• Clogging & debris preventionthe omlid Flour clog test was also the only Dyson to fail our flower clock testmuch of the flower it picks up deposits on its premotor filterthe omni's performance in this test indicates that its filter clogs up very easily with fine debris
• Comparative performancethis is substantially less air flow and suction than that of any other Dyson Corless vacuum we've tested
• Crevice / Groove Pickup (Hard Floors)this vacuum did not Crevice test perform well in our hard floor crevice test it couldn't pull most of the flower out of the crevice even after over 20 back and forth passes

Dyson Omni-glide REVIEW - A New Way to Vacuum Hard Floors

What We Loved

• Floorhead designit uses two of dyson soft rollers which spin in opposite directions to pick up debris
• Floorhead Seal on Hard Floorsmaintaining a good seal on floors
• Hard Floor — Fine Dust Pickuppick up super fine debris basically dusting hard floorsit was nearly perfect with every type and size of debris we used everything from fine to extra large and even heavy debris
• Hard Floor — Large Debris Intakepick up large debris while maintaining a good seal on floorsit was nearly perfect with every type and size of debris we used everything from fine to extra large and even heavy debris
• Innovation compared to competitorsit's not a gimmick it's a genuinely good innovation that's well executed design wise
• Maneuverability & Handlingthe articulating neck and 360 degree casters on the bottom make it incredibly maneuverable and able to do things and go places regular vacuums can'tit does all this with almost no resistance
• Overall opinionbasically i think the dyson omni glide is a real game changer for hard floor vacuumingoverall i think it's a great value for the price
• Price & Valueoverall i think it's a great value for the price
• Weightit's the lightest cordless vacuum handle i've ever weighed for reference it's almost half the weight of the recent dyson v15

Just Okay

• Battery & Chargingthere's a removable battery in the handlethe battery life wasn't great
• Bin & Bagthere is a dust bin that functions much like the recent dyson cordless vacuums though it is quite a bit smaller than previous models
• Controls & UIthe handle has two buttons an on off button and a max power button
• Hair‑Wrap / Tangle Resistancehair didn't get caught in the roller per se it did get caught in the axles of the roller
• Mopping performancehair didn't get caught in the roller per se it did get caught in the axles of the rollerregular maintenance in terms of brush cleaning is a must

Needs Improvement

• Accessories & Toolsmine came with a combo dusting brush slash crevice tool and a wall mount i was kind of expecting the new led crevice toolit was just a little awkward to use for most dusting applications
• Carpet — Medium-Pile Pickupi did try it on our medium carpet and it quickly stopped the brushes and was ineffective so it's just not to be used on carpets at all
• Convertible handheld designi also wasn't a big fan of the included tools or the handheld vacuuming experience in general
• Runtime (Measured, Boost/Turbo)about four minutes on max power
• Runtime (Measured, Default)i would have liked to see a bit more than 20 minutes on standard power20 minutes on standard power is probably what you can actually expect in real world use
• Suction & Airflowit was significantly below average in airflow and with the unsealed suction test and it was exactly average in the sealed suction test basically the raw power specs weren't anything special with the omniglide
