World's Slimmest Vacuum Arrives: Dyson's Thin Wonder

Dyson's PencilVac, touted as the world's slimmest vacuum cleaner, is now available for purchase in the US at a price of $600. This revolutionary device integrates its motor, bin, and filter into a slim shaft, a design made possible by a motor inspired by Dyson's cyclone technology.

This compact engineering allows the main components to rest within the shaft, avoiding a bulky appearance. While attachments like the conical brush bar cleaner head can make it resemble a traditional vacuum, its core design remains exceptionally slender. Additional attachments, such as the 'Fluffycones' cleaner head designed to prevent hair tangling, are also available.

The vacuum weighs nearly four pounds and features an ergonomic design with a consistent diameter for easy handling, facilitating overhead cleaning. It includes a swappable battery providing approximately one hour of runtime and a magnetic charging dock. The device is compatible with the MyDyson app for battery monitoring and settings adjustment, with key information also visible on an LCD screen.

Early reviews indicate impressive performance, with a powerful motor despite its reduced size and excellent maneuverability. This makes the PencilVac a compelling option for consumers seeking cutting-edge cleaning technology and willing to invest $600.
