Dyson Nautik wet-dry brush

We will begin the analysis in detail with the most distinctive feature of this machine, which makes it "submarine" and allows us to obtain a more complete and versatile cleaning, the Nautik head.

The Nautik is a head that integrates a scrubbing system, what includes:

How the Dyson Nautik head works

The head has a red button that is used to remove the removable box, which includes the clean water tank and the tray where the dirty water will be deposited with the solid remains that are collected.

Once extracted, We remove the cap from the clean water tank and proceed to fill it up to the Max mark.; We cover it and slide the removable box again until we hear a click.

We put the head on the vacuum cleaner, and it will automatically be recognized by it, which will be reflected on the screen, which will display a drop to indicate that it is in wet mode, and the percentage of autonomy remaining. We can now start cleaning with it, in a process that only takes a few seconds.

The Nautik head of the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine has 8 dosing points, which moisten the roller slightly and continuously., with a rate of 18 milliliters of water per minute; In this way, the exact amount is achieved to achieve a good scrubbing, but without over-wetting so that there are no puddles on the floor and it dries quickly.

Thanks to the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine, you solve a wide variety of "problems" that arise in the daily life of a home, in a comfortable and effective way, with a single device.

With this device, you can clean stains, even dried ones, sauces, juices, coffee, milk, baby food, fruit remains, crumbs, fingerprints, coffee powder, flour, etc., obtaining great versatility.

By doing it with a single machine, you save a lot of work in certain situations and gain not only comfort, but also space in your home.. Furthermore, thanks to its design and way of working, absorbing and extracting at the same time, it does not leave marks and streaks like other systems, achieving a clean and shiny finish.

When mopping you can use only water, or add a small amount of floor cleaner., according to the doses recommended by the manufacturer; using, of course, a product that does not foam or is corrosive (that does not contain bleach, nor is it "Fairy type"), a common floor scrubber.

Based on its tests, the brand estimates that the tank capacity of the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine is enough to scrub up to 110 m.². Given the comfort with which it is handled, We estimate that it allows cleaning about 4-5 m² per minute, which would give us between 70 and 80 m to scrub.² (depending on task conditions, obstacles, etc.). In any case, quite notable figures, which in most cases will be more than enough.

If it is not enough, you simply have to refill the clean water tank and empty the dirt tank., rinsing it a little if you wish; Reinsert the removable box, as explained above, and continue with the task.

The brush can be simply washed with water, or use a little soap or some disinfectant product.

Dyson V15s super vacuum cleaner

With the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine you also have a super vacuum cleaner for cleaning your home and your vehicle, with a very high level of performance and super complete equipment.

Suction power

Its powerful Hyperdymium motor spins at 125.000 revolutions per minute (more than 2.000 times per second!) to deliver a exceptional suction power, which allows it to capture all types of particles with high effectiveness.

The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine reaches 240 aW, an absorption capacity above that offered by corded vacuum cleaners, thanks to which it does a fantastic job in any circumstance.

The broom has 3 power modes:

The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine with a piezoelectric sensor that counts the number of dust particles passing through the inlet 15.000 times per second; Thanks to its powerful processing capacity, it transforms this information into an order to automatically adjust the power to the level of dust detected.

Its color screen shows the scientific cleanliness test, offering this information in colored bars, grouped by particle size (from allergens up to 10 microns to particles larger than 500 microns), so that we "see" the work the machine is doing.

In addition, its Radial Root Cyclone technology integrates 14 cyclones that generate centrifugal forces of 100.000 g, effectively separating particles from the air flow, which is why it performs an important part of the filtering process and allows the absorption capacity to be maintained as the tank is filled.

Vacuum heads

In addition to the Nautik scrubbing head, reviewed above, the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine includes two very interesting heads for vacuuming floors:

With the Fluffy Optic head, dust that otherwise remains invisible is perceived, a almost magical effect that makes cleaning much more fun and motivates us to finish it, a playful touch that children also appreciate, for whom cleaning will seem like a game.

This soft brush is perfect for cleaning all types of hard floors: parquet, flooring, tile, porcelain, synthetic, vinyl, etc. Its combination of soft fibers and carbon fiber filaments traps dust and fine dust very effectively.

The Motorbar brush features thousands of nylon fibers that penetrate carpets to loosen dirt that hides between the fibers, obtaining exceptional cleaning.

Furthermore, thanks to the design of the roller itself and the comb with polycarbonate teeth, avoids the dreaded tangles, increasing its efficiency and minimizing maintenance work.

Accessories

The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine also has a complete set of accessories, with which we can effectively and comfortably clean any corner of the house and car, composed of:

The mini brush is very practical when cleaning sofas, armchairs, mattresses, cushions, pillows and other upholstered surfaces (such as vehicle seats), resulting especially interesting in homes with pets and/or small children.

Deposit and filtering

The tank of the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine offers a good capacity, 760 milliliters, above average, and enough to completely clean a home, even more than once; Its emptying is extremely simple, thanks to the ejection mechanism created by the brand., which pushes dust and debris in a single action, without the need for contact with dirt.

The filtering system is another of the outstanding sections of this machine. The British firm stands out for its experience and knowledge in filtering, with a complete line of air purification and various vacuum cleaners that include advanced systems in this section, and the protagonist of this analysis is one of them.

The advanced 5-stage filtration system of the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine traps 99,99% of 0,3 micron microparticles of dust, mites, pollen and other allergens, avoiding secondary pollution and obtaining purer air.

Additionally, Dyson evaluates the filtration at whole machine level, not just the filtering, to guarantee that what goes in does not come out, with a perfect sealing of the components (the firm speaks of "complete filtration of the machine"). It is not only about having a good filter, but, ultimately, what you want is for the dirt not to return to the outside.

Ergonomics and ease of use

The Dyson V15s is easy to handle, both in its "mop" format and when used as a vacuum cleaner.. All the pieces fit together simply and firmly, in a very intuitive process, so you can easily change format to scrub, vacuum or use it as a handheld vacuum cleaner, offering a very versatile and complete cleaning solution.

The "normal" heads offer good flexibility both horizontally and vertically, but it also stands out for the possibilities offered by the Nautik head. compared to other vacuuming and mopping solutions, as we explain at the end of this analysis.

The Fluffy head stands out for its slim design, which allows it to be easily placed under furniture, sofas or radiators, where others do not fit, and thanks to its green light it makes cleaning easier, more effective and fun.

For its part, The Digital Motorbar multifunction head adapts the power automatically depending on the type of floor, and thanks to its anti-tangle design, it combines efficiency and greater comfort in maintenance, something that its mini turbo brush also offers.

La spectacular color information screen It offers the most relevant information for the user, such as the selected mode, the remaining autonomy, the scientific dust collection test by particle size and various help, warning or error messages.

Maintenance

Maintenance of the device is very simple. The brushes are easy to remove, a process that is well detailed in the instructions, but which in any case is very easy.

The filter is washable, and the soft brush can also be washed (the one with the Fluffy head) and brush roller for scrubbing; Afterwards, these elements will have to be allowed to dry well, at least for 24 hours, before putting them back.

The tray where the Nautik head is located can Easily cleaned with a damp cloth.

Advantages of the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine

Opinions about the Dyson Submarine

It came from a Dyson V8 and the change is noticeable, I didn't know how dirty my house could be until I started using the green light accessory. It illuminates dust, hair and other particles with great clarity and motivates you to clean well.. As for the mop head, it takes getting used to (I've never had anything like it before), but I must say that mopping becomes less complicated thanks to the Dyson.

I think the mopping accessory is impressive, I have never used a mop again. In addition, it has great autonomy, more than what I had with my previous vacuum cleaner.

It's the best gift I've ever had. I am very surprised with the product, especially the head with green light that collects all the invisible microdust, it is a super powerful vacuum cleaner. The wet roller head does a great job, my floors look squeaky clean. I highly recommend it to everyone, I know you will love it.

This is my first Dyson vacuum cleaner, and I have to say it is a fantastic cleaning tool. It is capable of cleaning multiple surfaces, and I find the Submarine head very useful, especially if you have children. Furthermore, something very important is that maintenance is very simple. A highly recommended product.

Dyson V15s Detect Submarine VS Other Wet Dry Vacuums

The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine is a very unique machine, which offers enormous versatility and allows for effective and more complete cleaning of the home.. When carrying out this review, it is difficult to find a rival for this device, so - as the well-known joke went - we are going to go in parts, examining some possibilities offered by the competition.

Vacuum cleaners with mop

The V15s Detect Submarine can be considered as a stick vacuum cleaner to which the mopping capacity is added, using the Nautik head (and with some modifications to its software, as we mentioned previously).

Therefore, some machines such as the Conga RockStar 3000 Advance ErgoWet, Rowenta RH9990 X-Force Flex 14.60 or the Roidmi X30 Storm, All of them powerful machines when used as a vacuum cleaner, and that incorporate a tank with a mop for scrubbing.

However, These models offer a fairly simple scrubbing system Compared to the Dyson V15s, since basically what they offer is a mop that gets wet with water and passes over the floor as we move, they do not have any active cleaning element.

Wet-dry vacuum cleaners

In the category of wet and dry vacuum cleaners We find devices like the Roborock Dyad Pro, Tineco Floor One S5, Dreame M12 or the Proscenic F20, For example.

They are devices specially designed to clean solid and liquid (or semi-liquid) dirt at the same time., such as sauces, porridge, leftover fruit, juices, footprints, etc., offering a convenient and quick solution to many everyday problems.

They offer the advantage that They have a self-cleaning roller system, but they also have other drawbacks:

Stick vacuum cleaners with advanced mopping

This would really be the category in which the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine would fit best, and in which we can find some rivals more similar to the model that is the subject of this review.

Here brands such as Roidmi are mainly located, through models such as Nex VX; Samsung, on devices like the Jet 90 and Bespoke Jets, and LG, With the CordZero A9 Kompressor (in the Jet 90 you have to buy the scrubbing head separately; in the Bespoke Jet, you have to choose the Jet Pro Extra model; and in the LG CordZero A9, the A9K ULTRA1V version).

In these cases, The concept is similar to that of Dyson: based on a fantastic stick vacuum cleaner, its versatility is improved with an advanced scrubbing head, which in all of them uses two rotating round mops to obtain a better result in this area. However, they have some disadvantages compared to the English firm's model:

In any case They are, in our opinion, the most interesting alternative in this sense.. By price, the two Roidmi models and the Jet 90 are clearly below the Dyson, while the Samsung Bespoke Jet and the LG CordZero A9 are at a similar level.
