Thought I ordered the outsize , but mistakenly ordered the detect.
There are too many different models to choose from.
I wanted the biggest, most powerful vac and wanted to get the same model I had ordered several times before. Just too old and make mistakes daily.
Not the fault of Dyson, that I hit the wrong button.

Underwhelmed with Dyson Gen5 absaloute
I was quite eager to try out.my new Duson gen5 absaloute but was DOA.
I returned to the.store of purchase and happily had a replacement.
After 4 uses the green light.is dull and sometimes only an inch from the side not much use really. So very dissapointed.

Easily the top vac for power and suction, hands down will pick up more simply for that fact alone. ALSO its non illuminated beater bar creates a superior seal between it and the floor no matter the floor type, hardwood being best suited but not limited to.

Thank you for your detailed review. We are glad to hear that the vacuum's powerful suction and non-illuminated beater bar have delivered excellent results, especially on hardwood floors. Your insight about the green laser feature is valued—even if it's not essential for your routine, it's helpful to know it’s not required for standout performance. It means a lot that, having tried many vacuums, you consider this the best for its cleaning capability. If you have any questions or need support in the future, please feel free to reach out to our chat or voice support team. We are always ready to help.
