Unlike most Dyson models, its latest hard floor cleaner doesn’t rely on suction. Instead, it uses hydration and a four-speed motorized brush bar — along with nylon bristles — to agitate tough stains and pet hair, allowing you to remove both without clogging the machine with gunk. An anti-tangle comb helps prevent unwanted wrapping, while the self-cleaning roller is continuously fed fresh water as you maneuver around your home. The added benefit of its lack of suction is that, theoretically, it should hold up better in the long term, as most vacuums see their performance decline after five years or so due to wear and tear.
Additionally, the Clean+Wash Hygiene comes with a hot-air drying dock that charges the cleaner and flushes the microfiber roller after each cycle, helping reduce bacterial growth and odors. It should last up to 45 minutes on a single charge — though we have yet to confirm the exact runtime — and the water tank is large enough to clean 3,767 square feet of floor before needing to be emptied. Thankfully, the latter isn’t all that difficult, given that it can be done in a single action in 20 seconds or so. Just don’t expect disposal to be as odorless as the dock itself, even if the water and debris are automatically separated.
