Touted as the “world’s most powerful robot vacuum”, Dyson’s 360 Vis Nav is finally available to purchase in Canada and the United States.
Along with an extremely powerful Dyson Hyperdymium motor that spins at 110,000rpm, the 360 Vis Nav is loaded with features that have been missing on other robot vacuums, like a new full-width triple-action brush bar for cleaning all types of floors.

Other features on the 360 Vis Nav include a 360-degree vision system that gives the robot a panoramic view of its surroundings, a side edge actuator to redirect suction to the side when close to walls and furniture, and the ability to climb 21mm so it has no problems moving between rooms.
“A robot vacuum cleaner should not be a novelty. We know there are many frustrations with current robot vacuum cleaners – some have low suction power, some add additional functionality that compromises the vacuum performance, and others may have inefficient navigation systems that often get stuck and don’t do a proper job of vacuuming,” said Jake Dyson, Chief Engineer.
Full features of the Dyson 360 Vis Nav
- Dyson Hyperdymium motor: Spins at up to 110,000rpm to deliver the most powerful suction of any robot. Ten cyclones create forces of 100,000g to capture dust from the airflow, so there’s no loss of suction as the robot cleans your home.
- 360-degree vision system: Remembers where it’s been and sees where to clean. Its high-level processor rapidly maps and remembers where it’s been, and 26 sensors avoid obstacles.
- Piezo sensor: Detects and reacts to changes in dust levels. In Auto mode a Piezo sensor monitors dust levels 15,000 times a second to detect invisible particles invisible to the human eye, automatically increasing suction power where needed.
- Edge cleaning: Automatically cleans edges and corners. Sensors detect the edges of a room to redirect suction through a side -actuator. The D-shaped body and a full-width front-mounted brush bar help it reach into corners.
- Smart home connectivity with the MyDyson app: The MyDyson app can be used to create and customize zones, schedule cleans, set rules and routines, and control via voice control.
- Deep cleaning reports: Maps dust hotspots throughout your home, automatically increasing suction power when needed. Then through the MyDyson app, provides scientific proof of a deep clean.
- Software updates: Keep up to date with the latest functionality and features. The robot will automatically receive software updates over Wi-Fi.
- Triple-action brush bar: Dyson’s first brush bar to combine three ways to deep clean: soft nylon for large debris pick up on hard floors; anti-static carbon fibre filaments for fine dust pick up on hard floors; and stiff nylon bristles to dig into carpets.
- Pet-friendly cleaning: Wide diameter brush bar is engineered to reduce tangling. HEPA filtration captures pet dander and other allergens. It also features a Quiet mode for pet-friendly cleaning.
- Whole machine HEPA filtration: Dyson’s fully sealed HEPA filtration system traps dust and seals in 99.99% of microscopic particles as small as 0.1 microns.
- Four cleaning modes: Auto mode to analyze dust levels and automatically optimize suction power; Quick mode to top-up cleaning for open areas; Quiet mode for quieter cleans and longer run time; and Boost mode for maximum suction and a deeper clean.
- Hygienic one-handed bin emptying: One-touch ejection mechanism drives out dirt at the press of a button.
- Runtime: Up to 65 minutes of run time before automatically recharging, ready to clean again.
(All claims on features above supplied by Dyson).
One feature the 360 Vis Nav is missing is the ability to self-empty itself like the Shark IQ robot vacuum has. There are also some privacy concerns over the 360-degree vision system that might scare off some customers. Whether the other features it offers will make up for these issues we won’t know until we get our hands on one to test.
The Dyson 360 Vis Nav is available to purchase now on dysoncanada.ca for $1,499.99.
