About this vacuum cleaner

  • The omnidirectional head genuinely steers sideways and around furniture legs in a way no other stick vacuum manages
  • At 1.9 kg it is light enough to use one-handed and to carry upstairs without thinking
  • Excellent on tiles, marble and wooden floors — the fluffy head picks up both fine dust and larger debris in one pass
  • Folds flat to reach under low furniture where taller sticks cannot go

Our verdict

The Omni-glide is a specialist and should be judged as one. Dyson built it for homes that are entirely hard-floored — tiles, marble, polished concrete, wood — which describes a very large share of Indian flats, and on those surfaces the omnidirectional head is a genuine pleasure to use.

What it is not is a whole-home machine. There is no carpet capability, the bin is tiny, and 20 minutes of runtime suits a 1BHK or a quick daily pass rather than a full clean. Bought with that understanding it is excellent; bought as a cheaper V15 it will disappoint.

What we like

  • The omnidirectional head genuinely steers sideways and around furniture legs in a way no other stick vacuum manages
  • At 1.9 kg it is light enough to use one-handed and to carry upstairs without thinking
  • Excellent on tiles, marble and wooden floors — the fluffy head picks up both fine dust and larger debris in one pass
  • Folds flat to reach under low furniture where taller sticks cannot go

What we don't

  • Hard floors only — there is no motorised carpet head, so it is the wrong machine for rugs
  • 20-minute runtime and a tiny 0.2 L bin limit it to small homes or quick tidies
  • Expensive for what is deliberately a specialist rather than a general-purpose machine

When this is not a good choice

Every condition below is derived from this product's published specifications and from how it compares with the vacuum cleaners we track — so you can check each one against your own room, supply or budget rather than take our word for it.

  • You live outside a metro or a major service town

    Dyson's service network is rated good rather than excellent. Filter availability and callout times are what decide whether a purifier is still running in five years, and they are worth checking for your pin code before you buy.

About Dyson

The premium benchmark, and the only mainstream brand that publishes fully-sealed HEPA H13 filtration standards alongside formaldehyde destruction. You pay a large premium for design, app intelligence and the fan/heater dual function — but the sensing and reporting genuinely are the best in the category.
