    Got this for my wife because I thought it would be easier for her to use. She couldn’t believe it had so much power for its size. She has back problems and can operate it with ease. She uses it every day. Great vacuum.

    This is my 3rd Dyson and each has had it's own qualities. I have 2 dogs and need a lightweight, quick to use vacuum. I'm really pleased with this newest model. The run time is affected by power usage & Im getting used to that. The light on hard floors will really show you how dirty things are! I like the enclosed brush on stick for quick pick ups. Nice machine overall.

    This vacuum goes on forever. I myself have a hard time cleaning and convincing myself to clean but this vacuum makes it easy to do it every single night and can stand up to the dog hair created by 2 dogs. We switched out our regular vacuum for This and have had better results.

    This dyson delivers like the past units and then some. I love that you dont need to hold down the trigger to use it. I love that the lcd screen diaplays the timer sonypu know how much battery you have left. Heppa filter put this dyson way abbove the others. Was able to save money with the plus membership which made it even better. Definitely recommend

    I have a Dyson Cordless Pet V11 and use the boost mode on it. I decided to get the new Dyson because of performance. I used it first time this morning and the suction is unbelievable for the boost setting. I thought it was going to suck my carpeting up! The standard setting is good enough and the canister was full! My Gen 5 cleaned what my V11 was missing! Love it!

    Grey quality and functionality I replaced this item under the 5 year warranty I used to have a V15. That works great but didn’t last me not even 2 years. This new model is definitely nicer only problem I have it’s the weight definitely heavier the V15. Besides that everything else is great

    Where has this vacuum cleaner been all my life. What a wonderful way to clean and not have to drag cords with you from room to room. Doesn't have the power that the cord sweepers have, but still has enough power to do a beautiful job.I have 4 dogs and I'm impressed. You hit this sweeper out of the park.

    Before this vacuum a clear floor was a clean floor. Now a clear floor is a suspiciously dirty floor because of the green lazer highlighting every missed fur, hair, or dirt you may have left behind in one day.

    The Dyson Gen5detect is a stellar cleaner with excellent features, like its auto-calibrating vacuum power system. You’ll get one of the best cordless stick vacuums on the market if price isn’t a concern, but the cleaner’s premium performance comes with an equally premium price tag.
