Little disappointed in the unit unfortunately
Well I have always had Dyson vacuum cleaner and been very happy until buying the Gen5 , the unit is heavy then I expected and disappointed in the attachments how they are situated. I’m finding myself using my original Dyson once I found out I could replace the battery.

The best Dyson I’ve owned!
I absolutely love my new Dyson Gen5Detect. I have a Labrador that comes inside at night and the hair left behind the next day is crazy. When I put the hard floor tool on I could not believe the amount of hair and dust! The Gen5Detect is so amazing at sucking it all up and my floors are so clean. It’s so easy to use & so efficient.

Overall love it
I was superseded how much dirt and fur was left behind using my old vacuum compared to the gen5 the light is insane and I don’t think I’ve used the vacuum so often ever in my life ! The only issue I have is some units are sold with a stand and soeare not, I would hv ourcaed elsewhere had I known. I also find taking the vacuum apart to employ is a little awkward not as easy as I would like, a bit clunky, also I’m 5’6 and I feel A bit hort for the machine as the nozzle isn’t adjustable

Thank you for your review. We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the Gen5’s performance and illumination, and we appreciate your feedback regarding the stand availability, handling, and height adjustability.

Happier with the old Dyson Animal
I updated from the old Animal version, and I am sorry that I did. It is more cumbersome, I have to change brushes for hard floor, and the carpet brush does not handle rugs at all well. It is heavier and not as responsive to handle.

Great features and suction
Both my husband and I love this vacuum, My husband is an engineer and when this arrived he was impressed so impressed at how it works, shows how much dirt and dust it is collecting that he is now doing the vacuuming daily. I love it because I don't have to do the vacuuming--apparently it is too heavy for me to use.

Great suction as promised!
I bought my Dyson GEN five about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks ago and I love it. It works exactly as described. It picks up fine dust which is viable with the green light! There are helpful videos available in case I need instruction for maintaining the vacuum cleaner. I highly recommend this product!

A big step up
A big step up from my 12 year old model! Bigger dust capacity, awesome suction (need to change the fittings on some carpets). A bit heavier. Did a great job vacuuming sand out of my car.

It has better suction than my V 11 and the green light.. Oh my golly gosh!, I am vacuuming longer now as I can see EVERYTHING. I worry I might get RSI- repetitive stress injury.

A game changer
I am 79 years old. I no longer wanted to vacuum stairs while balancing a canister vac and dealing with its power cord. I got tired of replacing it's different filters. I chose this model because of its washable filter that filters to 0.1 microns and has a switch rather than a trigger. Some reviews say that it is difficult to use because of the weight at the top. I don't find it difficult to use or balance. I can vacuum one floor of my house on a charge. Despite having had a very expensive HRPA filter canister vac, I was never able to get the tile and hardwood floors clean. Now there isn't a speck of dirt on them. Vacuuming takes half the time because one sweep removes all the dirt. It's easy to use. Mild exercise.

Dog Hair - Dyson wins this title outright!
Dyson SV 23 Gen5Detect stick vacuum cleaner. I recently acquired the Dyson SV 23 Gen5Detect stick vacuum cleaner, and it has completely transformed my cleaning routine! As a proud owner of a long-haired Border Collie and a black Labrador, I’ve experienced the endless struggle of removing dog hair and dirt from my home. Anyone with similar pets understands just how challenging it is to keep things tidy. After spending thousands on six different major-brand vacuums in the past year, I was frustrated and at my wits’ end. Then I found the Dyson SV 23 Gen5Detect, and what a relief it has been! This vacuum is a powerhouse when it comes to tackling pet hair. The suction is outstanding—you can actually feel the difference as you clean. Plus, it operates quietly enough that my dogs don’t run away in fear, and its lightweight design makes it easy to use all around the house. Now, I can finally maintain a clean home without fuss or embarrassment, and I wholeheartedly recommend this vacuum to any pet owner facing similar challenges. It’s an absolute must-have for anyone wanting to reclaim their space from pet hair!

Fantastic except the battery life
I bought this a couple weeks ago because I needed something that could completely get rid of the dog hair that has been entangled in my Couch fabric and this thing works absolutely amazing. The only thing I don’t like is when it is in “boost “mode it does not last very long the battery dies so soon.
1 reply from Dyson Customer Service team - 10 days ago
Thank you for the fantastic feedback! We’re thrilled your Dyson is tackling pet hair so effectively. We appreciate your input regarding battery life; please be assured that Boost mode is intended for short bursts of intensive cleaning, while Auto or Eco modes offer longer runtimes for everyday use. We're glad to have you in the Dyson family!

Awesome cleaner
We bought the Dyson Gen5detect Absolute vacuum. It is amazing! This is the second Dyson vacuum we have purchased, and I can't imagine ever buying a different brand. Although a little heavier than our last cleaner, it is so much easier to use. The amount of dust the light shows up on the hard floor cleaning head, is scary, but very reassuring to know that it is all picked up. I couldn't be happier with our purchase.
