Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the lightweight design, powerful suction, and ease of use as significant advantages of the V12 Detect Slim Cordless Vacuum. Many appreciate the long battery life and the laser feature, which helps to highlight dust and debris. However, some users point out that the dustbin is on the smaller side and that the price point may be a deterrent for some buyers. A few also noted concerns about filter maintenance.

    Love the Dyson detect! For a handheld battery vacuum it’s wonderful. The lazer feature really makes you realize everything that’s being picked up and what you never knew needed to be vacuumed. The multiple heads make vacuuming any surface a breeze. The only reason it’s not a 5 star is the capacity, it’s enough but it leaves you wanting more for those days were your vacuuming a lot. But that’s why they do have the larger capacity ones so just beware. All in all a great battery option.

    Worth the hype. Best purchase I’ve ever made. I have two dogs and a cat and it does so amazing at picking up their hair, dirt, litter, etc. I also love that it shows the amount of dirt it picks up, the battery life is perfect for my two bedroom apartment, and the GREEN LASER IS WOW. There is so much dirt and hair on your floors that you don’t see until the laser hits it

    I didn’t want to spend so much money one a vacuum and wound up spending 4 times more over the past year trying to find a vacuum to deep clean carpet steps…. I love my new besty Dyson. I have two dogs, nothing but sand for a yard and I am cleaning constantly to keep my LVP flooring from getting scratched from the sand. I had our carpets professionally cleaned mid November… Last night I used my new carpet shampooing “perfect for stairs”. I waited 24 hours and used my new Dyson V12 on the carpet steps for the first time after the “deep cleaning”…, The stairs picture I took last night … The debris on the white towel is what the Dyson sucked up a few hours ago. Need I say More!!!

    Dyson use to have a strong name for products of quality and durability. This seems to trend closely to the status quo for vacuums as it doesn't stand out in the market. Battery is adequate for my home, which consists of rugs, hardware floors, and two dogs. The Fluffy Optic head is fun to use but it gets soiled and there is no easy way to clean it. Emptying the canister with pet hair isn't easy as it embeds into the metal like filter and required manual pulling to remove. Communicating with Dyson directly is painful and will not meet any expectation you may have with premium product support.

    here comes the latest generation of dyson, Dyson V12 Slim is light, the whole thing weight about 5 pounds the experience while using the vacuum is also a lot better considering how light this vacuum is. i’ve always wanted to get a Dyson vacuum, now that I finally own one, I can fully test it out what these vacuum are all about. since it’s the slim version, the canister is a smaller than the other version they have, I do not find this as an issue considering right now I have 1700 sq ft condo, and I do prefer emptying the canister as soon as I finished vacuuming. being the slim version doesn’t less feature either, this V12 packs with the latest technology that dyson offers V12 does offer the screen on top to keep you informed on things that’s it’s being picked up while vacuuming. the data shows four graph. yellow for allergies, orange for microscopic dust, pink is for dust mites ( which is the main thing i’m interested about) and last purple for sugar. battery life timer is also will be displayed, battery life can last for an hr, really depending on how dirty your floor is and how hard the vacuum is working it’s self. you can hear the vacuum go louder depending if that surface might have a great out of dust. one the best feature of dyson v12 is the laser, the laser help you see dirt/ dust that you probably would miss by just looking at it, so far from my experience for a week, this laser for me is a must! it’s amazing how much this makes me feel like i’m fully cleaning my house and seeing all the dust I can clear out. Dyson V12 comes with 3 main brush head for vacuum, it comes with this new brush head that even hair doesn’t get tangled up, I was also impressed with that upon using the attachment and im glad that dyson created one and bundled it with V12 the button on top was a bit weird to me I was kinda used to have trigger button for vacuum, but overall I do like not having to hold the button just to start the cleaning, I believe previous dyson are all trigger pulls so if you prefer that, then that might throw you off or feel inconvenient. other than that this is one beautiful performing vacuum. it’s strong it has great power to clean anything you have at home. have multiple attachments to choose to help you with your everyday needs when it comes to cleaning. I highly recommend this for dyson lover and new user who want to experience it, it’s light weight, great tech under the hood. that I personally think it makes cleaning the house more fun while learning what potential dirty you have inside your home, the battery life also lasted longer than i would imagine, preferably i’d recommend keeping it on auto, your vacuum power will automatically adjust anyway. overall a great piece of tech to have at home
