have a hard time believing the "Programming issues". Probably just anti consumer behaviour.
We have recently purchased this vacuum; hubby bought it. I find it too heavy, I don’t like that the trigger needs to be held the whole time, which causes hand strain for me. Most of all I find it won’t reach under furniture that sits low on the floor, and as we have hard floors that’s where lots of dust and hair gathers.
Agree. My mom can't use it because it is heavy and you have to use the button to work which for old people or young children might not work. It does t pick any debris. For dry debris, you have to vacuum, fpr wet debris you have to clean yourself by hand first so people with dogs, babies, mud.....I recommend against it
3:56 Infuriating. I got my v15 a few months ago, waited a long time before I was sure, Dyson released a mop attachment for the v12 and now, they release this for a specific v15s model... REALLY?
So basically the mop attachment can be sloted into a wand, into a 3D printed handle with batteries in it connected directly to the power teminals and it would have the same effect. No wonder they dont sell it separately. Seems almost trivial to get it working without a Dyson. That is unless it doesn't operate without communicating to the vacuum (they are doing some communication which allows the vacuum to stop its suction)
Very cool! But I don’t think this would replace a standard Wet/Dry vac that has suction. Roborock Dyad Pro Review? Or a competition of the best wet/dry vacs?
I read on their website that Dyson recommends to replace the wet roller every 6 months, but the only accessory listed for the submarine is the whole head assembly at $250. Will they just sell the actual roller so it's affordable to maintain?
How does the V15s Detect Submarine compare to the gen5? looks like the submarine has the improved filter that the gen5 has and the built-in dust wand, but it also has a trigger for power. Does it have the brighter light on the hard floor roller like the gen5? So, without the mop, is it a V15 or a Gen5??
It looks like the moping head can be used separately from the Dyson body after some minor adjustments. The head looks simple and easy to use and to clean comparing to other mops. I wish they start selling it separately or some china company copies it.
Hi. I did not understand well about the compatible with V15 Detect absolute. I have this model and wants to buy additional tool - this submarine head. Is it ok? Thank you
is there a way to reset the dust counter? Vacuum is good. The floor washer is bad. My new vacuum seems to have been used as the counter was showing a lot of usage and a quarter filled dirty bin.
I checked the price and it's about 50% more than I paid for the Dyson V11 Absolute in 2019... which already was far from cheap. I think I'll stick to the V11 and the inexpensive steam mop combo I've got.
I did a similiar thing. I bought a gen 5 at discount price and have a steam cleaner. Surely using boiling steam is more hygienic than using cold water.
We live on a hobby farm So the issue is Fine dirt Fur Dust Flooring is Tile Polished concrete Linoleum Some large area rugs I have a shop vac but it does a poor job on dog fur and fine dust. I know mopping is still a must but my mops do the brunt of the work. What should I get to speed up cleaning? Thank you
So all it does is provide power from its batteries to the head through its prongs then. Does the electronics turn the suction off or is it making the loud noise even when only turning the rollerbar?
Also anyone found a good use for the Particle Count Graph on the display? I guess the first or second uses can be informative but you'd just get used to suction going up or down when the same is achieved. I'd like to see people's uses for it. It'll be interesting.
So ignoring the mop function is it comparable with the v15 or the gen5 ? It appears to be the v15. Given the gen5 is a step up from the v15 this would be a step backwards for vacuuming
You forgot to mention the most interesting point: the attachments are all model specific. I have the Gen 5 Outsize (or what ever - the bigger one) and they have identical attachments but the submarine is keyed to prevent swapping attachments. Also batteries are NOT interchangeable either. 😢
Kind of disappointing that they are going to make you buy an entirely new vacuum to get this feature. At their price point it could have easily been made to be an add on to the v15 at least
@@TinkerTailorSoldier1 I believe that is debatable. Are people who own a Dyson Vac going to shell out big money for a glorified mop? As per this review, it isn't any better than what is on the market now for a much lower prices
@@scpatl4now It most certainly is debatable. I personally think they would be able to move a $300/$400 mop head by itself rather than a whole new system. However, if it is a programming issue, how do you think they can rectify that? The older vacuums don’t have wifi. They can’t send a firmware update OTA. That means everyone would have to send their vacuums in and someone would have to hand program or swap out chips. Even if people paid for it, what would be easier… normal operations for a new product launch that they’ve done several times before… …ooooor handling thousands if not tens of thousands of units coming in and out and having to have an American or European staff to make the changes. If not domestically, send them back to the Philippines where they were made? No, just have a new product.
I don't think it could be retrofit easily. For this attachment to work, the vacuum needs to supply power to the floor head without the suction motor running. Older Dyson vacuums most likely weren't designed/programmed to be able to do that since there wasn't a reason for them to ever turn off the suction motor prior to the release of this attachment.
I don't find anywhere to buy the Submarine + Absolute model (the blue filter one) Even the link in the description points to a violet one, without Absolute.. And also I want to understand if I can use detergent for the mop facility?
I would love to know how it works on dark gloss hardwood floors and the smudge/grease marks that inevitably show up everywhere. If it handled those I would definitely buy.
The back keeps changing in the video does the one with the crevices tool have the thing where you press the button once to turn on on or the one where you keep holding I just ordered one and I’m curious
I always sweep, vacuum and mop bathroom and kitchen floors. I think with the submarine and other heads (not sure which one) I could reduce this to two passes. Hair in the bathrooms is the killer.
Thank you for the report! great video. Just one question, please, do you need to be pushing all the time the action botton so that the machine works? or you push it just once and then the machine works all the time? If you need to be pushing, maybe the finger gets tired. Thank you so much.
I've had dyson vacuums for years, you have to keep the trigger pressed. However i never found it tiring or problematic for my fingers or arms ( for reference, am a skinny woman).
Do you have a video on how to detect if your battery is going on the Dyson? I have had a Dyson for 5 years and I think the battery is going but I’m not sure and I don’t want to spend 150 bucks on a battery if that’s not the issue. I have done all their tests that Dyson recommends online and every time I do a test the result is different so I had to come to vacuum wars with your vast knowledge of Dyson vacuums to ask. Thanks in advance 😊
The whole point of these Dyson's is to save you time with it lightweight cordless features so vacuuming before mopping is a waste of time for large spaces. I would still use Dyson as a vacuum until they refine the mopping features.
I'm pretty sure you can use pine sol...just dilute it before putting in the tank.. then refill the tank with warm water and run the machine so it cleans the tubing and water outlets.
Yes. The vacuum motor stops when this attachment is in use. This is the so called "programming issue" Dyson is referring to. Apparently this is not programmed prior models and therefore older models have no way to detect this attachment and stop the vacuum motor. But its stupid that this is not compatible with gen 5 detect, which is supposed to be their flagship model now. The submarine attachment also has its own motors. So when its attached, the motor for the microfiber rollers are the ones rotating and vacuum head is basically acting as a power bank.
Just to let you all know that the runtimes shown here are not based on the average user in the home and after having the machine for several months!! I have a V15 and I only get around 18 - 20 minutes when using on carpets!! What is not mentioned anywhere here is that batteries degrade over time and so the user will not get the same run time they did when the machine is brand new. Run time as a handheld on Medium mode is 40 minutes when new and then reduces to around 33 minutes and this will reduce further as the battery wears. Another issue I have encountered is the DLS Dynamic Load Sensor does not work the same when the filter gets dirty, so result in the particle counter showing the machine picking up significantly less than when the filter is washed. The Dynamic Load Sensor stops detecting that I am on carpets as the filter gets dirty and so stays on the 'hard floor setting' resulting in poorer performance. So proves that Dyson do lose suction as the filter pores clog, just like how a bag vacuum loses suction as the pores clog. I feel that I have been lied to by Dyson all these years with their No Loss Of Suction claims!!
I'm so glad i did my research as i wanted the submarine mop head. Have to admit out of the box it looks like a high quality product and i'd be pissed after forking out so much money if it wasnt. Everything from the quality of the stand to the packaging. ✌️
We are looking at that one as well as a handful of new releases now, so the initial reviews will be coming out one at a time starting next week. Thank you for asking.
IMPORTANT QUESTION: Does the Submarine head attachment work with the 'V15 Detect Absolute' version? If so why cannot i find this combination to purchase over the internet?
Is the Gen5 the new top model? If so, I find it strange that they did not add a submarine option to it. Maybe it will come later as an option to purchase separately? If not I find this a bit stupid from their side.. since I am not buying another machine for that price in at least 5-10 years.
So one thing I think you covered but want to confirm. Since it is two stage, does this model work just as well attaching the vacuum head and then attacking the submarine head for mopping. In other words, you don’t have to buy the v15 vacuum then the submarine one. As the sub can do both jobs just changing the heads. (I’m super confused and bad at articulating, apologies😂)
What electric mop would you recommend for clinker floor normally cleaned with robot everyday but the seams are dirty thus I think it needs some kind of pressure to get down and then suction to get it up.
I have both Shark Vertex Pro and Shark Stratos and I love both although the Stratos seems to have slightly more power and longer battery but either way they’re both a win! After trying many stick vacs, one being the Ryobi with double roller bars, the Sharks are hands down the absolute best for dog hair! I have a mini Aussie and a Husky Aussie mix, both of which shed constantly and especially during seasonal changes and have literally destroyed stick vacs like the Ryobi double bar with their intense fur. And yes, I always check my rollers to be sure nothing is tangled and the Ryobi was so bad I returned it as the motor stopped turning on after it’d clog or tangle, it clogged constantly over hair and I’d have to disassemble the damn thing but the absolute worst were the rollers would be so tangled I had to cut the hair out and rip it off as best I could to maintain… with the Sharks I’ve never had a clog, it seems to clean well and doesn’t eat rugs and has never tangled even during shedding season and my two have double coats so that’s really saying something. Sharks one downfall is it struggles to suck up on the sides but does better in the front but I’ll take that over tangles. Btw I just received my Black and Decker hand vac Flex with the dog hair tool that I think only QVC is selling… love it! It’s pretty powerful, I haven’t run it long enough to drain the battery because it’s powerful and makes cleaning quick but for me their little invention with the dog hair tool that’s this simple rubber thing with a hole in the center actually works! It works so well I won’t order anything else without that exact same dog hair tool! It’s super light weight, easy to hold with a stretchy hose but that dog tool makes it worth it over other hand vacs! I was skeptical but damn with a little manual back and forth motion that tool somehow gets the hair lifted off furniture or clothing or bedding and sucks it up like it’s nothing. FYI if someone needs a hand vac and dog hair management this is it!
Ive never tried shark products because i always thought Bissell were much better but im looking to try out other brands because one isn't enough for my dogs shedding. Have you compared the sharks to other vacuums such as the dysons?
The million $ question is; Did you actually try the submarine on the other Dyson's? To me it looks like the attachment uses the vacuum for power only. Is it like this LED light attachment you can add to the system, and the motor-head attachments doesn't work? I don't get how this can be "programming issue"...
This model can turn off the motor so that it only provides electricity to the floorhead without any suction. Older models can't do that so they will stall out and turn themselves off
The 360 isnt available to purchase yet (we buy everything we review.) We have however reviewed the Big and Quiet and that one appears in this video here: ua-cam.com/video/zzHSI1S--FU/v-deo.htmlsi=bmHHGfGgOUxusHTq hope that helps!
Hi Chris Form Vac wars The video you sent me is the competition video for the best air purifier, you said in it that a seperate review will be coming for it, when will that be? @@VacuumWars
I’d like to see this tested against the Hizero. Specifically, whether either has an advantage on mopping stains after vacuuming since the Hizero doesn’t require vacuuming first.
…. Seriously, almost anything will outperform any Dyson on any task! The Hyzero doesn’t require vacuuming or use vacuuming in the first place… so it’s already beat Dyson at the game.
@@lukeclifton4392I have the Hizero specifically because it vacuums and mops at the same time. I’m planning to buy a robot vacuum to do the lion’s share of the vacuuming when we move to our larger place next year, so I’ll be more interested in mopping abilities than vacuuming. So far the Hizero has worked well, though I did have to modify it slightly to work on our hardwood floors. Dry stains and water spots are dealt with OK, but do require some additional passes now and then.
I suspected the flexible hose in Dyson motorized heads was multi-purpose: the obvious role as a hose for the suction, but I suspected a secondary role as a "spring." Since there is no suction on the Submarine head, but they include the flexible hose, now I know!
I didn't think Dyson's model range and naming could get any more confusing, and yet they managed it.

Hi Gino, one post, FYI.
@@justinwang3427 one post?
It's a shame that my V15 doesn't work with the submarine attachment. Great results from it though.
So basically the mop attachment can be sloted into a wand, into a 3D printed handle with batteries in it connected directly to the power teminals and it would have the same effect.
No wonder they dont sell it separately. Seems almost trivial to get it working without a Dyson. That is unless it doesn't operate without communicating to the vacuum (they are doing some communication which allows the vacuum to stop its suction)
I wonder if it is okay to add liquid floor cleaner soap to the water in this attachment.
Could you test it on a more textured floor? Like tiles that are not completely flat (plus how well it cleans the space between tiles).
It doesn't clean the space between tiles. I have to use the steamer on regular flat floor to clean some more because they are still dirty
Why the hell couldn't they make this an addon for the Gen 5 instead of releasing a whole new model?
Very cool! But I don’t think this would replace a standard Wet/Dry vac that has suction. Roborock Dyad Pro Review? Or a competition of the best wet/dry vacs?

Hi. I did not understand well about the compatible with V15 Detect absolute. I have this model and wants to buy additional tool - this submarine head. Is it ok? Thank you
add: My head of filter is violet
No, you cannot
How does it go with stains/messes in Tile Grout?
Anyone else’s heart drop seeing the spider hairball around 5:30? Happy Halloween everyone
I've been waiting for this review! Not even sure why. If I mention buying another vacuum, my husband may have a heart attack 😂
is there a way to reset the dust counter?
Vacuum is good. The floor washer is bad.
My new vacuum seems to have been used as the counter was showing a lot of usage and a quarter filled dirty bin.
I checked the price and it's about 50% more than I paid for the Dyson V11 Absolute in 2019... which already was far from cheap.
I think I'll stick to the V11 and the inexpensive steam mop combo I've got.
I did a similiar thing. I bought a gen 5 at discount price and have a steam cleaner. Surely using boiling steam is more hygienic than using cold water.
We live on a hobby farm
So the issue is
Fine dirt
Fur
Dust
Flooring is
Tile
Polished concrete
Linoleum
Some large area rugs
I have a shop vac but it does a poor job on dog fur and fine dust.
I know mopping is still a must but my mops do the brunt of the work.
What should I get to speed up cleaning?
Thank you
So all it does is provide power from its batteries to the head through its prongs then.
Does the electronics turn the suction off or is it making the loud noise even when only turning the rollerbar?
Also anyone found a good use for the Particle Count Graph on the display?
I guess the first or second uses can be informative but you'd just get used to suction going up or down when the same is achieved.
I'd like to see people's uses for it. It'll be interesting.
So ignoring the mop function is it comparable with the v15 or the gen5 ? It appears to be the v15. Given the gen5 is a step up from the v15 this would be a step backwards for vacuuming
We have 4 cats and 2 dogs in 3 room flat 60m² 😅 that's why we bought V15absolut detect year ago. Best vacuum which we had 🙂
that's 650 square feet for Americans
You forgot to mention the most interesting point: the attachments are all model specific. I have the Gen 5 Outsize (or what ever - the bigger one) and they have identical attachments but the submarine is keyed to prevent swapping attachments.
Also batteries are NOT interchangeable either. 😢
Thank you
Are you serious?? What the actual fk kind of anti consumer trash is that
it will be interesting to see a review of the Roborock Dyad Pro as well, as it has the most interesting specs out of all Mopping Vacuum Cleaners
Kind of disappointing that they are going to make you buy an entirely new vacuum to get this feature. At their price point it could have easily been made to be an add on to the v15 at least
Sucks consumer wise but a arguably a good business move.
@@TinkerTailorSoldier1 I believe that is debatable. Are people who own a Dyson Vac going to shell out big money for a glorified mop? As per this review, it isn't any better than what is on the market now for a much lower prices
@@scpatl4now
It most certainly is debatable.
I personally think they would be able to move a $300/$400 mop head by itself rather than a whole new system.
However, if it is a programming issue, how do you think they can rectify that?
The older vacuums don’t have wifi. They can’t send a firmware update OTA.
That means everyone would have to send their vacuums in and someone would have to hand program or swap out chips.
Even if people paid for it, what would be easier… normal operations for a new product launch that they’ve done several times before…
…ooooor handling thousands if not tens of thousands of units coming in and out and having to have an American or European staff to make the changes. If not domestically, send them back to the Philippines where they were made?
No, just have a new product.
I don't think it could be retrofit easily. For this attachment to work, the vacuum needs to supply power to the floor head without the suction motor running. Older Dyson vacuums most likely weren't designed/programmed to be able to do that since there wasn't a reason for them to ever turn off the suction motor prior to the release of this attachment.
I agree or just make a wet mop for 60% the price
I don't find anywhere to buy the Submarine + Absolute model (the blue filter one) Even the link in the description points to a violet one, without Absolute..
And also I want to understand if I can use detergent for the mop facility?
I would love to know how it works on dark gloss hardwood floors and the smudge/grease marks that inevitably show up everywhere. If it handled those I would definitely buy.
I.dont think it does. I have toddler spit and breastmilk drops on the floor dried out....and it doesn't clean them up
The back keeps changing in the video does the one with the crevices tool have the thing where you press the button once to turn on on or the one where you keep holding I just ordered one and I’m curious
I always sweep, vacuum and mop bathroom and kitchen floors. I think with the submarine and other heads (not sure which one) I could reduce this to two passes. Hair in the bathrooms is the killer.
You should buy and review the shark stainstriker carpetxpert carpet cleaner and shark stainstriker portable sot cleaner
Thank you for the report! great video. Just one question, please, do you need to be pushing all the time the action botton so that the machine works? or you push it just once and then the machine works all the time? If you need to be pushing, maybe the finger gets tired. Thank you so much.
I've had dyson vacuums for years, you have to keep the trigger pressed. However i never found it tiring or problematic for my fingers or arms ( for reference, am a skinny woman).
Do you have a video on how to detect if your battery is going on the Dyson? I have had a Dyson for 5 years and I think the battery is going but I’m not sure and I don’t want to spend 150 bucks on a battery if that’s not the issue. I have done all their tests that Dyson recommends online and every time I do a test the result is different so I had to come to vacuum wars with your vast knowledge of Dyson vacuums to ask. Thanks in advance 😊
Great review, helped me decide for Submarine
Glad we could help!
The whole point of these Dyson's is to save you time with it lightweight cordless features so vacuuming before mopping is a waste of time for large spaces. I would still use Dyson as a vacuum until they refine the mopping features.
Can you put floor cleaner in the water or will it cause problems?
Great review! Can you put soapy water in the mop head or just plain water?
Someone asked this on Dyson's UA-cam chanell. They said only plain water should be used.
I'm pretty sure you can use pine sol...just dilute it before putting in the tank.. then refill the tank with warm water and run the machine so it cleans the tubing and water outlets.
On the note of electric mops, please test the Hizero f500
I’m a little bit confused. Can I used the mop with MARBLE and wood floors and change it for use on carpet?
Does the motor stop when using the submarine attachement? If so is the battery life better?
Yes. The vacuum motor stops when this attachment is in use. This is the so called "programming issue" Dyson is referring to. Apparently this is not programmed prior models and therefore older models have no way to detect this attachment and stop the vacuum motor. But its stupid that this is not compatible with gen 5 detect, which is supposed to be their flagship model now.
The submarine attachment also has its own motors. So when its attached, the motor for the microfiber rollers are the ones rotating and vacuum head is basically acting as a power bank.
@@PurushNahiMahaPurush That makes sense thanks
will this machine replace my mop or anything to mop the floor with? or do I still need a rug for the stains?
can we get a new test that rates how easy it is to clean the filters/whole machine?
Yes, I agree. The difficulty of cleaning out vac mops is not shown in the majority of reviews I’ve watched.
Would love to see this compared tineco
Still awaiting your review of the J9+ roomba combo!
Just to let you all know that the runtimes shown here are not based on the average user in the home and after having the machine for several months!! I have a V15 and I only get around 18 - 20 minutes when using on carpets!! What is not mentioned anywhere here is that batteries degrade over time and so the user will not get the same run time they did when the machine is brand new. Run time as a handheld on Medium mode is 40 minutes when new and then reduces to around 33 minutes and this will reduce further as the battery wears. Another issue I have encountered is the DLS Dynamic Load Sensor does not work the same when the filter gets dirty, so result in the particle counter showing the machine picking up significantly less than when the filter is washed. The Dynamic Load Sensor stops detecting that I am on carpets as the filter gets dirty and so stays on the 'hard floor setting' resulting in poorer performance. So proves that Dyson do lose suction as the filter pores clog, just like how a bag vacuum loses suction as the pores clog. I feel that I have been lied to by Dyson all these years with their No Loss Of Suction claims!!
Makes sense to vacuum before mopping surely!
Perfect review!! Concise and super clear--thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Waiting for a review of Tineco One floor S7 Combo when it hits the market. Hope you will have a chance to test it.
Can you put floor cleaner in the mop? I don’t know why anyone would want to mop with just water
I'm so glad i did my research as i wanted the submarine mop head. Have to admit out of the box it looks like a high quality product and i'd be pissed after forking out so much money if it wasnt. Everything from the quality of the stand to the packaging. ✌️
How is it for reaching under sofas,beds and hard to reach places?
Great review. I’d like to know how much floor space the electric mop can cover before needing to be empty? Please review the Eufy Mach V1 Ultra.
Can the submarine attachment double for bathroom floor and wall ccleaning? 😅
Will you be making a video about the X2 Omni?
We are looking at that one as well as a handful of new releases now, so the initial reviews will be coming out one at a time starting next week. Thank you for asking.
IMPORTANT QUESTION: Does the Submarine head attachment work with the 'V15 Detect Absolute' version? If so why cannot i find this combination to purchase over the internet?
It doesn't
@@Josipban it does work. Ignore my message
Hello! Thanks so much for the review!
I have a question: What does SV means and whats the difference between SV47 and SV22?
Is the Gen5 the new top model? If so, I find it strange that they did not add a submarine option to it. Maybe it will come later as an option to purchase separately? If not I find this a bit stupid from their side.. since I am not buying another machine for that price in at least 5-10 years.
So one thing I think you covered but want to confirm. Since it is two stage, does this model work just as well attaching the vacuum head and then attacking the submarine head for mopping. In other words, you don’t have to buy the v15 vacuum then the submarine one. As the sub can do both jobs just changing the heads. (I’m super confused and bad at articulating, apologies😂)
Yeah mine came with both heads, vacuum and mop
Great review thank you!!!
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Since the Submarine head doesn’t vacuum, does the main motor still spin loudly? Or is it only the Submarine head motor that’s working?
I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’ve been looking forward to this review😂 I have V15 Detect from costco
Hope you enjoyed it!
This man truly does gods work
Can you add some type of cleaning solution to the submarine (like pine sol etc..) but diluted instead of just pure water?
What electric mop would you recommend for clinker floor normally cleaned with robot everyday but the seams are dirty thus I think it needs some kind of pressure to get down and then suction to get it up.
So with the mop, there is no need for the cleaning solution?
Can you use a mild soap/detergent mixed in with the water for the submarine attachment and if so, how well would it work?
Video starts at 3:20.
is the submarine superior to the tineco?
can I buy the subermarine wet head alone and attach it to my v15 detect extra (not absolu) ?
No way
I really wish they had made a mopping attachment for the new gen5detect.
If submarine head cleaning is done mechanical, without power from the battery, whats the programing part blocking them to sell it separately
Looking forward to your review on the Dyson washG1 wet mop😉
We hope it comes to the US!
I have both Shark Vertex Pro and Shark Stratos and I love both although the Stratos seems to have slightly more power and longer battery but either way they’re both a win! After trying many stick vacs, one being the Ryobi with double roller bars, the Sharks are hands down the absolute best for dog hair! I have a mini Aussie and a Husky Aussie mix, both of which shed constantly and especially during seasonal changes and have literally destroyed stick vacs like the Ryobi double bar with their intense fur. And yes, I always check my rollers to be sure nothing is tangled and the Ryobi was so bad I returned it as the motor stopped turning on after it’d clog or tangle, it clogged constantly over hair and I’d have to disassemble the damn thing but the absolute worst were the rollers would be so tangled I had to cut the hair out and rip it off as best I could to maintain… with the Sharks I’ve never had a clog, it seems to clean well and doesn’t eat rugs and has never tangled even during shedding season and my two have double coats so that’s really saying something. Sharks one downfall is it struggles to suck up on the sides but does better in the front but I’ll take that over tangles. Btw I just received my Black and Decker hand vac Flex with the dog hair tool that I think only QVC is selling… love it! It’s pretty powerful, I haven’t run it long enough to drain the battery because it’s powerful and makes cleaning quick but for me their little invention with the dog hair tool that’s this simple rubber thing with a hole in the center actually works! It works so well I won’t order anything else without that exact same dog hair tool! It’s super light weight, easy to hold with a stretchy hose but that dog tool makes it worth it over other hand vacs! I was skeptical but damn with a little manual back and forth motion that tool somehow gets the hair lifted off furniture or clothing or bedding and sucks it up like it’s nothing. FYI if someone needs a hand vac and dog hair management this is it!
Ive never tried shark products because i always thought Bissell were much better but im looking to try out other brands because one isn't enough for my dogs shedding. Have you compared the sharks to other vacuums such as the dysons?
once you try dyson you never go back, for hair or anything else :))
When are you reviewing the Deebot X2 Omni?
The million $ question is; Did you actually try the submarine on the other Dyson's? To me it looks like the attachment uses the vacuum for power only.
Is it like this LED light attachment you can add to the system, and the motor-head attachments doesn't work?
I don't get how this can be "programming issue"...
This model can turn off the motor so that it only provides electricity to the floorhead without any suction. Older models can't do that so they will stall out and turn themselves off
@@alex9621 Thank you.
Can you put floor soap/cleaner to clean the floor better? Or just water?
Is the Dysons 360 VIS Nav and The Dyson's Big and Quiet air purifier reviews comining out soon?
The 360 isnt available to purchase yet (we buy everything we review.) We have however reviewed the Big and Quiet and that one appears in this video here: ua-cam.com/video/zzHSI1S--FU/v-deo.htmlsi=bmHHGfGgOUxusHTq hope that helps!
Hi Chris Form Vac wars
The video you sent me is the competition video for the best air purifier, you said in it that a seperate review will be coming for it, when will that be? @@VacuumWars
We are finishing our review of the Dyson Vis Nav 360 today! Come back tomorrow at 4PM EST for our full review!
Submarine™ wet roller cleaner head not work on dyson v11 outsize?
it doesn't.
I’d like to see this tested against the Hizero. Specifically, whether either has an advantage on mopping stains after vacuuming since the Hizero doesn’t require vacuuming first.
…. Seriously, almost anything will outperform any Dyson on any task! The Hyzero doesn’t require vacuuming or use vacuuming in the first place… so it’s already beat Dyson at the game.
@@lukeclifton4392I have the Hizero specifically because it vacuums and mops at the same time. I’m planning to buy a robot vacuum to do the lion’s share of the vacuuming when we move to our larger place next year, so I’ll be more interested in mopping abilities than vacuuming.
So far the Hizero has worked well, though I did have to modify it slightly to work on our hardwood floors. Dry stains and water spots are dealt with OK, but do require some additional passes now and then.
I suspected the flexible hose in Dyson motorized heads was multi-purpose: the obvious role as a hose for the suction, but I suspected a secondary role as a "spring." Since there is no suction on the Submarine head, but they include the flexible hose, now I know!
I'd love to see a shootout of this and other options that are available as well as mop attachments for Dyson stick vacs
What kind of soap or cleaning detergents would u recommend for this? Dyson says none foaming..
