Dyson V11 Origin vs Dyson Gen5outsize Cordless Vacuum

The Gen5outsize is the stronger vacuum: more suction, a much bigger bin, a wider head, longer run time and a particle-counting LCD. The V11 Origin is lighter, simpler and easier to handle on stairs and in tight rooms. Owners rate both well, though the V11 has far more owner feedback behind its score. Buy the Gen5outsize for large carpeted homes with pets; buy the V11 Origin for smaller homes and mixed floors where weight matters.

• Choose the V11 Origin if you want a lighter stick vacuum for a smaller home, mixed hard floors and carpet, and you value simple handling over maximum power and run time.
• Choose the Gen5outsize if you have a large carpeted home, shedding pets and long cleaning sessions, and you want the biggest bin, widest head and longest run time Dyson offers.
