Pros & cons
Dyson Gen5detect
- ✓280AW Boost suction is the highest of any US cordless stick
- ✓Whole-machine HEPA sealing captures 99.99% of particles down to 0.1 microns
- ✓Single-press power button — no more holding a trigger for the whole clean
- ✓Laser dust illumination plus piezo particle counter that auto-boosts on dirty patches
- ✓70-minute max runtime, the longest of Dyson's mainline sticks
- ✓Built-in crevice tool stows inside the wand
- ✗At 7.6 lbs it's noticeably heavy for above-floor and stair cleaning
- ✗Expensive even on sale — reviewers call the gains over the V15 marginal
- ✗70-minute figure is Eco mode only; Auto on carpet drains much faster
- ✗4.5-hour charge time is long for a flagship
- ✗No app connectivity or smart features beyond the onboard LCD
Samsung Jet Stick 85S
- ✓250 Air Watts, a meaningful step up from the 75's 200 AW
- ✓HEPA Filtration System - explicitly claimed, not just implied
- ✓Jet Dual+ brush is purpose-built as an anti-tangle design for pet/long hair
- ✓Removable, longer-lasting battery for a full 60-minute runtime
- ✓Lightweight design keeps overhead cleaning manageable
- ✗No self-empty station or clean dock at this price - competitors offer docks near this tier
- ✗No app control or smart diagnostics
- ✗No published weight or dimensions
- ✗Meaningfully pricier than the Jet 75 for what's mainly a brush and filtration upgrade
- ✗No published dustbin capacity
