Dyson V6 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner [Energy Class A], 200 W

Product Information

The Dyson V6 doesn’t have an internal collar to push out clumps of dirt and hair. As a result, it’s common for some debris to remain inside the cylinder after emptying. The Dyson V6 has a “Max” fill line that’s less than halfway up the side of the cylinder. It’s important to empty your vacuum when dirt reaches this line, not when the cylinder is completely full. Newer Dyson cordless vacuums do have an internal collar to push out dirt. These aren’t perfect, but make the emptying process more hygienic. Can The Dyson V6 Bin Hold Liquids? Tip: If you need a larger Dyson cordless vacuum, then consider the Dyson V11 Outsize. It’s an expensive model, but it comes with a large dust bin and a wider floorhead. Do You Need To Pull Out Clumps By Hand When Emptying The V6? Congratulations, your Dyson V6 is now emptied and ready to use! How Much Dirt Can The Dyson V6 Hold?

This ensures your Dyson maintains its cleaning performance and reduces the chance of clogging. The downside is that you’ll need to empty the vacuum more frequently – but that’s a small price to pay to avoid overfilling. Step 2: Empty The V6 Bin Into an Outdoor Bin The actual process of emptying the Dyson V6 is simple: just hold the cylinder over a bin, then press the red catch to open the trap door. Give the vacuum a small shake to dislodge more dirt. If the bin needs to be cleaned, you can remove it from the vacuum by pressing the same catch a second time. Once removed, use a dry cloth to get rid of stubborn debris.The Dyson V6 might have been replaced by the V7, V8 and other more expensive Dyson cordless vacuums, but it’s still an excellent model. This is particularly important if anyone in the household suffers from allergies. Step 3: Remove Remaining Debris And Clean The Bin It’s also an easy vacuum to empty, as the V6 uses a simple trapdoor system to allow dirt to fall into an external bin. For this reason, it’s important to avoid the temptation of overfilling your Dyson V6. It can be frustrating to need to empty it so often, but overfilling will greatly reduce the vacuum cleaner’s performance.

Take a look, and you’ll think nothing had changed from its predecessor. Don’t take that as a negative, though: Mr Dyson is well-known for eye-catching, yet practical home appliances and the: “if it ‘ain’t broke don’t fix it” approach rings true here more than most. There’s that power trigger grip at the top end, along with the motor and battery just below. With that, and not with a simple one-button press, you’re only draining the battery as and when you need to, even if it is a touch sensitive.

An incredibly light cordless vacuum cleaner that's perfect at cleaning a wide variety of surfaces, from carpets to hard floors

However, we recommend emptying the vacuum into an outdoor bin. The Dyson V6 is a bagless vacuum, so dust and other allergens will escape into the air when you empty it. It’s best if these particles are released outdoors!
