Verdict
Pros & cons
Der Dreame V30 Essential ist ein kräftiger Akku-Stielsauger, der den Kabelsauger ganz ersetzen kann: Hochflor ist in zwei bis drei Zügen sauber, und Tierhaare wickeln sich nicht auf. In Eco mit Bodendüse hält der Akku rund 70 min. Der Haken: Das Handteil wiegt 2,3 kg, und für Parkett fehlt eine weiche Bodenwalze.
Pros
- Holt Krümel und Haare aus Hochflor in zwei bis drei Zügen
- OmniX-Walze und Mini-Motorbürste wickeln keine Tierhaare auf
- Rund 70 min in Eco mit Bodendüse, im Turbo über 10 min
- Wechselakku mit 29,6 V lässt sich per Knopf tauschen
- Knickrohr mit 90° saugt unter Bett und Sideboard ohne Bücken
- Partikelsensor regelt die Saugkraft im Automatikmodus nach
Cons
- Keine weiche Bodenwalze für Parkett im Lieferumfang
- Handteil mit 2,3 kg ermüdet nach 15 bis 20 min das Handgelenk
- Laden bis 99 % dauert gut 200 min
- Mit bis zu 86 dB laut
- Bodenlicht nur links, rechte Düsenseite bleibt kaum beleuchtet
Der Dyson Gen 5 DT Absolute ist ein außergewöhnlich gründlicher Akkusauger, der Teppich und Hartboden in Praxistests nahezu restlos reinigt. Für große Wohnungen mit Teppich und Haustieren ist er eine starke Wahl, zumal Haardüse und Lichtstrahl im Alltag echten Nutzen bringen. Der Haken: Mit 3,5 kg ist er schwer, und in einem Labortest schmolzen Gehäuse an den Akkukontakten – registriere die Garantie gleich nach dem Kauf.
Pros
- Sehr hohe Saugkraft, bis 99 % Schmutzaufnahme auf Teppich in Tests
- Grüner Lichtstrahl macht feinen Staub auf Hartboden sichtbar
- Haardüse und Motorbar-Walze bleiben weitgehend frei von aufgewickelten Haaren
- Fugendüse im Rohr integriert und immer griffbereit
- Im Eco-Modus rund 70 bis 76 min Laufzeit gemessen
- Wechselakku ohne Werkzeug abnehmbar
Cons
- Mit 3,5 kg schwer, als Handsauger 2,3 kg
- Boost-Modus hält nur 7 bis 15 min
- Ladezeit bis 4,5 h, kein Zweitakku im Lieferumfang
- Geschmolzene Akkukontakte bei zwei Geräten im Labor-Dauertest
- Steht nicht allein, Ein-Aus-Knopf nur mit zweiter Hand erreichbar
