Dyson vacuum line had a new look scheduled for this year. Some vacuum cleaners have already arrived, for example Dyson PencilVac and Dyson Spot+Scrub robot vacuum cleanerbut others we were still waiting to see. That wait is over this month, as Dyson has finally dropped the rest of its long-awaited models.
Dyson now has three new cordless vacuums you can buy, plus one with a Submarine head option: Dyson V16 Piston Animal ($980) and Dyson V16 Piston Animal Submarine ($1,100), Dyson V10 Conical ($500)and Dyson V8 Cyclone ($400). In addition to other vacuum cleaners released by the brand this year, Dyson’s lineup is bigger than ever.
Here’s what makes each of the new models different, what’s ahead, and whether it’s time to start shopping new Dyson vacuum.

Dyson calls Piston Beast V16 ($980) its most powerful cordless vacuum cleaner. It has 315W of air suction power and the new 900W Dyson Hyperdymium motor. There’s a new cleaning head — the All Floor Cones Sense — with conical brushes that look a bit like the PencilVac Fluffycones, with a similar design and color scheme. The All Floor Cones Sense head also promises to detect changes in floor type and respond automatically (hence the “Sense”). It also comes with a Fluffy Optic cleaning head for hard floors, as seen on V15 Detect and Gen5detect.
The V16 Piston Animal also has a trash can that can compress dust and debris, allowing it to hold up to 30 days. It also has an emptying mechanism that allows you to push the debris out, making emptying easier. Dyson has promised a self-discharging docking station for this model, but it’s not yet available; Dyson says it will be available for purchase in the future.
There is also a The submarine variant that retails for $1,100. This version adds a wet roller head similar to the V15 Detect Submarine, but Dyson says this version has new hydration control technology for more targeted water use when cleaning and a boost mode when you’re dealing with stains.

The Dyson V10 Conical ($500) is Dyson’s first self-discharging vacuum, but the huge dock you sometimes see it photographed with—the self-emptying Dok, which will retail for $150—won’t be available until August.
