      I use Gen5 Detect on carpet and tiles. Great result compared to my old V6! I purchased a spare battery that helps me clean the whole house in 1 go (4 bedrooms + other usual areas).

      • How much is an extra battery?

      • Its like +500 on the v8 though?

    Difference between this and V15 detect absolute?

    • Not 100% sure but if I recall correctly one of the biggest is a button to switch on vs a trigger that can't be locked without a modification

      My understanding is that it's NOT called a V16 because all the Vxx are based on the older Gen4 motor. The fact that it is an all new motor Gen5 is the most significant difference
      I have had a couple of Dysons over many years. The Gen5 in my opinion is the biggest step up of all of them. It's brilliant.

      "The latest model from Dyson the Gen5 Detect. Moving away from the naming system that produced the V6, V7, V8 through to the V15 models of recent years, the new name indicates a new-generation electric motor powering this stick vacuum.
      Smaller, faster and more powerful than previous models, the Gen5 motor spins nine times faster than a Formula 1 engine - up to 135,000rpm.
      More importantly, the new model features particle detection down to as small as 0.1 microns, and the filter traps 99.99 per cent of harmful particles right down to that tiny size."

        "the Gen5 motor spins nine times faster than a Formula 1 engine"

        Lol what absolute marketing tripe

          Ooooh look at you
          Get out of the bed the wrong side ?

      • Thanks, however the marketing still doesn't say how the Gen5 motor differs from the V15 with objective specs and meaningful results.

          "This is Dyson's newest top-of-the-line cordless vacuum. It's not all that different from the V15 Detect, but there are a few new notable features. The Gen5 Detect has a single power button instead of a trigger, a built-in dusting and crevice tool (my favorite since I use that tool often), and a Laser Slim Fluffy cleaner head that shoots out a laser twice as bright as the one on the V15 Detect. It has a run time of up to 70 minutes (and takes up to 4.5 hours to fully charge), so you'll get 10 more minutes than with the V15 Detect.

          Internally, Dyson added a HEPA filter the company claims traps 99.99 percent of particles down to 0.1 microns. The company also says the Gen5 comes equipped with its fastest motor yet—spinning at 135,000 revolutions per minute (RPM) with a suction power of 262 air watts (AW). The V15 Detect, on the other hand, spins at 125,000 RPM, delivering 240 AW of suction power. While we didn't see a major difference in suction while vacuuming, it's worth noting the Gen5 Detect is noticeably louder than the V15"

  • Has anyone here gone up from a V11 to the Gen5 Detect? Thoughts?

    • Was Thinking of the same. I convinced myself not to spend the big bucks and stay put with the v11

      • Our V11 keeps telling us it needs a new filter, even though we've got a few that we cycle through and consistently wash. Finding a LOT of dust come out of the filter far too quickly, so thinking there might be something more sinister going on. We've had it for 5 years so I'm considering YOLOing the upgrade.

        • +1

          We had a similar issue and found it was due to the 1000s of holes in the metal core the filter goes over getting clogged up. Was made worse or even started due to the Mrs wiping it with a wet cloth. Need to pop it open and give it a good clean out and it will work like new.

    In total $800 for vacuum.
