Until now, Dyson had always characterized its devices by managing air with incredible efficiency. In numerous and original ways, the British company has created trends in devices that adjust the air flow. Purifiers, vacuum cleaners and dryers are some of its main product lines. But what if they dared with water? Well they have done it. The Dyson V15 Detect Submarine becomes an original mop thanks to its Dyson Nautik accessory. Collects debris and scrubs, all at the same time and without using air.
The Dyson Detect Submarine is the combo of the very powerful Dyson V15 Detect Absolute broom vacuum cleaner that, to the accessories it already had, adds the Dyson Nautik mop. It is not a mop to clean an entire room, although it could also be, but it is an original way to collect any substance, liquid or solid, that falls on the floor. The Dyson Nautik wet brush is a complement to scrubbing.
The Dyson Nautik is made up of a plastic body that contains two water tanks and a roller. One of the tanks carries clean water, the other carries dirty water as a result of cleaning and the substances that have been collected. Anyone who has used a Dyson stick vacuum cleaner before will be surprised by adding this mopping accessory, because in this case, the suction functions are disconnected (it would not make sense) and the only thing that works is the accessory in contact with the floor.
The second surprise is that the speed of the roller makes the mop move very smoothly on the floor, although with a certain inertia. It is very notable that this accessory breaks with many things that have been assimilated for years. For example, we have learned that if there are solid remains on the floor, such as rice or cereals, it is more practical to sweep or vacuum them before mopping, but in the case of the new Dyson accessory it is not necessary. It collects everything, solid and liquid.
The fact that the pickup works so well is, as with everything from Dyson, a product of engineering. The surface of the scrubbing roller passes through a point where a filament extracts dirty water and particles from the ground, which are stored in a tank for this function. Meanwhile, the upper part of the brush, now clean, is soaked again with clean water from the other tank.
Another thing is to empty it. This is the first generation of this accessory for Dyson stick vacuum cleaners and will probably be improved in the future, but removing the dirty water tank and emptying it, for example, into the toilet, is not the most intuitive process and Sometimes you can pour clean water outside. The idea is very good, although the implementation has a clear room for improvement.
In this way, the concept of a broom vacuum cleaner becomes, with the Dyson Detect Submarine, that of a broom and mop vacuum cleaner. Although it is a device that can be used for general cleaning of the floor, in this case, it is an ideal accessory to solve problems such as spilling drinks. Tested even with the liquid and the smallest fragments of a broken glass bottle on the floor, the device ends up collecting and leaving the area clean, a job that is more difficult and time-consuming by traditional methods.
As a purchase option, the fact that the Dyson V15 Detect Submarine adds the Dyson Nautik accessory is another addition to the universe of the broom vacuum cleaner, which is one of the great references – if not the main one – in the universe of this type of device. . The possibility of being used as a mop, which deactivates the vacuum, is the last icing on the cake of a cleaning system of maximum excellence, but it does not seem enough on its own to motivate its acquisition. The complete package is magnificent. Do not forget that this device also includes a soft brush with a powerful green light that discovers apparently hidden dirt and a counting system for the particles of different sizes that it vacuums to decide if more power is needed depending on the vacuuming. The scrubbing function complements all that and makes the whole set a quality and very complete cleaning machine.
