Dyson V11 Absolute Review

The 3-Minute Dyson Cordless Vacuuming Review

High Powered, High Tech, and Long Lasting

By Rachel Hutson | March 1, 2020

The Specifics:

The Dyson V11 Absolute is one of the strongest cordless vacuum cleaners in the market. They brought out this model this year as an upgrade to the V10 Absolute.

The design of the V11 Absolute is built symmetrically to allow for left or right-handed users. This stylish vacuum comes with a blue wand and dark grey main body and accessories. There is a bright LCD screen display on the back that tells you how much runtime you have left, selected cleaning mode, tells you if the filter needs cleaning, and informs you of blockages.

The weight is 2.92kg with a 0.76L bin volume and a run time of 60min due to its massive 4500mAh battery with 21.6 volts, and a charge time of 4.5 hours. The gold torque drive has 14 concentric cyclones that give a suction power of 185 Air Watts. The filtration on this system is an advanced whole-machine filtration that captures particles that are as small as 0.3 microns.

There is a large variety of attachments that go with the Dyson V11 that suits all your cleaning needs, such as the High Torque cleaner head that can clean on both carpets and hard floors there is also a sensor inside that detects the floor and automatically adjust the power settings.

Features & Design: 5/5 ● Performance: 5/5 ● Value: 4/5

The Best:

Dyson V11 Absolute is designed to clean on hard and soft flooring due to its Auto mode. This Auto mode automatically adjusts to suit the floor surface because of the load sensor placed in the torque cleaner head.  The V11 also has 20% more suction power vs. the V10 due to the digital motor.

Real-time performance monitoring is now available with an LCD Screen. This performance reporting system can tell you how much battery life you have, provides maintenance alerts, and real-time battery usage.

The Bugs:

There have been some reported problems of the brush not spinning this was due to a faulty ring on the inside of the head, Dyson has fixed that and replaced customers heads that had this issue. Proving the high-quality service you get from Dyson.

Is it for you?

If you lack storage space, then this Dyson Cyclone V11 unit will fit your needs with no problems due to its compact design and wall-mounted docking station to store it away neatly. Charging times are good, and the suction power is the best seen on a cordless vacuum.

What we like

The drop in docking-system is wall-mounted, so it neatly stores it and charges it at the same time. The battery has three cleaning modes Eco, Auto, and Boost, that’s optimized for a variety of tasks. The other neat feature is the point and shoot emptying system that means all you do is empty it directly into the bin leaving no mess easy and hygienic.

What we don’t like

The price of the Dyson V11 is exceptionally high, but it is relative to the high-quality product you will get. On that note, we found that with the full set that they didn’t include a soft roller brush head but have been informed by that, you can use the V10 soft roller head.

Should you buy it?

If you are looking for a high quality, high suction, long battery life with precision cleaning, and near-perfect filtration, then the Dyson V11 Absolute is your best choice.
