What reviewers say about the Dyson V15s Detect Submarine

Two whitelisted hands-on testers — TechRadar and Tom's Guide — reviewed this exact model. Both rate the dry vacuuming as excellent on carpet and hard floors and the Submarine mop head as handy for small cleanups and dried-on spills, but flag the small water tanks and dirty-water streaking/leaking as genuine annoyances that keep it from replacing a proper mop.

Consistently praised

  • Dry vacuuming is excellent on both carpet and hard floors · 2 sources
  • Submarine mop head handles spills, spot cleans and dried-on stains well · 2 sources
  • Lightweight and easy to maneuver around the home · 2 sources
  • Long-lasting battery life · 2 sources

Commonly flagged

  • Small clean-water tank limits mopping to roughly one room before a refill · 2 sources
  • Wet roller leaves streaks when you pause mid-mop · 2 sources
  • Unsealed dirty-water compartment drips and leaks, with no level indicator
  • No auto self-cleaning function for the roller

Where reviewers disagree Measured Eco-mode runtime differed notably: Tom's Guide clocked 76 minutes while TechRadar got 62 minutes. Part of the gap is that TechRadar tested an Australia-only 'Complete' variant with some Gen5detect upgrades rather than the standard model Tom's Guide used.

The vacuuming is excellent and the Submarine floorhead also works pretty well for basic cleanups, save for the fact it's prone to dripping dirty water all over your just-mopped floors.
In my tests, this performed extremely well, handling everyday cleans as well as more specific tasks such as clearing a thick, almost-dry food spill, and muddy boot prints.
it suffers from one significant design flaw – the dirty water tank is not fully sealed and, as it gets full, it can spill.

Tom's Guide lab-tested ·

Battery runtime (Eco mode, hands-on): 76 minutes

its impressive, suction power quickly cleaned my carpet from dirt and dust in no time at all — making it look almost new again!
if you pause mid-flow, the roller can leave grimy water streaks behind — where the suction has essentially stopped.
the head holds a small water tank — so it will never replace a full bucket.
