When the news that Dyson added a portable vacuum to its range reached my ears, I was excited. It is a brand known for its advanced engineering; His conceptions for sure. What innovations would they offer for the brand new Dyson Car + Boat?
It turns out that not much. When I unpacked my revision model, it was familiar. The specifications also seemed very similar to what I remembered from another vacuum. Then I released my old Dyson V8, to compare, and I had a Lindsey Lohan Parents trap moment. The car + the boat was not only similar to the V8, it was identical. To create the car + boat, Dyson took a V8, removed the baguette and the ground heads and blew up a new attachment in the box. It even indicates “Dyson V8” on the box of my revision model.
All dyson stick vacuum cleaners can be transformed into a portable model by removing the wand from the ground and adding a detail tool, so if you already have a more recent dyson, you might feel extinguished if you decide to pay for a boat +. Two of the three accessories included with the Car + boat are also grouped as standard with Dyson stick vacuum cleaners – namely the crevasse tool and the Combo tool. I guess the third (a new hand attachment) will also be added to the Dyson accessories store at some point.
I write this the day before the new model for sale to the general public, and there is a chance that Dyson moved its formulation to indicate that the boat + boat is not a new model when it is officially published to the public . I think it would be a good decision, because if you are aware of it, the fact that the car + the boat is the same that the V8 is not necessarily a bad thing. Let me explain …
A practical solution?
When I heard about this model for the first time, I said that I thought it seemed ready to blow up other labor computers out of the water, and now I I tested properly for my magazine Dyson because + Boat, many things that I initially enthusiastic are just as impressive in practice.
The V8 is not the best Dyson vacuum based on specifications. It was released in 2016, and there are currently three more recent voids in the range: Dyson V11, V15 Detect and Gen5detect. However, the V8 East The best option for portable use. It is the lightest of the three (considerably thus, in the case of the most recent Gen5detect, which is sad in a 7.7 lb compared to the 5.6 pounds of the V8). It is also the most compact, and therefore better to enter clumsy corners and corners.
In fact, I would go so far as to say that the V8 is better suited to use as laptop than as empty on the ground. The dust cup is slightly irritating for a vacuum at home, but generous for a pocket computer. The same goes for the battery life – 50 minutes may not be enough time to clean a large house, but it is more than enough for a car, and much longer than you will even have With the best car vacuums on the market.
You do not obtain the online design maximized suction introduced with the V11 (where the cyclones, the baguette and the dust are all stacked online), but it may be less a problem when the suction head is so close to the engine, rather than the whole path at the end of a wand.
In short, the V8 is always an excellent pocket vacuum. I would be delighted to see what Dyson could find if he was trying something really new in the portable vacuum area.
