Dyson - 360 Vis Nav

I have three shorthair cats and live in an apartment that is mostly medium pile carpet. In my experience vacuums that have rollers with combination rubber and bristles do better at combing pet hair out of carpet fibers than ones with all rubber rollers. A lot of reviewers do pet hair tests by scattering small clumps or individual strands of hair on top of carpet and that's not the whole story in real life. The hairs work their way down into the carpet and it takes aggressive agitation and strong suction to get them out. If carpet performance is paramount, get the Dyson Visnav or if you don't mind used, the Roomba S9+. Older Roombas that bounce around randomly and have the dual rollers with a separate rubber and bristle roller are also great at carpet combing. I keep a 690 around just for that reason even though I also have had newer vac and mop combo robots.

I also own 3 and share the same thoughts. It’s absolutely amazing for hardwood floors too. Most other robot vacuums leave a layer of dust on the floors (verifiable with a V15 laser). The fluffy roller and suction of the Vis Nav is amazing.

Depending where you are and possibility to travel, I recently purchased a Dyson 360 Visnav for €700 (€1299 normal price) in Dyson Austria and am over the moon with it.

Mine is preparing me for parenthood because I am constantly running around pulling things out of its mouth and trying to prevent it from committing suicide Overall I love it though, anything to take a chore off your plate. I don't know if they're still on sale but I got the Dyson Visnav for half price on labor day, horrifically ugly little thing but muuuch better than the QUAISBOO WASHUDO generic Chinese Amazon slop ones I was using before

Dyson 360 vis nav

Yes. Great vacuum ability. Medium object avoidance. Noisy.

Same here. I have a Dyson animal that I use once a week. I run the self emptying shark matrix the days I don’t use the Dyson. I don’t have carpet though and that seems to help. When we had carpet it required more effort on my part.

If you’re just looking for a robot vacuum, the Dyson vis nav is the best you can get. It has some navigational quirks, but it’s clean up on carpet and hard floor is better than any of the Chinese machines - [Dyson visnav](https://amzn.to/3LQNHXt). It had a lot of problems in the beginning and that’s where the bad reviews come in, but because it’s been around for a while now it’s much more refined - it does still lack the auto empty dock, but will have better suction as I mentioned than anything else. If you’re looking for something more advanced and something that also mops, that really depends on your budget. You can get great options at 400 bucks or great options at 1100. Obviously seeing you want to stay under $1000 - the [dreame l50](https://amzn.to/44nDKaf) is what I currently own and like a lot. Of course it also has its quirks, but it seems to work really well for me. You could also jump down to lower end range of the l40 if you wanted to save some money.

The Cadillac Cimmaron of robo-vacs.

I also bought 2 on sale, and so far, so good. I'm definitely not a fan of the direction of robot vacuum evolution. I don't want a mop because I don't want a tank of dirty water festering in my house. I don't like the big ugly docking stations. If you have a decent vacuum you don't have to mop so much. Meanwhile, mop-less vacuums are only basic models with basic navigation. Buy a mop/vac and don't use the mop? Well, they don't vacuum so well. But clearly, I'm a minority so oh well... hopefully these vis navs will work a long time. Although, given the direction of Dyson, they'll probably turn off the cloud in a couple years and offer a discount on a crappy re-labled Roomba.

I have 2 dyson Vis nav’s. One works great the other stops mid run for no apparent reason. You can wash the filter and reuse it. I will say my old Dyson 360 heurist is still the best robot vacuum I’ve ever owned for carpet cleaning. I watched a review on vacuum wars and he scored it lower than the high end roombas on deep cleaning but my experience has been drastically different. It pulls more dirt out of my carpet on low power than any vacuum I’ve had including: Dyson Vis nav, Roomba s9, Roomba J7 and J9+ combo, dreame L10S ultra, Neato D10. The list goes on and on. I’ve tested and used so many I’ve lost count. I should start a review site of my own.

If you want a few hours to relax or do something else instead of vacuum your house then, YES, the robot vacuum is so worth it. Do your research and try them out to see which fits your needs best. I was skeptical at first with the whole idea of robot vacuum but since then I would rank it among with the dishwasher as the best things once can get as time saver. My current robot vacuum is the Dyson 360 Vis Nav and hasn’t used the upright or handheld Dyson since the arrived of the 360 Vis Nav. Kids like to watch the robot doing the vacuum as well.

Got the Dyson 360 last month and so far loving it. We have carpet throughout the house and Dyson 360 does a great job of vacuum. Haven’t used the upright Dyson since the arrival of the 360 Vis Nav. I run it every other days. Read many negative feedbacks and stories on the Vis Nav but that seems to be related to the old firmware.
