The Dyson WashG1 wet floor cleaner is finally available in the US – but read this before you shell out


The WashG1 is a dedicated wet floor cleaner and Dyson’s first attempt to prove that it doesn’t just do carpets. It launched in the UK and Australia last month but has just gone on sale in the US. It’s currently only available to buy direct from Dyson, and has a list price of $699.99.

Unclutch those pearls; we all knew it was going to be expensive. I do think that some Dyson products justify their eye-watering price tags, but in this case, there are things worth factoring in before you decide to gamble your child’s college fund on a wet floor cleaner.

I tested one out and you can get the full low-down in my Dyson WashG1 review, but the gist is that it works fantastically well on perfectly smooth, flat floors like linoleum or polished concrete but is nowhere near as impressive on textured or uneven floors (including tiled floors with grouting gaps).

This is Dyson’s first dedicated wet floor cleaner (I say ‘dedicated’ because we do have the Dyson V15s Submarine, which is a vacuum cleaner with a wet floorhead that can be swapped in). Significantly for this brand, which has built its reputation on being really good at moving air about, it doesn’t use suction. Instead, it employs a combination of agitation, hydration and separation to get your floors gleaming.
