Dyson’s new vacuum proves your kids are just plain slobs

Let’s be totally honest here: No one relishes vacuuming at all. It is a chore, no matter how you slice it. Still, it helps when you have a high-quality vacuum to do your dirty work (ha, get it?).

The new must-have device for your home is from Dyson, of course. Designed by 370 engineers around the world, the new Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum features cutting-edge technology to remove more dirt and more dust from your house. Want to know how it works and why you should consider splurging on this super-sleek fancy floor cleaner? Read on for the top details on the new Dyson. (We have honestly never been so excited to clean!)

The newest vacuum from Dyson

The Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum with laser-detect technology might just be the coolest and smartest piece of home-cleaning equipment. It is designed to detect and find hidden dust measuring as small as 10 microns. A green laser light makes these invisible particles identifiable on hard floors. Furthermore, according to the brand, it has “an acoustic piezo sensor to enable scientific proof” that dust has indeed been vacuumed up. In other words, you don’t have to just trust that it works. There is an actual LCD screen on the vacuum that shows the count of particles collected and the average size of them (the machine is perpetually calculating up to 15,000 times in a single second).

The vacuum uses a Hyperdymium motor that can produce 230 air watts of suction to clean more, clean faster, and clean better. In fact, when used in auto mode, the sensor will reactively increase suction when it identifies larger concentrations of dust. Moreover, it has multiple layers of filtration that work to suck up 99.99% of dust particles.

Another updated feature you will absolutely love? The anti-tangle hair screw. If you have ever spent hours unwrapping pet hair (or human hair!) from the brush of your vacuum, you will definitely appreciate the simple but nifty addition of 56 polycarbonate comb teeth; they work to prevent hair wrapping from happening in the first place.

Plus, the new Dyson line of vacuums features three size options to fit your home cleaning needs.

Should you get the new Dyson vacuum?

Ready to start your vacuum shopping? Here are some factors to consider:

  • If you suffer from dust allergies, the new Dyson vacuum is a no-brainer; the machine can visually show you how much dust you would have missed using other vacuums. Plus, you will get the satisfaction of knowing how many particles you have actually trapped!
  • The new Dyson is expensive — so if you are on a budget, you will want to weigh your options.

You have to clean — so you might as well make your household work a little easier, a bit more satisfying, and incredibly effective with the right tools. The new Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum will ensure your home is as dust-free as possible. A healthier home, a happier you (even if you are stuck doing the chores).

9 fun things to do at a sleepover: A checklist for your kids
Try these fun and entertaining sleepover activities for kids of any age
Kids at a sleepover

The time has come. You have agreed to let your child invite their friends to your home for a sleepover. Now, you need to figure out how to keep a group of kids entertained for the night. There's no need to start having a panic attack. It can be easy if you break down the activities a bit. If you need help with how to keep the kids occupied, we have a list of things to do at a sleepover, no matter what age group, so everyone is tuckered out by bedtime.
Food-related activities

Make your own pizza
Who would say no to pizza? Making your own pizza at home is easier than it seems. This way, each child can create their own. You know they will eat the whole thing because kids who help cook are more likely to eat the food. You could use English muffins, flatbread, mini bagels, or whatever else as the base and let the children pick their toppings.
Put together themed charcuterie boards
From holiday to movie themes, let the kids pick out what kind of charcuterie board they want to create and gather the ingredients. Children are so creative, and everyone will love to see what the finished projects look like. You could turn it into a contest and have everyone vote on their favorites, but any activity where you get to eat at the end is a winner for everyone.
Make baked goods
Have you been meaning to make those cookies for weeks? Well, make it a fun activity for the kids to do at the sleepover. Children love to bake and be in the kitchen, and it boosts their self-esteem, but the best part is everyone gets to enjoy the baked goods. If you have any of those themed cookbooks, let the kids pick out a couple of things to bake from there.
