CLEANING
You might have a ‘smart’ home, but nobody’s going to be impressed if they’re up to their knees in dust, pizza-crust debris and dog hair
THE HI-TECH HOOVER
The Dyson 360 Vis Nav brings an evolution of Dyson's 360° vision system. The camera on top assesses its surroundings to build a map of your home; once that's complete, you're able to easily define zones then clean one or more of them at a time - just choose where and how in the app (you can schedule as well, as you'd expect). An LED light means it can navigate when there's no light on, and this is also used to shine into gloomy corners. The cleaner can be used with Alexa or Google Assistant; we're surprised Dyson hasn't launched Apple Home compatibility for its products, but you can use Siri Shortcuts.

As you'll know if you read our Inside Tech column on the development of this robot in the December 2023 issue, Dyson has put many years of work into the Vis Nav. It's only the third Dyson robot vac to ship in over 20 years' worth of work in autonomous cleaners, and the company's first in a D-shape.
The result is a robot that borrows a lot from Dyson's premium stick vacs - including most (but not all) of their suction power. There are four cleaning modes, and the bin is housed under the familiar cyclones within the grey circular bit you can see on the top-it detaches easily and pops open with a press. The grey rectangle is a removable washable filter, and the screen (which is also a button) makes operation straightforward and intuitive.
