"With a diameter of 38mm and a weight of 1.8kg, this is Dyson's slimmest design ever."

British home appliance company Dyson unveiled its new cordless vacuum cleaner, the "Pencilvac Fluffycon Vacuum Cleaner," at a launch show held on the morning of the 26th at Musinsa Square in Seongdong-gu, Seoul. Tom Moody, Head of Dyson Home Category, explained, "It is very lightweight, has excellent performance, and can quickly and easily clean long hair without tangling."

This new product features the "Fluffycon Head," which is Dyson's first to be equipped with four conical nylon brushes. Unlike conventional flat-shaped vacuum heads, the conical head is sloped, allowing hair to be quickly sucked in without getting caught on the head. Therefore, Dyson explained that there is no need to cut or pull out tangled hair from the vacuum head.

On the front and back of the Fluffycon Head, there are two conical nylon brushes each. The four cone brushes, which become narrower toward the ends, push hair to both sides during cleaning, preventing hair from tangling in the brushes and enabling effective cleaning. The nylon brushes extend all the way to the sides of the head, allowing for thorough cleaning even in wall corners or edges that are difficult to reach with regular vacuums.

Additionally, the nylon brushes extend to the sides of the Fluffycon Head, ensuring that even the edges are not missed during cleaning. The illumination LEDs, installed at the front and back of the head, emit a green light that makes it easy to spot and thoroughly vacuum even fine dust on wooden floors.

In particular, the flexible steering feature allows for free movement across the floor, enabling thorough cleaning with minimal effort. Its light weight ensures smooth maneuverability and makes it possible to vacuum dust even in corners.

The handle of the main body has a diameter of 38mm and a weight of 1.8kg, making it the slimmest design among all Dyson products. Nathan Lawson McLean, Senior Engineering Manager at Dyson, emphasized, "To achieve this slim design, we equipped it with Dyson's fastest vacuum motor, the new Hyperdymium motor," adding, "The size of this motor is only as large as a 500-won coin."

James Dyson, the founder and chief engineer of Dyson, stated, "Developing a slim vacuum cleaner with a diameter of just 38mm has been a longstanding challenge for Dyson. The 38mm diameter is the same thickness as Dyson's smallest and lightest professional hair dryer, the Supersonic r Professional Hair Dryer," and added, "To achieve this, we developed a new ultra-compact Hyperdymium motor with a diameter of 28mm."

The dustbin has been designed smaller to match the slim design. However, unlike previous dustbins, it uses a compression method to store more dust than its actual capacity. In particular, Dyson applied its "cyclone technology," which allows the dustbin to be pushed deep into the trash can for emptying, so the user can empty the bin without touching dust with their hands.

The Pencilvac is the first Dyson vacuum cleaner to be compatible with its proprietary app, "MyDyson." By connecting to the app, users can check additional product maintenance and care methods, such as when to replace the filter, helping to maintain optimal device performance for longer. The built-in LCD display on the main unit also allows users to intuitively check the cleaning mode and remaining battery life.

To commemorate the launch of the Pencilvac, Dyson is holding a consumer pop-up event at "Musinsa Square Seongsu 4" in Seongsu-dong until the 28th. Applications for the experience event can be made via KakaoTalk Reservation or Dyson's official Instagram. The Pencilvac vacuum cleaner is available on the official Dyson website, Dyson stores, and Dyson outlets at department stores nationwide, with a launch price of 799,000 won.
