The best Dyson vacuums: A guide to the latest versions of stick, ball, and handheld cleaners
Dyson has carved out a major position in the home tech arena. Though the name appears in categories from air purification to beauty, its expertise is the most prominent in vacuums.
The brand’s genesis stems from the same frustrations we’ve all had with one vacuum cleaner or another. In the early ’90s, a British engineer — who was fed up with his current clunky, clogged vacuum — set out to create a vacuum that’s not a chore in itself to use.
Enter an ergonomic design, funky colors, intense cyclonic suction, meticulous filtration, and an ingenious bagless dirt collection system … and so the Dyson vacuum was born. It’s the kind of suction power that’s so satisfying to wield, it seems unfair to let a robot vacuum take all the credit.
Originally, Dyson’s claim to fame was its upright vacuum, eventually expanding into canister vacs as well. Both were built around The Ball: a rolling sphere that allows the vacuum to curve around furniture and tricky obstacles with a flick of the wrist. They had such impressive suction and were so tough on pet hair that people put up with the fact that they were also heavy and hard to store.
Dyson officially cut that cord in 2018, when James Dyson announced that the company would halt production of corded vacuums to focus on the less cumbersome It Girl, the cordless stick vacuum.
The cordless stick vacuum family, however, is updated so often that it’s hard to keep up with which models do what. The deciding factors will narrow down to weight, suction power (the higher the suction, the better performance on pet hair and carpet), the number of attachments, battery life, and new tech like lasers — and, of course, how much you can justify spending on a vacuum.
We’ll point out which Dyson stick vacuums between V7 and V15 are best for each budget, plus dive into differences compared to models that ditch V-number titles, like the Outsize series. While the guide below does include two non-stick models because they are still sold at some retailers, those product lines won’t be expanded on.
Here are our picks for the best Dyson vacuums:

Our pick: Samsung Bespoke Jet cordless stick vacuum with All-in-One Clean Station
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
The Samsung Bespoke Jet cordless stick vacuum and All-in-One Clean Station just hit a new all-time low in the woody green color. Just yesterday, it was down to $449.99 (reg. $899), but on March 23, you can slash another $28 off on the sleek forrest option and grab it for $421.73. The other two color options, midnight blue and misty white, remain at $449. We like the Samsung Bespoke Jet for its auto-emptying dustbin after each cleaning and its aesthetic element. We don’t particularly appreciate its $900 price tag, which makes this 53% discount a total steal.

Our pick: LG CordZero A9 Kompressor wet/dry cordless stick vacuum
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
Not quite as fancy as the All-in-One, but also not as expensive, the LG CordZero A9 is still a powerhouse of a vacuum. It’s neck and neck with the All-in-One in terms of battery life, dustbin capacity, mopping abilities, attachments, and filtration. The major difference is that the A9 doesn’t come with the all-in-one tower with automatic emptying (which will cost you an extra $200). If you don’t mind emptying the dustbin yourself, you can save that extra money and snag the A9 Kompressor instead. It’s on sale for only $499.99 as of March 2 — that’s $300 in savings and its lowest price to date.

Baby’s first price drop: The 2023 M2 Mac mini just got a $50 discount at Amazon for the first time since its release in January. That drops the cost of the base model with 256GB of storage down to $549 and the 512GB option down to $749. For desktop performance in a small footprint, few systems rival Apple’s Mac mini. Its Apple-designed processor provides faster CPU performance, faster graphics processing, and faster machine learning capabilities, so your computer learns how you use it and improves its performance and accuracy based on that knowledge. Add to that an array of ports, and you’re set up for success. All you need is to add a monitor.

Our pick: Halo Rise bedside sleep tracker
(opens in a new tab)
Why we like it
A contactless sleep tracking gadget, unlike a fitness tracker or smartwatch, the Halo Rise sits on your bedside table to analyze your sleep patterns and provide recommendations on how to improve them. There’s no microphone or camera, in an effort to keep your privacy first. Instead, the Rise has a sensor that measures body movement and breathing patterns throughout the night, as well as things like room temperature, humidity, and light. It’s also equipped with a sunrise and sunset simulation mode that can help you wake up or wind down. It’s usually $140, but as of March 2, it’s on sale for just $99.99 — that’s 29% off and its lowest price to date.

Arsenal predicted line-up vs Everton as Mikel Arteta set to stick with new attacking trio
As four-day workweek trial ends, most companies stick with the change
The world’s largest trial of a four-day week ended this week — and 92% of the companies that participated plan to continue with the truncated work schedule because the benefits were so clear.
The study of 61 UK-based companies and about 3,000 employees delivered results that are largely consistent with existing evidence from other studies, “further demonstrating the benefits of reduced-hour, output-focused working,” the study concluded.
