Good deal – The Dyson V11 Animal Extra “4-star” stick vacuum cleaner at €579.00 (-21%)

The Dyson V11 Animal Extra opens the British manufacturer’s “Extra” range. This stick vacuum cleaner has a screen and a removable battery. Perfectly identical to the V11 Absolute Extra, this model does not however come with a high-torque brush and ignores the automatic mode.

The range starts with the V11 Animal Extra. The difference with the V11 Absolute Extra lies in the list of accessories supplied with the device. This edition is devoid of the Fluffy brush and the High Torque brush, yet a big novelty in the V11 range. Thus, the V11 Animal Extra necessarily ignores the automatic mode – inseparable from the dedicated brush – and, in this sense, the screen is only used to keep an eye on the level of battery charge. With this version, the user misses out on the features of V11. The fact remains that it is a very good stick vacuum cleaner offering very good suction performance, perfect filtration and simplified maintenance. Unlike the V11 Animal Plus, its battery is removable.

Strong points

• Excellent suction capabilities.
• Perfect filtration.
• Autonomy management to the nearest second thanks to the screen.
• Simple and not messy maintenance.

Weak points

• A bit heavy when the cleaning session gets longer.
• Noisy in boost mode.
• Extraction and replacement of the battery not necessarily obvious.

Alternatively

Even if the T30 borrows many technologies from its competitors – we think in particular of the particle counter – its general performance largely pleads in its favor. It is not content to be effective on all surfaces, without breaking the ears too much; it demonstrates perfect filtration and offers multiple extras (choice between fractional or continuous suction, numerous accessories, etc.) to finally place itself as a very serious competitor to the Dyson stable.
