In our Dyson V12 Detect Slim review, we described the four-star vacuum as "powerful, tech-packed, and underrated." With its iconic design, excellent engineering, and robust build quality, it's classic Dyson. It might cost a little more than a competitor's version, but it pays off in the long run.

Its standout features include automatic suction adjustment, a laser to highlight dirt, and its ability to pick up dirt on hard floors. For such a light and simple vacuum, it's amazing how much Dyson has packed into it.

It's worth noting that this Slim model is best suited to smaller homes. If you have a larger house or pets that shed a lot of hair, then you'll be frustrated by how often you need to empty it. If not, you won't be disappointed by either its performance or its capacity.

If having a no-cable vacuum is non-negotiable, then our best cordless stick vacuums guide will give you a full rundown of all the best options at the moment. And if you're set on Dyson as the brand, our best Dyson vacuum guide should be your next port of call.
