Dyson Outsize

We expect this model to perform similarly to the tested Dyson Outsize+ although it may differ in price and features.

This cordless Dyson stick vacuum has two replaceable 25.2 Li-ion batteries and two chargers. It converts to hand vac mode and comes with a crevice tool, 2-in-1 contoured nozzle/ brush, dust brush, motorized pet hair brush that adapts to vertical surfaces and an upholstery tool. This model does not have the soft brush powerhead for bare floors.
