Our take on the Dyson V15 Detect Absolute Vacuum
The Dyson V15 Detect Absolute is a cordless stick vacuum built around a laser that reveals fine dust on hard floors and a piezo sensor that counts particles and raises suction automatically when it detects more. Its LCD screen shows particle counts and a bar graph, and it runs up to about 60 minutes in Eco mode with the non-motorized tools. It suits owners of mixed hard floor and carpet homes who want strong suction and cleaning feedback, but it is heavier and bulkier than the lightest sticks and its run time drops sharply in Boost mode. Against the V12 and V8 it adds the laser and particle sensing; against the Gen5detect it gives up some suction and the newer dusting system.

- WeightCriticisedMany find it tiring to lift overhead or carry up stairs.
Questions and answers
- How does the laser help?
- A green laser in the fluffy head lights up fine dust on hard floors so you can see what you missed. It has no effect on carpet.
- How long does the battery last?
- Dyson rates it at up to about 60 minutes in Eco mode with non-motorized tools. Heavily soiled floors trigger higher suction and cut that time.
- What is in the box?
- The Absolute kit includes the Laser Slim Fluffy head, a motorized carpet head, a combination tool, a crevice tool, a mini motorized tool and a wall dock.
- Is it good on carpet?
- Yes. The motorized head digs into pile and the sensor raises suction when it detects more debris, though the laser only matters on hard floors.
- How does it compare with the V12 Detect Slim?
- The V15 has a larger bin and more suction; the V12 is lighter and easier to handle overhead. Both share the laser and particle sensing.
- Can it be used as a handheld?
- Yes. The wand and heads detach so the motor body works as a handheld for stairs, cars and upholstery.
