We highlight what we don't like about the Dyson V15 Detect cordless vacuum, discussing run time tests, edge cleaning tests, vacuum weight, battery recharge times, and more. Also, see our "Dyson V15 Detect What We Love" video review:    • Dyson V15 Detect  What We Love

We start by showing the Dyson V6, V7, V8, V10, V11 and V15 and highlight the weight of each machine. In addition, we discuss the weight, size and overall bulk of the V15 handheld unit.

We like that the V15 has a "clickin" battery (a battery that can be popped off with the push of a button and simply clicked back into place). However the major advantage of such a feature is to allow you to get multiples of your run time by using more than one battery, but the V15 only comes with one battery.

When the battery is fully discharged you have to recharge it before you can continue vacuuming. But the V15 battery takes a full 4.5 hours to recharge so your vacuuming session can be significantly disrupted.

Since the days of the Dyson DC59 owners have been complaining about having to hold the power trigger to operate the vacuum. This continues with the V15. Some people find that this approach causes their finger to tire during long cleaning sessions.

We ran the unit through edge cleaning tests and found that it leaves some debris behind along the edge. In our estimation the V15 only has average edge cleaning. It does perform better edge cleaning with repeated passes however.

In boost power mode the vacuum has plenty of suction (230 Air Watts). We found that in boost power mode that powerful suction has a tendency to suck the high torque cleaning head down fairly hard on carpet making it something of a chore to move. It's ok for short periods but can get tiring (or annoying) for longer periods of time.

Surprisingly the V15 has shorter run times on carpet than we expected. The run times were shorter than those suggested by the manufacturer in ECO and AUTO mode.

Finally, the V15's both the V15 Detect and the V15 Detect+ are fairly expensive vacuum cleaners.
