The latest updated list of all of the cordless vacuums we recommend: https://www.consumeranalysis.com/guides/cordless-vacuums/best-cordless-vacuum/

In this video we compare the Dyson V8, V10, V11, V12, V15, Gen5detect, Gen5outsize, and Outsize.

We compare each vacuum’s surface level pickup (on carpet and hard floors), deep cleaning ability, raw power (CFM and suction), long term suction (flour clog test), debris containment (fog test), battery life, and ease of use (weight, handling, control, and dust bin size).

Great video! Could you confirm if the chargers are dual voltage? 110-240. I really want to buy a dyson but in my country we use 220v

@jpt4409 says:

We recommend the most expensive one, followed by the 2nd most expensive and wait for it… the next most expensive one!

@Amybnuy says:

the soft fluffy one gets sooooo full of hair sooo fast. the little wheels are so full of hair and don't spin. it still works but it's hard to push on the floor…

@grabinf says:

Thanks for this really great video. It's difficult to keep track of all the differences between the various models. Your video gathers all the information and presents it in easy to understand charts.

@AlessandroCasto says:

I have all of them. Basicly all you need is a v11 with the new motorbar, go for an extra battery. Or buy the shark stratos with 2 battery wich cost less with same performance.

@Zoe-ty3kz says:

Hey great video! Just went to the Dyson website: seems! There are a lot of replacements batteries can buy, including V8. Is this correct? Thanks!

@Zoe-ty3kz says:

Great video! It almost explained the informations what iv been seeking for! I’m thinking 12 detect or Gen5 outsize, is it easy to replace the extra battery for Gen5 outsize? Thank you! ❤

Great video! What about submarine models?

Right out of the box, our Dyson Gen5Absolute had a significant rattle coming from the carpet cleaning head. Customer service conceded that the part is out of stock with no date for when it will be available (this is a HUGE problem with Dyson), so the unit had to be replaced. Dyson offered to ship us an exchange as soon as UPS received the defective unit. We recorded this conversation. Nevertheless, the next day, after we delivered the defective unit to UPS, customer service informed us that this was untrue. Dyson would not do an immediate exchange, but would ship a new unit only after it received and processed the unit, which would take up to 3 weeks (while Dyson sat on our money and the warranty triggered by our initial purchase continued to run.) In short, Dyson lied. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was assured that supervisor would call me back. No call. Dyson lied again. Even before we bought the unit, we got a bad taste of Dyson’s honesty. Customer service assured us that Dyson would price-match QVC’s sale price. This, too, proved to be untrue. Yet another lie. The vacuum may be great, but beware of Dyson. False assurances and unavailable replacement parts are a REAL problem.

For anyone watching, do not buy Dyson. Just go look up their customer service reviews, the worst company I've dealt with.

@elderberry-hamster says:

Excellently produced video with clear test details, results and comparisons. Very helpful. Thank you so much.

@magnoliaspeaks9528 says:

I need a vacuum that can reach under low beds and couches. Which vacuums meet this requirement?

@k2229 says:

Thank you for your analytical reviews. Hey next time you get the chance could you review the SHARK upright stratos?

@lukas______ says:

Have you guys done any tests on ryobi or shark cordless vacs?

@Tar0245 says:

The Gen 5 models have a different power connector as well. Great video though. I really enjoy these!

@arturyasnov8434 says:

I have the dyson omni glide and I like it! It light and tiny. Two brushed make a good job. The only dislike from my side is a bin size.
After using few days, I check the filter and it prefectly clean.

@septic1337 says:

Thanks for the great video! I am still stuck between the V12 and Gen5. Small apartment with mostly hard floors, where the V12 would be enough. But i also want to use it for cleaning the car regularly. So, is the power of the V12 enough for the car, or should i go for the Gen5? The Gen5 would "only" be 180€ more than the V12 where i live.

@Yon150 says:

Great video! Will you be doing a video on the Dyson BP04 purifier soon?

@AlexBerg1 says:

Awesome video! Including the chart comparing the Dysons across other brands was a nice touch!
