Dyson V11 Review

As we mentioned, it’s compact and thin, so you probably won’t struggle with storing it away or using it to clean awkward, hard-to-reach areas.

It measures 50.6×9.8×10.3 inches in total while weighing some 6.68 pounds. These numbers show the cleaner is quite heavier and bigger than Dyson’s previous stick models.

While the dimensions don’t affect maneuverability in this case, the weight might be an issue depending on your needs and preference.

Once you register your purchase, the manufacturer covers the unit with a 2-year warranty. The unit is covered for parts and labor for two years from the date of purchase.

The deal doesn’t cover filters and other parts subject to normal wear and tear. It also doesn’t cover damage caused by misuse.

Dyson V11 Torque Drive e is a versatile unit, so it does a good job on all floor types. Some surfaces might be trickier to clean, but with its powerful suction and smart sensors, you shouldn’t have any significant issues.

Its Torque cleaner head is the primary cleaning head that does wonders on carpets. It has spiral bristles that go deep into carpets picking up even the tiniest and most persistent dirt.

Plus, the Dynamic Load Sensor changes its suction power as you go from deep-pile carpets to area rugs, so it doesn’t pull or push them around.

The Torque head is equally as useful on hardwood and other bare floors. It adapts to the level of the floor in order to pick up the dirt and dust efficiently.

Another useful tool is the stubborn dirt brush for bare floors. Dyson V11 Torque Drive has bristles that are slightly further apart and much firmer than the ones on the dusting brush. As such, the tool is ideal for scrubbing hard surfaces that aren’t as gentle as hardwood.

As we mentioned, Torque Drive is a bit top-heavy due to the fact that the motor is located at the handle. However, this might not be as big of a problem as the overall weight of the unit. Since it’s on a heavier side, you might struggle with using it for the full 60 minutes.

Things that make maneuverability simple are its low profile cleaner head and 2-in-1 design. The unit converts into a handheld for more comfortable use on hard-to-reach and above-floor surfaces.

The only maintenance it requires is regular filter cleaning. The filtration system is washable, so you’ll have to clean it at least every six months or even more frequently if you want to.

You’ll also have to empty the dust bin regularly and wash it occasionally. It’s up to you to decide how often this will be since it depends on how often you use the vacuum.

It’s important to note that the V11 shows regular filter maintenance reminders, blockage alerts, and troubleshooting solutions.

This one is acoustically engineered with the acoustic baffle built into the motor head. This eliminates unpleased tones and diverts direct sound making the unit much quieter to use.

Though you’ll definitely be able to hear it, the sound won’t disturb your household or your next-door neighbor’s peace.

While the actual run time varies depending on the power mode and attachment you use, you’ll get up to 60 minutes of powerful suction.

The unit comes with rechargeable 7-cell lithium-ion batteries that take some 4.5 hours to recharge. It also has a battery-saving trigger that ensures the power is only being used when you hold the trigger. The moment you let go of it, the unit shuts off saving the battery life.

Dyson V11 is a battery-operated and cordless vacuum. Since it doesn’t have a cable, it’s also easier to use and store away than its corded counterparts.

Though you won’t have to worry about changing sockets, you’ll have to keep in mind its batteries, and the time it takes for them to recharge.

This is a bagless unit that comes with a dust canister that’s under the handle. Its capacity is at about 0.76l, which is an average-sized cup compared to other Dyson units.

The dust cup empties at the bottom, which is quite simple to do. It doesn’t require any special maintenance, though it’s recommended you wash it now and then.

Dyson V11 features whole-machine filtration that captures up to 99.97% of microscopic particles as small as 0.3 microns.

It holds all the dust and allergens inside the unit, expelling only clean air through its exhaust system.

Most pets tend to make a mess whether its the thrown-around kitty litter, hairs or dirt coming from their muddy paws. If this is something you deal with daily, you should consider the V11.

Its Torque head is ideal for picking up both small and big pieces of litter. It does an equally great job on both carpets and bare floors as long as the litter is completely dry.

While the aforementioned Torque head does a great job on bare floors, you might also want to try the mini motorized tool for pet hair. It removes the stubborn hairs from both carpets and upholstery. Plus, you can use the unit as a handheld to regularly pick up the hairs from your furniture.

One of the best things about this cleaner is its intelligent system. The unit features an LCD screen that shows selected power mode, filter maintenance reminders, remaining run time, and blockage reports.
