This is what just swayed me...got it last night, should I take it out of the box or return?

Can confirm dustbin is crazy small. I have a 500 sqft apartment with a dog and I have the empty it twice. Thinking about exchanging it for the v10 instead. I was more so excited about the wetmop attachment but that thing sucks

For me, with three long-haired cats, my Dyson stick saves my life. I got the one at Costco-V something. On full strength I use it on my few rugs , but I keep it on the middle strength for all my other floors. The battery life at full power is pretty short (20 mins) but at least 30-40 mins in the middle setting. I live on a single floor condo so it works perfectly for me.

I second the central vac. I just left mine behind when we moved house (I’ve had one in two of my homes) and I miss it so much. It was 20 years old and still going strong. I just bought a dyson at costco and after one week I already know it’s going back. Even on full charge at the highest suction the battery lasts 7 minutes!!! What the actual…who vacumes for 7 minutes? I hate it and can’t wait to get a new central vac installed in my new home.

Yep, can attest to this having had the V15 for a while (tried it before going for the Gen5) the difference even compared to the V10 is colossal. I’d be willing to say the V15 can, at times, be more powerful than the Gen5 under sustained load (boost) so the V15 is a no-brainer in this case. Also the V9 looks like a freak-of-nature money-grab.
