Bosch Cordless Vacuums Challenge Dyson Dominance

Bosch, a brand known for high-end appliances, is launching its first cordless vacuums, the Unlimited 9 and 10, in January 2026. These new models incorporate features like a dust-compressing dustbin lever, similar to Dyson's, to reduce mess during disposal and improve airflow during operation. Both vacuums also boast an automatic suction adjustment feature that senses and adapts to different surfaces, optimizing cleaning efficiency.

The Unlimited 10 distinguishes itself with a 'Micro Clean Sensor' LED ring that indicates floor cleanliness, suggesting advanced microscopic dust removal capabilities. Battery life varies between the models, with the Unlimited 10 offering up to 80 minutes and the Unlimited 9 up to 60 minutes on a single charge, depending on the mode. Bosch will also offer a quick charger and bundles with extra batteries.

Priced from $499 for the Unlimited 9 to $699 for the Unlimited 10, these vacuums are positioned to compete directly with established brands like Dyson and Shark. While they lack self-standing capability and a self-emptying station, their feature set and competitive pricing suggest they could make a significant impact on the market upon their release.
