@Xpto Thanks for your post.

First, let’s establish that all V15 models EXCEPT the “submarine” models are the same machine.
The ONLY differences will be the colourways and the package of tools that come in the box. So do check the product listing pages to check to see which tools come in the box with the various variants.

Then, the “submarine” models will include the separate wet head and the capability to clean floors with wet and dry cleaning. (wet only on hard flooring)

NOTE: ONLY the models with “submarine” in the name have the capability for wet cleaning, you can’t add this capability to other versions of V15.

Thank you Adam! This helps.

I recently purchased V15 total from the "Never knowingly undersold" store as it was out of stock at Dyson. The accessory package there contains more than some other offers. Very pleased with very powerful machine at a competitive price. It is our 3rd stick cleaner from Dyson in 7 years and all are still working donated to family members.  

Appreciate the feedback. I decided to hold of a little longer. Given how low the stock is for the abosolute I assume a new model is coming out. 

A new version has recently been launched which features special filtering arrangements. It is described on the Dyson site.

Thank you. 

This is what is available in Ireland. Is the Gen5 you are referring to?

Yes. That's the one on the website. 

I honestly don’t get why manufacturers are doing the same engine and then different flavours and so many models - pet, animal, absolote, complete, total care, total care +. 

If in the future a brand can come up with a single vaccum with a basic set of acessories and then add-ons that would be great.
