The Dyson Absolute V6 has almost everything you want in a vacuum -- except stamina.
There’s a lot to like about the Dyson V6 Absolute. It’s lightweight, easy to use, powerful, and versatile. With its myriad attachments, it can quickly tackle pretty much any job you throw at it, as long as you’re not asking it to clean the whole house....
Expert review by : Katie Pilkington Andrew Gebhart (cnet.com)
Complete with a reasonable new price, the Dyson v6 stands tall as one of the better stick vacs we've tested.
The Dyson v6 performs well and maneuvers easily, keeping up with more expensive Dyson stick vacs for less.
With only one attachment, the v6 is now feature-poor and loses to the cheaper Oreck Touch on pet hair and large particle performance.
The updated $300 price of the newly named v6 makes it stand out as one of the best stick vac buys we've tested.

Editors' Note, February 12, 2015: Dyson has rebranded the DC59 stick vacuum line , giving each model a new coat of paint and a new price. The DC59 Motorhead that was now forms the primary components of both the $400 Dyson v6 Motorhead and the $500...
The Dyson v6 Motorhead stick vacuum cleaner performed extremely well on both pet hair and fine particles. The design makes it portable, maneuverable, and generally easy to use.
The Motorhead is a marginal upgrade at best over its predecessor, the v6, and it performed worse with big particles. The motor in the brush roll results in relatively poor battery life. It still doesn't outperform the other sticks enough to justify its...
Dyson's v6 Motorhead competes well enough as a high-end stick vac, but poor battery life and a tendency to clog with large particles hold the v6 Motorhead back from replacing your full-size upright.

The Dyson V6 Absolute is a very popular stick vacuum at this time and we have also rated it the best "top-end" stick vacuum in 2016 (see our Best Stick Vacuums list). We have reviewed the vacuum in detail here - Dyson V6 Absolute Review - but thought...

In this review we take a look at the relatively new Dyson V6 Absolute cordless vacuum. The Absolute is Dyson's top-of-the-line cordless vacuum and consumer ratings are excellent. It differs from the other V6 machines in the tools/attachments that are...
- Lightweight ; - Easy to maneuver and get into tight places ; - Good on Carpet and Bare floors ; - Capable on pet hair ; - Fairly powerful for a stick vacuum ; - High powered handheld vacuum ; - Small footprint and can be hung on wall
- Expensive ; - Filter can sometimes fall out ; - Trigger must be depressed all the time (hard on finger) ; - Small dust canister needs frequent emptying

A handheld vacuum for efficient and convenient cleaning
Powerful ; Effective ; Can be used easily on a daily basis
Bin release a little awkward ; Powerful motor chews through juice quickly
Expert review by : Richard Stevenson (trustedreviews.com)
Building on the strengths of the main Dyson V6 handheld bagless vacuum unit, the V6 Absolute tops Dyson's cordless cleaner range with even better dust filtration and a raft of accessories to cover just about any vacuuming task.
Expert review by : Luke Johnson (trustedreviews.com)
There's a revolution going on and it's powered by batteries. Some of the best and most interesting vacuum cleaners in 2013 and 2014 have been cordless vacs. From the Gtech AirRam to the Bosch Athlet, lots of brands now have cordless vacuum cleaners...
Hugely versatile ; Cleaning as good as corded models ; Light and easy to handle one-handed
Small dust capacity
Expert review by : Richard Stevenson (trustedreviews.com)
Coming to market with arguably the best name to yet grace a cordless vacuum cleaner, Dyson's V6 Fluffy is the latest evolution of the British company's battery-powered design. Based on a new digital V6 motor that spins at an incredible 110,000 rpm, the...
Class-leading suction power ; Outstanding on hard floors ; Handheld and upright versatility ; Easy to use clips, bin and tools ; Handy wall dock charger ; Great on pet hair ; Easy on stairs
Single battery ; Edge cleaning not as good as corded machines ; Small bin
Expert review by (t3.com)
Does this multi-headed handheld suck in the good way or the bad way?
Well designed ; Great suction ; Easy to use
Doesn't suit larger homes ; Battery could last longer ; Quality costs
