Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute
Model V12 Detect Slim Absolute
Best for: Lightweight premium cleaning
What you need to know
A lighter Dyson aimed at users who want dust illumination and automatic adjustment without the bulk of the V15 or Gen5detect. The smaller bin and cleaner head improve manoeuvrability but require more frequent emptying in larger homes.
Our verdict
The better Dyson choice for flats, stairs and users who find full-size premium cordless vacuums tiring.
Reasons to consider it
- Lighter and easier to manoeuvre
- Hard-floor dust illumination
- Automatic suction adjustment
- Useful compact tool set
Things to know
- Small bin
- Less suitable for large carpeted homes
- Premium price for its size
