Our Verdict

Dyson V15 Detect

Airsign HEPA Vacuum

The Airsign HEPA Vacuum and the Dyson V15 Detect are two very differently designed vacuums with varying uses. The Airsign is a better option for longer cleaning sessions because of its corded design, allowing you to run it indefinitely. Unlike the bagless Dyson, it uses biodegradable dirtbags to hold in debris, resulting in cleaner and less frequent dirt disposal but also higher recurring costs. The Dyson's cordless design allows you to carry it out wherever you may need it, and it does a better job of dealing with debris embedded in carpets.
