Our Verdict

Dyson V11

LG CordZero A9 [A916, A916BM]

The Dyson V11 and the LG CordZero A9 each have their advantages, so one may suit you better than the other, depending on your needs. The Dyson has fewer parts that require regular maintenance, incurs virtually no recurring costs, has a larger dustbin, and has a surface-type adjustment feature. It also performs better on bare floors and high-pile carpets. Conversely, the LG weighs less, and you can buy a bundle with a second battery that effectively doubles its runtime.
