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.

    Light and efficient. Easy to use. I like how it tells you what kind of dirt your picking up. Only minor issues is it dosen't pivot to well when you bring it close to you.

    We were looking for a cordless vac and went to the store to look at the options. Best Buy had so many brands and options on display and helpful associates to help us make our decision. This vacuum makes cleaning upstairs and downstairs so much easier.

    After purchasing different brands of vacuum cleaners this tops all of them. This vacuum picks up anything and the detect feature is awesome. I will not ever buy another brand

    Not the best

    I feel like it pushes a lot of dirt around instead of picking it up. I feel like for $1000 it should pick up little pellets of cat food. I’ve been using it for over a year now and I use it like a broom… pushing things I know it won’t pick up into a pile. It definitely works better on “boost” mode but that only lasts 5 minutes until you have to charge again. I love the cordless aspect of it but it doesn’t hold a charge for very long.

    Very good but $550 great? My first Dyson and yes it sucks. It picks up dirt like it should. The battery with regular vacuuming will never last 60 minutes. Maybe on eco mode but who wants that, give me power get job done. Easy to care for and clean. Very light and easy to use.

    Works great and comes with a lot of attachments so you can choose the right one for carpets, wood floors, upholster, etc. and is lightweight and easy to use.

    The vauum takes up much more space than the original and it actually isn't as strong for my old home wide plank pine floors! Even on max it doesn't suction as well as my original one. WAY TOO much $ to waste. The laser thing is cool but it shows particulars even after mopping so not sure I trust it. Also, all the parts do not attach to a wall mount and so you have parts on the floor that you trip over (not a reason to not purchase, but for the price they should think of these things, IMO). I have my original one that I replaced the battery and still perfer! I'm very surprised. I just hope Best Buy will help us return this when I go into the store. IDK. Not pleased,
