Dyson’s First Wet Vacuum Just Launched, and We Can’t Wait to Get Our Hands on One
Published on Oct. 17, 2024
Since owning my Dyson cordless vacuum, I have been a firm believer that Dyson makes some of the absolute best stick vacuums out there. Dyson vacuums are popular (and pricey) for a reason. They have impressive cleaning power and advanced technological features. Plus, they’re easy to operate and maneuver. Now, whenever Dyson drops a product, my Spidey senses tingle.
Knowing just how good Dyson vacuums really are from personal experience, I was eager to learn more about their latest floor-cleaning device: The WashG1, Dyson’s first wet floor cleaner. You heard correctly: This new device tackles wet (and dry) debris in one go. Knocked over a bowl of cereal? No problem. The WashG1 can take care of it. All of it.
What is the Dyson WashG1?
The latest from Dyson floor care technology, the WashG1 is designed to clean wet and dry messes on hard floors, specifically across large spaces of tile, laminate, vinyl and sealed wood floors. Its 27-ounce clean water tank covers up to 3,100 square feet, and the device runs up to 35 minutes on one charge.

The WashG1 cleans floors using a combination of hydration, absorption and extraction. It automatically separates dry debris from wet for no-touch waste removal. Here’s how it works: Two motorized microfiber rollers at the back and front of the machine counter-rotate to simultaneously remove wet and dry messes. The rollers flush with clean water throughout the process so as not to spread dirty messes across the floor. The device has the classic Dyson maneuverability to glide around furniture effortlessly.
You can adjust the hydration level on the WashG1 depending on what you’re cleaning. For instance, light spills and debris only require level one hydration, while sticky spills and mud might need level three.
After you’ve finished cleaning, simply dump the dirty water tank (it’s easy to remove, and you don’t have to touch the dirty water) and empty the debris tray into the trash. The debris tray is quickly removed with the touch of a button and has a no-touch, hygienic emptying mechanism. When it’s back on its dock, the WashG1 charges and cleans itself by flushing its system. It will be ready to go again in a little over two minutes for your next clean.
And, to prove Dyson has thought of everything with this cleaning machine, it’s designed without sharp internal crevices to help reduce buildup inside the machine.
