Welcome to a new world of mopping options from Dyson.
After announcing several new models last year at IFA Berlin, Dyson has begun rolling out its latest suite of vacuums and wet floor cleaners to the public. Last week, Dyson’s newest robot vacuum, the Spot+Scrub Ai ($1,200), became available for purchase online, along with the Clean+Wash Hygiene ($500), one of the brand’s new wet floor cleaners. The recently announced Dyson PencilWash ($350) is available as of today.
It’s only the first of many Dyson launches we expect to see this year, but for those with hard floors that need a good scrub, all three of the above tools could be a good fit. WIRED will be testing each to see which ones are worth buying, but here’s a quick overview.
Wet Floor Wars
The Clean+Wash Hygiene ($500) is a new name, but a look we’ve seen before. It’s similar to the WashG1, which launched in 2024, with a cordless design focused entirely on cleaning hard floors with water. The Clean+Wash Hygiene tweaks the way debris is collected. It still has a dirty-water tank and a debris tray, but it keeps both in the head of the device rather than cycling dirty water back up into a separate tank on the cleaner. Disposal looks similar to the old device, with the user still needing to empty both the dirty water and the debris tray, but removal of these items can happen at the same time. The old model had the tank and tray in different parts of the vacuum. The Clean+Wash Hygiene dock also has a hot-air drying feature to dry the rollers, and a run time of 45 minutes—10 minutes more than the WashG1.
Meanwhile, the PencilWash ($350), a new, smaller wet floor cleaner announced last month, shares the same shape as the PencilVac that came out last year. The PencilWash is slim and lightweight, weighing just under 5 pounds, with a handle 1.5 inches in diameter. Small spaces are where it shines, and it lets you control how much water to use, so you can apply more on stains or on flooring types that need it. Like the PencilVac, the PencilWash has a run time of 30 minutes, but Dyson says the PencilWash’s 10-ounce water tank can still clean up to 1,076 feet of flooring. It’s not much less than the larger Clean+Wash, and I’m curious how the task of emptying the dirty water tank will compare.
Robo Game
Dyson’s newest robot vacuum and mop combo is now available as well. The Dyson Spot+Scrub Ai ($1,200) promises to spot hidden stains on your floors, similar to the Shark PowerDetect UV Reveal that came out earlier this month. As the name suggests, it uses Ai programming to spot these stains, along with what Dyson calls a “high-contrast green light” to reveal hidden stains. The vac-mop has a new wet roller that the robot also cleans with every rotation, and it’ll raise that wet roller when it moves onto carpets. Compared to the battery of the above wet floor cleaners, the Spot+Scrub is doing laps around them, with up to 200 minutes of run time. It’ll be an interesting model to test and compare to the latest robot vacuums, especially since Shark has made a similar product that can spot and scrub stains. I’m especially intrigued by the triple-canister base design.
