Dyson Articulating Hard Floor Tool
Dyson Articulating Hard Floor Tool is a Dyson hardwood floor attachment specially designed for cleaning hard floors like tile, marble, laminate, hardwood, and similar.
The hardwood floor tool is very simple to use – just connect it to the stretch hose or extension/telescopic wand and use it as and when required.

The tool comes with soft nylon bristles, which help gently remove the dust off the floor. Actually, the tool has two curtains (two rows) of bristles – the first helps remove large debris, while the second seals the tool and the floor to prevent suction loss. Of course, one has to use a vacuum cleaner with good suction.
The tool’s ultra-slim profile and swivel mechanism enable the tool to reach into awkward gaps, under furniture, in the corners, around the edges and similar.
The tool is just under 12 inches (30.5 cm) wide, enabling the user to cover a rather large area quickly – just be sure not to clean too quickly, especially when cleaning heavy messes.
This is because the outer bristle row, which comes first in contact with the debris, is 50% bristles and 50% gap – such design helps in lifting larger debris off the floor, but it also makes some dirt gets pushed in front of the tool, requiring push-pull motion when cleaning.
Dyson Articulating Hard Floor Tool's maximum height is only 2 inches (~5 cm), allowing it to clean under low beds, sofas, and similar objects.
The tool is very sturdy and well built, but some users find it a little bit pricey; but considering that this is a Dyson OEM product that is built to last, it comes at a rather acceptable price.
According to Dyson's Dyson Articulating Hard Floor Tool support page, this tool (Part no. 920019-01) fits all Dyson upright and canister vacuum cleaners and Dyson V6 Cordless Stick Vacuum.
Dyson Articulating Hard Floor Tool is not directly compatible with Dyson V7, Dyson V8, Dyson V10, Dyson V11, Dyson V12, and Dyson V15 - in order to use Dyson Articulating Hard Floor Tool on these newer units, one has to use a third-party adapter which Dyson does not officially support.
For newer Dyson cordless vacuums, Dyson recommends Dyson Fluffy Soft Roller Cleaner Head, which is a specially designed hardwood floor attachment - each Dyson cordless cleaner comes with its own tool, so be careful when choosing the right one.
