LESS DUST, MORE LIGHT

Enter the Dyson V15 Detect Absolute (HEPA), the tech company's latest and most powerful cordless vacuum cleaner yet. Now the V15 isn't exactly new, but it is the first time Dyson is selling it along with the Laser Slim Fluffy cleaner head - which made its debut with last year's V12 - and with HEPA filtration.

The Laser Slim Fluffy is a hard-floor cleaning head that includes a laser that highlights microscopic dust particles that would otherwise remain invisible to the naked eye. The V15 Detect Absolute can also count and identify the size of the dust particles it collects, displaying the information on its LCD screen, so you can see evidence that your vacuuming session is giving your floors a truly deep clean, which is very cool, I might add.

The same display also shows other important information, such as the remaining run-time and the power level selected. Sensors inside the V15 also determine if your floor requires a more powerful vacuum, ramping up the suction power if the machine detects a dirtier-than-usual area or to suit the type of floor it's cleaning.

At the heart of the V15 Detect Absolute is a Dyson Hyperdymium motor, which generates up to 230 air watts suction power, and a multi-stage HEPA filtration system that promises to capture 99.97% of dust particles down to 0.1 microns. It delivers 80 air watts more than the V12, and certainly expels cleaner air too.
