Dyson Expands Its Pencil Line With The Ultra-Slim PencilWash Cleaner Following the launch of its remarkably slim PencilVac last year, Dyson is applying the same design philosophy to wet cleaning. The company has unveiled the PencilWash, positioning it as the world’s slimmest wet floor cleaner. Dyson promises this new tool offers a lighter, slimmer, and smaller solution for cleaning floors without sacrificing hygiene. The goal is to make wet cleaning less of a hassle, allowing users to reach everywhere that needs attention. True to its Pencil namesake, the handle maintains a consistent diameter of just 1.5 inches from top to bottom. The entire unit is lightweight, weighing just over 2 kilograms. This ultra-thin construction is the core feature. The cleaner can lie almost completely flat on the floor. This enables it to slide deep into tight corners and under low furniture like sofas and cabinets, areas where bulkier traditional mops and machines often cannot reach. The slender profile also makes for easier storage, a significant advantage for those living in compact homes or apartments. Functionally, Dyson states the PencilWash is designed to apply only fresh water to floors during cleaning. The company claims it can swiftly tackle spills and stains and that floors will dry quickly afterward. It uses a high-density microfiber roller that is intended to pick up both wet and dry debris in a single pass. Dyson also highlights that the device lacks a traditional filter system. This design choice aims to eliminate concerns about dirt becoming trapped within the machine or unpleasant odors developing over time. The cleaner includes a user interface with power buttons and a screen positioned above them to display the remaining battery level. For convenience, the handle is designed to slot into a dedicated charging dock when not in use, keeping it ready for the next cleaning session. The Dyson PencilWash will carry a price tag of 349 dollars. An official release date for the product has not yet been announced.
