Dyson V7 Trigger Handheld Vacuum Review

Dyson V7 Trigger Cord-Free Handheld Vacuum CleanerThe Dyson V7 Trigger handheld vacuum cleaner is great for vacuuming the interior or your vehicle and for picking up dirt around the house. It is great for cleaning pet hair from your furniture and spot cleaning the floor.

I find it really useful when it comes to pulling up pet hair since it has a motorized tool specially for picking pet hair. It is easy to operate, light in weight and is powerful enough to pick up big pieces of dirt off the floor.

If you are looking for a good cord-free, hand-held vacuum cleaner for cleaning the stairs and upholstery of your house, the Dyson V7 Trigger a handheld vacuum is an excellent option.


Features of the Dyson handheld vacuum

Digital V7 Motor

The motor of the V7 is very powerful. It is not much of an upgrade when you compare it to the Dyson V6, but it is much better than most of the handheld vacuum cleaners in the market. It has a power of 100 air watts.

Run Time

The run time of the Dyson V7 Trigger Handheld is half an hour if you keep it on the low mode. This is more than enough if you want to clean your whole house. If you get it on max mode, you will get a very low run time so use the max mode judiciously.

Tools

The Dyson Handheld Vacuum comes with three tools which are the crevice tool, the combination tool, and the mini turbo brush.

The crevice tool as the name suggests can be used to clean dirt in crevices.

The combination tool is a mini crevice tool with a brush tool.

The mini turbo brush can be used when you want to clean fabric on your upholstery or carpet. It has stiff bristles which help you to deep clean fabric. The brush tool is useful as you can use it on a mattress along with your upholstery. If you want to clean cushions, you can opt for the Dyson V7 Trigger Pro since it also has HEPA filtration.

Filtration

The Dyson V7 Trigger Handheld Vacuum has 15 cyclones. This ensures that the dirt won’t clogs up the filter much so you won’t have to clean the filter frequently.

Another thing I like about this vacuum is that as per Dyson it can filter allergens which are as small as 0.5 microns. This is great as it improves the quality of the air.

Hygienic dirt ejector

One of the best features of the Dyson Handheld Vacuum is the design of the dirt bin. The bin of the V7 has the mechanism to push down the dirt instead of waiting for gravity to push the dirt down. This makes it very easy to empty the bin and much less messy. There may still be some debris that may stick to the filter, but it will be much less when you compare it to other vacuum cleaners.

Mode

You get two modes with the Dyson V7 Trigger. One is the normal mode which will give you decent suction and longer run time and the other is the max mode which will give you a lot of power. One of the things I like about the V7 is that it has a slide to change the modes rather than a switch. This makes changing the modes smoother and easier.

Cleaning performance

The Dyson V7 Trigger Cord-free Handheld Vacuum is mainly for spot cleaning. Since it does not have an extension wand like most normal stick cleaners have, it will be difficult to use it to clean floors. When the Dyson V7 Trigger Vacuum is in max mode, it picks up a lot of dirt and can even suck huge pieces of leftover food which may be fall on the floor or your furniture after a party. Just keep in mind that when you use the max mode, the run time reduces considerably and you may get only about 5 minutes of run time.
