My office always has a new cordless stick vacuum next to my desk, waiting for me to test it and compare it to the competition.The latest in the wings? Bosch's new vacuum featured at this year's CES. The Bosch Unlimited 10 (699) stands out for incorporating two features from two popular vacuum brands: Dyson and Shark. The Unlimited 10 can fold in the middle of the long stick that connects the head to the motor, as a Shark PowerDetect can, and it has a compression lever for the dustbin to compress debris, like the new Dyson Piston Animal will when it launches this year. The Bosch also offers six power levels, with three specialty levels (quiet, car, and delicate carpet) on top of the classic automatic, eco, and turbo levels we see on the Shark and Dyson.With the new vacuum in my home, along with a Shark PowerDetect (300) and Dyson Gen5 Detect (922), it was the perfect opportunity to see if the new Bosch can stand up to the competition. While the Dyson Gen5 Detect doesn't have the compression bin, I was curious how the Bosch would compare, given it has a price tag closer to a Dyson. Could this be the new leader of the cordless stick vacuum pack?Ultimately, Bosch trailed both Dyson and Shark in most challenges, and I was frustrated to see it dump debris three times during the tests. Here's how each of my tests went and which vacuum pulled ahead.Table of ContentsAccordio
