''Having used it for a week, I am beginning to think it could be the best Dyson cordless vacuum to date, or at least the best for me.''
The Dyson V12 Detect Slim’s lightweight design and wide selection of tools allows you to remove dirt everywhere and anywhere!
"It can move in any direction and this allows you to vacuum hard floors in a completely different way to the back-and-forth motion we’re all so accustomed to."
"A very small, lightweight and flexible vacuum, the Dyson Omni-glide is a top cleaner for hard floors, and a great handheld vacuum for smaller spills."
Specialist illuminated cleaner head, engineered for hard floors
A precisely-angled beam detects the particles you can't normally see.
-
Finely-engineered
A custom lens spreads a beam into a fan shape, exactly 1.5° down and 7.3mm from the ground, to illuminate fine dust but not the surface it sits on.
-
Green angled beam
The human eye’s evolutionary sensitivity to green light means we see it brighter than other colours, enhancing contrast and making hidden dust clearly visible
Engineered with powerful Dyson technology
Dyson's core vacuum technologies, combined to create a powerful, compact and highly-manoeuvrable cordless vacuum.
-
Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor
Small and light. Spins at up to 105,000rpm to create powerful suction on hard floors.
-
Compact, powerful cyclones
Eight cyclones generate forces of 98,000g to remove microscopic dust from the airflow.
-
Push-button operation
With power and mode selection buttons instead of a trigger, you can swap hands easily while cleaning around obstacles.
-
No touch bin emptying.
Quick bin emptying. Our quick release mechanism makes emptying the bin simple and hygienic.
-
Stores and charges
The Dyson Omni-glide™ vacuum drops into the wall-mounted charging dock, ready for your next clean.
-
Easy to maintain
The filter and Fluffy™ brush bar can be washed, and the bin and tools wiped clean, to remove dust build-up and help optimise your Dyson vacuum’s performance.⁷
-
Click-in battery
Remove and replace at the press of a button for even longer cleans – and to charge on or off the machine.⁸
