About Dyson vacuum cleaners
British brand Dyson offers a wide variety of upright vacuum cleaners, including Dyson Ball, Dyson Multi Floor and Dyson Origin models. It also offers cylinder vacuum cleaners including the Dyson Motorhead, Dyson Animal and Dyson Allergy.
Dyson vacuum cleaners are different from other vacs as they use patented Root Cyclone technology, which Dyson claims ‘spins the air so fast that centrifugal forces up to 150,000 times the force of gravity fling dust and dirt out of the air and straight into the clear bin.’
We currently have the results of extensive tests on 19 Dyson vacuum cleaners - find out how each model scored by visiting the Which? vacuum cleaner reviews.
Dyson recently launched its Digital Slim cordless vacuum cleaner, which it claims is the most powerful lightweight cordless vac on the market. You can check out our Dyson DC35 Multi Floor First Look Review for our first impressions, along with a video of the vac in action.
