I love them so much, but they leave my entire house incredibly gross. Whether they&#8217;re scratching up my couch or drooling on my faux hardwood floors, it&#8217;s near-impossible to keep up with the mess they leave behind, and so it really takes a couple of key investments (like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/furniture-clinic-leather-recoloring-balm\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/furniture-clinic-leather-recoloring-balm\/\">furniture re-coloring balm<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/tineco-floor-one-s5-cleaner-review\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/tineco-floor-one-s5-cleaner-review\/\">Tineco mop-vacuum duo<\/a>) to keep my place clean-ish.

That&#8217;s thanks to its monster of a motor (the fifth-generation Hyperdymium motor spins at 135,000 rpm), which offers 280 air watts of suction. In other words: It&#8217;ll suck up large pieces of trash your old vacuum could never, all without batting an eye.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related-content \" style=\"\" data-module-init=\"related-content\" data-module-immediate=\"\" v-cloak=\"\">\n<div class=\"related-content__wrapper \" v-cloak=\"\" :class=\"{'is-loaded':isLoaded}\">\n<p> <span class=\"inline pr-6 text-seafoam-dark\">Related Stories<\/span> <\/p>\n<p> <related-content class=\"related-content__links\" parent-article-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/dyson-gen5-outsize-review\/\" current-title=\"I Tested Dyson\u2019s Newest, Most Powerful Cordless Vacuum on the Market\u2014My Floors Have Never Been Cleaner\" current-image=\"dyson-gen5detect-review-425x285.jpg\" v-on:parsely-posts-loaded=\"onPostsLoaded\" start-date=\"2023-02-19\" tag=\"div\" inline-template=\"\" url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/dyson-gen5-outsize-review\/\" secret=\"w5ztterVB03LGZJLfXS0hf3EvQBuFFIWew9hmVQxthU\" apikey=\"wellandgood.com\" limit=\"3\"> <\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"related-content__card mb-[10px] sm:mb-[20px]\" :class=\"{'related-content__card--full':posts.length === 1}\" v-for=\"(post, key) in posts\"> <a v-on:click.prevent=\"trackLinkGA($event, key)\" :href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/dyson-gen5-outsize-review\/post.url\" data-url-source=\"related-content\" class=\"related-content__link\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"\"> <\/p>\n<div class=\"related-content__card--image bg-tan\" :style=\"{ backgroundImage: 'url(' + post.image_url + ')' }\"> <img :src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/dyson-gen5-outsize-review\/post.image_url\" :alt=\"post.title\"\/> <\/div>\n<p> <\/a>  <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <\/related-content> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>It&#8217;s the most advanced vacuum Dyson&#8217;s launched<\/h3>\n<p>Tech-wise, you can&#8217;t get a smarter vacuum. The Gen5 has a Fluffy Optic cleaner head that literally lights up the dirt on the floor for extra visibility, so you&#8217;ll be able to clean up even the most microscopic dust. Plus, its LED display shows you how dirty (or clean) your floor is.<\/p>\n<p>Something I especially love about this vacuum is that it features a single button control, so you don&#8217;t have to hold down the trigger the entire time you&#8217;re vacuuming. All you do is press &#8220;on&#8221; and go about cleaning, which makes navigation a lot easier.

I didn&#8217;t mind it with my Outsize, but since the suction is so powerful, I rarely have to go over surface area again\u2014it gets it all in one go.<\/p>\n<p>The Gen5outsize gets all the dog hair without any issues (the Outsize was fantastic, but the filter would often get clogged with hair), along with the mess of crumbs we leave behind in the kitchen. It even picks up leaves and dried-up flowers that the dogs bring inside from my backyard without coughing or sputtering. The Gen5outsize (like the Outsize) will switch gears from hardwood to carpet since it&#8217;s smart enough to know what kind of surface it&#8217;s dealing with.<\/p>\n<p>Watch it in action here (my dogs say hello):<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" style=\"max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@ginavaynshteyn\/video\/7265813547681205550\" data-video-id=\"7265813547681205550\">\n<section><a title=\"@ginavaynshteyn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@ginavaynshteyn?refer=embed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@ginavaynshteyn?refer=embed\">@ginavaynshteyn<\/a> Testing Dyson\u2019s most powerful cordless vacuum <a title=\"dyson\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/dyson?refer=embed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/dyson?refer=embed\">#dyson<\/a> <a title=\"dysonvacuum\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/dysonvacuum?refer=embed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/dysonvacuum?refer=embed\">#dysonvacuum<\/a> <a title=\"cleantok\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/cleantok?refer=embed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/cleantok?refer=embed\">#cleantok<\/a> <a title=\"\u266c Dreams - The Cranberries\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/Dreams-6927743181459048450?refer=embed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/Dreams-6927743181459048450?refer=embed\">\u266c Dreams &#8211; The Cranberries<\/a><\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In terms of usage, it&#8217;s easy. It comes with some extensions, like the hair-screw tool, combination tool, and a built-in-dusting and crevice tool that I use for places like the couch, bed, and blinds. You can really knock out both vacuuming and dusting if you want. You just simply pop off the extensions and click in whatever you&#8217;d like to use, based on your needs, and where the debris is located.<\/p>\n<p>The LED screen is a really awesome component since it&#8217;ll show you just how clean or dirty your floor is\u2014it&#8217;s really satisfying.<\/p>\n<p>As for its charge, my house is 1,700 square feet (all faux hardwood, two rugs), and I don&#8217;t even come close to using up the battery life. I generally will have 100 minutes of run-time left (if I started using it with a fully-charged battery). Since the Outsize&#8217;s dust bin is larger than the standard Gen5&#8217;s, I can generally get half the house done before I have to dump the debris out.<\/p>\n<h2>Is the Gen5outsize worth it?<\/h2>\n<p>The thing about the Gen5outsize is that&#8217;s over $1,000. That&#8217;s a lot! Is it better than other versions of Dyson? Absolutely. It&#8217;s stronger and has smarter tech. It&#8217;s a great product, especially if you have medium-to-large square footage, pets, and\/or kids. It&#8217;s an amazing tool if you feel like you&#8217;re constantly in an uphill battle against the mess in your home and need a solution that&#8217;s not a regular cleaning service (also expensive).<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, what sets this apart from other Dysons (and other brands like Shark and Tineco), is that it&#8217;s really powerful, and it&#8217;s very, very easy.\u00a0 In reviews, the Gen5outsize has been called the &#8220;Lexus&#8221; of vacuums\u2014and after testing it for two months, I have to agree.<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimers__after_content mb-[18px] mt-[16px] pt-[16px]\">\n<div class=\"outline-earmark relative mt-[8px] pt-[10px] pl-[20px]\">\n<p>\n            Our editors independently select these products.
