Pros & cons

Dyson Omni-glide

  • Extremely lightweight and easy to maneuver one-handed
  • Omnidirectional head fits into gaps as small as 8 inches
  • Lies flat for cleaning fully under low furniture
  • Two power modes and quick handheld conversion for spot cleans
  • Cheapest full-size Dyson stick that's still current, not a legacy leftover
  • Not designed or marketed for carpet — hard floors and low-pile only
  • 20-minute max runtime is short even for a compact stick
  • 50ml dustbin needs emptying constantly on anything but a quick tidy
  • No published air-watts suction figure, only motor wattage

Levoit VortexIQ Pro Cordless Stick Vacuum

  • 110 AW suction is a real step up from the base VortexIQ's 80 AW
  • 60-minute runtime and an LED display for battery/power tracking
  • Included mini motorized brush attachment for upholstery and stairs
  • NeoSight LED still highlights dust on hard floors
  • 2-year warranty and VeSync app support
  • $299 puts it close to established competitors with longer track records
  • Not sold on Amazon — direct from Levoit only
  • No self-empty dock at this price, unlike some rivals
  • No noise rating published
  • Too new to the US market for independent long-term reliability data
