It’s worth noting that Dyson is a family business and a private company, distinct from being public, like many of their competitors. This means the Dyson family own the company and have no shareholders. There’re no stock market or outside investor decisions needed, and they make all their own decisions internally. A public company’s primary objective is to become a profit engine for the shareholder investors, and so Dyson as a private company have no pressure to increase their shareholder profits by, say, 30% every year by cutting corners or skimping on product research and development—which is the most expensive thing. Their decisions can therefore be exclusively about the products, and with a long-term view, freeing them to invest hugely more in research and development, take risks, and create new things that are better—often at cost to them—and to target the very highest end of the premium market that is pioneering and progressive. What you therefore get is the highest quality and not some corner-cut, slap-dash, skimped product, pushed out at the expense of a customer, that a faceless corporation is quite happy to take advantage of for that little bit more profit for the greedy shareholders. Dyson’s is a fundamentally different philosophy to business, and is capitalism done much better, less regressively, and without the pollution of the corner-cutting greed element of shareholders. Dyson is not perfect, but it’s far more admirable once you’ve reflected on it and explains why its products are market-leading and everyone else copies, less effectively, and on the cheap—at your expense.
This channel is a gold mine. I kinda wish Dyson didn’t market these vacuums like the ultimate cleaning machine.(it is still a cordless vacuum) I hope that they make more Canisters with the same tech found on their cordless vacuums
I looked at getting other vaccumes, but when I realised that my v6 is still our family vaccume and works amazing and has always been reliable, I couldn't change brands. Just got this vaccume this week (huge upgrade from our v6) and I'm so so glad I stuck to dyson. You can just feel the quality, the power and just the simplicity of it all. We still use the v6 for our upstairs bedroom only now and still works a treat. I do go and try testing other brands, but I think you just can't go past a dyson.
I only just got the V15 Detect Extra, I opted to get this version that came with the HEPA filter, detail cleaning attachments (including the amazing dusting brush) and the built in crevice tool, which I think is great. I think I would still go for V15 over the newer version because it is about £190 cheaper than the gen5 and is an excellent vacuum. I am admittedly jealous of the new battery, noise and improved filter but £660 was already a stretch for me.
THE biggest reason to splurge and get the G5d over the V15d is if you have dexterity issues. Hand fatigue from holding the trigger + the weight of the unit would be a valid reason in why you choose to purchase the G5d vs the V15d or V12ds. It seems Dyson is thinking about ergonomics and not only how their products are used, but are held as seen in the weight re-distribution balancing, and reintroduction of a power button, and redesigned grip with padding.
Very informative video. I'm curious about the laser vs LED lights. Brightness isn't the only important thing. I feel like the LED light has more diffuse scattering and lights up the floor and area instead of highlighting just the dust. What is your experience in real world use? (I get your point about methodical cleaning but it's very helpful when I miss a spot or to see just how much dust is in a tough to access spot)
Would this Dyson Gen5 be worth upgrading from the Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal + Cordless Vacuum Cleaner? I got it on sale for $399.00 At Costco and can return it (lifetime guaranteed money back or replacement model, if anything at all goes wrong) What extras features or performance would I be getting?
People in comments: I would never buy a vaccum cleaner for 800 euro!!!??! 🤬🤬🤬I will never pay that much to the Dyson! Also these people: New Iphone 14 Pro Max for 1900 euro 😍😍😍 Apple shut up and take my money! New shirt, jeans and sneakers for 600 euro, OF COURSE ADDIDAS. New (any modern car) for 60K euro, NO PROBLEM.
And yes I thinking about buying V15 or GEN5 and second one looks more interesting
I wonder if they wouldn't be better off pricing it $100 cheaper. The revenue from more sales at a lower price amy be more that that with the higher price. That $850 really makes it a niche product.
I recon the near £1k price tag is paying for the new battery factory. Amazing review I actually watched it twice which I don’t normally do 😂. I’ve got the v11 disappointed that if it accidentally falls it normally results in the trigger breaking 😢. I’m not going to get the gen5. Feel the the tool heads don’t match the vacuum unit yet. It’s sad that in Australia they get more tool accessories, but in the UK 🇬🇧 Dyson seems to have forgotten us as his own. Remember James most of us on here bought the DC01 and have been loyal customers.
I love the detail and thoroughness of all your reviews, this was no different. I've always been a super fan of Dyson and you've only made my appreciation grow. All I have bought over the last 8 years was Dyson and that's all I'll get now. And this is the only channel I'll go to for Dyson reviews.
at £850 this machine is reserved for the extreme vacuum enthusiast or exhibitionist. believe we are also getting to a point of diminishing returns, maybe i am just upset i just got a v15 a few days ago lol.
Such a good review as always i love my v15 but i would like to ask how is it possible that you vacuum your carpets on auto if i am not mistaken with the gates in the middle position but when i vacuum my not so thick carpet on auto the brushbar struggles a lot and most of the time stops. I know i can open the gates fully for it to not struggle but then i just dont feel like the vacuum is cleaning the carpet as great or does it have to do something with wattage in eu and usa? (Please excuse my mistakes i am from czechia)😊
Thanks for a great review! The higher voltage of the battery actually makes the machine more power efficient (or it allows them to use thinner wires keeping the losses same).
Indeed, the resistive losses in the conductors are equal to I^2*R, I being the current in [A], R being the resistance of the wires in [Ω], while the power in [W] is V*I, where V is the voltage [V]. Keeping the power constant and making the voltage 36/25.2-times higher means that the current now needs to be that many times lower a therefore the losses of the new model are (36/25.2)^2-times lower (assuming the same wiring so R cancels out).
Funny that (36/25.2)^2≈2.041 — it seems as if they decided to cut the losses in half!

Amazing technical and balanced review. Really appreciate the effort. Thank you
I find Unboxings very therapeutic 😀
13:33 omg 😂 😂
Massive watermarks on the video make the production quality appear so low.
This is an interesting official video released https://youtu.be/2tkOvs4TL3A

Hello great amazing review, can you tell me i own DYSON V15, can i use new laser from GEN5 DETECT for extra more visibility or it wont fit?
Are previous accessories compatible with this machine?
Is the Scratch-free dusting brush and extension hose for the v15 compatible with this?
Can’t find this on the Dyson site in the States 😢
This is a very informative video, thanks for the effort! Is it UK and Australia only for now?
wow. incredible review!!!

such amazing and detailed review👍👌👏💯😍

Do you know when this might come to the USA?
The TL;DR should have just been “Dyson Won. Prepare your wallet” haha 😂
Great video as usual. Love the detail.

That was fast. Great to see a review for this, hard to find anything else online. I think I will be waiting a while to upgrade me v11 then.😆

No running costs?! Those filters don’t replace themselves. (Nor do they last 12 months)
