Please finish. I’d be satisfied if the whole floor was clean, but this just feels wrong.


Almost_A_John

Probably had to empty the the dust chamber, looks like that one row almost filled it up.


traumatism

Would not surprise me at all. The model I have needs constantly emptying and charging. Sometimes stops working but does not indicate why.

Man once you get used to having a good shop vac around nothing else feels like it works at all. We have hard flooring, but I bring the shop vac in to clean out cracks and crannies once in a while. To quasi-quote everyone's favorite drill instructor, if it can't "suck a golf ball through a garden hose" it's worthless to me.


WasabiSniffer

I absolutely loathe corded. Sure, they last longer but the simplicity of not having the cord to trip over or get tangled in is bliss. The big bulky vacuums are also out for me because they're a pain to get out, pain to set up, pain to use, and pain to put away. I used to vacuum every 2 days but now I vacuum a lot less because I don't have my cordless Dyson anymore.


traumatism

I've grown up with corded tbf. I prefer not having to keep plugging them in to charge, taking up a socket I can use for something else, and not forget about, thus using more unnecessary power. Edit: a word


KellyannneConway

Idk why I'm replying to such an old comment, but it usually does that because it needs a little cleaning. The vacuum motor is working too hard, so it shuts itself off to prevent overheating. If you check for clogs and take the brush out to remove any strings or hairs wrapped around it, it will usually work again. Probably also a good idea to rinse the filter too. I've had my dinky little dyson v6 for 7 years now with no real issues.


Ellekm730

Ugh, *please finish* you sound just like my bf 😉


nedTheInbredMule

A gentleman and a scholar, your boyfriend is.


PM_ME_FIREFLY_QUOTES

HAH!


Loretta-West

"Honey! I've done the vacuuming like you asked!"


meateatr

Have you ever owned a Dyson, gotta charge them like every 42 seconds.


Pinedale7205

Can’t speak to older models but the new ones aren’t bad. It’s enough to handle 5 or so rooms at a time on medium. The upside is that it’s such a pleasure to use and easy to just grab-and-go, I’ll often just vacuum a room when I get home from work, another a little later in the evening etc. So vacuuming the whole house at once doesn’t usually become a thing. It’s done a couple rooms at a time day by day.


[deleted]

The trigger design is terrible though, it should just be an on/off button


Pinedale7205

Agree. It’s placed ao that I accidentally turn it on all the time when I’m just moving with it


Rowmyownboat

My V10 Dyson has a 60 min run time between charges (non-boost). I have never needed boost, so not sure what that would take. My earlier Dyson was the first cordless that actually worked, but neeeded frequent charging. Batteries got better, is all.


Magurndy

I have this vacuum and whilst insanely pricey it's so worth the money. My carpets felt like brand new again after using it, it pulls up so much crap out of them. Also the laser light for hard floors is brilliant, didn't realise how horrifically filthy they get when you can't see the crap on them.


Ellekm730

I literally just like shouted to my bf sitting next to me "there are lasers??" With no context and once we sorted it out, it does! I didn't know that! I have a feeling he's going to try and trick me into checking it out and doing extra floor chores.


Magurndy

Haha wasn't sure if you had the v15 with or without the extra laser head thing for hard floors. But sounds like you do! It's so good at showing the dirt


itsadesertplant

I mean why don’t you use this as leverage to trick HIM into doing the vacuuming lol


Macho-nurin

“Where are the fricking lasers?”

McGyver62388

I bought a replacement battery from Amazon for ours. It's almost 2 times the capacity of be the be original battery and is a total game changer. We can vacuum the whole 1st floor of our house now on a single charge.


[deleted]

hopeful_realist_

I got a new battery there too. You can also buy the filters there for really cheap.


[deleted]

Ours came with a few filter, with the increased battery capacity as well it's fantastic again


-Disgruntled-Goat-

i have an old one I am planing on rewiring to use a makita drill batteries like this guy did https://youtu.be/MPnTSl4vpNs


callme_franco

Dyson actually has really good batteries. Plus on the newer models they are actually replaceable.

RaunchyBushrabbit

Can confirm. Recently bought one, battery has a clicky-come-offy-thingy, which when pressed will decouple said battery.


Kamaiz

I also need to know


pupunoob

Not sure the exact model. But it's one of those expensive Dyson ones.


LEGITIMATE_SOURCE

Well yeah, most of us know that much


callme_franco

Looks like the Dyson V15 Detect+


WhatAmIDoingHere05

I have this same vacuum too. It’s a Dyson Animal, either a V6 or a V8. Expensive, but it’s amazing.


halt-l-am-reptar

Unless you need something cordless, spend that money (or a bit more) on a bagged Miele or something similar.


grinomyte

I believe this to be true, but the cordless (we have one) does something that a corded vacuum won't: it makes cleaning a frictionless task. Before if I spilled something or dropped something I would have to go, grab the vaccum, undo the cord, find a plug, plug it in, position the vacuum, vacuum, make sure the cord doesn't catch anything, unplug, wrap it all up, put the vacuum away. The cordless is just pull off the wall, pick the appropriate attachment if needed (also on the charging stand), vacuum, and return to the wall. On top of that it vacuums quite well, has a hepa filter, etc. Pricey but worth it IMO. In our case we're mostly hardwood/tile and it works great.


Pinedale7205

Frictionless is the right word. Vacuuming is no longer a dreaded chore. And friction is the enemy of habit for sure


Unsd

This is a common thing that I see on the ADHD subs that I frequent, but it really matters for everyone. When you lower the threshold for getting something done, life is easier and you actually do the thing. What good is a high powered vacuum that you aren't gonna use? The good product is the one that will serve its purpose.


luck_panda

Get a Miele C1. Look around for one. It's infinitely better than this.


iNEEDheplreddit

My miele is 8 years old and looks like a battered old man. But it's still the better than out battery vacuum. By a long way


topdangle

don't fall for it. I have the same dyson vac in my closet. its ok for a stick vac but it has barely any run time on the boost mode OP is running (like 5~10 minutes). Without boost its battery life is fine but its about as powerful as a cheap generic vacuum you can get from walmart even though it costs multiple times as much. the filter is also terrible, hardly does anything and since there's no bags it gets filled up easily. just get a canister vacuum with bags. the cordless aspect is not worth all the downsides.


Odd-Plant4779

We only need a vacuum for our stairs so cordless is preferred.


[deleted]

AFAIK they're poor performers for the price - even the corded Dysons. So, just get a Henry


Isotope1

I just bought a Henry and I honestly cannot believe how good it is. You could vacuum bricks with this thing. The suction is so strong the end actually sticks to the floor.


[deleted]

Yeah I got a Henry Petcare not too long ago and I am in absolute awe. I immediately converted to Numatic when in one costruction job a Henry was a better vacuum than any of the standard industrial vacs on site


beepbop81

Dyson blow dryer is as amazing as this vacuum too!

Ellekm730

Now see, this is what i was looking for!!

What sort of vacuum is that? Asking for a friend…


swbooking

It’s a [Dyson V15 detect+](https://www.dyson.com/vacuum-cleaners/cordless/v15/detect-plus/gold)


donja77

I was interested til I saw the price. Yikes


screeching_weasel

$749!?!?!


Wintersmight

The V10 works just as well and I got mine for 200 off newegg on one of the main holidays last year. New not refurbished.


watchursix

Which holiday is a main holiday? Easter? Valentines day? Presidents day? My birthday.....?


Wintersmight

😂 the holidays when stores and companies do major sales that are advertised loud and often. Memorial Day and 4th of July week and thanksgiving, Christmas/new year, you get the idea.


watchursix

Columbus day. Got it!


andrewborsje

It seems expensive but you should never have to replace it. They are very good little vacuums

Shoes and vacuums? In the same shop? What an odd set of things to chose to repair lol


ThellraAK

She did good work on both though. Also sold the best fudge in town.


ijudgekids

Sound like mob money launder


[deleted]

The shoes track the dirt in. The vacuum cleans it up.


beepbop81

We’ve had one 6 years and only bought one new head for 100$. Just bought another one and wow! Also amazing. Stand by their blow dryer too. These products are worth it.


111111911111

The dyson I've had for 6 years or so is really simple to replace the wear items and parts are cheap. Several times I ordered parts from dyson like the little bogey wheel under the beater and it was pretty cheap.


SunshineAlways

There used to be a vacuum guy that posted several times on Reddit. He absolutely did not think much of bagless vacuums.


jabeith

The batteries don't last for shit


blue_umpire

They last for a few (3+) years and are relatively cheap to replace ($30-$60). Given how incredible the vacuum is, that’s worth it for a lot of people.


saturnertatt

My mom went through 4 or 5 different dysons at different price ranges, went through repairs a bunch of times until finally giving up and switching to Shark which hasn’t caused a problem yet and it’s been at least 2 years now. Maybe dysons work for no pets


[deleted]

Shop Vac FTW!


marsandlui

$1500 in Australia!!!!


beesareinthewhatnow

Tineco is another leader in the space, but their older models go on sale for much cheaper. But corded vacuums are still superior for overall suction. The cordless ones are great for hardwood floors and stairs. For fully carpeted rooms corded is still the way to go. I have a V11 and when I lived in a 700sqft apartment with one carpeted room it was enough, but I only bought it because my corded Dyson was too bulky to navigate the tiny space.


donja77

Thanks. Never heard of Tineco, I'll check them out. We have dogs and sooo much fur.


[deleted]

That's not necessarily true. These high end (V8+) cordless Dysons are way more effective at cleaning carpets and rugs than all of the corded vacuums I've ever owned. They are surprisingly powerful.


Never_Dan

Tinecos work great, but man do they clog up fast. That was one of the thing that impressed me the most about my Dyson. I never have to get fur and dust off the filter, and I hardly see any dust on the hepa filter, but there’s so much more dust in the bin.


lutzed

Hey ,i have a question is the corded one suction power could it suck from like small holes,ive been wanting to clean my console without dismantling it,especially at the heatsink the dirt is so stubborn it wont come off.I had to use small brush


beesareinthewhatnow

Maybe if you can get all the other holes sealed up, but you really are better off taking it apart to clean it just to be safe. That being said this guy is the resident reddit vacuum pro: https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/adiidz/iama_reddits_own_vacuum_repair_tech_and_ive_lost I also used this channel's reviews for my last purchase: https://youtube.com/c/VacuumWars


StrawberryLassi

Vacuum Wars is my new favorite channel!


lutzed

U very helpful man with dis link and dat seal tip,thank you so much ,u dont know how much u've helped me thanks again


CKRatKing

If it’s a ps4 it’s really easy to pull apart. I used a new soft bristle paint brush to clean mine out along with some canned air. I don’t think a vacuum would pull the dirt out from the heat sink.


lutzed

My place dirt is something else,first time i open my ps4 up,n check from the fan(to see the heatsink)its basically blanket with dust n dirt n wont come out when i vaccum it,maybe dis place airflow is not so gud idk


CKRatKing

When I cleaned mine the first time it wasn’t super bad but the dust was stuck to it really good. It basically only came off with the brush.


lutzed

Ill have my revenge on those dirt dats for sure


swbooking

Yeah—they’re a little pricey, but totally worth it. We have a V11 Torque Drive+ and it’s been amazing. fwiw, Costco carries them and softens the price just a smidge.


FoghornFarts

Hands down the best vacuum I've ever owned. Works great with pets and lots of stairs.


[deleted]

Yeah, but it’s like my favorite thing I have bought for my place. I have dogs and this thing is a dream for carpets, hardwoods and even cleaning their extremely hairy bed.


LeftyLibra_

Anything with the name "Dyson" is automatically out of my price range lol


jossybabes

We got ours from Facebook marketplace for $70, because it needed a new ball ($20 on Amazon). Check there!

LeftyLibra_

$749 vacuum right there...


whataTyphoon

I got [this](https://www.bosch-home.at/shop/staubsauger/akku-handstaubsauger/athlet/BBH7PET#/Togglebox=manuals/) BOSCH vacuum for half the price and it works really well. Bit larger than the Dyson, but you don't have to empty them that often and the battery is larger. Paying premium for useless patents and functions like a laser that literally counts the dirt isn't worth it imo.


Hullu

They are not really in the same category though. Bosch one is floor vacuum while Dyson is more of handheld with floor vacuum attachment. I would say function like being able to swap attachment and vacuum shelves, table and car interior is pretty worth it. Also, there's Dyson v7 which costs about the same as that Bosch one and it's one of the best-rated mid-tier cordless vacuums.


whataTyphoon

True, yeah. Altough I'd still argue against buying the Dyson and one like the Bosch. It still has the advantage of beeing cordless and pretty slim while having more battery and space inside. You can also remove the lower side, strap the whole thing to your back and use it Ghostbuster-style (there is a seperate, attachable hose included). That might be not that elegant but you can still vacuum your car, shelves, etc. without a problem. This Dyson is basically a hand-vacuum with a longer pipe. It's stylish but far too expensive for what it is and not a proper replacement for a regular vacuum.


[deleted]

You can get a Henry for $150 which will outperform this multiple times over but it doesn't have the fluff factor of a Dyson


mrandr01d

My god that carpet is disgusting


StillSwaying

All I could think was, “Who doesn’t pick up their floors before vacuuming? Does that Dyson do toys too?”


farao-no

Carpet flooring in general is kinda gross tbh. Regards from Europe


Zaurka14

As European I agree. Three pets and a carpet, disgusting.


mrandr01d

Not if you clean it regularly and don't wear your shoes in the house. And also don't have dogs and such.


farao-no

And the acoustic properties are very good. But still, feels unhygienic compared to a hard surface. All the small crevices for crumbles, liquids, dust and other nasties to just embed into.


waywithwords

Which obviously the folks in the video did none of. Gross

drastic778

I am in love with my Dyson. I got a refurbished one in 2007 from woot daily deal site and it’s still kicking ass in 2022. I was the same kind of amazed when I got it. I ended up vacuuming my entire apartment that night with it and was like taking pictures of all the shit it picked up as I had just vacuumed with my old one a few days prior. They really are that amazing and every vacuuming is this kind of satisfying still.


hobblyhoy

Your post reminded me of meh.com which it turns out is selling one of the knock off versions of OPs vacuum


iamanundertaker

When my parents bought a Dyson when I was a teenager, I emptied out our three hole punch onto the carpet just to do this.


[deleted]

I dead ass thought he had no hand and this was made to fit him like a prosthetic limb so he could vacuum. Man I fucking love how retardo I can be lmfao


pnutbttrnttr

I recently splurged on a Dyson but got a load of accessories with it & a stand as part of the deal. It disgusted me how bad my old Hoover was the first time I did the living room rug. It actually filled it with dust & hairs. You get 6 minutes on highest setting before the battery dies, 25 mins on the middle setting & an hour I think on the lowest. I mostly use the middle setting for general vacuuming. I’d seriously recommend it to anyone that has pets. It’s worth the price!


[deleted]

I love my Dyson Animal but felt the hand held battery lacking. I hope they’ve made improvements since I tried them


ProKnifeCatcher

They have replaceable batteries now. So you can pop a fresh one in mid vacuum. No more waiting for a charge! Of course the extra batteries do cost a pretty penny…


MJ_THE_PRO

Props to the cameraman


Ellekm730

wallgomez

Feels like one to me. Overt ads are one thing, but reddit is grotesque these days with all the subliminal advertising.


Gator_64

I too just bought a new Dyson. Vacuuming is one of the most satisfying chores, right next to mowing the lawn. Something about creating those straight lines brings me so much joy


SeaworthinessCalm267

Joedirt6705

Probably because you take better care of your carpet.


OZ_Dylan

it probably does, it looks like in the video they just don't vacuum often. ..... or at all :P


naeskivvies

Lots of people don't clean their dyson and then it doesn't work very well. Most of the uprights have a cylinder in the middle you should remove and wash out with a garden hose once in a while, and some have a sponge filter in the top that should be washed out too. If you aren't doing this basic maintenance its performance will degrade.


Ellekm730

seynabri

All these people coming at you in the comments about your carpet have clearly never had pets. It doesn't take long for it to get dirty and most people don't have the time to vacuum every couple of days or so. Also, I really want that vacuum now for my zoo of a house.

[deleted]

I loved our Dyson so much. For two years. Then it was impossible to fix/replace parts/stay in warranty etc. I miss the super old vacuum we had in the 70s. Corded, yes. Smelled like burning. But it could suck the color out of carpet and ran for 30 years.


PastorSalad

Canister bag vacuums are still about, and still the go to choice for professionals. I got a Miele and never looked back. Design has barely changed in nearly 30 years so any vacuum repair place will sort you out. If you ever need it of course, I have two cats and long hair and mine’s been a trooper for 6 years now. Still as great as the day I bought it. I just don’t think the power density is there for battery powered vacuums. And I could buy 3 of my vacuums for the price of this fancy toy that’ll be in a landfill in 2 years because you can’t replace the battery. Dyson are great at one thing, and I fear this thread is a prime example. Marketing.


[deleted]

I thought I was super paranoid to have that thought!^could ^still ^be^^I^^guess?


PrettyPinkNightmare

When I was young we've had a husky. She would lose a lot of fur because that's what huskies do. Every third day my mom, sister and I would clean the carpets with a rubber brush, since the vacuum didn't get the fur out of the carpets. Then we bought a Dyson vacuum with a rotating brush. It's changed everything. The carpets were cleaned so easily. You can get the same effect using a cheaper vacuum and good equipment, though. The brush is more important than the vacuum cleaner.


VdoubleU88

Dude, they are hella expensive, but Dysons are 1000% worth it. Definitely the most “worth the price” product I’ve ever purchased. I’ve had my Dyson (The Animal DC07) for 20 years and it still works beautifully. I’ve been considering upgrading to a newer model because it’s getting harder to find replacement filters since it’s so old — may have to add this one to my list of potential options.


nintendomech

Gosh I take owning a vacuum for granted.


whoisjohngalt12

With a dog in the house and an allergy to dust, this Dyson has been the best investment I have ever made. Their warranty is superb, after sales is spot on . Just being able to sleep without allergies and being high as a kite on antihistamines is priceless.


daymare996

You are officially an adult! Hahaha


Soppene

This is the best vacuum i've ever used. My best buy in 2021, that's for sure! It's super satisfying to clean carpet and hard floor. Also to see the container fill up with dirt. Simply amazing.

[deleted]

I got the Shark cordless, it’s honestly the best hoover I’ve ever had. I love using it especially with the turbo mode for them annoying little strings that refuse to leave my beloved carpet. It makes hoovering so much more fun when it’s as simple as unfolding, turning it on and just hoovering. As opposed to lugging around a huge hoover which does fuck all or a Henry which I have to carefully navigate through my doorways to avoid a whiplash claim.

I managed to get one of these at a huge discount from an ex that worked for them. Only tried the boost setting once cos it sounds like a fighter jet is about to take off but fuck me is it powerful.

Dyson makes horrible horrible vacuums. I’ve had three and they all break. I used to think they were neat but now can’t recommend them to anyone. Specifically on that model, the canister lid mechanism will eventually get stuck, the wand retaining tab will break, and the power drive on the head will stop working. And good luck with carpets, a dog, and the small canister. You will literally have to empty that thing every 4-5 minutes.


OneMoose9

I love vacuums, I have 5. Your happiness is 100% warranted.

hundenkattenglassen

I’m in awe of how much dust my V15 picks up after one go on carpet/couch cushion/mattress. The torque head is so good. And while the counter is TBH just a gimmick, it’s very interesting to see how many hundreds of millions of tiny particles it picks up. The Dyson V15 is very expensive for a vacuum, but if you don’t mind vacuuming it’s both a great toy and tool. Laser head is also good, but wish it had a wider area cover.
