Good79/100
In the test, the Dyson V12 Slim Absolute proves to be a good, if not outstanding offshoot of the well-known hoover manufacturer. Weighing only 1.4 kg in the hand, it is one of the lighter, top-heavy vacuums. What it gains in handling, it loses somewhat in suction power and features compared to other Dyson vacuum cleaners. Yet it is just as loud and only slightly cheaper than its "big" siblings.
