RTINGS review: Dyson PencilVac Fluffycones fails on carpets

Testing lab RTINGS published its full review of the Dyson PencilVac Fluffycones cordless vacuum, now priced at $443. The 38mm-body machine with a 140,000 RPM Hyperdymium motor excels on hard floors but scores near zero on carpet.

• 38mm body, 28mm motor, 1.8 kg weight, just 75ml bin
• Up to 30 minutes in Eco mode, about 9 minutes at max power
• Fluffycones conical brushes genuinely prevent hair tangling
• Price cut to $443 from an original $599
