Powerful wet and dry cordless cleaning

This Dyson V16 Piston Animal Submarine™ cordless vacuum is built to tackle dry dust, debris and wet messes in one streamlined system. Use the main All Floors Cones™ Sense cleaner head for deep dry cleaning across carpets and hard floors, then swap to the Submarine™ 2.0 wet roller head to wash sealed hard floors, removing everyday spills, muddy footprints and stubborn stains with ease.

Deep cleaning across all floor types

The auto‑adaptive cleaner head senses different floor types and adjusts for effective pick‑up on carpets, rugs and hard floors. The dual conical design and anti‑tangle technology work together to de‑wrap long hair and pet hair from the brush bar, helping to maintain suction and reduce maintenance, even in homes with multiple pets.

Up to 70 minutes of fade‑free runtime

With up to 70 minutes of runtime in Eco mode with a non‑motorised tool, the Dyson V16 Piston Animal Submarine™ is engineered for whole‑home cleans. Intelligent power management optimises energy use, while Boost mode is available when you need maximum suction for stubborn dirt or deep‑pile carpets.

Illumination for a more thorough clean

Selected cleaner heads feature illumination technology that helps reveal fine dust and particles you would usually miss on hard floors. By making invisible dirt visible, you can confidently clean more precisely along skirting boards, under furniture and in high‑traffic areas.

Ideal for homes with pets

Designed with pet owners in mind, the Dyson V16 Piston Animal Submarine™ easily tackles embedded pet hair on carpets, sofas and pet beds. The long hair de‑tangling cleaner head, combined with specialised tools such as the Hair Screw Tool 2.0, targets fur on upholstery, stairs and car interiors without wrapping around the brush.

Advanced whole‑machine filtration

Multi‑stage filtration captures fine dust and particles from the air that passes through the vacuum, helping to improve the cleanliness of your home environment. Clean air is then expelled back into the room, supporting a fresher, more hygienic living space for families and pet owners.

Compressing bin with hygienic emptying

The new compressing bin compacts dust, hair and debris so it can hold up to 30 days’ worth of typical dirt before emptying, depending on usage. When it’s full, the hygienic wipe‑clean design allows you to eject contents with minimal dust contact, then quickly wipe down the bin to keep the vacuum looking and performing at its best.

Cordless versatility and handheld mode

The Dyson V16 Piston Animal Submarine™ quickly converts to a handheld vacuum for cleaning stairs, cars, mattresses and above‑floor areas. Its balanced, ergonomic design makes it easy to lift and manoeuvre around furniture, while multiple attachments allow you to clean every corner of your home without the restriction of a cord.
