Editorial notes

Why it stands out

Why we like it

TechGearLab measured 74% on low pile and 64% on high pile. The high-pile figure beats the Gen5detect, V15 and V16. RTINGS scores its pet hair pickup 7.3, and Vacuum Wars ranks it second for pet hair.

Amazon sells it directly at a mid-range price.

What to know

Skip it if you want a removable brushroll or a turbo upholstery tool. The model may also be phasing out, so confirm stock.
