Our Verdict

Dyson V15 Detect

LG CordZero A9 [A916, A916BM]

The Dyson V15 Detect is slightly better than the LG CordZero A9. The Dyson incurs virtually no recurring costs, has a larger dustbin, and features an automatic suction power adjustment feature. It also performs notably better on bare floors and carpets. Conversely, higher-end LG variants come with a second battery that gives it a longer overall runtime.
