Dyson's new DC59 and DC65 vacuums respectively offer, according to the company, corded upright vacuum power in a cordless handheld vacuum and twice as much suction as any other upright vacuum.
British luxury vacuum manufacturer Dyson today announced two new vacuums for the North American market, including one designed specifically for the United States.
The DC59 is a cordless, handheld vacuum cleaner Dyson claims is just as powerful as a corded, upright vacuum, while the DC65 is a corded upright that Dyson claims produces twice as much suction as any other commercially available vacuum, including previous Dyson models.
The cordless DC59 is as functional and powerful as a conventional vacuum, Dyson says. The model uses Dyson's new V6 motor, which is 150 percent faster, combined with a "2 Tier Radial cyclone" design that uses two levels of conical air cavities to increase suction and collect finer dust. It also comes with a long attachment wand that, along with an extra-wide carpet and floor-cleaning head, effectively turns the hand-held vacuum cleaner into an upright. Dyson will also release a version without the wand and carpet head as the handheld-only DC58 vacuum.
The DC65, meanwhile, is the first vacuum cleaner Dyson has designed specifically for the United States. It's also the quickest-developed model, produced after only nine months of design and testing.
The DC65 is Dyson's most powerful upright vacuum cleaner, edging out the DC40 and DC41 vacuums and, according to Dyson, beating other upright vacuum cleaners twice over. It uses a new floor cleaner head that adjusts to different floor surfaces, working on carpets and hard flooring. It also features a hose and wand built into the body for spot cleaning and corners without changing accessories. Like other Dyson uprights, it uses the company's ball design, storing many components inside a reinforced ball at the base that lets it turn around corners.
The Dyson DC59 ships on Feb. 1 and will be available in retail stores with a suggested price of $499.99. The DC65 ships as a Best Buy exclusive on Jan. 19, and will be available at Dyson's website and other major retailers on March 2 in Multifloor, Animal, and Animal Complete versions with additional attachments for $499, $599, and $649, respectively.

I’ve been PCMag’s home entertainment expert for over 10 years, covering both TVs and everything you might want to connect to them. I’ve reviewed more than a thousand different consumer electronics products including headphones, speakers, TVs, and every major game system and VR headset of the last decade. I’m an ISF-certified TV calibrator and a THX-certified home theater professional, and I’m here to help you understand 4K, HDR, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and even 8K (and to reassure you that you don’t need to worry about 8K at all for at least a few more years).
Home theater technology (TVs, media streamers, and soundbars)
Smart speakers and smart displays
I test TVs with a Klein K-80 colorimeter, a Murideo SIX-G signal generator, a HDFury Diva 4K HDMI matrix, and Portrait Displays’ Calman software. That’s a lot of complicated equipment specifically for screens, but that doesn’t cover what I run on a daily basis.
I use an Asus ROG Zephyr 14 gaming laptop as my primary system for both work and PC gaming (and both, when I review gaming headsets and controllers), along with an aging Samsung Notebook 7 as my portable writing station. I keep the Asus laptop in my home office, with a Das Keyboard 4S and an LG ultrawide monitor attached to it. The Samsung laptop stays in my bag, along with a Keychron K8 mechanical keyboard, because I’m the sort of person who will sit down in a coffee shop and bust out not only a laptop, but a separate keyboard. Mechanical just feels better.
For my own home theater, I have a modest but bright and accurate TCL 55R635 TV and a Roku Streambar Pro; bigger and louder would usually be better, but not in a Brooklyn apartment. I keep a Nintendo Switch dock connected to it, along with a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X so I can test any peripheral that comes out no matter what system it’s for. I also have a Chromecast With Google TV for general content streaming.
As for mobile gear, I’m surprisingly phone-ambivalent and have swapped between iPhones and Pixels from generation to generation. I favor the iPhone for general snapshots when I need to take pictures of products or cover events, but I also have a Sony Alpha A6000 camera for when I feel like photo walking.
