Featuring a futuristic looking design and a high quality filter, the Dyson is definitely a premium vacuum – whether its worth the premium will really depend how you use your handheld vac.

Dyson advertises the incredible power of the DC16. The vacuum is strong, but whether it provides a large advantage over most handheld vacuums in normal use is doubtful. Additionally, like most vacuums of this type, a battery charge lasts for a very short amount of time.

Despite the downsides, the DC16 Root 6 is a good choice for anyone willing to pay for a premium portable vac. It is easy to empty, charges very quickly, and cleans well. For more information, or to get pricing details, check out its page at Amazon or eBay.
