Dyson V11 Torque Drive Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, Blue

We typically just use it one room at a time, but it should be able to last a few rooms. Its also light enough and portable enough to carry up a flight of stairs easily. There are two issues I have with it though. First, its top heavy. Which is obvious, since everything is up top. So, even though its lightweight, for my elderly parents, its not as easy to use. The second issue is more of a design issue. You have to keep your finger on the trigger. Granted its a very light trigger. But when you add in this is top heavy, it easily gets very difficult juggling the weight with the need to constantly pull the trigger. I would have preferred an on off trigger, so that you can hold the vacuum however is most comfortable. As for the vacuum itself. It sucks everything up. What I was most impressed with was how much dust it picks up. Definitely a lot more than my older vacuum. The attachments are also easy to put on, and take off. Emptying the vacuum is easy with the one touch ejection. But definitely empty the vacuum outside in the trash can, as dust does seem to fly around when cleaning it. Other than that, it does whats advertised. Can be used on carpet or hardwood floors. it rolls easy, although cornering takes a bit of work.

I use an older Dyson upright and my wife uses a Bissell stick vacuum After one month: NO MORE CORDS! The V11 is light in weight but heavy on convenience and the suction is amazing. My wife has rheumatoid arthritis and I worried how she would be able to use the V11 with the works in the handle. She says it is as easy to use as the stick vac. It is very well balanced. The trigger switch has not been an issue for either of us. Maneuvering the vacuum head is dead easy and so much more convenient than the fixed heads of other vacuums. The vacuum head goes under cabinet overhangs and furniture, something the upright can’t do. The powered brush head does an excellent job on wood floors. Cleaning ceiling air and filter vents is so much more easy. I was skeptical how the V11 would handle the few short pile area rugs but it cleans them just fine. We have not run out of battery power cleaning our 2300 square foot house. The light weight, convenience and powered head means many small jobs go to the Dyson instead of the Dust Buster. Emptying is easy. My one concern is dust accumulation on the inside surfaces of the vacuum. I use an air compressor to blow out the dust accumulation in the innards of the Dyson upright and it is amazing how much there is. I’ve cleaned the V11 the same way and dust accumulation in it is also amazing. I can’t imagine not having an air compressor to clean these vacuums. The most important point I want to reiterate is that the convenience, light weight and maneuverability of the V11 means floors get vacuumed more often! What is the value of convenience, ease of use and good cleaning? Despite the initial cost, this vacuum can handle the jobs as well if not better than our other vacuums but with magnitudes more ease and convenience.

My wife loves it! I’ve used it a few times and it’s by far the best vacuum I’ve ever used! My roomba is gonna have to find a new occupation lol

This is my second dyson cordless vacuum. I have 4 dogs. After trying to go a cheap route after my first dyson bit the dust, I lasted less than a month before buying another Dyson. The suction and technology is unmatched. One of my favorite attachments is the small beater. It makes vacuuming the couch SO easy.

NOTE: Update below... Just got the new V11 from Amazon. Shipping and packaging was excellent. Now onto the actual Dyson, the VAC itself is amazing!!! However, the Torque Motorhead was a big disappointment on my hardwood floors. The $100 Dirt Devil I have does a better job, but it’s corded, which is why I went for the Dyson. I heard so many positive things about the V11 that I assumed I was just using it incorrectly. Turns out I wasn’t and that the head it comes with isn’t great when using it on bare floors. I contacted Dyson and they said I have to spend another $150 for a bare floor head from the V10 model. Just a heads up for those with mostly hardwoods, look into a V10 package that comes with both heads as it’s a better deal. It comes with both heads and since the V10 is the last model, it’s much cheaper to boot! That being said, the suction seems good on this thing. With the front vent on the included head “closed”, this thing sucks itself to the floor!! Battery life on turbo mode is about 5 or 6 minutes which is enough to super clean a small or medium sized room. (SEE UPDATE BELOW) On regular mode I can do most of my house, which is amazing. It’s also pretty quiet. I don’t like loud noises so I wear noise canceling headphones and listen to music when doing things like mowing and vacuuming. I didn’t need them at all with the Dyson. Overall pretty impressive, just that initial shock of seeing debris left behind on the hardwoods makes me want to give only three stars. I’m hoping the new bare floor head helps. UPDATE: Ive been using the Bare Floor Tool for a few months now and it is 100 times better than the Torque Motorhead on bare floors. It picks up way more stuff and the battery life is more than doubled!! It can also roll over things (like Cheerios) where the Torque Motorhead will just push them around. Also Ive noticed that my bin is fuller when using the Bare Floor Tool, as if the Torque Motorhead was somehow leaving find dust and dirt behind. IF you have all bare floors, try to find a Dyson kit that has the vac and the Bare Floor Tool. The Torque Motorhead will be useless to you. Mine lives in the back of the closet now.

This is the best vacuum cleaner I have ever owned, and I have had an Electrolux and Shark. It is so lightweight that I can just walk with it from room to room; and being cordless, I dont have to worry with plugging it in and dragging the cord around. I am very, VERY pleased with this purchase! Came fairly quickly, too.

My V11 Torque Drive vacuum arrived without issues. I had no problems with the floor brush like some customers have experienced. PROS Appearance It looks nice with its metallic blue color. Plus because of its compact size, it isnt an eyesore if you have to store it in a visible location instead of a closet. LCD Display Its so great knowing how much power is left rather than having to guess how much time I can vacuum before the battery dies. The display also assist in troubleshooting issues like blockages or improper attachment of filter and accessories. Powerful cleaning This vacuum sucks in the good sense of the word. Sensible Accessories There is no unwieldy accordion hose in here. The set of included accessories are stuff I actually would want to use. Im more partial to the combination brush, the motorized brush for upholstery, and the crevice tool, but the whole accessory set seems well thought out. Easy to empty The dust bin is easy to empty, with only one caveat explained in the cons below. CONS Its Heavy! The V11 Torque looks more lightweight than it actually is. As someone with a medical condition, pushing the V11 around takes much more effort than I was hoping for. And the problem isnt resistance from the floor/carpet brush head. Even when used as a handheld vacuum, you will feel the weight. Trigger-happy This vacuum is operated with a trigger that you have to keep pressed for as long as youre using the vacuum. I wish there was a way to lock it in the on position. The trigger doesnt require much pressure to activate though, which is fine while youre vacuuming, but pure evil when youre emptying the dust bin. Long recharge time Battery life is okay for a cordless vacuum, but the 4.5 hours of charging time is too much. I wish this thing had a quick charger, especially considering the size of the power adapter. Speaking of which... What is it with Dyson and incredibly huge power adapters?! I have their hair dryer, the V11 Torque vacuum and the TP04 air purifier, and its like their engineering teams competed for who could get away with using the biggest power plug they could make. The AC adapter for the V11 Torque is not as huge and unwieldy as the power adapter for the TP04 purifier, but its still big and may fall off from outlets with weak grip or outlets mounted sideways. CONCLUSION Dyson products are typically regarded as pricey. Im not sure the V11 Torque is worth the asking price but unlike with their hair dryer, Im not ready to say this vacuum is overpriced. Im torn on whether or not to recommend the V11.

Ive had this vacuum for a day and Im already hooked. Its super easy to vacuum any surface from stairs to the cat tree. No messing with cords and its lighter than a plug-in vacuum. I love all the attachments and that theres a clip to attach two attachments to the broom so I dont have to go to the base station to get them. I finally pulled the trigger on a nice vacuum because the Bissell Id had the last few years kept shooting dirt and cat litter back at my feet instead of picking it up. This one sucks just about everything up! I like the different power modes. The base station is easy to install and use. My one complaint about it is that not all the attachments fit on it. I would love to have all the attachments in one place but theres only room for two. On top of that, the other two wouldnt fit if I tried - theres no clearance with the wall. It would be awesome to have a base station that could fit all the attachments. The only other complaint I have, and the main reason for the 4 star rating, is that the handle creates a pressure point between my thumb and forefinger when Im vacuuming and its uncomfortable. Basically most of the weight rests on that point on my hand. Considering everything else, this vacuum is still excellent and the pros absolutely outweigh the cons. Id buy it again!

We were in the market for another cordless vacuum as the other one we had didnt do very well, so we decided to go for the gusto and invest in a higher quality one that we felt would last longer and do better. With that in mind we finally ended up looking at this Dyson model. After reading the reviews from here and elsewhere we look the plunge, although it was initially hard justifying the money we were putting into it. My wife is the skeptic of the family, so for her seeing was believing with this. She headed upstairs to vacuum the entire upstairs, which includes four bedrooms, two closets, and two baths. When she came down with it full of junk this thing had pulled off the floor she was a convert. Her baseline has always been her Rainbow vacuum that she swears by, but after using this and seeing how well it cleans shes now less eager to haul the Rainbow out and lug it around. Given the long battery life of it, and the incredible suction it has, I now frequently use it to do a quick cleaning of the house as I know its sucking up whatever it comes in contact with. Ive been especially impressed with the suction it has and the battery life of it. Ive vacuumed the entire upstairs and downstairs in a 2900 square foot house and still have plenty of battery life left. It obviously uses less battery on the tiles floors we have in the downstairs area and part of the upstairs, but for the carpeted areas it still gives me plenty of time to thoroughly clean them and still have plenty of battery life left. Both of us are totally sold on this vacuum and would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a cordless vacuum that could very well end your need for a lumbering beast like our Rainbow. The cost is not cheap, but in this case I would say you get what you pay for.

The Dyson V11 Torque Drive Cordless Vacuum is a top-of-the-line cleaning machine that offers powerful suction, intelligent sensors, and a convenient and sleek design. With its ability to adjust suction power and battery life based on the surface being cleaned and a large 0.2-gallon bin capacity, it can tackle any mess with ease. The vacuums versatility is further enhanced by its ability to easily swap brush tools and its support for multiple surfaces. One of the standout features of the V11 is its dynamic adjustment, which adjusts suction power and estimates battery life based on the resistance of the brush head. This allows for a more effective cleaning experience. The vacuum also has an LCD screen that displays battery life and suction power, allowing users to easily switch between Eco, Auto, and Boost modes. Most the time im in auto though versus boosting or eco.
