Engineering the Dyson WashG1™ wet cleaner

 

Hear from the engineers behind Dyson's latest technology, the Dyson WashG1™️ wet floor cleaner for hard floors.

 

Effortlessly glides

Motorised counter-rotating microfibre rollers spin in opposite directions, making the wet cleaner easy to manoeuvre. It reaches low under furniture and into awkward spaces.

 

Precision-controlled hydration

Tackle anything from light spills to sticky liquids and dried-on dirt, with three cleaning modes. Set the hydration level to suit the task. Plus there’s a Max mode for tough stains.

 

Up to 35 minutes of run time

A click-in battery, with four lithium-ion cells, delivers up to 35 minutes of run time across up to 290sqm, the size of a tennis court.

 

Separated hygienic disposal

Our unique system automatically separates dry debris from the dirty water – for hygienic, no-touch waste disposal.

 

Cleans hard floors. And even cleans itself.

In just 140 seconds, the Dyson WashG1™️ wet cleaner Self-clean cycle flushes the whole system clean while it charges – ready for your next clean.

 

Engineered to help make cleaning, cleaner.

 

 

Dyson roller technology

 

Powerful rotation

Two counter-rotating motorised rollers powerfully remove spills, debris, hair and dried-on stains.

 

Full-width roller hydration

26 hydration points are fed by a pulse-modulated pump for even water application to the rollers. So you clean with clean water from start to finish.

 

Highly absorbent rollers

Densely-packed microfibre of 64,800 filaments per cm² delivers high absorption for a clean finish.

 

Roller cleaning and waste separation

Secondary brush bars with nylon bristles remove large debris and hair from the rollers – while extraction plates squeeze off moisture. Debris collects in a removable tray, and waste liquid is pumped into a separate Dirty water tank.

 

Availability

 

The Dyson WashG1™️ wet cleaner is currently available in the UK, Germany, China, Australia and New Zealand. Coming to other countries soon. Find out more about this latest Dyson technology here.

Very excited to see this machine come to market in the United States! I’ve been wanting to try the V15s Detect Submarine wet roller, however, I haven’t made the jump due to choosing the Gen5detect. The counter rotating roller bars are super unique—separating large, dry debris—without any suction! Definitely on my list of Dyson machines that I must try. Thanks for the update, Jack!

In reply to user.thom (posted on another forum) who had the following question:  do Americans still wear their outside shoes inside their homes?

(Notice this isn't in "quotes" as I can't recall the exact wording, but, this is the essence of the question posed by that user).

In short I don't have the answer, but,  here is my take on this idea of taking one's shoes off (and my view on Dyson vacs, the new mop & my Dyson vac/mop combo):

Growing up we were a "take off your shoes at the front door and put on some slippers" household.  I've continued this in my own home.  We live in Canada & apply some of my childhood family's traditions in order to keep our home as dirt & germ free as reasonably possible.  It drives me a little batty when watching a made in the U.S. show/movie and people wear their outside shoes inside.  We've even trained my In-laws to take their shoes off at the front door (it took a while but it was worth it, lol). 😁 

We introduced Dyson vacuums into our home back in 2014 and have not looked back.  We now own and use 3 Dyson cordless vacs, including the newest vac/mop combo.  This is an amazing machine with great useful technology that provides the best clean I've ever seen in a vacuum.  We love that we are able to swap batteries seamlessly to continue & finish our vacuuming task.  The mop portion of this combination works really well and is extremely convenient.

I just found out about the new Dyson mop earlier today and extremely excited about it.  I'm a little taken aback by this new product as maybe we would have bought the new vac without the mop feature and waited for the mop to be released this fall.  But, thinking about it, having both our combo vac/mop & also getting the mop when released this fall will still be a great benefit in keeping our floors clean.  I figure the vac/mop combo can be used on a regular basis while the mop only will come into play less regularly, maybe once or twice a week, to do the heavy duty work.  Or, my wife and I can each use a Dyson mop and get our 2,000 square foot house cleaned that much faster.  I'm looking forward to it.

 

By the way, the green light feature on the bare floor cleaning head is a game changer.  We use the new vacuum more often than previous vacuums after the green light revealed how dusty our floors actually are, and, how clean they get after just one pass with our Dyson.  I wish each attachment had the green light feature, even if powered by separate batteries and even if it cost a bit more.  It is frustrating to see the dirt with the bare floor roller attachment that has the green light then switch to a slim nozzle (that doesn't have the light) to get under appliance or furniture only to be left in the dark & try to remember where the dirt actually was seen, attempt to get it with the nozzle then put the green light back into action and reveal that only part of the area got cleaned.  If each attachment came equipped with a green light it would make the cleaning process that much more thorough and could get completed faster.  I understand a green light can be purchased on Amazon, it is relatively small and has an adhesive to stick it onto other vacuum attachments.  I'll be looking into this to see if it is a feasible idea, both logistically and price wise.

Well, until the new mop comes out I'm wishing all Dyson owners happy vacuuming, and, to all those who use another brand of vacuum or vac/mop combo (if one even exists) I'd like to say the following:  you have no idea of what you're missing out on without having a Dyson.  Cheers!🤠

We bought the Dyson Wash G1 3 weeks ago. Used it now about 5 times now. 
This machine is an engineering marvel. The designers should be given an award in Dyson. Well Done!

1- It glides so smoothly. I was amazed. The counter rotating rollers help it to move abit in the direction u pull or push.

2- Cleaning is superb. I was really surprised at the amount of muck that is collected and the color of the water. We put in the clean water chamber, ½ cap of Detol and ½ cap of floor cleaner.

3- Draining and filling the containers is very easy. The big opening makes it easy to hold (not too larg), and also to reach inside, or rinze. The threads on the jars are easy to engage. Putting back the jars is easy. When putting the individual jars to the grey body, we get a clear, satisfying Click. When putting the jars to the Wash G1 unit, we get another satisfying click sound. Well-engineered.  

4- Self cleaning works great. I like how the small LCD display reminds me to empty the red tray (for solid debris). A few times, i forgot that, and the LCD screen reminded me. Well Done!

What used to take about an hour of mopping (with much effort), is so easy now.

I totally commend the usefulness of this machine. One of the best useful buys for the house. 

Bought it directly from Dyson Australia, as then we got a free set of rollers also (which i dont think we get if we buy the unit from a reseller)

Curious to try the new machine on our hard surface floors. Seems like a lot of new machines and technology are coming out this year which is exciting to see but my wallet isn’t very happy!  LOL

This looks an interesting device, but at first glance this suffers from the same problem that all the other devices on the market suffer from - and that is it relies on the floor being flat!

Strange as it might sound, in very old buildings (e.g. Victorian era and older), the floors and walls aren’t always flat enough for modern devices to work properly.

it would have been nice to be involved at the design stage to get this point on the board ;)

K

As a mom of two little kids. This would be ideal! I can’t tell you how many times a day/night I am cleaning up something that spilled on the floor. This would be perfect to have. Not to mention that this will clean itself when you are done...talk about a time saver! 

My question is the same as above, does this work on hardwood floors as well?
