My house is an obstacle course style challenge for vacuums. Bumpy slate tiles next to high traffic carpets catch all manner of debris from 2 outdoorsy kids and a shaggy dog. Plus, weu2019re landscaping. So dust is a constant battle. I thought my barrel vac was doing a pretty good jobu2026

Best vacuum cleaner I have ever had! As a dog lover, I have persevered for decades with heavy and cumbersome vacuum cleaners to remove dog hair from carpet and wooden floors. Now I have the Dyson V11 I can whip around the rooms quickly with fantastic results. No aching back and exhausting hard work!

Silly as it may sound, the V11's new LCD screen is a genuine innovation, and the High Torque head's Auto mode is ideal for those of us too lazy to switch attachments. But with minimal battery improvements and extra weight this might not win over anyone yet to be convinced by cordless.

Dyson really does know how to make a brilliant vacuum. I've used Dyson products for years and have never been disappointed. This new V11 is just out of this world. I am completely blown away by how well it works and easy it is to use. I just love cleaning my floors.

I have about 6-7 different vacuum cleaner in my entire life and I have to say, it is one of the best vaccum cleaner in terms of function, portability, and look. u201cCordlessu201d, u201cStrong Suction Poweru201d are the two biggest key selling point for our family.

While we were very impressed by the V11's built in sensors, LCD display and suction power, it can be a little heavy and it still doesn't have the battery for long cleans. Fortunately, it makes vacuuming really easy, so you don't have to clean for as long.
