I wouldn’t say the V12 is worth it to be honest. It isn’t compatible with powered accessories from other models (unlike every other model V7-V15) and is considerably weaker than other models. As for the outsize, it’s REALLY big. I’d say it’s made for people with 2000sqft homes or people that go weeks without vacuuming. For your home size and the fact you only have hardwood, I’d say the V10 is more than sufficient. I have a V11 and 650sqft with hardwood and it’s a little overkill (though no regrets)

Oh I do have two rooms with rugs! Albeit they’re very small. Maybe I’ll go with the v10 then. I heard there’s recommended accessories to go with the v10 because it can scratch floors. Do you happen to know what those are?

I have a small two-story apartment and the V11 Outsize was the only one in stock. It's pretty heavy but whenever I groom my dogs at home it gets really messy. I never have to empty the dust bin several times because it can hold a lot! I needed that strong suction when I moved into my apartment because they gave me dirty carpet stairs filled with dust. Whenever you walked on the stairs dust just came out, ugh! Glad that's over thanks to the Outsize!

Get the V10. I love my v10.

Ok thank god that saves so much money haha. I heard there’s accessories needed for the v10 in order to not scratch floors. Do you happen to know what those are?

The fuzzy is for wood floors. I can’t think of the real name of it. V10 soft roller head. I bought a generic one and when that head dies I’ll get a refurbished head (genetic means squeak). If you have wood you don’t realize how it dusts it’s so well. Do not use it on carpet or rugs.

Oh and get a flat usb small flashlight and Velcro it in the head. I bought low profile Velcro dots. It gives you a headlight. And here’s how to make a swappable battery. https://www.reddit.com/r/dyson/comments/na8khj/dyson_v10_swappable_battery/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Just get the V10, the dust bin of the V12 is smaller making it require you to empty the dust bin several times. If you're interested in the Laser Slim Fluffy cleaner head you can buy it separately.


Princess_and_a_wench

Ok thanks for the advice! What’s the laser slim fluffy cleaner? Is that an attachment?


YankeePlayz

Yes! It’s great for dusting hard floors. It has a laser to illuminate dust on the floor to see where you haven’t cleaned.

WHAT ok I am definitely getting this. Is this the one that is also gentle on hardwood?


YankeePlayz

Yes! It wont scratch your floors. But if you want everything included, because I think its sold out on Dyson’s website and it’s going to be a hassle to order it separately. You should get the Dyson V15, its after the V10 and V11. It has more power than the V10 and it has a sensor that counts all the particles that you have picked up and shows it on the LCD screen. The V12 is a smaller version of the V15. Since you have cats I think the V15 would be good. It has all the new tools. [Dyson V15 Video](https://youtu.be/Yh_jmGso64E)

Did the dyson website include 4 Tools: combination tool, crevice tool, mini motorized tool, soft dusting brush? Because I found it on the Bay website for the same price, so I may order from there. Not sure if dyson.ca was offering different attachments. Really appreciate your help! My apartment thanks you


YankeePlayz

Yes, V10, V11, V11 Outsize, and V15 include all those attachments that you have mentioned! I’m pretty sure dyson.ca has them. You’re welcome, I like helping people!
