Dyson V11 Torque Drive 268731-01, Cord-Free Vacuum, Blue

Product Information

The third and final Mini Motorised tool is like a mini version of the Torque Drive. This is the one to reach for when doing stairs, dog beds and sofas, and it’s perhaps the only time you’ll ever need to use Boost mode. Although it’s not as efficient as Dyson’s similarly sized Tangle-Free Turbine Tool – as supplied with the corded Big Ball Animal 2 – the Mini Motorised tool still made a fair fist of removing most hair from the dog bed. Dyson v11 Absolute review: Filtering

For both hard floors and carpets there’s the absolutely excellent Torque Drive Motorhead which is comprised of a single high-RPM revolving brush with loads of space around it to prevent clogging. On the front there’s a three-way switch that raises or lowers two little gates for different suction levels. When open, larger items like cereals are also more easily collected. This is the brush head to use for both carpets and floors and definitely the one to choose if you have pets around. In Auto mode it collected more dog and cat hair than we thought possible and even Eco mode performed exceptionally well when used on a hard floor. The Dyson Omni-Glide and Micro are good for homes with hard floors only but since they have a small battery, they are rather good for small cleaning areas. To say the Dyson V11 Torque Drive merely "cuts it" would be an understatement — it provided the easiest, most efficient cleaning experience I've had in a long time, maybe ever. I've used the vacuum for one year and it's made a big difference in the tidiness of my apartment.Dyson V6 Animal: the V6 Animal is a Motorhead with more attachments. Both have the same direct-drive bristle brush, but the Animal has two extra tools – a mini-motorized head and a soft dusting brush. The Dyson V11 Outsize has swappable batteries and is ideal for big houses. Also comes with a wider cleaning head and is the most powerful in the industry. The Animal normally has about the same accessory kit as the Absolute edition except for the soft roller cleaner head. There is also an Animal+ modification that has the accessories of the Animal modifications with an additional flexi crevice tool. Those heads do the job on carpets and hard floors as well but on hard floors, they struggle with large debris and tend to scatter them around.

If you mostly have a mixed surface, you probably would not switch between the two heads but for hard floors only, it is highly recommended to buy a modification with a soft roller or get one optionally. Ideal for big homes with high-pile carpets. Equipped with a smart display that shows additional cleaning information. The Dyson V10 would be suitable as it lasts up to 60 minutes. Should be enough for such area. It is also good for carpets. If you want smart features such as a display and carpet boost, consider getting the V11.My house is two levels with about 1,100 sqft each. The second floor is all carpets. Do I need to buy the most expensive Dyson?
