Agreed. Recently bought a handheld vacuum cleaner. Wirecutter had some recommendations and said the Dyson one was “the strongest” (also most expensive), I got the Dyson and hated it (very cumbersome, heavy, short battery duration, not that easy to clean). Ended up returning it and got a random one at a local store instead. The random one was $50 (instead of $250-400 for the Dyson), has same or better suction, way easier to use and the battery lasts about 50-100% longer per charge (7-10 min instead of 4-5 min for the Dyson).
Similar thing happened with another appliance. Wirecutter is not very reliable.
- nanidin 6y agoAre you sure the Dyson you bought was real? I have owned a Dyson stick vacuum for over 5 years and it still runs for ~15 minutes on a charge. The newer versions of the same vacuum sold at Costco are advertised to run for up to 40 minutes. That said, I switched to a Roborock S5 Max around March of last year and I have only used the Dyson once or twice since then.
- paxys 6y agoI have used maybe a dozen vacuum cleaners over the last 10 years and nothing has come close to a Dyson coordless. I'd describe it as the exact opposite of "very cumbersome, heavy, short battery duration, not that easy to clean".
