It's hard to imagine cleaning without this household appliance, isn't it? But how to choose a really good assistant who can not only vacuum clean well, but also have compact dimensions?

We will help you solve this problem - the article discusses the best Dyson hand-held vacuum cleaners with minimal weight and very modest dimensions, selected photos and video recommendations for choosing household appliances. We will also tell you what criteria you should pay attention to when buying, and which ones you can "omit."

In addition, you will find out what these miniature devices are capable of and what features they possess. And the TOP of the best models of the Dyson brand presented below will help to make a choice.

TOP 10 best hand brand models

The ranking includes both exclusively manual models and devices with a vertical handle. All of them differ in cost and technical characteristics. Let us further consider the features of each of the presented vacuum cleaners.

Rank # 1 - Dyson V11 Absolute

The leader in our rating is the relatively new device from the Dyson V11 Absolute line. A nickel-cadmium battery is responsible for the trouble-free operation of the device, which ensures operation without recharging for up to 60 minutes, and charging time - up to 270 minutes.

The suction power of this model is 185 watts, and consumption - 545 watts. The case of the device is equipped with an LCD display, a dust collector filling indicator and a regulator for power control. The vacuum cleaner can work in 3 different modes, and there is a wall mount for storage.

Characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.76 l;
  • weight - 3.05 kg;
  • dimensions - 25 × 26.1 × 126.1 cm;
  • nozzles - 6 pcs.

Like all brand's manual vacuum cleaners, this model has compact dimensions and a rather capacious dust container, which is unusual for manual modifications. There are 6 nozzles in the kit - a large and a small electric brush with bristles and a soft roller for hard coatings, combined, with soft and hard bristles and crevice. All of these accessories are enough for a full cleaning of the room.

This miracle of technology is by no means expensive, while its functionality is at the highest level. Despite the recent appearance of this vacuum cleaner on the market, users have appreciated it.

So, most owners like its portability, low noise, simple operation and good suction power - in turbo mode it is 185 watts.

The main disadvantage is, of course, the price. Some have a little lack of a charge level indicator.

Rank # 2 - Dyson Cyclone V10 Motorhead

The honorable second place in our ranking is occupied by Dyson Cyclone V10 Motorhead. According to users, this is one of the best manual units of the brand from the market. It differs slightly from the previous participant in the rating - about 40 thousand rubles, but in terms of functionality they are very similar.

Characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.54 l;
  • weight - 2.5 kg;
  • dimensions - 25.6x25x124.1 cm;
  • nozzles - 2 pcs.

The suction power, the number of modes and the operating time are identical to the previous model.

It has a lower weight, which was made possible by reducing the volume of the dust bag to 0.54 liters. But, according to users, it is enough for a one-time cleaning of the home.

Only two nozzles are included in the kit - universal and crevice, although they are enough for high-quality cleaning of the apartment. Management traditionally located on the handle.

The owners of this technology liked the opportunity to completely do without wires. They appreciate the power of the device, its mobility, performance and ease of use.

Among the shortcomings most often there are complaints about a clearly overpriced price. Although when compared with the Dyson V8 Absolute, the leader of our rating is slightly more expensive, and the power and time of stand-alone work are much more.

Place # 3 - Dyson V10 Absolute

The third place was taken by a vacuum cleaner from the Cyclone V10 series called Absolute. In everything, including design, it is not fundamentally different from the rating models considered above.

Firstly, the duration of the work, which can reach 60 minutes without recharging. Secondly, the device is able to work in three modes, while in turbo suction power is as much as 151 watts.

Short list of characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.76 l;
  • weight - 2.68 kg;
  • dimensions - 25.6x25x126.6 cm;
  • nozzles - 6 pcs.

As you can see, the manufacturer managed to preserve the compact size, but significantly increased the volume of the dust bag - up to 0.76 liters, although the weight did not change dramatically. That's just the novelty will cost a "tidy" amount.

If you believe the reviews, then this assistant is quite capable of replacing a traditional wired vacuum cleaner, both in power and in functionality. A variety of nozzles allows you to cope with any type of pollution.

Not without flaws, the first of which is the cost. Also, some users would like to adjust the size of the pipe in height, although they note that this does not affect the functionality of the equipment.

Place # 4 - Dyson V8 Absolute

Modification of the Absolute from the Dyson V8 line has many common characteristics with the devices discussed above, but compares favorably with them, primarily, the operating time after recharging - up to 40 minutes.

Characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.54 l;
  • weight - 2.61 kg;
  • dimensions - 25 × 22.4 × 124.4 cm;
  • nozzles - 5 pcs.

This is a fairly compact unit. Although the capacity of its plastic dust bag is enough to clean a 3-room apartment.

With its small dimensions, it has a capacity of more than 150 watts.

The basic package, in addition to the combined and slotted nozzles, includes a set of electric brushes:

  • Fluffy Soft Coated for delicate surfaces;
  • direct drive nozzle for all types of surfaces;
  • mini electric brush for hard to reach places.

Users appreciated the stylish design and ease of use of the device. Many people like good suction power and longer battery life compared to models from the V6 and V7 series.

Of the shortcomings, they mainly call an impressive cost - this vacuum cleaner in the basic configuration will cost about 32,000 rubles.

Rank # 5 - Dyson V7 Parquet Extra

This model of a manual vacuum cleaner is made in the traditional Dyson style. It is equipped with a suction pipe that can be detached if a manual option is required, for example, to clean car mats or a baby chair for feeding.

Characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.54 l;
  • weight - 2.32 kg;
  • dimensions - 21x25x124.3 cm;
  • nozzles - 4 pcs.

The vacuum cleaner operates in two modes: at nominal and maximum power, which does not exceed 100 watts. The first option is advisable to use for everyday cleaning. In this mode, the battery lasts for 30 minutes of operation of the vacuum cleaner. When operating at maximum power, the battery will discharge much faster, then this option is more suitable for removing accumulated debris or heavy contaminants.

Among the positive aspects, users appreciated the quality of cleaning using a turbo brush. In addition, ease of use and stand-alone operation allow you to clean up the room several times faster compared to "wired" counterparts.

If we talk about the cons, some owners complain about the noise, although for vacuum cleaners this noise level is considered the norm.

Place # 6 - Dyson V10 Animal

The manual modification of Digital V10 Animal differs from the previous model in our rating by a little more weight, appearance, and also basic equipment. Its feature is the trouble-free cleaning of the coat of various animals, including long and short cat hair. And judging by the reviews of the owners, he copes with this task perfectly.

Characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.76 l;
  • weight - 2.68 kg;
  • dimensions - 25 × 25.6 × 126.6 cm;
  • nozzles - 5 pcs.

So, in addition to the standard tube, wall mount, combination and crevice nozzles, there is a turbo brush. It copes with severe pollution much more effectively.

The control buttons are located on the handle. Operating time without recharging is up to 60 minutes - depending on the selected mode.

Of the positive aspects, users note the excellent maneuverability of the turbo brush, the small weight of the device, the ease of changing nozzles.

And if we talk about the shortcomings, then to some owners of this equipment the device seems cumbersome for the interior of the car, cramped bathroom and other small rooms. Also, the disadvantages are by no means a small cost and the inconvenient location of the Start button.

Place # 7 - Dyson V7 Fluffy

It is also a manual model of a vacuum cleaner, equipped with a vertical tube and a full-fledged manual design - if necessary, you can easily disconnect the compact hand-held vacuum cleaner and perform cleaning.

It is powered by a lithium-ion battery, which allows it to safely clean up in a small apartment. Operating time on a single charge is not more than 30 minutes. And then you have to recharge the battery.

Characteristics:

  • type - manual + vertical;
  • dust container - 0.54 l;
  • weight - 2.3 kg;
  • dimensions - 25x21x124.3 cm;
  • nozzles - 4 pcs.

As you can see, the device weighs slightly more than manual modifications without a tube. The maximum suction power is 100 watts, but this is in Turbo mode. This force can be reduced with the button on the handle, extending the operability of the device up to 30 minutes.

The basic equipment of this model includes: a charger and a wall mount for it, a large roller brush, a small motorized brush, a combined brush and a narrow crevice nozzle.

Of the advantages, users note low weight, excellent build quality, maneuverability and power.

There were a few more disadvantages. Some owners complain that the blue coating of the tube is very easy to scratch, and the small rubberized wheels of a large brush are constantly clogged with hair, which is difficult to subsequently knot.

Also, many lack the volume of the dust bag, as well as the operating time at maximum power. In addition, there are complaints about the noise level of the unit, but the manufacturer claims that the noise level directly depends on the selected mode. In turbo mode, the vacuum cleaner runs as loud as possible.

Place # 8 - Dyson V7 Trigger

The V7 Series Dyson Cordless Handheld, Trigger, is the latest in the market. Battery operated and designed for dry cleaning. It does not have an extension tube in the kit. Operating time after recharging does not exceed 20 minutes.

  • dimensions - 31.62 × 13.13 × 20.6 cm;
  • nozzles - 2 pcs.

Another difference is the simplified system for emptying the garbage container.

This model must be in a house where there are small children. Agree, not a day goes by so that something does not fall or crumble. In this case, Dyson is simply irreplaceable. It will allow you to cope with crumbled rice or millet in just a couple of minutes, in contrast to bulky stationary "brothers."

Its only drawback is the impressive cost for such a design - more than 18 thousand rubles.

Place # 9 - Dyson V7 Motorhead

The manual model of the brand, which occupies the penultimate ranking position, is also quite popular among buyers. It also runs on a lithium-ion battery, and the battery life does not exceed 30 minutes.

  • dust container - 0.54 l;
  • weight - 2.47 kg;
  • dimensions - 25 × 20.83 × 124.5 cm;

So, in addition to the wall mount for the battery, three nozzles are included in the basic package: a large motorized brush, a combined nozzle and a crevice nozzle. If the first and second will help to cope with the trash on the carpet, under the sofa and on the hard floor, the third will easily remove the crumbs stuck between the back and the seat of the sofa.

The owners of this model are well rated for light weight, excellent build quality and good performance.

Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting minor problems when cleaning the dust collector - according to some owners, dust opens when a container with garbage is opened. Another point that users do not like is that when the charge level decreases, the quality of the cleaning slightly deteriorates.

Rank # 10 - Dyson V11 AbsolutePro

This model refers to manual modifications, operating on battery power and having a removable detachable vacuum cleaner. The operating time is about 60 minutes, which is enough for a full cleaning.

With the help of this machine, you can cope with the cleaning of almost any garbage hidden in even the most inaccessible places. And this is thanks to a large set of brushes and nozzles and the presence of an adapter for cleaning high places that comes with the kit.

If you believe the reviews, then this vacuum cleaner is simply an indispensable thing for owners of apartments and home. It allows you to easily clean even the most difficult places. And for multi-room housing, some users recommend purchasing two Dyson V11 AbsolutePro at once.

Among the cons can be called a very high cost - not everyone who wants to agree to lay out such an amount.

Manual model selection criteria

Handheld vacuum cleaners offered by the Dyson brand are quite an expensive pleasure. In order not to be disappointed after the purchase and not to spare the money spent, you should carefully weigh the pros and cons before acquiring such a technique.

When choosing an ordering assistant, be sure to consider a number of features. So, all models have different parameters. Features that unite them - autonomous work, cyclone filter as a dust collector, compact size and modest weight. But the dimensions, the volume of the dust container, the duration of work on one charge and other characteristics for each model are different. Therefore, we highlight the main selection criteria below.

Criterion # 1 - suction power

If the equipment is purchased for local cleaning in the house, then it is quite enough to take a not too powerful device. This option will cost a little cheaper, but it will be enough for periodic cleaning.

More powerful models are preferred in the case when a replacement is needed for an outdated or out of order vacuum cleaner.

Vacuum cleaner easily copes with wool
Possessing a substantial, as for a manual model, suction force, it is able to easily cope with severe pollution. Even pet hair is not a problem for him.

Criterion # 2 - battery life

The battery life of manual modifications ranges from 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the selected mode. And in mode Turbo it does not exceed 10 minutes. Considering this parameter, you need to build on the tasks that you need to complete.

In addition, if you are the owner of an apartment with a large area, then you should opt for a device that works longer, so you can clean the room on a single charge. Otherwise, you have to recharge the battery several times, and this is a rather lengthy process.

Criterion # 3 - device dimensions

All Dyson handheld units are compact in size, the only difference is their weight, which ranges from 1.5 to 3.5 kg. They are convenient to store, since all versions have a special wall mount designed for recharging and storage.

It looks like an assembled device
The size of the device is one of its significant advantages. Well thought-out design simplifies the storage task. Even when assembled, it does not take up much space

Criterion # 4 - dust collector volume

Considering this characteristic, it is worth noting that the container volume should be selected depending on the tasks put forward.

So, if the unit is purchased for regular cleaning in the house, then it is worth paying attention to models with a large container volume. But this parameter directly affects the weight - the larger it is, the heavier the structure.

Transparent waste bin
A transparent container for collecting garbage allows you to easily see the degree of pollution. A simple procedure for cleaning it is a characteristic feature of all Dyson vacuum cleaners

Criterion # 5 - the number of nozzles

The cost depends on the number of nozzles included in the kit and the type of brushes.

If you believe the user reviews, then in most cases, for a full-fledged cleaning, only two basic ones are enough - combined and crevice.

Flexible nozzle
Among the variety of nozzles, you can even find ones that can easily cope with dust on a cabinet or cornice

Criterion # 6 - type of vacuum cleaner

Manual or combined? If the main goal is to clean up randomly scattered cereals or periodically clean the car / sofa, then a hand-held device will be enough.

If you need regular cleaning in the house, then it is better to take the unit equipped with a pipe. Of course, they are much more expensive than manual modifications, but their functionality is much better.

Cleaning the crumbs from the table
Where the stationary vacuum cleaner will be powerless, the device from Dyson will easily cope with the task. Moreover, he is always ready to work.

Given all the above characteristics, you can choose a really good housekeeper who will simplify the cleaning process and will not be annoying with its dimensions.

Among the vacuum cleaners presented in the rating, you still could not find the suitable option for yourself? But want to find an assistant in the house from this manufacturer? We recommend that you familiarize yourself with rated vacuum cleaners dyson, which includes classic models of cleaners.
