![]() Revised with additional testing information on March 21, 2018. ![]() * Bolded times are for the modes we think most people will use most of the time with their cordless vacs. If you’re curious, here’s how Dyson’s cordless vacs actually compare in terms of their runtime/suction modes, based on our testing: It does not apply to the vacuum the way we think most people would use it, with a motorized brush roll attached for standard floor cleaning, on the setting that maximizes battery life. So that 60 minutes really only applies to when the vacuum is being used with handheld attachments like a crevice tool or combination brush. On its most powerful suction mode, the V10 is the strongest cordless vacuum we’ve ever tested, but lasts a paltry seven minutes. It’s quite powerful on its medium suction setting, but then the battery life is only 27 minutes (the V8 doesn’t have a comparable option). (It is worth pointing out, though, that in one test we did since posting this article, it lasted for 50 minutes). With Dyson’s new Torque drive cleaner head attached (the cleaner head that comes with the V10 Animal and Absolute), Dyson claims in the fine print that the V10 lasts only 35 minutes on its lowest suction setting, 10 minutes more than the cheaper-and stronger!-V8. And the battery life isn’t clearly better, either.įor starters, the Cyclone V10 Absolute technically does last for 60 minutes, but only on its lowest suction setting, without any motorized attachments connected. On the setting most people will use most of the time, the V10 has less cleaning power than the older, now-cheaper vacuum it is replacing-the Dyson V8. We got our hands on a V10 Absolute, did some testing, and found that the claims about the battery life and cleaning power are only true in a best-case scenario. Dyson markets the Cyclone V10 as “the only vacuum you’ll need,” based on claims of an impressive 60-minute battery life and improved suction capabilities. ![]() On March 6, Dyson released its newest cordless vacuum, the flagship Cyclone V10.
