The Dyson V6 Absolute is cordless, lightweight, powerful, easy to use, and comes with tons of attachments. If only it could clean my whole house without the battery dying.

As usual, Dyson produced a competent product that costs too much. At $600, the Absolute isn't worth the upgrade over the Linx or even over other Dyson sticks.

Dyson's v6 Motorhead competes well enough as a high-end stick vac, but poor battery life and a tendency to clog with large particles hold the v6 Motorhead back from replacing your full-size upright.
