At present, Dyson introduced a brand-new, slim and manoeuvrable moist flooring cleaner. It’s known as the PencilWash and it’ll be accessible from 4 March within the UK, priced at £299.99 and from 14 March within the US, for $349 – which may be very cheap for a Dyson machine, albeit costly for a mop. Nevertheless it may simply be value it.
It’s the mopping equal of Dyson’s slender PencilVac, which you should purchase from Dyson UK for a pricier £429.99 and Dyson US for $449.99.
The PencilWash is slim, with a 38mm deal with, and light-weight at 2.2kg (4.85lbs). Regardless of its slender construct, it may wash as much as 100m2 of flooring earlier than that you must empty its tanks and recharge it.

That as a result of there are fewer compromises wanted to make an ultra-slim mop than to make an ultra-slim vacuum. Vacuums want to have the ability to suck up all method of particles and hair. And a slender vacuum is more likely to clog. Even a mannequin with rollers designed to spin hair away, just like the Fluffycones on the PencilVac, will nonetheless doubtlessly battle with pet or human hair.
Not so the PencilWash, which doesn’t draw up any water or particles by the deal with. As a substitute, there’s a 300ml clear water reservoir within the base, and soiled water and particles are flicked away with every spin of the curler right into a second tank, which is simple to empty and clear.

I’ve examined quite a lot of moist vacuums and for me, the most important points are weight and manoeuvrability. Whereas typical moist vacuums dispose of the mess and problem of handbook mopping, they create problems with their very own by being considerably lower than nimble. They will’t get anyplace close to the sting of room, or below furnishings, they usually have the turning circle of a 14-wheeler truck. In case you have an condo or smaller house, it doesn’t at all times really feel worthwhile to pull one out.
The PencilWash, however, is compact and all about manoeuvrability. You should utilize it with a single hand and it lies nearly flat (170o) to get proper below furnishings.
I’m wanting ahead to reviewing it shortly, so examine again to see the way it carried out in our assessments.
