Dyson Gen5detect Absolute
Model Gen5detect Absolute
Best for: Maximum cordless cleaning performance
What you need to know
Dyson's flagship conventional cordless vacuum combines high suction, automatic power adjustment, hard-floor dust illumination and whole-machine filtration. It is designed for buyers who prioritise deep cleaning and detailed feedback over low weight or value.
Our verdict
A premium performance-led option for demanding mixed-floor homes, but its weight and price make it excessive for lighter everyday cleaning.
Reasons to consider it
- Very strong manufacturer-rated suction
- Automatic adjustment and particle feedback
- Dust illumination on hard floors
- Integrated crevice and dusting tool
Things to know
- Heavy in handheld use
- Very expensive
- Large cleaner head is less nimble in tight rooms
