Dyson’s V15 Detect Plus makes the invisible, undeniable. Its Fluffy Optic cleaner head shines a green LED light ahead of the brush, illuminating dust and debris on hard floors you’d otherwise miss. This isn’t a gimmick. It transforms your cleaning routine by showing you exactly where to focus, ensuring you pick up everything from fine flour to pet dander.

The 240 AW of suction is substantial, easily transitioning from hardwood to deep-pile carpet. The digital motorbar head dynamically adjusts its brush speed to match the floor type, and its anti-tangle comb works reliably on long hair and pet fur. You get about 60 minutes of runtime in its standard Eco mode, which is ample for most apartments or a full floor of a house. Switch to Boost for a concentrated five-minute burst on a high-traffic area, though you’ll hear the motor’s significant increase in pitch.

It converts to a capable handheld with a solid suite of tools, and the included wall dock is a genuine quality-of-life upgrade for storage and charging. The trade-off for this performance is its weight and noise level, which are noticeable compared to some competitors. This is a tool for those who prioritize deep-cleaning proof over absolute convenience.
