Great video, thanks. Looks like I'm sticking with the V6 until they release a Micro Absolute with a carpet head or move other machines over to the new tool fitting and I can buy one separately. I'm not short of vintage machines but it's really handy to have a modern cordless around for quick cleanups. Can't bring myself to buy a Shark...
@ 8:48 I just noticed the exit hole for very large particles like cheerios seems to be a fair bit bigger then the exit hole on their bigger cordless vacs like the V15, kinda odd if you ask me.
Not a bad looking machine. It’s ok for a small apartment or as a handheld. I think I personally would buy a V11 or a V15. Hopefully soon I will be able to buy one. In your opinion, would a V15 be worth buying over the V11 or should I just save the money and buy a V11?
I think the omni is better in a few ways. But mainly because of the two sided fluffy head, you can wave it back and fourth without having to overlap strokes, so you can cover a wider area faster despite the width. But still, lack of ability to clean carpets is a downfall. And the omni is nearly twice the price as that shark here in the USA....so I'm inclined to agree with you there.
wow ok Roger you sold me on Dyson i was thinking this machine is a toy but on the floor it vacuum the dirt very well could be hand y for the caravan neat .Does Dyson still makea mains power corded vac ??
By todays currency exchange this is $425 American dollars. That's way too expensive for that. You can buy a larger Dyson v8 stick vacuum cheaper than that in the US.
Very cute!!! No carpet head is a huge let down for sure... Just a question will you do a review on the electrolux pure D9 and C9 models I'm planning on dumping the dirty emptying dyson and going back to a bagged vac but can't afford a miele or sebo and the electrolux D9 looks good for a cheaper option. Regards, Aussie fan ✌
I suspect it is discontinued if Dyson do not have it on their website, though stocks are probably available from other retailers. A V8 head will not fit the Micro.
Really strange of Dyson, they could have released the V12 there. It would also hurt themselves for a weaker version, competing with their older products and other brands. edit: i guess the V12 is too expensive versus this. A better comparison then is the dyson digital slim
back here. i still cant my head why Dyson bothered, maybe Japan? I also discovered how terrible a soft/fluffy head is. In one of the shots, it flings some hard debris out of the way
If I was looking for a dedicated hard floor vacuum, I'd say the omni-glide would be superior 👌 It's such a shame Dyson didn't put the Torque drive head on the Micro 1.5KG, cos that'd have made it the perfect replacement for the still good but aging V6 👍 I believe there is a V12 Detect coming that also has a on/off switch instead of a trigger and it also has the screen and the laser fluffy head that it's larger brother, the V15 detect has.
The one thing I HATE about every Dyson I've owned and own is how cheap the materials are. Like, I own an $800 Dyson that squeaks and cracks by just holding it. Also, why can't they just make it easier to clean out the metal mesh or the cyclones? I've had my mesh clog up on several occasions and it took prying and bending like crazy just to get the mesh off in order to clean it. Why can't we just twist it off like how their filters work? I love my Dysons, but I'm honestly sick of how crappy they are. I've broken nearly every Dyson I've owned, and I baby them. They are ridiculously expensive, but built to die in a year.
The fact that lightweight for us that have problems with the hands/ arms is an option, because who is going to be able to hold a 6 pounds machine in an awkward position for 20 minutes?
I still say the V11 is the best all round proposition.The outsize is way too big and cumbersome as a handheld.The V15 is basically a gimmicky V11.The V11 is still the vac of the moment-and even better value now the V15 is here so will be discounted by £100 I expect.
Just through curiosity has anyone used this on a small carpeted area. Will it be okay? Yes I know it’s for hard floors but would it still suck well on carpet? I’ve ordered one and didn’t look at the description first and a small amount of carpet. The rest is hard floors ? I cave change my order . Thanks in advance
I like a small machine, but 2 things I don’t like: I need a proper instruction booklet as I don’t have a smart phone, and I need a carpet cleaning head.
Bagless... sorry, I just don't get it. Had a Dyson DC41,,, hated it. Bulky, heavy, and bagless is absolutely filthy technology. Sebo Essential G4 all the way. Bagless reminds me of the days of the red Kirby with a dump out bag. We're not supposed to have to handle the dirt after it enters the vac. I'd rather replace a bag every few months (yes I have many pets) then wipe out a bagless dirt drum.
You have rotting a decomposing dirt and matter in that bag over weeks or months. There is a reason they start smelling and another reason they fail most filtration tests by British and American allergy foundations. If you’re that fussy about getting a damp cloth and wiping out a plastic bin then you should never handle any diet in garden, or wash up crockery or clean down your kitchen worktops.
@@Olliebobalong I suppose that's your opinion just like the above is mine. I haven't found any info showing genuine Sebo bags failed the British Allergy Foundation tests. As a matter of fact they're Sebo S Class filtration is better than HEPA standards in the US. Not to mention, no Dyson product is approved by the Carpet and Rug Institute (which is the governing body for all carpet and vacuum standards in the US, in fact, no bagless vac is approved by the CRI).
@@Olliebobalong Number one - if you do not vacuum that much to fill a bag in 1 week's trash, then get a smaller bagged canister with a smaller bag. Number two - they have charcoal lined bags or charcoal pellets you put in the bag to absorb odors. Number three - allergy ratings mean nothing because you do not live in the USS Space Station. You are supposed to be exposed to dust and germs to keep your immune system strong - why do you think people that spend all their time indoors and sanitizing everything are always so damn sick all the time? Imagine how much comes into your house when you open your windows - IF you even do that. Number four - bagless vacuums are a crock because what do you think happens when you empty the bin and have to rinse the filters out? You get all that dust and dirt in the air and on your hands and everywhere else, and then it sits in the open garbage bin. A lot of ignorant millenials are lazy as hell and like to throw out all these weak excuses why "bagless vacuums are so great" because they do not know how to buy spare bags for vacuums and keep their equipment maintained. They also subscribe to the false hype that everything has to be new, and "bags are old fashioned grandpa stuff". Doesn't work like that chief. I can tell you for a definite fact that a properly maintained bagged vacuum fully restored does not put out any dust or debris. Even if it did, my basement is full of dust and dirt and I have spiders that run around any time I move something. I have never been sick or had the flu in over 8 years.
yes but is it cordless? My mom still have her Kirby and my experience while using it is not the best because Its pulley broke 2 times while using it (it was a older model and I am not saying that Kirbys are bad, by my experience with them so far)
This vacuum is perfect for elderly or people with dexterity problems it has an on off switch no trigger and is small light and compact. I have a Kirby and even I have difficulties at the age of 43 having to shove the thing around and drag it up and down stairs because it is heavy and it is built to last they are amazing machines the pickup is outstanding but unfortunately they just impractical to have to manoeuvre in straight lines backwards and forwards even with tech drive and then having to plan your cleaning for above floor and floor cleaning due to having to convert the unit. I ended up buying a lindhaus rx and selling the Kirby because it was just getting too much like hard work and a chore to clean top to bottom.
@@ibaisaic yes 🙌🏼 I will add it to my itinerary As for my plan of attack I think I’m gonna bring up the Omni glide first And then punch him in the spleen with my other demands
@@CordlessUprightHetty he said that it is smaller than V11 and V15. And i have V12 in SG that have a on/off switch on top of the Dyson, i dont know if the tools with my new V11 will fit the V12. In SG, we dont have V15
No it’s not, it’s just a characteristic of the grey plastic Dyson use. There are plenty of examples of Dyson cleaners cracking, but it hasn’t happened to this one yet.
how dare you insult the trigger, it is one of the best features of the earlier dysons, like my v8 for example, can save power by only being on when you want it
What about people with arthritis in their hands. I have no issues, but even I find my finger hurts after a while and using the optional hose is very inconvenient when you have to keep your finger on the trigger all the time.
4 videos in one week. It’s like Ibaisaic of old, love it. Thanks for your hard work in bringing us these videos. It’s been a real treat!
I’ve been on the toilet due to stomach problem if you know what I mean. Your videos kept me entertained. Many thanks.

Great video, thanks. Looks like I'm sticking with the V6 until they release a Micro Absolute with a carpet head or move other machines over to the new tool fitting and I can buy one separately.

I wish they included carpet cleaning nozzle to this. This has a lot potential so it's a shame that it is hard floor only.
It would pick up more dirt from carpets so people would moan that it's got a small capacity and they need to empty it very often. .
@@huskyvacs yeah carpet is mostly in bedrooms only now.
You could buy a V8 motor head or V10 to fit on it
@@Bloxy.Builds WOW! that's awesome!
Why would they continue to make new models without removable batteries? Especially with a Max 20min run time (without an attachment)
Please can you review of the dyson omni glide
Thank goodness for the new button! Cheers for the fab review Rog.
isn't the omni glide the "smallest"? btw finally a handheld stick vac at the right size and weight! 👍
Not a bad looking machine. It’s ok for a small apartment or as a handheld. I think I personally would buy a V11 or a V15. Hopefully soon I will be able to buy one. In your opinion, would a V15 be worth buying over the V11 or should I just save the money and buy a V11?
Honestly it’s up to u but I would get neither, personally I think the v10 absolute is great value for what you get but buy what u want I suppose.
I bought the shark wandvac recently. Similar to this but it costs 179.99

In the UK you can’t get Omniglide yet
As a hard floor cleaner I can see the point but why not go with the Omni glide?
James Dyson was on this morning yesterday
you should still get the Dyson omni glide vacuum cleaner

Omni Glide is not available in the UK currently.

Roger what robot cleaners do you use
How do you wash the filters? Run under water, or washing machine...
Amazing video as usual 😀
Always good video and demonstration
Many thanks!
I am surprised you've not put a cup of Cheerios like others do
This is my first time hearing of this but its cool to see it
What would you consider a good bagged upright vac? I have tried using a sebo E3 cylinder but didn't like it as I'm use to uprights
Vorwerk VK200 or Sebo Felix.
@@ibaisaic thanks, really appreciate the reply
They really should consider this button for bigger models or they could have the button and the trigger, maybe one day.
When I looked on the dyson website this vacuum wasn’t here? Is it discontinued? Also would the v8 motor head fit onto this?
I suspect it is discontinued if Dyson do not have it on their website, though stocks are probably available from other retailers. A V8 head will not fit the Micro.
Can it fit a carpet head
There isn’t a carpet head currently available for this model.
Really strange of Dyson, they could have released the V12 there. It would also hurt themselves for a weaker version, competing with their older products and other brands. edit: i guess the V12 is too expensive versus this. A better comparison then is the dyson digital slim
I think they need to ditch the wand and soft roller and sell as a handheld for around £150-£200.It’s ideal as a car vac but useless for the home.
those are not dirt in the bin~ They are mineral lubricant they put on the silicon flaps and seal in the dirt bin.
back here. i still cant my head why Dyson bothered, maybe Japan? I also discovered how terrible a soft/fluffy head is. In one of the shots, it flings some hard debris out of the way
I like Dyson vacuums. I use a v7 for daily cleaning.
Roger what’s your opinion on this cleaner’s brother- the Omni Glide?
It’s not available in the UK yet, but I can guarantee it’s overpriced for a cleaner that doesn’t clean carpets.
If I was looking for a dedicated hard floor vacuum, I'd say the omni-glide would be superior 👌
It's such a shame Dyson didn't put the Torque drive head on the Micro 1.5KG, cos that'd have made it the perfect replacement for the still good but aging V6 👍
I believe there is a V12 Detect coming that also has a on/off switch instead of a trigger and it also has the screen and the laser fluffy head that it's larger brother, the V15 detect has.
If the V12 Detect Slim has a small torque drive head, you can use it on the Micro 1.5Kg.

They are ridiculously expensive, but built to die in a year.
Regardless of the current price, it’s really more ideal than the V7 hand-held vacuum after all it’s wireless. I believe the price will come down
Love your review! They should add "meh" to the like response on Facebook.
