This is my third Dyson vacuum purchase in about a ten-year span. I went from V8 to V10 Animal, and now the V12 slim. All have been great machines and are still used in our several locations. My only complaint is that the OEM replacement batteries are costly. The knockoff batteries that can be acquired on Amazon are less expensive but do not perform as well as OEM parts and do not last as long. I do like my new V12 slim unit because it is lighter, and the battery stores enough power to get through your household cleaning chores before it runs out of juice (30-35 min.) on average. It has a digital readout of the particulate size of the debris that you are sucking up with your vacuum. I also like the one-touch on-off button which is much more user-friendly than the ... MoreThis is my third Dyson vacuum purchase in about a ten-year span.

I also like the one-touch on-off button which is much more user-friendly than the trigger style of previous units. It comes with a variety of accessory attachments that increase the utility of the vac. It has a bare floor motor-driven brush attachment that incorporates a green laser light that illuminates the dust particles that are on the floor so that you can see the dust to pick up with the cleaner head. The only neg. review I have for the V12 Slim is that it has a smaller dustbin and must be emptied more frequently and at the end of each use, for sure. I have always been in the habit of emptying the dustbin at the end of each use with my previous machines, so this was not a problem for me. If you care for your equipment, it will care for you. I would recommend this unit. It is pricey ($800+), but I was able to purchase it as an HSN deal for about half that cost. It was a great buy.

I spent a long time online researching various vacuum cleaners before choosing this Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute from John Lewis. It was on offer so that helped make up my mind that I would be getting a quality product for a good price. It has exceeded my expectations. We purchased an old house which needs doing up but it's going to be a couple of years or so before we can change the carpets . My other vacuum cleaners couldn't cope with the carpets which prompted my need for a new cleaner. This Dyson makes quick work of the vacuuming. The carpets are coming up like new - it's amazing. The choice of 3 different types of suction are very useful. I now find I can go round the whole house (5 beds) on Eco on one charge but can switch up easily to more powerful suction ... MoreI spent a long time online researching various vacuum cleaners before choosing this Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute from John Lewis.

The bin is small and needs emptying regularly but it is quick and easy to do so I don't find that a problem. The hair removal head is a life saver. Myself and my 3 long haired daughters shed a lot of hair and it used to be a complete pain removing all that hair from a brush bar but this Dyson solves that problem - it's like magic! It's easy to change the floor head for hard flooring and the laser light is genuinely really useful. My only slight criticism is that I find the way I hold the handle can cause a bit of discomfort on my thumb knuckle and I just need to remember to hold the handle slightly lower down so that the weight of the motor and bin is not pressing on my hand. When I hold it correctly there is no discomfort at all. I would thoroughly recommend this vacuum cleaner.

After owning a variety of vacuums over the years, the V12 Detect smokes them all. It's light, powerful, quiet and maneuverable. I wasn't expecting much from the laser "detect" feature, assuming it was mostly a marketing gimmick. However, it's an amazing feature for hard floors. Following a preliminary round with the robot vac, I was surprised how much dust and dog hair was illuminated by the laser. It reminded me of the old PacMan game. While not exactly fun, the laser certainly makes vacuuming more interesting. I have concrete floors, so I don't have an observation for the carpet attachment. However, the other attachments work well for their purposes. Overall run time for the floor is about 30 minutes on the auto cycle; enough to do all the rooms in my house. Some ... MoreAfter owning a variety of vacuums over the years, the V12 Detect smokes them all. It's light, powerful, quiet and maneuverable.

Some reviews talk about the small dust bin, but dumping is so easy, it is a non-issue. I usually need one dump at the end of the 30 mins. I also like the quietness of the vac. The sound is mostly rushing air, and the level is far quieter than any other vac I have owned. I wish the wall hanger/charger was more sturdy, perhaps made as a single piece with a separate charger provided for charging outside the hanger. However, it works fine if care is taken in placing and removing the vac. Overall, the V12 is one of those purchases I wish I had made long ago. It is a game-changer!
We've only ever had Dyson vaccum cleaners since the DC01. Always been pleased, they are the market leaders in this field in my humble opinion. Our current Dyson is fantastic, efficient, but getting heavy transposing up and down the stairs. I was looking for a Dyson cleaner to keep downstairs (as we had in the past had two Dyson vacuums for this purpose). After much research and reading reviews I visited my local John Lewis in Solihull. A very helpful member of staff showed me around the machine and I was able to use the demonstration model. I ordered this model and have been absolutely delighted since. It sits downstairs and I can charge it whenever needed. It's so lightweight that I'm actually taking it upstairs now... which I hadn't planned on doing. I won't be ... MoreWe've only ever had Dyson vaccum cleaners since the DC01. Always been pleased, they are the market leaders in this field in my humble opinion.

It sits downstairs and I can charge it whenever needed. It's so lightweight that I'm actually taking it upstairs now... which I hadn't planned on doing. I won't be getting rid of my trusty older Dyson though. I have a sewing area downstairs which quickly gets thread ends and small fabric pieces under the table and it's an easy clean up with this Dyson. I can even use it when the family have gone to bed as they can't hear it upstairs, so I can tidy my sewing area ready for the next sewing session. For me it was a great buy. At the time it was reduced in price plus an extra 20% off for members. Obviously the bin bring a small capacity holds a small amount and needs emptying as per its usage. I find I'm having to watch the charge and plug in as needed. It's a little delight for cleaning the footwell of my car and the rest of the cars interior. I've listed it in my wish list as I hope to win one for one of the children đ¤
I want to say that I'm a loyal Dyson customer. Six products over the years that I've enjoyed, but I now have a negative experience which is changing my mind about the brand.Purchased a new V12 Absolute Detect during Black Friday. The box looked new and unopened, but the vacuum looks refurbished. Scratches all over. Didn't mind much since it wasn't performance related. However, the battery is super loose... to the point that it just falls while vacuuming. I've had to use zip ties to hold it in place.The V12 product I have is out of stock so they agreed to provide me a V15 Detect Absolute. While I appreciate the gesture, they are not sending me the return label. I've called twice (both times waiting on hold for 30-60 minutes) - first time "the system was down", ... MoreI want to say that I'm a loyal Dyson customer.

I've called twice (both times waiting on hold for 30-60 minutes) - first time "the system was down", and second time "you will receive the label in your email in 15 minutes"... which never came. I can't receive a replacement until they receive my current vacuum, and I can't do that until I receive a return label. They also said the return will take 3-5 business days to arrive at the warehouse, then it may take another 14 business days to process the exchange. So I'm basically without a vacuum for a month while I have a 2 year old and 6 month infant. They refuse to provide overnight shipping or send the replacement V15 prior to receiving my vacuum. I've even offered for them to charge my credit card if they don't receive my V12. I get they have systems and policy in place, but asking customers to wait 3+ weeks for issues and defects that are the fault of Dyson is mindblowing. The customer service is horrible.
A month ago, I watched my 18 month old grandson holding onto the V12 and walking along with his mom as they vacuumed their home. I asked my son if they were happy with it and he said it didnât a great job on their wood floors, tile, and even area rugs. Now, I have a very furry dog that sheds like crazy, was a bit worried about whether that V12 would do a good job on my own floors but I was willing to chance it because I was tired of lugging around the clumsy corded vacuum I had. I will say, with no reservation, that the V12 is the most wonderful vacuum Iâve ever had, mainly because itâs light enough for me to walk with while it does an excellent job picking up fur, dust, and regular household dirt! Would I like to have a Dyson with more suction power? Well, yes ... MoreA month ago, I watched my 18 month old grandson holding onto the V12 and walking along with his mom as they vacuumed their home.

Would I like to have a Dyson with more suction power? Well, yes butâŚ. that would make for one of the heavier vacuums that would be harder for me to use and to be honest, I donât see how much better it could be because Iâm having such excellent results with the V12. Some people say the small chamber fills quickly and must be emptied often while vacuuming, whereas the larger and heavier models have larger chambers. Honestly, itâs no big deal to empty the nice light, easy, well-performing V12. Everyone in my family laughs when I say,â Time for some fun, Iâm going to vacuum now!â Funny thing is, my husband and I actually take turns sometimes because vacuuming is such an easy activity to accomplish, as opposed to some less pleasant housecleaning chores. No question: for regular vacuuming that you can do painlessly every day, buy this vacuum, the V12.
The jury is still out with regard this vacuum cleaner. Holding it is a bit like holding a really heavy water gun. I have small, very boney hands, and the weight of the cleaner on my thumb joint is quite painful. I have to wrap a cloth as padding around my hand in order to stop the machine resting on the joint.Small hands are however very useful, when it comes to getting the fluff out of the very small collection bin, which needs emptying really quite often.As a result, I wouldn't want to use the machine for any great length of time. I certainly would not want to use it to vacuum a large room, and will continue to use my traditional upright for that.It is however, very useful for doing the stairs, mattresses and small poky places, due to all the additional gadgets ... MoreThe jury is still out with regard this vacuum cleaner.

Its suction power is quite impressive, it does appear to be picking up well all that dust and hair etc that appears from nowhere.I must admit, I haven't paid much attention to it's digital screen, as this could become an obsession.I haven't used the wall bracket either, as this needs to be installed near a wall plug, and I don't want a dedicated fixed home for the cleaner. It is quite easy to charge up without it being fixed to the wall.So to conclude, it is a good vacuum if you have big strong hands, you will be fine with this machine. You just won't be able to get the fluff out of the bin.
I have had several Dyson vacuums and loved them all. They always had a cool well thought of design and performed very well. That is why when my wife wanted to get a cordless one, this is the company I first thought of. After having recovered from the sticker shock, I ended up settling for the V12. As expected, the design is cool and some of its features are cool as well, but some of the design challenges my corded ones solved seem to have been forgotten here.The light at the end of it, something I thought would just be a gimmick, is something that is surprisingly useful. It seems like it shines on dirt you had no idea was there. The suction power is just ok in its medium setting and not really usable in low. This is where the issues start: changing it to high ... MoreI have had several Dyson vacuums and loved them all. They always had a cool well thought of design and performed very well.

It seems like it shines on dirt you had no idea was there. The suction power is just ok in its medium setting and not really usable in low. This is where the issues start: changing it to high makes the battery last 1/10 of the medium setting!!! Needless to say that is not something that I can use, as it would last for half a room. This is not something I expected from an item that costs this much. I could not find a larger battery from Dyson being sold either. There are third party bigger batteries and some adaptors that work with cordless tool batteries which I might be forced to explore.The other issue is with the disposal of the collected dust. With my past Dyson vacuums it used to be pull a lever and it all falls gracefully to the trash. This one requires either pumping the lever 5-6 times or trying to grab clumps of dirt with your hands. This falls under trying to change something that worked category.Overall it is an ok vacuum, but as previously mentioned, not what I expected from Dyson. I hope that they address battery life and maybe do it as part of a recall, sending customers ones which have a more usable life.
Our old Dyson was showing signs of age after 10 years of use and I spent a lot of time considering if I wanted to spend the extra money again on a Dyson or go for a cheaper brand. Eventually went for the Dyson and bought this on sale.The hard flor attachment with the laser beam is a game changer. I had no idea there was so much dust sitting on my floors. It illuminates every single spec of dust, so much that it's a little unsettling. The soft brush does an effective job picking it up, and it has a super low profile (along with the angle changing attachment) so it can reach under some furniture that all other vacuums (including my old Dyson) couldn't fit. The carpet attachment also does a fantastic job.I like the 'auto' feature that kicks in to a higher power ... MoreOur old Dyson was showing signs of age after 10 years of use and I spent a lot of time considering if I wanted to spend the extra money again on a Dyson or go for a cheaper brand.

The LED screen however is pretty much useless - just has a graph that tells me I'm always picking up a lot of small particles. Perhaps this is more helpful for a home where people wear shoes or have kids or pets, but in ours we only ever have dust, a bit of hair, and some crumbs on the floor.V12 is great for a 2 bedroom flat. I can fill up the dust bin in one clean but never have to empty during the clean. I like the V12 is lighter than other more expensive models.
