I was specifically looking for a small cordless vacuum that I could use for my car. After researching various brands at various price points I settled for the Dyson V7. The Dyson V7 battery last longer than the V6 and the V7 is considerably cheaper than the V8 (in terms of battery life) so i felt the V7 was the best option. On standard vacuum mode I'd rate a 3. The suction isn't great and it seems to leave behind debris which you have to make multiple passes on a battery that last 30 minutes MAX. I feel like Dyson knew they couldn't market a 6-7 minute battery on its own so they added a standard mode to market 30 minutes. With that said, the turbo mode i'd rate a 5. It's FANTASTIC and cleans second to none! The only downside is the 6-7 minute MAX battery life. So id have to rate the overall rsting to a 4. If Dyson offered removable battery packs this would be a solid 5. Their R&D team dropped the ball imo. If you're looking for a small vacuum to use around the house or for your car this is it (As long as you're only cleaning out one or two cars).

This vacuum really helped with my needs. Some facts about this vacuum: - Its not very heavy and very easy to use and clean - Charging doesn't take a lot of time - On the lower settings, it does run for a long time - On the high settings, it runs for like 5 or 6 minutes Even though people complained about the performance issue with the high settings, that didn't bother me at all. I bought this vacuum because I need to vacuum my car and my apartment garage doesn't have a single plug anywhere near for a corded vacuum. And I usually brush the carpets of my car first and then vacuum so actually 5 minutes is more than enough time for me. Besides, the low setting does the job for things like the sofa and my house in general, especially with all the different headers the vacuum has, it makes the job easy. It does come with an extensor that helps to reach difficult places For my needs this vacuum was perfect, if you need high settings for a long period of time, battery vacuums are not there yet, sorry

I feel like i pretty much always have to run this on max to get sand/gravel out of my car's carpet. As a result I never have reached the quoted 27 mins runtime because thats with max switched off. That all said, this does work well on that setting and the included attachments all have a practical use, I switch between them all pretty much. I keep this vacuum in my car now in the trunk and it charges back there each time I use the car, so its basically always ready. If you use this vacuum often the battery life is adequate, but if you let it get too dirty, you'll likely run out of charge before you're done cleaning.
