For the price point, that performance is more than impressive. We liked the fact that this vacuum picked up 47 percent of the dirt we laid out for it. And if you're worried about delving into a new brand, the A10 is covered by a two-year warranty. The A10 does its robot vacuum cousins proud. It has a lot to live up to-iLifes are known for being affordable workhorses. The Tineco A10 Hero comes from the same people that brought us the Ecovacs robot vacuum series. However, the Dyson V15’s test results mean we can’t deny it the top spot.
If you’re considering getting a Dyson, know that the V15 is the best of what the company has to offer, but getting the best comes at a steep price. People who have used a Dyson cordless before will find the same smooth glide, sensitive trigger, and light-weight design. The V15 also has a sensor that gives you a readout of the particle sizes that the vacuum is picking up.
During testing, we found that the laser, which can be turned on and off, illuminates dirt under furniture and on floors way better than standard LED headlights. What gives it an edge are its unique laser and sensor. So, while our testing shows that the V11 is slightly more powerful per minute, the V15 cleans better per charge.īased on battery life and cleaning prowess, we are comfortable crowning the V15 as a top contender. However, the V15 has a significantly longer battery life-15 minutes on its max setting compared to the V11’s nine minutes. Those cleaning performance numbers place the V15 in second place, behind the previous generation’s Dyson V11. During our dirt pickup test, the V15 suctioned up about an average of 92% of the detritus we left out on our testing carpet. However, after testing the V15 in our labs, we think that these new bits of technology enhance the cleaning experience.īefore we get ahead of ourselves, we should talk about cleaning performance. Many companies often add gadgets and attachments to their vacuums to compensate for a lack of performance. This time around, we found two huge upgrades: a dust-illuminating laser and a more powerful battery. The Dyson V15 Detect is the latest in a storied lineup of cordless vacuums.
