Interesting, although I'm not well read enough on robots to comment authoritatively; robots never really interested me.
Highly doubt it'd be the end of company.that's a huge shame @ robot, if the picea stuff is true, that thing looks terrible. their robot vacuums were never really their greatest products, but the one benefit they had over others is they genuinely vacuumed carpet well over the competition. this thing looks like it definitely won't do that, and just looks poor in general. if this seeps into their core vacuum lines that's basically the end of the company.
i basically meant the end of the company for me, sorry, should have clarified. i definitely won't be buying any products from them that are designed by a third party with the dyson name slapped on top. that's a disgrace. what's sad is, it's not just dyson either, both miele and sebo are going down this route as well. so there will be nowhere to turn to.Highly doubt it'd be the end of company.
Their hair care products are probably going to be their main thing.
There is plenty of R&D occurring. My channel even outlines some of it. And my V16 review will do what every other paltry source on the internet hasn't so far—namely discuss why the innovations are a step up in detail and how they work. Not sure what the plans for their robots are. Maybe they'll have different tiers or something; who knows. One that looks like all the other shit out there to appeal to the lowest common denominator who lack the IQ to distinguish quality from a dupe, and one that innovates.i basically meant the end of the company for me, sorry, should have clarified. i definitely won't be buying any products from them that are designed by a third party with the dyson name slapped on top. that's a disgrace.
Sharks? No?i basically meant the end of the company for me, sorry, should have clarified. i definitely won't be buying any products from them that are designed by a third party with the dyson name slapped on top. that's a disgrace. what's sad is, it's not just dyson either, both miele and sebo are going down this route as well. so there will be nowhere to turn to.
haSharks? No?
I hear they're soo much better than anything Dyson ever made
Their power detect apparently outcleans Gen5
Forget the Felix. It is all wrong IMHO. Awkward, top heavy, prone to tipping over using the hose, no onboard tool storage, no spotting wand, just one aggravation after another. If you want a vacuum set up like that with the motor in a body sitting on a single neck over a power nozzle buy a Lindhaus Valzer. Better in every possible way than the Felix.Excuse me but aren't you supposed to replace filters and brush roll on Sebo too? Plus hose that rips on Felix and deffo won't last few decades.
Not to mention that Felix or X series are soo noo user friendly. No wand on Felix, mediocre on hard floors unless you swap heads. X series has a wand but constantly spinning roller is a huge NO from me, plus hose retracts back into wand making it even harder to use than on upright Dysons.
Er, can you provide a simple link to this mystical literature that makes this claim and directly conflicts with their other literature saying it's a lifetime filter? There's nothing in the V16 manual about replacing it, which directly conficts with your statement.The HEPA filter has to be replaced periodically according to Dyson literature
I have to completely disagree with you on brush rolls.I'd love to know how many people who've tried and liked a cordless stick vac would ever go back to a mains machine. I haven't and never would.

You're peddling total nonsense. It's common knowledge that Dyson filters and brushrolls etc. are lifetime and never need replacing unless they have been abused and neglected. There are no running costs on their machines. Anyone who claims differently is required to provide convincing evidence...and not a dot has ever been provided when they've been challenged. That tells you all you need to know.
From experience I have some Bissell and European Electrolux products that make the claim that their HEPA exhaust filters are washable but they never really come clean using just fresh water and after less than six washings they're done. These are pleated cloth HEPA filters btw.
Yeah, maybe. it's fairly intuitive. As always, what's the point of cleaning if you don't do the job properly.I am not saying they re exactly the same, though I am saying they are similar. I think either dyson or the company making the robot maybe saw this idea and ran with it.
I mean, your own link just verified my point and refuted yours. They say nothing about replacing them and only mention additional filters to maintain usage whilst the other is drying if you've not figured out you can use a cool fan to speed up drying time. I'm confident that your claim was a falsehood after being given a chance to defend it and failing. This, I've noticed, is a running theme from much of your output, which reduces credibility for future factual claims. It simply verified this place is too much of an exclusive echo chamber, where too often, merely challenging factual claims (that are clearly falsehoods) results in hypersensitivity and aggressively defensive behaviour.
That's what I thought, but they again it's not getting released until 2026 so still some timeView attachment 169839
On a demo this basic, and controlled by dyson, they managed to tangle the robot vacuum. Seriously how did this product go past any manager and QA is beyond my comprehension.

Vacuum factsIt's surprising how few reviews there are out there of the V16. It really shows the US dominance to YT content. Given that almost all reviews out there are cosmetic or junk, it's also exposes where most of that rubbish comes from. Sadly, I won't be releasing my review for the V16 until all the major 'reviewers' have released their reviews, so Dyson's delay releasing this product to the US is a blow on that front. What I might do in the meantime though, is release some myth busting videos. Are there any demos or myths people want busting, like "it doesn't clean hard floors" etc. I want to check if the loss of carbon fibre bristles prevents fine dust removal. I've already confirmed it's the quietest machine they've ever produced, dispelling the myth it's loud.
ShatteredDon't know where they got laser not as powerful.
Sometimes people just like to moan and find things to moan about

Bullshit. Whoever speculated this failed to realise that the same (better) cyclones still exist downstream, so anything that gets through the primary separator still has to face the cyclones. There are some caveats to that as I'll cover in the review, but for REAL-WORLD usage (distinct from treating it like a garbage disposal unit like some clowns), the new separator and cyclone system performs at least as well and without key disadvantages. These people just don't understand it...and is why I'm waiting until all the 'big reviewers' have finished spouting their ignorant opinions before I release my review that evidences the facts.- Cyclonic system is flawed, lacks a main which may lead to reduced suction or increased filter cleaning.
BS (and no doubt unevidenced). A leaky filter system would mean the final seal leaks dust. There's no evidence of that.- Filter system leaks.
For the first time, I'm actually enjoying the laser. It's much more effective to me than the fluffy head lasers at highlighting dust and I can see why people like it. I still stand by all my previous comments; it doesn't add any meaningful practical value. But it definitely adds psychological value analogous to a clear bin.- Lasers are not as powerful.
This is true as I've already evidenced (and Frickhelm) and no one else to my knowledge, at least reputably. I assume the person who said this failed to evidence it or cite evidence. It's also something you can fix with a hack. It's an embarrassment to Dyson that a hack is needed, but they made a stupid mistake and should be called out hard for it.- Cleaning is not as good as previous models.
