Dyson V15 Detect | Unboxing, First Look, & Performance Tests

Hello everyone! I very much hope you enjoy my in-depth first look at the new Dyson V15 Detect! Although this machine is certainly in the premium price category of the cordless vacuum market, it does indeed come with several high-end features that are quite fun to use. Look out for a full review of this machine once I'm able to have more time using it. As always, be sure to comment any questions, critiques, suggestions, or video ideas below!

For anybody out there with dark hardwood floors this laser fluffy is a game changer. I use it on my hardwood floors and love it for that purpose. This v15 is awesome on stairs too. I bring out the animal ball 2 for all of my carpets.

The anti tangle brush head is a game changer for me. I have been waiting for Dyson to come out with that!

[vacuumtests]

Wow! I am so glad that I found yet another channel doing airflow box tests. Your tests are very accurate. Greetings from Finland :)

They missed a massive trick here. Why doesn’t the wall mount support the charging of 2 batteries simultaneously? Seriously, that would have been a gigantic check mark

Particle counter feature suggests some additional tests. Start with empty flask and vacuum a defined area, record the particle counts, empty the flask back onto the area and repeat comparing the counts. Vacuum the same area several times recording the count after each pass. Compare the count vacuuming the same area on each power setting and with each head. These tests should reveal if this feature actually works or is just a gimmick!

I personally think that dyson could improve the v15's overall performance by doing 3 things. Making the cyclones smaller to filter our more dirt, add a second tier of cyclones like on their current cylinder corded vacs, and reducing the metal shroud size like on the outsize and their cinetic upright. That will do 3 things, reduce the amount of dirt that passes through, increase the dirt bin capacity, and will increase the velocity speed of the dirt and air mixture within - separating more dirt from the air flow

For the brush roll measurements you need to bear in mind the circumference of the roll, a roll twice the diameter will have twice the surface speed at the same RPM so the new fluffy roll will probably have a significantly slower speed at the point of floor contact. Might be worth crunching those numbers?

Have they fixed their carpet destruction problem yet? I bought a V11 a few months ago and had to return it because the torque drive head ripped up my carpets (I have a mix of oriental rugs, area rugs, and wall-to-wall carpets). I'm surprised that when I see Dyson reviews no one talks about it…
I ended up buying a Miele and it's also cordless but doesn't eat up the carpets to the extent that Dyson does

Great review of this new dyson, am thinking of getting one, Nice carpet btw 👌👍

Like to have seen you do a full vacuum and then demonstrate the emptying process and how to not breathe in any dust during that operation. No good having the best filter system, if when tipping it in the bin, you get a lot of dust, which mainly seems to be from skin flakes. I think the Dyson cleaners have been very useful. Bought my Mrs. one and she said send it back, so I said they will let you use of for two weeks and no questions asked. After the first use, I said do you want it sent back. No was the answer.

My friend has a V15 and I have a V11 sitting around. The attachments are interchangeable. The particle counter is a straight up gimmick, you won't look at it again after 5 minutes. The anti-tangle tool is really that good, I would purchase that separately if available. The fluffy head is nice, but there is no ball mechanism on there, so it will not fit under low beds/couches. Hope this helps! Also, check for marks and scuffs on your "new" items. Due to stock shortages, there are rumors that some people are receiving refurb units sold as "new". The clear plastic on all my V15 pieces had gouges and scratches.

When testing the spins of the Fluffy v11 (1210 RPM) and v15 (1190 RPM) from minute 27:44, you have to take into account that the circumference of the v11 Fluffy is bigger than the v15 (right?), So it travels more distance with each lap . If we compared 2 cylinders with circumferences of 20 cm and 10 cm at 1000 RPM, the first travels at (1000 * 20) 12Km / h and the second (1000 * 10) 6Km / h.
If you look at the difference in RPM (~ 20) + the difference in circumference, you can probably see the difference in speed by eye.
Personally I think the lower speed on hard floors is more efficient. Too high RPM in the Fluffy brush could throw larger pieces of dirt away before being caught by the suction.

Hi
I have the v11 and Im happy the all the attachments are backward compatable.
Great vid
Thanks

14:50 that is genius! Anti Tangle Tool Wow!

[bru_annette]

I’m so glad I wait this long to order a Dyson that is more powerful than the Outsize 😎 can’t wait to open mine next week, awesome review 🤔👏

[aboy]

Try this - can you perform a particle emission calculation? Whereby you place said device over the exhaust and determine the quantity of particles emitted from the “HEPA” filter? From what I’ve understood, the Dyson vacuums are sealed fairly well. However, the v7, v8’s exhaust had a large emission of particles (>3 um/microns)

[SeriesDmusic]

Just picked up the v11 torque last week. Definitely thinking of returning and getting this

[MarkusA]

Cool Video and review, thanks a lot! Waiting for V15 to arrive in european Market, especially in austria :-)

[HCG]

I wish you showed the measurements compared to the older models

[zodiacfml]

19:56 a small channel has this test?! 👏👏
