Brand new vacuums will probably get more expensive soon, but refurbished Dysons are on sale
SAVE UP TO $200: As of April 15, Walmart has two great refurbished Dyson deals under $400: Save $70 and get the Dyson V8 Origin+ for $179.99 or save $200 and get the Dyson V15 Detect Total Clean for $399.99
A new Dyson vacuum? In this economy?
Dysons are already on the expensive end for vacuums, and tariffs could cause Dyson price tags to spike any time now. Dyson has key manufacturing hubs in countries like Singapore, China, and Mexico — all of which are being hit tariff rates to varying (quite steep) degrees. While there's no official word yet from the brand itself, Dyson is likely one of the tech brands that'll need to raise prices.
A refurbished Dyson vacuum in this economy, however, could be doable — especially when they have an extra discount tacked onto the original refurb price. I'm actually seeing two stellar refurbished Dyson vacuum deals at Walmart, each appealing to slightly different budgets: Get a Dyson V8 Origin+ for $179.99 (regularly $249.99 refurbished or $329.99 brand new) or the Dyson V15 Detect Total Clean for $399.99 (regularly $599.99 refurbished or $749.99 brand new).
Whichever of these two Dysons is best for you simply depends on how intense your cleaning needs are at home — or, rather, how intense you are about cleaning.
The V8 is on the lower end of Dyson's suction spectrum, dishing out slightly more oomph than the V7 for up to 40 minutes on one charge. It'll totally suffice for single-person homes or other smaller spaces with light foot traffic.
The V15 Detect brings home Dyson's iconic green laser that highlights dust, hair, and tiny crumbs that don't always show up to the naked eye (but definitely show up on the bottom of your feet). I fell in love with the laser when I first got the Dyson V12 Detect Slim a few years ago, and it has literally changed my life as a cat mother of two. The laser is so good at pointing out dusty spots on hard floors that I actually use it to test the suction performance of all of the robot vacuums I test at home. And, compared to the V12 that I use, the V15 on sale at Walmart actually has stronger suction and a larger dust bin. Depending on the mode you select on the LCD screen, the V15 Detect can clean for up to an hour on one charge.
