The main way the Absolute differs from Dyson’s other cordless models is the presence of a post-motor filter, as well as the now standard pre-filter.Most models come with two cleaners heads, but every model has either a Motorbar™ cleaner head or a Digital Motorbar™ cleaner head that is suitable for carpeted floors. Advantage for allergy sufferers: With the emptying function, allergy sufferers in particular get their money's worth, as the dust does not get back into the home. The motorbarᵀᴹ cleaner head has stiff nylon bristles to remove ground-in dirt on carpets and black anti-static carbon fibre filaments to extract dust from hard floors. The hard floor cleaner head was perfect for kitchen spills, picking up fine powders in a single sweep.

There are some brilliant Dyson vacuums out there, but we've also found worthy alternatives from other brands, including much cheaper options. Don’t take that as a negative, though: Mr Dyson is well-known for eye-catching, yet practical home appliances and the: “if it ‘ain’t broke don’t fix it” approach rings true here more than most. Auf dem Laminat geht es ja mit normalen Saugern schon ganz gut weg, aber auf Teppichen hat man dort meist keine Chance. In the box you'll also find an illuminated Fluffy Optic floor head for hard floors, a low-reach adaptor to help you clean under sofas and chairs, and a charging cable that can be used with or without the wall dock.One battery lasts 60 minutes meaning I could comfortably vacuum my entire flat in one go, though if you have a bigger house you might consider investing in the double battery version.
