4 BEST Cordless Vacuums for Hard Floors (Over 30 Tested)

What We Loved

  • Battery runtime / Charging time
    it lasted more than 3 minutes longer than the Gen5 Detect in the lowest setting using the slim roller nozzle, and 80 minutes is more than enough even inside a large home
  • Cleaning performance on carpet
    cleaning performance was slightly better
  • Dust-bin sealing (to prevent dust escape)
    has a fully sealed dustbin that didn’t leak during the fog test
  • Laser dust illumination
    upgraded laser slim roller with the twice-as-bright green laser
  • Maneuverability & swivel steering
    best balance of run time, steering
  • Overall durability/longevity
    If you want to keep these vacuums long-term, I suggest factoring in parts availability, especially parts like the filter and battery, since these are the most likely components you’ll replace.
  • Price
    given the price difference, it offers better value
  • Versatility
    it offers the best balance

Buyer's Guide: Best Dyson Cordless Vacuums For 2025

What We Loved

  • Attachment variety & compatibility
    The V15 Detect Above Floor Tools...have the most
  • Battery runtime / Charging time
    Dyson has been accurate with its claimed figures, and with the newer models, these numbers have been underrated as real-world tests exceed these claims
  • Brush hair tangle resistance
    The torque screw tool is the first one I’ve tested, where hair doesn’t wrap on the brush, which is an issue for a standard non-tapered mini-turbo brush. It’s the best I’ve tested at long hair strands on upholstery.
  • Carpet deep clean performance
    The best performing options are strictly those with high airflow and the latest brush roll design with the combs, and notches wrapping around the brush. Models that have these features include the V15 Detect
  • Cleaning performance on hard floors
    the newer models like the...V15 Detect...were among the best options on hard floors
  • Laser dust illumination
    the laser slim roller has the green laser that accentuates dust particles better than any LED-equipped nozzle I’ve tested. Almost invisible dust particles pop when the green laser flashes, even surface imperfections!
  • User interface/display clarity
    the readout on the LCD display, showing how much of each debris size it picks up
  • Value-for-money
    the best value options are the Dyson V15 and V12 Detect, given their current price
