Dyson does not stick with chronological order when naming its stick vacuum fashions. Generally it skips numbers, and generally it will introduce a decrease quantity as a later mannequin than a better quantity. For instance, Dyson launched the V15 instantly after the V11, after which the V12 after the V15. Within the broadest sense, the numbers appear to loosely develop bigger with every passing launch—the V11 is newer than the V10, and the V10 is newer than the V8. However Dyson’s naming system is cryptic sufficient that even we will not predict what the following mannequin shall be.
Dyson additionally has quite a lot of sub-models, as a result of its naming scheme is not complicated sufficient. Every one has a distinct variety of included device attachments and equipment. Each mannequin (V7, V8, V10, V11, V15, and so on.) appears to introduce new sub-models, so the listing simply retains rising, after which there are discontinued sub-models that present up as outdated inventory on web sites, usually on sale.
Detect is not precisely a sub-model, however slightly a part of the title of the V15 Detect and V12 Detect Slim. It refers back to the laser detection system that measures particle dimension and rely to customise suction energy.
Absolute is often the king-of-the-hill model with essentially the most attachments. We won’t listing all of them, as a result of they differ based mostly on dad or mum mannequin, however anticipate a wide range of brush nozzles, crevice attachments, and motorized curler heads to wash powerful grit off exhausting flooring and out of deep-pile carpets.
Allergy used to imply that it got here with an upgraded filter that traps 99.99 % of micro organism and mud so it expels cleaner air than common fashions, however after the V7 all Dyson stick vacs began together with the upgraded filters. It is largely a legacy designation now, and it hasn’t been used on newer fashions.
Motorhead sounds fancy, however it’s the low-end sub-model that comes with a motorized head, a few primary brush and crevice instruments, and that is about it. It is largely a holdover from the V7 days. Dyson has discovered different names for primary sub-models.
Origin, Fluffy, and Animal include comparatively few attachments. The Fluffy and Animal does not include any distinctive attachments explicit to usefulness in cleansing up after pets; it is simply turn out to be shorthand for “base mannequin with fewer attachments.” The identical is true for the Origin, though its title makes extra sense.
Dyson is not above combining sub-model names too. Mainly, the extra names Dyson slaps onto a mannequin, the extra attachments it comes with. For instance, the V8 Animal Professional comes with extra stuff than the Animal, however the Animal Professional+ comes with much more than that.
