Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The only handheld that doesn't lose suction.

'Dyson is all about developing new and better technology - and now Dyson's engineers have applied these principles to handhelds. Dyson Root 6 is the only handheld vacuum with powerful constant suction.' James Dyson. Other cordless handheld vacuums rely on filters to trap the dirt. These start to clog as soon as you start to pick up dust, causing loss of suction. A Dyson works differently - the dirt is spun from the air into the bin so the suction stays constant.

  • Twice the suction of others in use - Powerful constant suction
  • Root Cyclone technology - the most advanced Dyson cyclone technology
  • Up to 3x faster recharging - 21.6 volts lithium ion battery technology
  • Hygienic and quick to empty - one touch emptying - no need to touch the dirt
  • LED battery indicator - indicates battery charge levels and diagnostic status
  • No running costs - lifetime filters that never need replacing - just wash at least every 3 to 6 months
  • Lightweight and ergonomic - only 1.5kg with balanced weight distribution for easy handling
  • Durable tough construction - made from the strongest materials available to withstand bumps and bashes
  • Clear bin - tough polycarbonate lets you see how its working and when to empty
  • Combination accessory tool - debris nozzle converts to a brush tool for dusting
  • Large debris pick up - picks up crumbs and large particles
  • Crevice tool - extra tool for cleaning in tight gaps and awkward spaces
  • No extra costs - lifetime filters and no bags to buy
  • 2 year guarantee - fast service by Dyson

    Ask Dyson - we'll help you choose the right Dyson and give you any help you need when you're using it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars It's not 'bad', 14 Dec 2006
    By Mrs. E. Evans (Rainham, Kent United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: Dyson DC16 Handheld Vacuum Cleaner (Kitchen & Home)
    We purchased this little dyson for times when you have irritatingly small jobs that you need a hoover for, but don't feel like lugging the large hoover in and out of the cupboard.
    I have twin girls, so you can imagine the mess!

    If you are looking for a vacuum cleaner, and expecting the productivity of the larger corded types, then forget this little one. However, if like me, you need it for cleaning up the crumbs and clearing day to day mess, like kitchen worktops after cutting bread etc, then this little one is perfect.

    I think that many reviews I have read are from people who wanted a miniature dyson, which was pretty much the same as their large one, but in my opinion, dyson couldn't really have done much more when designing it. It is light (weighs less than 3lbs), it looks nice, it's not huge, so it'll fit in your kitchen cupboard, and it has an easy empty function which is great, one click of a button and the dust is in the bin with no mess.
    .
    Yes the battery is a bit pants, but if they had made it with a bigger battery, you would never have been able to pick the thing up! It would have made it extremely heavy and cumbersome. And after all, it was never intended to be a full sized vacuum, it's a glorified dustbuster, so you can't really complain. Also I do believe that with each subsequent charge, my dyson is eeking a little more power into the battery each time, bit like when you get a new mobile, they tell you it won't get up to full capacity until you've charged and fully discharged it a few times.

    I can do the stairs and around the edges of my hall and landing thoroughly before it runs out. Today for example I got about 8 minutes out of it, which was plenty for me to do those two jobs. It's IDEAL for the stairs in fact because I almost break my neck every time I try to hoover them lugging my cylinder dyson up and down them, teetering precariously on each step!

    All in all I am not too disappointed with my little dyson. I think the price could be a tad cheaper - say RRP of £.. instead of over £.., but when you think of the technology you're buying, it's not really so bad.

    5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, 20 Jun 2007
    By Nix75 (Kingswood, Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: Dyson DC16 Handheld Vacuum Cleaner (Kitchen & Home)
    I was a bit worried when I ordered the DC16 as the reviews of its battery life were appalling. However I haven't found this to be the case. I know that it is a bit expensive but it is excellent with no loss of suction, super cool design, and it is a Dyson after all. It is not intended for use to clean the whole house but to hoover up small messes at a time. As long as it is replaced on the charger after every use I have never had the battery die on me.
    It is so useful especially cleaning up after 2 children, who are forever leaving a trail of crumbs behind them!!
    Great little gadget, worth the money.

    5.0 out of 5 stars This product is equivalent to a dustbuster not a hoover, 11 July 2007
    By Dee Martin (Bromsgrove, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: Dyson DC16 Handheld Vacuum Cleaner (Kitchen & Home)
    I nearly didn't buy this Dyson cleaner having read the reviews but went ahead anway as I was looking for a product that had a better performance than the dustbusters I had used over the last 10 years.

    I have not been disappointed at all and in fact this cleaner has surpassed my expecatation.

    If you need an easy to use but powerful cleaner to clear up mealtime detritus, mud on stairs etc then this has a much better performance than the 3 different dustbusters I had over the years due to the power of the suction and the useability of the included adaptors. By implication you are generally not needing it for a 6min clean and I have not had any problems wtih the battery running out or time taken to recharge. It is robust - capable of withstanding my 3year old dropping it down the stairs and has become invaluable in a very short period of time.

    However if you are looking for a hoover equivalent, you will be disappointed as that is not the function this product was designed for.
