"Touted by Dyson as " the world's slimmest vacuum cleaner," the PencilVac fits all its components into its 1.5-inch-diameter handle, which runs the length of the vacuum. Packed in here are the electronics, the battery, the dustbin, and a tiny 28mm-diameter motor that spins at 140,000 RPM to generate 55 air watts of suction. This is the same motor as in Dyson's Supersonic R hair dryer, and the handle is the same width around, so you're basically using a reverse hair dryer to clean your floors."
"While I do not recommend buying this as a tool to clean your entire home (it doesn't clean carpets!), with its slim design and easy maneuverability, I've found it to be a great complement to a robot vacuum. The robot can do the hard work of vacuuming and mopping your floors, and this lightweight machine, which sits prettily in a magnetic charging dock, can be on hand for touch-ups and when it's time to tackle stairs and baseboards."
"As The Verge's resident robot vacuum reviewer, I don't have a lot of time (or space) in my life for stick vacs, and frankly, the ones I have used have largely disappointed me. Top-heavy, bulky, always getting clogged or running out of battery - they're so... manual. But then I met PencilVac Fluffycones, Dyson's new $599 cordless stick vacuum, and it was love at first lift."
PencilVac Fluffycones is a $599 cordless stick vacuum with a 1.5-inch-diameter handle housing electronics, battery, dustbin, and a 28mm motor. The motor spins at 140,000 RPM to produce 55 air watts of suction and is the same unit used in Dyson's Supersonic hair dryer. The vacuum weighs under four pounds and uses four caster rollers for multi-directional pivoting. Fluffy, cone-shaped rollers glide across floors and the unit nests in a magnetic charging dock. The design excels at quick touch-ups, stairs, and baseboards but is not suitable for cleaning carpets or whole-home vacuuming.
