> 3 dayMy V11 Torque Drive vacuum arrived without issues. I had no problems with the floor brush like some customers have experienced. PROS Appearance It looks nice with its metallic blue color. Plus because of its compact size, it isnt an eyesore if you have to store it in a visible location instead of a closet. LCD Display Its so great knowing how much power is left rather than having to guess how much time I can vacuum before the battery dies. The display also assist in troubleshooting issues like blockages or improper attachment of filter and accessories. Powerful cleaning This vacuum sucks in the good sense of the word. Sensible Accessories There is no unwieldy accordion hose in here. The set of included accessories are stuff I actually would want to use. Im more partial to the combination brush, the motorized brush for upholstery, and the crevice tool, but the whole accessory set seems well thought out. Easy to empty The dust bin is easy to empty, with only one caveat explained in the cons below. CONS Its Heavy! The V11 Torque looks more lightweight than it actually is. As someone with a medical condition, pushing the V11 around takes much more effort than I was hoping for. And the problem isnt resistance from the floor/carpet brush head. Even when used as a handheld vacuum, you will feel the weight. Trigger-happy This vacuum is operated with a trigger that you have to keep pressed for as long as youre using the vacuum. I wish there was a way to lock it in the on position. The trigger doesnt require much pressure to activate though, which is fine while youre vacuuming, but pure evil when youre emptying the dust bin. Long recharge time Battery life is okay for a cordless vacuum, but the 4.5 hours of charging time is too much. I wish this thing had a quick charger, especially considering the size of the power adapter. Speaking of which... What is it with Dyson and incredibly huge power adapters?! I have their hair dryer, the V11 Torque vacuum and the TP04 air purifier, and its like their engineering teams competed for who could get away with using the biggest power plug they could make. The AC adapter for the V11 Torque is not as huge and unwieldy as the power adapter for the TP04 purifier, but its still big and may fall off from outlets with weak grip or outlets mounted sideways. CONCLUSION Dyson products are typically regarded as pricey. Im not sure the V11 Torque is worth the asking price but unlike with their hair dryer, Im not ready to say this vacuum is overpriced. Im torn on whether or not to recommend the V11.

> 3 dayIt’s great for my small apartment because I can just pick it up, vacuum, empty the full cartridge from vacuuming one room, and hang it back up. I am actually vacuuming as much as I should be where before I was not. I will say my hands do cramp if I use it too long. While it isn’t a lot of pressure to keep it on, it does take pressure. If holding your hand around a cup so you don’t drop it is difficult, this will be, too. However, I like that it turns off immediately if I need it to. So it’s fine. I also need to be mindful of what part of my hand is pushing the vacuum forward. I can get sore thumbs if I push where my thumb connects to my hand. If I push with my thumb pad, it’s all good. Changing the vacuum parts is a bit awkward and heavy. However, if you struggle with holding heavy objects while having to push buttons and pull at the same time, I suggest laying it on a table and that is much more doable. I can do it without the table, but why wouldn’t I when it’s there to help? XD I’ve had this vacuum for quite some time now (not a full year) and am very glad I purchased this. Hope this lasts me a long time!

> 3 dayI actually LOVE vacuuming now. It’s so easy for quick spills or daily tidying. Plenty powerful and cordless to take upstairs, downstairs, and ON THE STAIRS. I do wish the next one will have a larger fill chamber. With two dogs, I have to empty twice, but it IS so quick to change out.

11-06-2025I named my Dyson Chewvacca because Its burly, meant to last, and a great addition to any spaceship. The only challenge Im having so far is that it takes an inordinate amount of time to charge as opposed to the runtime. From there another inconvenience would include its general weight and the fact that theres no trigger lock, so I know you only have to touch the trigger very lightly, but your inclination is to pull it down as hard as you can. Id say this is a safety feature that customers probably dont like but is likely necessary for its functionality.

> 3 dayThis is far superior than other brands I have tried! After a back injury, I have to have a lightweight vacuum. But other brands just didnt have the suction power, or the ease of use. I have two long-haired dogs, and this picks up fur easily... I use it on my carpets as well as my hard-wood floors. Separate brushes are perfect. Also, perfect attachments for use in my car or in tight places. Thanks so much for this great product. Ive recommended it to friends and family!

> 3 dayAfter much consideration and after reading and watching many reviews and demos, I pull the trigger on this Dyson V11 Torque Dr. a few months ago. Amazon allowed me to do the six payment plan which was very helpful. I also bought the extended warranty. In short it’s been super, I even vacuum my cat. Total game changer. Yes it’s plastic, but it works perfect every time every day, honestly it’s almost the perfect vacuum cleaner. Pros: It’s lightweight and cleans better than anything I’ve used before, easy to steer and handle, easy to empty, easy to swap out filters, comes with all necessary attachments, great customer service, I’ve called them twice with questions, quiet, pet hair friendly my cat even lets me vacuum her she loves it!, Almost 0 emissions, Great for catching in house rogue mosquitoes, holds a charge long enough for my needs. It’s quite literally the perfect vacuum cleaner. I mainly use the auto adjustment but have used ecco successfully and the almighty powerful boost mode which will drain the battery quickly but refurbish a rug back to its new luster. I have a house with predominantly floor tile and two large floor rugs also front and back door mats; roughly 1470 sq footage. Also low profile carpet in a refurbished 2 car garage. I can maintain the entire space and clean my cat twice a day and not run out of a charge. If I’m doing heavier cleaning I will run out eventually but it charges quick enough. It was one of my big concerns and I’ve only found myself twice wishing I had further charge. Cons: my only gripe is I’ve developed a callus on the inside top of my middle finger and the right side of my thumb. Itd be nice to see a more ergonomic grip redesign that also includes a trigger lock so you don’t have to constantly pull with your finger. I did purchase a small third party plastic device that acts as a trigger lock that works OK. I would add that anybody who has a physical impairment might be challenged to operate this vacuum cleaner. Not any more or less than any other standard Upright but it is something to consider. This being cordless would be a benefit that said. I highly recommend getting extra filters and changing your filter once every couple weeks even. I do not recommend waiting for the filter change icon to appear. I believe this will help the vacuum cleaner live longer. Dyson filters run $24 apiece, I ordered this third-party manufacturer filter and they work just as well https://www.amazon.com/Wolfish-Filters-Replacements-Cordless-970013-02/dp/B07V85J4SS ***Do not vacuum anything wet or any liquids; it will mess up the motor, also nothing fine like ash. I read other reviews were people have learned this the hard way. I’ve had good luck with cat hair and cat dander. It’s so awesome I can vacuum my cat!

> 3 dayI replaced my old upright Dyson with this vacuum and was amazed at how fast the canister filled up- ok, part of the reason is that it’s a pretty small canister, but it’s super easy to empty so that’s NBD. But I had vacuumed my rooms just a few days prior with my old vacuum and the first pass through the room I had to empty the canister Twice! It is so lightweight and makes a cute little ‘thoonk’ sound when you release the trigger you might find yourself looking for excuses to clean.. I know that sounds sales-pitch-y but I’m a procrastinator and now I notice that I use the Dyson as the excuse to not do other things instead of the other way around. It’s kinda weird! The accessories are good, especially the smaller motorized head, and so far the ‘no tangle’ claim has been accurate on both motorized options. And even at 5’6” I’ve been able to reach most cobwebs in the corners of the high ceilings. (I’m trying to convince my mother to let me buy one for her, she’s older, and I think this would be perfect for her -and her pets too!)

> 3 dayWe had Dyson corded yellow ball vacuum for more than 15 years. It is powerful, sturdy and effective for carpet cleaning. Drawback is also obvious, it is big, heavy, and has long cord to deal with. We also have Milwaukee M18 vacuum, which has really powerful suction but extremely loud. They both show their age compared to this latest battery powered V11 design. The weight and balance of V11 torque drive is perfect. It is much nimble and maneuverable than Dyson ball, also much quieter than Milwaukee M18 vacuum. It is lighter than either and I can clean up all three floors using V11 without feeling much of strain on my arm. Shorter brush head enables cleaning narrower places such as area under the seats, furnitures, corners, etc. The rotating brush is gentle to the hardwood floor. The Dyson ball also has rotating brush but I usually hesitate to turn it on when cleaning the hardwood floor, thinking its brutal power may cause damage. V11 seems to handle the hardwood without any issue. when on carpet it will automatically rev up and can also do a good job cleaning it. When use other heads for suction only, it is obvious that V11 has compromised on suction power compared to corded Dyson and Milwaukee M18 vacuum. For cleaning car seats and carpets I will still grab Milwaukee. But if I want to dust off my records and CD / SACD collections, the gentle touch of V11 is well appreciated. In terms of battery life, we can clean up the whole house, 1st, 2nd floors and basement (hardwood and laminated floors) with one charge. If we still have large area of carpets V11s battery life will likely be shorter, since its brush will rev at noticably higher RPM when it senses higher resistance on carpet. For our user case, this is perfect vacuum. Its light weight, ergonomics, shorter brush head, decent battery life make it constantly be grabbed for use at home. We cannot say the same for corded Dyson or Milwaukee M18. It is a true enabler for frequent daily cleaning. Very happy about this modern vacuum! Update: after 6 months of everyday use, Vacuum stuck turned-on while trigger not pressed. I noticed there is gap between handle and battery pack in the rear, and battery can be pushed up to close the gap and trigger will function fine. Removed three screws and take out the battery from handle, the trigger has linkage that will push down on a button located on the battery. the weight of battery is being supported by single small diameter screw (M3?) inside the handle that mount the trigger assembly (that the battery is attached to), apparently the handles plastic boss cannot take that constant pulling and the thread got stripped eventually. When battery is misplaced it will somehow being turned-on by itself. I added thread locker to the boss and temporarily fixed the issue, however, after a few weeks it became loose again. A larger size screw or molded metal thread insert should be used to support battery weight and constant pulling during the use. There are a lot of creative design ideas in this vacuum but this mechanical aspect presented some opportunity to improve for better robustness. I will try to use epoxy to permanently secure the screw in its boss and see if helps. I hope the later version with removable battery design will not have this issue.
