Dyson’s new wet floor cleaner improves on the last in these 3 important ways – I can’t wait to try it properly

• Dyson Clean+Wash Hygiene is a new wet floor cleaner that joins the WashG1
• It is one of the lightest wet cleaners on the market.
• There are no filters or dirty water pipes and it is self-drying for minimal maintenance.

Wet floor cleaners save a lot of effort when it comes to mopping, but sometimes appliance maintenance is demanding and unpleasant enough to barely be worth it, and Dyson is tackling the problem with its new wet floor cleaner.

The Clean+Wash Hygiene is an updated sister model to the Dyson WashG1, and improves on that device in three main ways, two of which address the maintenance side of things so it requires less hands-on time on your part. Let’s take a closer look…

1. There is no filter or tube to clean

For Clean+Wash Hygiene, the dirty water tank is completely integrated into the head itself. There is no filter or pipe so dirty water slowly clogs up. Keeping the internal mechanisms clean and fluid is one of the most important and complicated maintenance jobs associated with wet and dry vacuums, and Dyson has basically eliminated them entirely here.

The design of the WashG1 addresses this issue: integrated into the floor head is a filter to collect solid waste, so there’s no need to run through any tubing, and the dirty water tank is large and smooth inside, making it easy to reach in and properly clean as needed. But this new setup seems even simpler: there’s no filter to clean.
