Shopping for a Dyson vacuum is an experience. There are many models to navigate and serious price tags on most of them. As someone who tests vacuums for a living, I have to admit that a Dyson blows most other vacuums away. There are a few cheaper models I'll still grab (check out my full guide to cordless and robot vacuums for more recommendations), but if you're dreaming of a Dyson, this weekend is a great time to buy.

Several Dyson models I love are on sale for the long weekend. This weekend's sale includes Dyson's newest robot vacuum and the PencilVac that I can't stop using, and my overall favorites like the V15 Detect and Gen5Detect, and more models our team has loved using. Read on to find out every on-sale Dyson I'd buy this weekend.

Best Dyson Vacuums on Sale for Memorial Day

The Best Dyson for the Price

If you're looking for the best features for the best price, I already recommend the Dyson V15 Detect when it's not on sale, making this an even better time to buy. You'll get both a Fluffy Optic cleaner head and a Digital Motorbar cleaner head to use for hard floors, carpet, or rugs, trigger control, and details about the particles you suck up while you vacuum. It's lightweight and easy to use anywhere in the house, and the hour-long battery life should be plenty for a whole-home clean.

A More Powerful Dyson

Dyson's more powerful stick vacuum is the Gen5Detect, which is a great option if you have pets since it has a faster motor with more suction power than the V15 Detect to suck up more pet hair (it's our top vacuum for pet hair for a reason) and has a HEPA filter to keep allergens contained inside of the vacuum instead of being released back into the air. It also comes with a true power button, so you don't have to hold onto the trigger button the entire time to use it. Similar to the V15 Detect, it comes with both a Digital Motorbar cleaner head and a Fluffy Optic cleaner head to use on carpet and hard floors, respectively. You'll also get two more attachments, plus a built-in dusting and crevice tool (it's nice not to have to wonder where this attachment is!) It's an expensive vacuum, but well worth the investment when it's on sale.

If You Only Have Hard Floors

I shouldn't like the PencilVac so much, but I find myself reaching for it often, and I think it's plenty worth its abilities when it's on sale. Part of what makes it so easy to grab compared to my other stick vacuums is how easy it is to store and keep charged with the freestanding charging base, letting it stand wherever I like in my home as long as there's an outlet nearby. The PencilVac has two versions, the Fluffy and Fluffycones, with the latter having a design that has fluffy cone-shaped rollers to best collect debris. It is limited to only hard floors and has a short battery life, but I love how maneuverable and lightweight this vacuum is. It's usually a high price tag for its abilities, and even on sale, it's not what I would call cheap, but it's a great, quick daily vacuum.

Dyson's Latest Robot Vac

Dyson's newest robot vacuum, the Spot+Scrub Ai, is its first that doubles as both a vacuum and a mop. It has a large base station that reminds me of Dyson's vacuums, since the dry debris canister is clear and rounded like the ones you'd see attached to a Dyson stick vacuum or one of its upright models. It does a good job mopping and vacuuming, and can learn multiple floors, and the navigation has improved since the older Dyson 306 Vis Nav. Still, it's not perfect navigation, since the camera sits below the top of the vacuum and doesn't always see low-profile furniture that it'll bump into. If you don't have a ton of low furniture (or tons of IKEA pieces, as I do), this vacuum could be just perfect for you.

A Stick Vac and Mop

If you want a vacuum that doubles as a mop, look no further than this variation of the V15 Detect that's also on sale for the holiday weekend. The V15s Detect Submarine comes with the Submarine wet roller head that transforms it from a regular Dyson vacuum (that still comes with both the Fluffy optic cleaner head and Digital motorbar cleaner head for you to use on hard floors and carpet) into a wet roller mop. You can't buy a regular V15 Detect and add this attachment on; this V15s is made to work with this Submarine head. You'll fill the small reservoir on the roller head with water and can start mopping away, but you will have to rinse the mop head afterwards by hand, which is a little gross.

A Handheld-Only Dyson

If you're not looking to spend a ton but want a Dyson that's super portable and great for stairs, cars, and even boats, the Dyson Car+Boat is made for that. It's in the name, after all. This handheld-only vacuum packs solid power and has a great battery life for a handheld vacuum. It uses a trigger-style control like the V15 Detect, which I actually find ideal for cleaning compact spaces like stairs and cars so that you're not fumbling to switch it off as you move around the car or to the next set of stairs. It's an affordable way to get into the Dyson ecosystem, especially since it's on sale.
