What owners report

  • “I'm going on +3 trouble-free years with my V15. Ended up giving away my Hoover upright vacuum because of the flexibility and cleaning ability of the Dyson. I added additional accessories to help clean floor/ceiling and my vehicles. I have a plug in computer air blower that helps clean the fine particles when servicing. My wish list would be an On/Off switch and the option to add a shoulder strap. I sometimes need both hands to dust move Knick/knacks on a shelf or doing dusty blinds (I have the hose attachment).”

  • “My V11 died after 2 years; battery life was not the issue. It was the points of connection of the base to the main stick; the floor head (even after buying a new floor attachment) couldn’t work. I could not justify on buying an even more expensive Dyson.”

  • “We’ve had ours for a year and a half and it’s definitely losing suction. Yes, I do keep it clean. Have to use it on turbo just to get average suck.”

    “I have the Dyson v15 and I love it, however has anyone else had issues with the LCD button not working, the vacuum randomly cutting off on full charge, as well as the “detect” feature where the suction adjusts depending on how much dirt it detects not working?”
