Having a clean house is important to me. However, having a full-time job, two toddlers who are not exactly tidy, a shedding dog and a husband who tracks in dirt makes keeping a clean house rather challenging. Thankfully, I bought myself the Dyson V15 cordless vacuum cleaner, a purchase that has made it much easier to stay on top of at least one cleaning chore. Using the Dyson V15, I can tackle some really tough messes, which gets me one big step closer to maintaining the clean living space I crave.
The Dyson V15 is on CNET’s best cordless vacuums list, was awarded a CNET Editors’ Choice Award and out-suctioned all its stick vacuum competitors in our laboratory testing. That’s a whole lot of power and performance, which is what I love about it. And yes, it also comes with a pretty hefty price tag. But right now you can get it for $150 off on Dyson’s website, which brings the price down to $600.

This is two days worth of dog hair, which my Dyson can suction up on its highest suction setting from a 500 square foot section of carpet.
Why I love my Dyson V15 vacuum
My Dyson V15 works great for quick clean-ups or deep cleans. Because it’s cordless, I appreciate not having to constantly plug and then unplug it when cleaning the upstairs and downstairs in my home. It doesn’t take up storage space because the charging docking station is mounted in our garage. It’s no surprise to me that the Dyson V15 outperformed most of its competitors during CNET’s lab testing. It is now rated as having the best suction performance for a cordless vacuum.
My Dyson also cleans my car well
My kids’ and pets’ messes aren’t contained to my house so I love how the Dyson easily converts to handheld mode, which comes in handy for suctioning up loose toddler snacks from car seats and car floors. The crevice attachment can reach those in-between spaces in my car and couch cushions.
The Dyson V15 converts into a handheld for easy car cleanup.
Washable HEPA filter is a plus
I love the washable HEPA cloth filter too. No more running out of replacement filters. Simply wash it and let it dry. I also bought a backup replacement filter to use so I don’t have to wait for the original filter to dry before using my beloved Dyson on another mess.
I love how easy it is to clean my Dyson HEPA filter. I have two replacement filters on deck in case one is still wet from washing it.
High-performing vacuum with one flaw
My one complaint is its battery life when using it on its best suction setting: boost mode. Dyson’s boost mode works well picking up my dog’s pet hair, but it drains the battery quickly. To clean two stories in boost mode, it needs to recharge to finish the job, and that can take a few hours.
Dyson has three power modes for different tasks. The overall battery run time varies based on power mode. I find Boost mode to work best on pet hair but will drain the battery quickly.
In the middle setting — auto mode — I can clean the upstairs and downstairs of my 2,000-square-foot home on a single charge, and it works well on hard floors and pretty well on carpet. Auto mode is fine for in-between cleanings, but boost mode works best for a deep carpet clean.
