This is my first deal post, so please be gentle. Smilie

The Dyson Omni-Glide is being offered at Walmart for $249.99.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Dyson-...hbdg=L1600

It comes with a few extra tools. I bought mine at QVC for around $300 a month or so ago and am quite pleased with it. If anyone has any questions about how it fits in with the rest of the Dyson ecosystem, I'm happy to answer questions to the extent that I know about them.

Note that this model is mostly for hard floors (although it does have a mini-floor tool with a powered brush roll). The tools are compatible with the Dyson Micro, I believe, but they are not compatible with the Dyson v7, v8, etc., even though their attachment mechanisms look similar.

To be honest, it's suction power is quite small compared to the V-series vacuums. That having been said, it is about a pound lighter than the lightest V-series (with the exception of the Dyson Digital Slim, which isn't available in the US yet).

I'm trying to gather the information for the sake of comparison but for some reason I'm having trouble accessing parts of Dyson's web site. Here are some approximate figures:

Dyson Omniglide:

Weight: 4.25 pounds
Air suction power: 50 AW
Run-time: 20 minutes

Dyson v7:

Weight: 5.45 pounds fully assembled
Air suction power: 100 AW
Run time in normal mode: 30 minutes

Dyson v8:

The Dyson v8 OLD model is I think about 5.8 pounds. They released a new model recently with a hair-filtering motorhead brush that is about 5.5 pounds if I remember correctly.
Weight: ~5.5 pounds
Air suction power: 110 AW (approximated, I'm not sure)
Run time: The old v8 ran for at least 40 minutes in normal mode. However, reviews tended to favor the v7's performance in tests for reasons that were never clear to me. I don't know if this was improved with the new v8.

Dyson v12 Slim:

Weight: 5.2 pounds
Air Suction: 150 AW
Run-time: 60 minutes

The Dyson v12 Slim is the new hotness. It has a laser cleaner head and I would love to have one. It's priced at about $650 which is a lot but reasonable compared to the Dyson v15.

None of these models is going to be a great replacement for a corded vacuum--the dust bins are too small. If you want a cordless replacement for a full-fledged vacuum, then you should look at the Dyson Outsize models (which have an outsized price tag to boot lol).

The Dyson Omni-Glide's claim to fame is its dual brush swiveling fuzzy roller head. This thing is two fuzzy brush rolls that spin in opposite directions, which feed dirt and crumbs on hard floords into the vacuum's maw. These cleaning heads are mounted in an assembly on ball bearings, and using it is just plain fun. I know it sounds a little gimmicky--I would just watch a video and see if you like the way it maneuvers.

It doesn't need a lot of suction to do its job. It also features some of the latest features of the newest Dyson models--no trigger to push to run the vacuum, a replaceable battery, and an in-line dust bin (though whether this is good or not is debatable).

The dust bin is a little easier to fully remove from the motor.

It also has a charging cradle that doesn't need to be mounted to charge the main unit. It is a little cradle that can rest on a table and you can place the unit (or even just the battery, or an extra battery) on the unit to charge.

Who should buy this? Honestly, probably someone with almost entirely hard flooring, someone that already has another Dyson (if they like using it for more serious vacuuming), or someone who already has a full-fledged corded vacuum.

What I can say is that it's a pleasure to use and I'm really enjoying it. This is a good price, and you can think of it as a very sleek, sexy dust buster with some upholstery tools to boot.

I hope that helps. If you have any other questions, ask away. I only have a Dyson v7 and I'm not that interested in the heavier models but I've been researching Dyson a lot over the past 6 months or so. I'd love to help anyone who thinks they may enjoy using a Dyson pick the right one and get a good deal on it. My knowledge of other vacuums is limited, but I've done enough researching that I could probably tell you if you might not like a Dyson. It's really about having fun doing some light vacuuming though.

By the way, if it's OK I'd like to rep the web site Modern Castle. I learned a lot of info from the guy that runs that site, and he's very helpful. He has loads of Dyson reviews. There are likely better Dyson resources out there, but a lot of them are coming from the perspective of the UK market and reference a lot of legacy machines and/or machines that are not (and may never be) made available in the US.
I trust rtings for TVs but for this, I prefer Vacuum Wars on YouTube. This Omni glide was never meant to clean pet hair off of a sofa (and rtings tested without the brushed attachment).

Overall I think the rtings doesn't know how to really test vacuums. From all I could find, this excels at what it is intended for. Very quick and easy cleaning of hardwood floors.

Mine just arrived too…and I'm at the point in adulthood where I'm impatiently waiting for it to charge so I can take it for a spin.

I had all the Dyson models from the V8 my least favorite, My V6 so much better job than the VA but they be at being said the V 10 and the V 11 are both much better if that's what you need however I love my Omni glide and would never give it up for a V-8.

Could someone provide some guidance. I currently have a V10 (power head only) and have all tile floors with lots of pet hair. Would the V10 fluffy head or Omniglide be a better buy? We have 2 cats and just got a large dog, and need a more efficient and effective device for dealing with the pet hair.

Have a roborock for scheduled robot cleaning. Would this work for quick clean ups?

Personally I would skip V8 Honestly I have a V6 and it was better than the VA and then I went to the 10 and also the 11 I would go straight to the 10 if I were you it is so much better than the eight

Yeah, I kinda don't like the v8 because I feel like it's being "put over" on the v7 in order to make the newer models look better. The v8 seems less than the sum of its parts. It feels like it wasn't designed organically, unlike the v7 or Omniglide etc. It's just an awkward entry trying to fill a gap in Dyson's entry-level lineup.

I've never owned one so I'll defer to your expertise but I can understand if someone is hard up for cash buying a v8.

This was a deal a couple days ago mine will arrive tomorrow I've had one before and yes it's pretty good but it's not for carpet and not for any type of other area rugs it works good for what it does the only problem is if the battery goes bad you got a $200 battery are looking at
Cool, congrats on the purchase. Yeah, a replacement battery for these is very expensive. I love that you can swap the batteries out easily though (and even detach them from the motor assembly for charging, although I haven't tried that yet).

Assuming that the Omniglide is a reasonably successful product for Dyson, there will hopefully be after-market batteries made available that will be more reasonably priced than the ones from Dyson.

Just out of curiosity, when you said that you have had one before, what happened to that one? Did it break, or did you sell the unit, or something else? The design of this model looks more interchangeable than, say, the v7, so I'm hoping I will be able to use it for a few years to come.

Oh, by the way, I see that the newer "fluffy" Dyson heads are designed to be washed by the user (at least, that's what they claim). Have you given that a try? I'm curious how effective that will be, because the old Dyson fluffy heads have a sort of velvet-like texture that doesn't seem like it would hold up well to getting wet. Thanks.

This would work great for quick clean-ups. In fact, while officially it's not for use on carpets, I can say that I have personally used even the dual-roller head to pick up very surface-level debris on carpets. There is also a mini-brush that is designed for use on upholstery. Just have realistic expectations about performance as this unit is not designed to really extract dirt out of carpets. I think I used it a little to pick up some styrofoam crumbs that had scattered on the rug in my bedroom.

In general, I think the whole idea behind these cordless vacs is to use them for quick clean-ups. They're not going to be strong enough to suck all the sand out of the bottom of a carpet, but it's easy to take care of crumbs and things with a lightweight cordless before they get walked on for weeks and break down into smaller pieces of dirt.

One thing that would make cordless vacs better for this purpose is if they stood upright on their own. It can be a little awkward mounting the docking stations that they come with (or making space on a table to keep the motor charged).

By the way, Dyson does make a dock for the Omniglide (which it didn't for, say, the v7 or v8, though after-market docks are available). It is very expensive (something like $150), and I don't own one, but it does look nice.

I recently found out about a new cordless upright vacuum called the Lupe that is supposedly designed by ex-Dyson engineers. It looks like a neat form factor, but it is expensive, is a relatively new product, and distribution within the US is only just getting underway. I will be following the Lupe product line and I hope the company supports it will and iteratively improves it in forthcoming models.

How do you like the Roborock? My family has a cheap eufy robot vacuum, but I haven't really tried it out, because the roller bar is tangled, and I haven't gotten around to removing it so that I can clean it. How easy is it to maintain the robo vac model that you have? Thanks.

Yes this is my second one I had bought it at full price at 499, at a Best Buy unfortunately I needed a little motorhead piece for my bed I have a cat and he gets litter in my bed it drives me crazy so I found a better solution and returned it and said that if it ever went down to a decent price I would purchase again which I just did I am also hoping that they market the battery if not I will have to get it exchanged before my two year warranty is up. I really never had a problem with a Dyson battery and yes I've use the fluffy heads many times before my V 10 had one and it was amazing but this is even better because of the dual heads it seems like it picks up litter extremely easy I have a large white Maine coon and he loves to kick up the litter in his box I always have to go around the outside of his box so I can keep it clean . I'm hoping for an aftermarket battery as well but I'm happy getting the unit at this price point
