Dyson has introduced the PencilVac cordless vacuum cleaner. True to its name, this model is notably slim, and Dyson proudly claims it to be the slimmest vacuum cleaner globally. Standing at 1.16 m (about 3.8 ft) tall, it measures 38 mm (approximately 1.5 inches) in thickness without the brush head. Additionally, it is quite lightweight, coming in at under 1.8 kg (around 4.0 lbs).
Innovative Design Features
The PencilVac’s compact design is partly due to the Dyson Hyperdymium 140k motor, which is just 28 mm (about 1.1 inches) wide and spins up to 140,000 times per minute, providing as much as 55 AW suction power. Dyson claims that its new dust separation system, which is 22 mm (roughly 0.9 inches) thick, can capture 99.99% of particles that are as small as 0.3 microns (0.0003 mm). Additionally, a dust compression system is included to optimize the capacity of its 0.08L dustbin.
Efficient Cleaning Performance
Equipped with the Fluffycones brush head, the vacuum is designed for thorough cleaning while also preventing hair from tangling. It features four conical rollers and allows two-way cleaning. Moreover, the brush head, which is 94 mm (around 3.7 inches) tall, can effortlessly glide under furniture and is fitted with green LEDs to illuminate dirt on the floor.
Smart Connectivity and Usage
Users can link the PencilVac to the MyDyson app, which provides updates on the battery and filter status. The vacuum comes with a magnetic docking station, which can store the vacuum’s attachments and an extra battery pack. Dyson anticipates that the PencilVac can operate for up to 30 minutes in Eco mode. An integrated display on the vacuum shows both the remaining battery life and the selected cleaning modes.
The Dyson PencilVac is set to launch in Australia and some European nations, including Spain, in the next few months, but a specific release date and pricing details are still pending. Customers in the US and UK will need to hold on a bit longer, as the product is expected to arrive in these markets by 2026.
