Got my v12 two days ago considering with gen 5 and v15. I’m so happy with it . Not too heavy . All the model are good but the trigger and the weights considering I ended up getting the v12 . Thanks for review
So Rory to hear about the performance on Ruggables! I was all set to commit to the V12, but I have 3 Ruggables, so glad you pointed this out; guess I’ll go with a more classic corded Miele…
Thanks for the great video! I’m not thrilled about the more narrow floor attachments, but given the arthritis in my hands, the stay on button and light weight were more important. Mine is due to arrive this week and I can’t wait. It was $650 U.S. on Amazon, so I’m really hoping it’s worth it.
QUESTION ALL ? is the power button a game changer in the V12 and Gen5 or is the trigger fine and no issue in the V15.....thats why i am trying to rack my brain and pick between the three,,,.....2200 sq ft house total...mostly hardwood with various area rugs and one room has carpet....want something strong enough to clean car also.....thx for your review.....cheers from Canada
i am trying to decide between the V12 / V15 / GEN 5 / outsize plus.......have a 2200 sq ft house ..mostly hardwood floors except one room is carpeted then a few area rugs.......like the thought of being able to clean upper corners of the walls.....here in Canada the V12 is 899 V15 is 999 and the Gen 5 is 1199 and the Outsize plus is 1249......all in Canadian funds....which do you think we would be happy with ? we are 58 years old and bodies are getting old and sore...lol..plus i would want to have 2 batteries which is 145 to 199 each... thx cheers
The GEN five detect is pretty great… Although with that said, I am just about to review the new V15 detect submarine version. This one will add light mopping capabilities. It sounds like you could probably get away with a smaller vacuum. That is a bit lighter, and most of the Dyson ones either include a second battery or let you purchase an additional one.
I have a robot vacuum that picks up a lot of dirt. Then I hit it with this vacuum to fully clean the house. I got wood floor and tile. It really does a good job. It’s not expensive. It’s a good investment. Got it on sale too. Great review. Now I need to see how to clean the area where the dirt goes,
Hope it's okay that I ask you since I am considering getting a Dyson V12 for our home (150 m2, all wooden/tiled floors). I am uncertain if the battery power is enough - it says up to 60 minutes but in real situations will often be less than that, I know. What is your experience - would I be able to vacuum our house of 150 m2 (1600 square feet) in your opinion?
We have owned and still own several Dyson products. I can’t explain the level of frustration we are experience with Dyson Support in resolving a problem with our V12. In less than a year the Motorbar cleaner head is inoperable and doesn’t work. So far we have been sent two replacement cleaner heads. Both were the wrong heads. It’s has been such a time consuming experience, with any resolution in sight. We are looking into unloading and selling all of our Dyson purchases and will tell everyone we know to reconsider their own purchases.
Did I miss it? How do you talk about a battery operated vacuum without mentioning whether the battery is detachable and replaceable? She talks about charging "one of the batteries." How many batteries are there? An interesting review except for the battery issue.

I got a V12 and it is a decent cleaner. My only concerns are the dust gun like empty mechanism and the mostly useless max mode that runs only for 8 minutes and adds a major stress to the batteries.
Warning! No replacement battery for V12 seems to be available. I guess once the battery goes out you will have to replace the vacuum. This battery has been out of stock for at least a year. Did Dyson do this intentionally? We just purchased the vacuum but am disgusted because we cannot purchase a spare battery as Dyson recommends.
I must confront the first words out of your mouth because every Dyson vacuum cleaner is a hoover but every hoover (or Hoover) isn't called a Dyson. So yesterday the word synonymous with vacuum cleaners was 'hoover' and today the word that's still synonymous with a vacuum cleaner is a 'hoover'. Not a 'Dyson', as you said. My Miele CX1 Blizzard and my mom's 'Akitas' are called hoovers. They aren't called Dyson. I don't know about you but I take comfort in the fact that I, at least, try not to let the words that come out of my mouth be a total load of pish.
"the power of an upright" 24v (battery) vs 120v (outlet). Physics would disagree. Google it. Average upright. 500 to 3000 watts. This Vac? 150... you know...physics.
Uprights have around 1000 to 1500 watts at most. Not 3,000. 3,000 watts is central vaccum territory. Also suction is far more important than power, in which floor head design matters a lot more than motor power.
I have a V8 and I'm needing my 3rd battery in it. They only last about 18 months, in my experience, then the performance rapidly degrades. They have to be treated as regular consumables and mine is $143 CDN from Dyson. I've tried 2 Chinese knock-off batteries from Amazon and they are garbage. One lasted 2 months before dying, so they sent me a 2nd one, which lasted maybe 6 months. The OEM batteries shouldn't cost more than $50 when you're paying this much for a plastic vacuum.
I like that you speak so clearly! I easily understood as you delivered your critique on the vacuum.
Thank you 🙏
We have had our V12 for a couple days. It is by far the best Dyson we've had. It is our 3rd one and we love it.
other two stopped working or it was just a regular upgrade?
Which models you had?
Got my v12 two days ago considering with gen 5 and v15. I’m so happy with it . Not too heavy . All the model are good but the trigger and the weights considering I ended up getting the v12 . Thanks for review
Good choice! And thanks for the comment!
So Rory to hear about the performance on Ruggables! I was all set to commit to the V12, but I have 3 Ruggables, so glad you pointed this out; guess I’ll go with a more classic corded Miele…
Best video I found for Dyson v12. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
thanks I just bought V12 received on 8/24 thanks for speaking so clearly but I dont know where to register it please help
You can contact Dyson to register it.
I have the Dyson V15 and it is fantastic. I was also a sceptic of the laser tech, but I'll be damn is works great!
So glad to hear!
Great piece of machinery. I have just purchased this model, its next level in cleaning especially with the new laser technology Won't disappoint 😊
Couldn't agree more!
Thanks for mentioning how it handles your "2-dog home." Good to know how fast it would fill up in our 2 dog, 2 cat home.
Happy to help!

Glad the video was helpful!
I just bought one, and oh my god do I love it!
YAY!

Thank you for the video! Would the laser detector head work on carpet surfaces? How does that compare with the motorbar clean head?
can I put it in the charger even if they have more than 20% left, to keep the battery power further on (if you know what I mean?)

The gen5 is way too heavy. Hopefully you went with the v12 detect slim

I agree about tthe locking trigger.

It was a lot of runtime, IMO. And yes, you can get another battery for it too!
Does it needs to be on the charger whole time or only when the battery low?
Only when the battery is low.
Great review as always.. And Erin flexing those red toe nails too ! 😁
Thank you!! 😁
Lasers make everything better. Ex, Sharks with frickin lasers
Totes.
Thank you for this amazing review
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Damn near the perfect vacuum to this day if you get the HEPA version.
This version doesn't have a hepa filter?
Great review!
Glad you think so, thanks!
you left off how to release dust bin hand held unit from main unit.
Great video, thanks for your review!
Thanks for watching!
Great review! I'd love to see one on the Dyson v15, too.
Noted!
I got a V12 and it is a decent cleaner. My only concerns are the dust gun like empty mechanism and the mostly useless max mode that runs only for 8 minutes and adds a major stress to the batteries.
Good feedback thanks.
Use the middle mode to get the intelligent suction enabled.
Warning! No replacement battery for V12 seems to be available. I guess once the battery goes out you will have to replace the vacuum. This battery has been out of stock for at least a year. Did Dyson do this intentionally? We just purchased the vacuum but am disgusted because we cannot purchase a spare battery as Dyson recommends.
Thanks, Erin.
You bet!
Great review
Thank you!
Ur Canadian arnt you?
I am!
This is the best vacuum.. It is expensive and I have all ceramic tiles
No mention of the very low suction on Eco mod. Horrible battery life and outrageous cost!
Awful!
Can we really trust a review from someone who throws away the pizza crusts!!! 🤨😉😂
🤣🤣🤣
