Dyson Just Made a Wet Cleaner That Slides Under Your Sofa - Yanko Design
"Nobody has ever looked at a traditional mop and thought, "Yes, this is the peak of human ingenuity." Mopping has always been the cleaning task that feels like a punishment. You fill a bucket, push dirty water across the floor, realize the mop head smells suspect, and then spend the next 20 minutes waiting for everything to dry. It works, technically. But it's never been good. Dyson wants to change that conversation entirely with its newest launch, the PencilWash,"
"The PencilWash follows the same design philosophy as the PencilVac, Dyson's super-slim cordless vacuum that turned heads when it launched in 2025. The idea is simple but radical: what if cleaning tools didn't have to be bulky? The PencilWash takes that premise into wet cleaning territory with a 38mm-diameter handle, which, true to the name, is roughly the thickness of a pencil."
Dyson's PencilWash applies a 38mm pencil-thin handle and a lightweight 4.9-pound total weight with 0.8 pounds in the hand to make wet floor cleaning more maneuverable. The machine lays flat to 170 degrees and reaches under furniture with as little as 6 inches clearance, enabling cleaning beneath coffee tables, media consoles, and bed frames. The unit maneuvers along walls and skirting boards where many wet cleaners fail. The cleaning system combines hydration, agitation, and extraction. A high-density microfiber roller with 64,000 filaments per square centimeter spins at 650 RPM to pick up wet and dry debris simultaneously. The product targets everyday living spaces rather than showroom floors.
