Dyson - V7 Trigger Cordless Hand Vac - Iron/Nickel

After a year of owning this thing I can confidently say that the Dyson V7 Trigger is a solid product. It hasn't failed me yet. It operates with the same reliability and power as the day I brought it home. I am even more happy with it now as this product is discontinued and there is still no updated handheld vacuum from Dyson. Even a year later I am still thrilled with the suction power of this unit. To have this kind of power with a handheld unit is very satisfying. Another aspect of the V7 Trigger that is still holding up is the rechargeable battery. Since the battery can't be replaced (unless you take it apart and know what you're doing) one must really on a battery to hold a reliable charge. While using the max suction setting, I can still get a reasonable 8 to 10 minutes. With this kind of power, that is fine enough for me. Overall this is a great handheld vacuum. If you can find one brand new still in the box somewhere, buy it. If you can find a gently-used, well-taken-care-of unit, consider picking one up. I am taking one star off because the battery is hard-wired into the vac and it doesn't really have any filtration system. It's pretty standard but it is not a sealed system at all.

This is a really nice vacuum, the only thing is that the other Dyson handheld vac I had before this one (if I remember correctly) was the car/boat version and had great suction power on its low setting. That same suction that I was expecting is actually the max power setting for this particular version. So, the regular suction is kinda poor...but the max suction more than holds its own vs. other handheld vacs (although it is only for a short period of time). It's also great peace of mind knowing that there isn't a bag that I have to keep buying every so often. It just says that you have to wash the filter every month or so and let it dry for 24 hrs.

Great little vacuum except doesn't hold a long charge...maybe 15mins and battery stopped charging after 2 years...make sure you buy the protection plan.

We had an original model for years and it has become an essential tool. Had to replace the battery once. Recently, the trigger stopped working correctly and we decided it was time to replace the entire unit. Of course the trigger on the old one started to work perfectly again once the new unit arrived! We will keep both. The 7 is a significant redesign. From what I have seen, I’m not certain the canister dump and cleaning is better. It seems more complex and with possibly more opportunity for a part to break. Time will tell.

Asked for and received for Christmas. This thing works great the beater brush is motor driven. Make sure to fully change it before your first use. I am able to vacuum a Yukon and a Yukon xl both with cloth interior and then move to the house and vacuum two couches and a flight of stairs before it quit. I figured it gave me about 40 minutes of runtime which was great.

I boughtvthis dyson to clean my i terior of my cars, for the reson being not to get tge big shop vac out, this dyson does not take up much space and definitely does help cleaning the interior of the car.

I purchased a Dyson hand vac about 7 years ago for my 2nd floor area and the black & decker for my first floor. The Black & Decker last 5 years, however the Dyson is like new. I have now purchase the newer version of the Dyson for the replacement.

Knowing how much I love my Dyson upright vacuum that I have had for 10 years, it was time to try the Dyson hand vac to use in some of those nooks & crannies of the house & a quick car vacuum. Suction is excellent, weight is great, standard Dyson press & click works perfect, no bags & maintenance instructions to clean parts is easy to follow. Yes, you pay a bit extra for a Dyson product, but it's always worth it for its quality and how long their products last!
