It has been almost ten years since Dyson unveiled its supersonic hair dryer for the first time, which has put its technology of fans without a signature blade in a style product. For a company that was mainly known for its vacuum cleaners at the time, it was a surprising decision. Since then, Dyson has published several beauty tools such as its iron at Curling Airwrap which has generated countless imitations. The company has also extended to other categories such as audio with its Ontrac headphones and controversial zone headphones with a built purification mask while continuing to do some of our favorite wireless vacuum cleaners.
Today, Dyson loops in loop by announcing the pencil, which says it is the “thinnest vacuum cleaner in the world”. The torsion? He realizes this thinness using an engine which is fundamentally the same as that of the supersonic hair dryer.
What makes the pencil different from existing vacuum cleaners is the fact that it is essentially the tree, with some fixing options for the head. This means that there is no bulge unless you use the stretched brush bar cleaning head. All parts that would normally take up space on a conventional vacuum (such as a tank, a filter and an engine) all adapt inside the long cylinder. At the bottom, you can attach a variety of heads designed specifically for pencil, including the main one that Dyson calls a “Fluffycon” clean head.
The company said that it had four cones in two brush bars that turn in opposite directions, and they were designed to “undress and even eject long hair, preventing hair getting fitted around the brush bar”. The laser -shaped lights at both ends of this head also help to illuminate where the dust particles could be so that you can better see the places you missed.
In total, the penonvac weighs approximately 3.96 pounds (1.8 kg) and is supposed to be easy to use in all kinds of difficult to access areas. As it has the same diameter of about 1.5 inch (38 mm) everywhere, you can grasp it quite easily along its body, wherever you choose to place your hands. This should facilitate the collection for cleaning the general costs.
To make all the pencil pencil look like a pencil, a pencil, Dyson had to rethink a lot of components. This includes the new Hyperdymium 140K engine, which, according to the company, is its “smallest empty engine (28 mm) and the fastest”. There is also a new dust compression system to “maximize the bin capacity”. Speaking of, the tank integrates inside the cylinder itself, and it has a transparent window which allows you not only to see how full it is, but also to look at the suckled debris. In fact, during a recent demo, I looked with a mixture of satisfaction and sadness while pieces of crushed biscoff cookies flew to the top of the tank.
Despite its small size, the Hypderdymium 140K engine seemed very powerful in my short time with it, because it sucked the cheerios, cookies and other detritus with ease. I also found the whole device, mostly easy to maneuver – it did not feel too heavy and surrounded on bumpy food waste with ease. I was slightly confused by the locking system because I had to make sure to keep it precisely (and wait a click) after finishing to make sure that the stick did not fall on the ground.
Dyson has also designed a new filtration system which, according to the company, “effectively separates dust and debris from the air flow without lowering performance or cleaning performance”. It also made a new “two -step linear dust separation system, which captures 99.99% of particles at 0.3 microns, so only clean air is expelled in the house.”
More interestingly, the penonvac has a “air compression tank design” which allows the bin to contain “five times more dust and debris than its capacity of 0.08 L”. In the few cleaning cycles that I witnessed, the pencil was certainly seemed to pack in the garbage quite closely, although it could really contain 0.4 l of things is something that I could not measure.
When the time comes to empty the container, you can use what Dyson calls his “new hygienic syringe bin ejection system” to empty it. I have not tried this myself, but it essentially involves removing the cleaner head, targeting the bottom of the penonvac to your trash receptacle and in a way to kiss the transparent accommodation from top to bottom to take out the debris. I looked at a Dyson engineer doing this and the process seemed simple, although he looked like parts of the housing hidewood. The good news is that you can detach the shell and the filters to clean them more carefully.
The penonvac also has a swappable battery which can last up to 60 minutes of suction, and you can load the machine on its magnetic loading quay. It is also the first connected wireless vacuum of Dyson, which means that it works with the MyDYSON application so that you can see the battery levels, access more parameters and obtain maintenance alerts (like when and how to clean the filter). There is also an LCD screen at the top of the handle that displays the selected power mode as well as the remaining execution time (while you clean). You will interact widely with the controls via the two physical buttons here as well.
Dyson has not shared details on the prices on penonvac, but there is a lot of time for the company to understand this because it will only be available in the United States next year. It is 2026. Meanwhile, the device will sell in other regions.
