Vacuum Cleaner Review: I Found the Emptying Mechanism of the Dyson PencilVac to Be Impressive
In a groundbreaking move, Dyson has announced the Dyson PencilVac, their slimmest cordless vacuum cleaner to date. Scheduled to officially launch in 2026, this innovative device promises to revolutionize home cleaning with its compact design, powerful motor, and advanced cleaning technology.
Measuring a mere 38mm in diameter, the Dyson PencilVac is the world's skinniest vacuum, making it incredibly easy to manoeuvre around tight spaces and under furniture. Weighing under 4 lbs (1.8 kg), it is lightweight and portable, ensuring effortless handling for users.
The heart of the Dyson PencilVac is its new redesigned Dyson Hyperdymium 140k motor, the brand's fastest vacuum motor yet. This power-dense motor delivers up to 14,000 RPM of suction power, ensuring a strong cleaning performance despite its compact size.
Designed primarily for hard floors, the Dyson PencilVac comes with a special Fluffy cleaner head that is soft and won’t damage delicate floors. This head is also equipped with a laser to reveal hidden dust for thorough cleaning. The vacuum includes a hair screw tool specifically for removing ground-in hair and features sensors that detect microscopic particles and automatically increase suction power as needed, enhancing cleaning efficiency.
The battery life is impressive, capable of nearly an hour of cleaning in eco mode without power loss. The bin has a dust compression system which uses air to squash dust and dirt to maximise the bin's space. The conical brush head ejects hair and other debris to prevent tangling, ensuring the vacuum maintains optimal performance.
The head of the Dyson PencilVac swivels every which way and has lights from all angles to illuminate the floor, making it easy to see and clean even in dark corners. The vacuum can be emptied like a syringe, allowing for easier emptying and less mess.
While pricing for the Dyson PencilVac is still under wraps, it is expected to cater to smaller homes and flats, making it an attractive option for those seeking a high-performing, compact vacuum. With its slim diameter, featherweight design, and cleaning tech that aligns with Dyson's high standards for performance, the Dyson PencilVac could be a game-changer in the world of home cleaning.
