Dyson V12 Review & Tests
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 ноя 2022
- We review and test the Dyson V12 Detect Slim cordless vacuum. Tests include carpet, hard floor, hair, edges, noise level, etc. We also dicuss all vacuum features. See it on Amazon: amzn.to/3GJmH7D
Also see the written V12 review: vacuum-cleaner-advisor.com/Dy...
We highlight that there are currently three V12 models and we show and what is in the box when you get your V12. We also we test the Hair Screw Tool on debris and hair.
We show the tool clip and what tools will fit on it and how it works. The Motorbar cleaner head is removed from the vacuum and each detail of the cleaner head is discussed. We show how the anti-tangle technology works and how to remove and reinstall the brushroll. We do the same thing for the Laser Slim Fluffy cleaner head.
The V12 is the first Dyson cordless vacuum we've reviewed with a power button as opposed to a power trigger. We walk through how each works.
There are three power modes. ECO, AUTO and BOOST. AUTO is an excellent feature and we discuss how the dust sensor increases and decreases suction depending on the amount of dust in the incoming air. Also, AUTO power mode only works with motorized tools so when using the crevice tool and the combo tool, AUTO becomes MEDIUM. The vacuum does this automatically.
A table is provided that compares the suction power of the Dyson V12 with that of the V7, V8, V10, V11 and V15.
We also discuss how powerful or weak the suction power of the V12 is.
This unit has a click-in battery which makes it easy to charge (can be charged on or off the vacuum) and can also double your runtime should you go out and buy a second battery. This is a brilliant feature for those who want or need a longer run time.
We show the features of the LCD control panel on the back of the handheld unit.
We test run times in all three power modes and on both carpet and hard flooring. We compare our results to those of the manufacturer.
We weighed the V12 at 5.2 lbs with the Motorbar cleaner head and 4.6 lbs with the Fluffy cleaner head. We provide a table that shows where the V12 stands with respect to weight when compared to a host of other cordless machines we've reviewed over the years.
V12 movement is excellent as is the movement of pretty much every Dyson cordless we've had the opportunity to investigate.
We performed a series of cleaning tests. Low Pile Carpet, Tile, Hair, Edges. Each test is shown and the results are discussed.
The dust canister on the vacuum is small. We compare it to the size of the dust canisters on other Dyson cordless vacuums and we show how to empty the V12.
A digital noise level meter is used to capture the noise level of the vacuum in all three power modes. We provide a table that compares the V12 noise level to that of other popular cordless vacuums.
We show how to remove and clean the filter and we discuss what a sealed system is and why it is important.
Finally, we provide a summary of our findings.

Saying "an excellent review!" is an understatement. Thank you! :)
Thank you for the kind words!
This is the most comprehensive review I've seen of any vacuum cleaner. 💯
I love the laser feature because you can actually see the dust. Overall a awesome review. ❤️✌️
I just purchased this. Sooo excited. I love the second battery option, great tip
Thank you for this review. I received the v12 slim as a gift
Really good review, especially with the explanation of tool maintenance. Great job!
Best review I’ve seen so far!! Thanks a lot!!!
Very nice review. Thank you🙏🏼
I was considering the V15, but the V12 is enough for me I think.
Ordered that.
Greetings from Denmark, and happy New Year.
Love this review. Well done. Just what I was looking for. Updating from my Dyson DC35 still works great but want something new.
best review of anything i have ever seen in my life!
Agree. This is an excellent review. Helped understand features/how to use better than any other! Thank you.
That's how you review stuff. Well done
Thanks, i like that they are so light. Im going to get one.
Wonderful review 👍 Talked me into the 12 for car cleaning.
Excellent review. Very balanced, spelling out the good and not so good.
I just ordered the V12. I went to Best Buy to try it out physically and talk to the rep onsite. Thanks for the review! I have a husky and I was tired of dragging out my heavy and old but good Kirby diamond series. I also like the slim because I have lot of smaller area that's just too hard to reach with my Kirby because you need to remove the head and installed the hose to the Kirby.
Very good review! Thank you!
Nice review. I’m contemplating on getting the v12 over the v15
Excellent review, thank you so much.
i am using a v12 and super happy with it
Excellent review!! THE BEST!
Hey guy, sorry to hear you been under the weather. Get well soon ! I’ve been a vac guy for years, tho not professional. Mostly, I get vacs at the dumpsters. I take them apart, clean, sanitize, and get new filters for them. One of my favorite modern vacs is the Dyson upright ball. Old school - def the Electrolux classic. Anyway, I have refurbed two Dyson cordless - sv9, and more recently a v10. Two glaring things I do not like are the small canister, and difficult disassembly for deep cleaning. But I suppose like most modern appliances, they are “disposable”. I guess that’s ok if you can afford a new one every two years - Yikes !
Just bought and I love mine!! Can do a quick and easy vacuum of entire house in between major cleaning with Miele canister. With three dogs, this is such a wonderful convenience. It’s so light and the suction is great. If I hurry, I can do 2000 sq ft on one charge, with lots of carpet, hardwood and tile. Only minor complaint is the small canister and airborne dust when emptying. Will wear a mask in the future. I looked at other larger Dyson models and none were nearly as comfortable in my hand. I plan to purchase a second battery so I can take a little more time in certain areas.
Great channel, and review!
Can’t wait for the new gen5 detect review soon
Excellent review as always - I tried every incarnation of Dyson Cordless and have returned every single one of them. It is an awesome lineup, however the battery run time is atrocious and makes this a super expensive toy no matter what convenience you get for 5 min run time on max.
Great review!
Awesome review
Thank you for this thorough review. I am debating between the V 12 and the V 15. I have watched a couple of other reviews and I guess what I have to offer other readers is that our use case is a large home with multi surface floors, two kids and one cat. We didn’t have a problem with the dust bin filling up on our previous Dyson V7. We use the cordless vac for quick touchups around the kitchen and dining area. I believe lightweight and push button outweighs heavier, and larger dustbin in our case. I want our little kids to learn to help us with this task, too.
Question: if you purchase an extra battery, and you have the charger connected to the wall mount, how do you keep the extra battery charged when the charger is being used for the main unit?
GREAT tip about buying a second battery!! Best, most helpful video for this machine!! I couldn't get help anywhere else! When will the machine last for an hour?
This is such a great, overall good review. I appreciate all the time and energy you put into making this video. My husband bought me this vacuum for Christmas. I had wanted a new Dyson, but I hadn’t researched into a the new Dyson models in over 3 years. I bought the Dyson V 10 about three years ago and it’s been a great vacuum! It’s definitely made me fall in love with the Dyson brand for sure. But unfortunately, I’ve used the vacuum so much, it’s pretty much toast! The lever to empty the trash barely works, I have to mess with it every time I go to empty the vacuum. Also, my battery is operating at about 50%. Those have both been recent breakdowns into my v10 vacuum, so I knew it was time for another one. I was a little irritated at my husband for not even asking me which specific model I had wanted, especially when spending over $500 of our hard earned money, but I won’t go into that, lol! How does one complain about such a nice Christmas gift?!
But after listening to your review, I feel so much better about having this new vacuum. I think it’s going to work out just fine for me and my particular needs. I think it will be nice to have a slimmer, more light vacuum. I always hated the fact that a cordless vacuum is always going to be super top heavy. I’ve got another cordless vacuums and realized Dyson was actually on the light side of “top heavy”, but it’s still nice to get something lighter than the “usual” Dyson model. Also, I personally love the fact that this model doesn’t have the pull trigger when vacuuming. Call me a wimp, but it bothered my fingers for sure! That’s actually probably what makes me the happiest about getting this vacuum, is learning that the V 15 doesn’t even have this feature! The only thing that worries me about this vacuum is the trash bin looks very small. I guess I will just have to get in there and find out. I still haven’t used the vacuum yet. I wanted to research it and be 100% sure I wanted it before turning it on and getting it all dirty.
Hi Nola Girl - Some good information in your comment. Also, glad you liked the review!
I just bought one and not only do they not include a manual but there was no quick start guide either. Your video is better than any Dyson instructions would be but I'm irked they didn't include a word about how to use the vacuum and accessories. After seeing your review and that it's not the more powerful of the Dyson cordless models I may have chosen differently but then again probably not. I didn't want the trigger models and lightweight was important to me. So far I really like it a lot and seems to pick up well on my floors. Thank you for the great review.
Would u like a manual for the toothbrush also?
Thank you but my toothbrush doesn't have to be taken apart and cleaned 🤐
@@janw7157Must say, I am relieved. Was worried there for a sec.
Appreciate for all your videos. I just bought it same V12 Vacuume.
That small hair removal tool at 2:52 really got manufactured poorly. I was surprised that the tiny red line got unglued on mine and though "oh well. I must've used it wrongly" but then I found on that timestamp that yours is coming off too.
Same for me also 😅the small hair removal quality is just low.
Nice video! I bought one but I can’t attach the hair screw tool to it!
Hi . I love your reviews!
I tried this vaccum and I think is very quiet with the fluffy brush, the other brush makes lot of noise comparing to the fluffy one right ??
Liked your test.... which brand did the best overall? I'm looking to purchase a hand held? Thank you
Looking to upgrade from a shark vacuum we’ve had for almost 10 years now. Trying to get to figure out why these vacuum cleaners are so expensive before I buy one for Black Friday lol
Any news for dyson Gen5 vacuum?
You will review that one too?
I've heard dyson has released a new series of their stick vacs called the gen5. Maybe you can ask them to send you one over for a future review. Looks promising
any chance of buying a fluffy head laser model for the v8. pretty cool demo. thanks
Love this vacuum but on my carpet kinda hard to push because of the suction
Are you doing any new videos soon? I miss your great reviews!
nice work
11:21 Ask:
If you have connected the wallmount, can you charge the spare battery in that wallmount?
THANK YOU!!!!!!
Good review. Is there any other more affordable cordless good for carpets?
Thank you
Unfortunately you only get what you pay for, have tried other brands of cordless stick vacs & Dyson is imho the best.
Great vids. I’m a huge fan of dyson vacuums. The website used to clearly list hepa* filter under select vacuums. I cannot find the wording anymore. Would you know anything about it? Or am I misunderstanding the filtration?
All current Dyson models meet or exceed the requirements for the HEPA claim through the multiple filtration stages (metal mesh, pre filter, cyclones, post filter etc), but they stopped calling it HEPA as it was causing customers to think that the filter itself was HEPA grade which it was not. The models that have a cyan coloured filter however do include a specific filter which by itself is HEPA. The models with cyan HEPA filters will capture particles down to 0.1 microns vs 0.3 on the purple filters.
I have been using the V11 Torque Drive for the past few years and over the last few months, I experience an issue where it would keep running even after releasing the trigger. I have to hit the battery to get it to stop. I am looking for something that is lighter and does not have a trigger and it sounds like the V12 may be my best option. However, most of my vacuuming is done on low pile carpet. In your honest opinion, would the V12 be sufficient enough to remove dirt, debris, and cat hair from the carpet, even on the automatic/medium mode?
You should be measuring the noise level from where it is generated. That would be the length of your arm to where the motor is located, because obviously the motor produces the noise.
I have a dog and wondering how the Motorbar head works on hard floors for picking up debris and dog hair.
Is it possible to overcharge the battery? Or does it automatically stop charging when its full and on the wall mount?
Thank you
What mode will give me the best suction?
in your opinion would a V12 be powerful enough for a 2200 sq ft home includes both floors .... mostly hardwood with , numerous area rugs.....one room with carpet.....we have one pet...also is it powerful enough to do a good job cleaning your car ? i guess my only concern would be the smaller dust bin.....if it lasts for one floor that would be perfect...i must admit i like the idea of a power button and the lighter weight just as long as it does a very good job cleaning....its 899 here in Canada.....V15 detect 999 / outsize plus 1249 / Gen5 detect 1199........i will want to buy a spare battery and Detail Kit.....i look forward to your opinion i think i am very close at deciding finally...lol...thx again for your review...cheers from Canada
What is the maximum square footage home do you recommend for the v12?
What tool to use for low pile or wool carpet
The medium settings bothers me a lot. Medium with 35 or 40 would be great, but 23… its only half the power of the V15. With the powered heads its not so big of a problem, but with the small suction tube for example or if you want to vacuum dust with the brush it will be a big different. A test like that is really missing.
I have carpal tunnel, arthritis, and very small hands. Trigger was a major issue for me.
bro is the bob ross of vacuums
I’m not reading anything about the v12 having hepa filtration. Any recommendations on a vacuum cleaner with hepa to it?
All current Dyson models meet or exceed the requirements for the HEPA claim through the multiple filtration stages (metal mesh, pre filter, cyclones, post filter etc), but they stopped calling it HEPA as it was causing customers to think that the filter itself was HEPA grade which it was not. The models that have a cyan coloured filter however do include a specific filter which by itself is HEPA. The models with cyan HEPA filters will capture particles down to 0.1 microns vs 0.3 on the purple filters.
So I just ordered the v15, I thought about trading for gen5 outsize I have 3 dogs, help
For the Suction Power table around 8:50 where did you get the numbers?
These are from the reviews I've done over the years on each Dyson cordless. At the time of each review the data were either found from an official source online (Dyson.com usually) or by contacting Dyson directly. The figures are from the time the review was performed. They would not take into account any suction power changes Dyson may have made to different models over the years (if indeed they have).
@@VacuumAdvisor What stands out to me is how the Eco and Medium on the V12 are both worse than the Low on the V8. Assuming the Max setting is almost never used on either model, would you recommend the V12 over a brand new V8?
@@saunaonfirethe medium mode reading is based on a clean floor. If the floor is dirty it boosts up well beyond V8’s low suction with the adaptive suction. It’s also possible to make the adaptive suction more aggressive in boosting automatically by holding down the red rear button for a few seconds to access the menu
Do you know If v15 battery fit into v12 vacuum??? I can't fit v12 battery anywhere.
No you can’t unfortunately. Would be great if possible to allow extended runtime for v12 or lighter weight on v15
I liked the overall review. Give me a perspective of the product. Just a small note, sound is too low.
I tried on my carpet,, doesn't work, keeps shutting off 🤨
the step between the medium and the max mode is too big. the max mode is mostly useless because of short running time and the heavy accu stress. 👀
Just bought one and I cannot agree more
For this, hold down the red button on the back of the screen for a few seconds, it’ll open a menu that lets you choose how aggressively it automatically adjusts the suction. You can set it to be more aggressive in adapting the suction on auto to reduce your need to use the boost mode. This is mostly a vacuum made for small spot cleans, not a whole home cleaner like v15 or gen 5
@@Clove_Parma thanks. yes I know. but the max mode is real stress for the accus and can not be adjusted. the medium default auto mode is okay for me. 🙂
Good evaluation but all of the test are done at a crawl speed.. At those speed, it would take my wife a week to clean the floors !. Suction capacity is very important to consider. Especially if you already have an absolute V-8. The V-8 in eco mode has a better suction capacity compared to the V-12 ! This,is the deal breaker! The only reason Dyson is slowing the speed of the V12 is to get the target one hour of operation.. And yes.. it dose, but the V8 absolute is already missing some suction capacity at the eco. I thought that V-12 would hit it out of the ball park.. ? That means it's less efficient than the previous model (V8 absolute) In my opinion.. It's not worth changing for a new less efficient model. Thanks for the evaluation It help me make my decision.
One of the best review I've seen in a long time. Outstanding job. Thanks for taken time to share this with us.
Does it needs to be on the charger whole time or only when the battery is low?
Saw and read plenty of reviews. Battery holds power very well. So unplug it after charging.
Like with all other batteries 😃
is the V12 220/240V?
No it`s battery powered!
What is your Product Price ?
$500 here @ target
it's $650. sale price is $500
Thank you for your help! Dyson will not help at all!! Their customer service is the absolute worst, it really is shockingly BAD!!
auto, which stands for automatic. 😛
no more videos
Actually been sick and can't do videos. We'll see what happens.
@@VacuumAdvisor Are you doing better?
@@VacuumAdvisor how are things?
@@VacuumAdvisor I hope you're well. I miss your reviews! Fingers crossed you're healthy.
Jesus that's a lot of money for a vacuum.
Seriously dude? 112 videos and not a single bagged machine? How can you call yourself an advisor and not show the inherently superior design?
I think you broke him. Not a single video in 11 months

Nothing reviewed on this so called "advisor" channel is worth buying, clearly just another cash grab review channel like VacuumWars
Awesome review! Thank you so much.
