DysonV8 CycloneProduct profile · features, trade-offs and buying fit | ValueLightweightMixed Floors | 150 Air Watts manufacturer-rated suction Up to 60 minutes runtime in Eco handheld use 0.54 L bin, 2.7 kg body and swappable 7-cell battery | The 60-minute figure is an Eco-mode manufacturer claim and falls with powered heads or higher modes; choose it for lower weight and simpler ownership rather than assuming flagship cleaning performance. | Check current retailerlive price not maintained |
DysonV11 AdvancedProduct profile · features, trade-offs and buying fit | BalancedCarpetBattery | 200 Air Watts manufacturer-rated suction Up to 60 minutes runtime with removable battery architecture 0.77 L bin and Motorbar cleaner head | The 60-minute runtime is an Eco-mode claim; high-power use is shorter. At around 3 kg it is heavier than V8 Cyclone, so stairs and handheld use remain a meaningful trade-off. | Check current retailerlive price not maintained |
SharkStratos Cordless Pet Pro IZ400ANZProduct profile · features, trade-offs and buying fit | SpecialistPetsMixed Floors | Up to 60 minutes stated runtime in ECO + carpet mode Clean Sense IQ automatically adjusts power from an infrared dirt sensor Self-cleaning brushroll, motorised pet tool and removable battery | Shark states only around 9–10 minutes in its high modes, so the 60-minute headline is not representative of maximum-power cleaning. At 4 kg it is also substantially heavier than V8/V11. | Check current retailerlive price not maintained |
DysonGen5detect AbsoluteProduct profile · features, trade-offs and buying fit | PremiumHard FloorsFiltration | Up to 70 minutes manufacturer-stated fade-free runtime Whole-machine HEPA filtration to 0.1 micron manufacturer test standard Fluffy Optic illumination, particle counting and single-button power control | Dyson first-party pages currently show inconsistent suction-power figures for Gen5detect, so Australian Product Guide deliberately does not use an Air-Watt figure as a decision fact here. Runtime also varies by floor head and mode. | Check current retailerlive price not maintained |
DysonV15s Detect Submarine CompleteProduct profile · features, trade-offs and buying fit | SpecialistWet CleaningHard Floors | Submarine motorised wet roller head for hard-floor washing Up to 60 minutes stated runtime with swappable click-in battery 0.77 L bin, particle sensing and Digital Motorbar hair de-tangling | The wet roller is for hard floors, not carpet washing. Dyson’s page has differing suction figures between hero copy and the specification table, so Australian Product Guide does not use suction Air Watts as a ranking input for this record. | Check current retailerlive price not maintained |
