Dyson's CameraJet toothbrush, which combines a camera-guided water flossing jet with brushing, launched in US stores on September 8 but was pulled within days after buyers reported water leaking into the battery compartment.

Dyson has released three new robot vacuums under its Nurovi line: the R1 Nurovi Dry ($550), R2 Nurovi Wash + Dry ($700), and R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub UV ($1,200).
