Our favorite cordless Dyson vacuum is discounted by $100 for a limited time only – hidden dirt and pet hair are no match, with a laser that reveals it all

As far as vacuums go, Dysons are often seen as the gold standard, but they usually come with the price tag to match.

If that is something that usually puts you off the big upgrade, we have great news. Homes & Garden’s favorite Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum is on sale at Dyson now, with $100 off for a limited time – and the deal is seriously sweet.

We gave the Dyson V15 Detect five stars in our review for good reason. This relentless cleaner makes light work of any type of mess, even picking up on the fluff, dust, and lint our eyes miss with its green laser technology. It is the answer to your cleaning prayers.

Why the Dyson V15 Detect is more than worth it

Tested by our in-house home tech expert Dan Fauzi, they share, ‘The smart tech in this Dyson vacuum has genuinely transformed how easy it is for me to clean my home, and no mess ever gets left behind now that I can see exactly what's on my floors. It's a game changer to own a vacuum cleaner that can pick everything, including what isn't visible to the naked eye, in one pass.’

With over 1,000 bought on Amazon in the last month alone, we are not the only ones who love this nifty multi-surface vacuum cleaner, either.

Verified shopper Amanda Straub shared in their review, ‘The first time I used it, I was disgusted. I had just vacuumed the day before, and when I gave [the Dyson V15] a try, I was shocked by how much dog hair was on the floors that only seemed to show under that bright green light!

'Now I am obsessed with vacuuming. It really does help you find every tiny little piece of dust, and there are so many attachments to get that allow it to be used everywhere (car, furniture, walls, crevices, etc.).’

The Dyson V15 Detect really shines when it comes to removing pet hair.

Verified Best Buy Shopper SlyT shared, ‘The fact that this vacuum can turn into a handheld vacuum that comes with an attachment specifically to clean up pet dander is gold! I’ve cleaned my couches with this, and it helped make them look brand new. ‘ The vacuum automatically detangles hair for you, cutting out one of the most irritating jobs about cleaning a house with pets – easily making it the best vacuum for pet hair.

How often you need to vacuum varies wildly depending on your lifestyle, household, and floor types – but I certainly find myself spending more time than not trying to eliminate every speck of dust, strand of hair, and crumb from floors all over my home – and the Dyson V15 Detect is the answer to finally cutting down on my current thrice-weekly vacuuming efforts.

FAQs

Can you leave the Dyson V15 Detect on charge all the time?

According to a Dyson assistant, you can leave your Dyson V15 detect charging all the time when not in use, as built-in software means it will only ever take in enough power to fully recharge, and then keep itself topped up. This means it is always ready to grab and go.

What is the average lifespan of a Dyson?

On average, when used correctly and properly maintained, a Dyson vacuum is expected to last between seven and ten years. How often you use the vacuum, which surfaces you use it on, which dirt it is used for, where you store it, and how you clean a vacuum can all impact this, however.
