Who the Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is for

Buy it if: Flats and smaller homes where 20 to 30 minutes of cordless cleaning covers the floor area.

Avoid it if: Large houses needing an hour of continuous powered cleaning in one go.

Who the Faber 60cm 1200 m3/hr Auto-Clean Chimney is for

Buy it if: Anyone with a kitchen around 20 cubic metres who can duct to an external wall.

Avoid it if: Anyone who cannot duct outside -- recirculating a chimney through a carbon filter removes very little Indian cooking smoke.
