The V15 Detect is Dyson's flagship cordless and the consensus pick from RTINGS, Vacuum Wars and TechGearLab in 2026. Its 240-AW Hyperdymium motor, laser dust-reveal head, piezo particle sensor and 60-minute swappable battery combine to clean nearly any home in one session. You pay flagship pricing, but no other vacuum in this group matches the raw suction, sensor intelligence or hard-floor visibility.

Strengths
  • 240 air watts of fade-free suction, roughly twice Shark Detect Pro's measured 120 AW
  • Green Fluffy Optic laser head reveals invisible hard-floor dust no other vacuum here matches
  • Piezo particle sensor counts and sizes debris and auto-boosts power when load increases
Watch-outs
  • $749 list price is more than double the Dyson V8 and triple some budget picks
  • Trigger-based switch fatigues the hand on long sessions per several reviewers
  • 4-5 hour recharge with the bundled charger feels long if you only have one battery

$249

The HomeVac S11 Infinity is the budget cordless that gets the basics right and adds the one trick almost nobody else does at this price: two batteries in the box.

Strengths
  • Two swappable batteries in the box for 80 minutes total runtime
  • 120 AW peak suction matches the Shark Detect Pro at half the price
  • Roughly half the price of brand-name cordless vacuums
Watch-outs
  • Max mode runs only 8 minutes per battery before draining
  • Dirt pickup trails premium cordless on edge cases per Expert Reviews
  • Brushless DC motor noise is higher than newer competitors at 78 dB

How they stack up

Dyson V15 Detect

More suction (240 AW) than Shark Detect Pro (120 AW) or Eufy HomeVac S11 Infinity (120 AW) and more refined dust-sensing than the Tineco Pure ONE S15 Pro. Replaces Dyson V8 as the do-it-all pick for buyers who want maximum cleaning capability.

eufy HomeVac S11 Infinity

Lowest sticker price on this page and the only one with two batteries in the box. Matches the Shark Cordless Detect Pro on peak suction but with less polished smart-sensing. Less powerful than Dyson V8 on carpet but cheaper.
