A:AnswerSoft roller is good for hardwood floors. But v8 animal does not come with it but only with the regular head. So I’m not sure whether you have v8 animal or v8 absolute.
A:AnswerI do not know about additional attachments but I can tell you I use this on wood, time and carpet and have had no issues with marks on my wood floor.
A:AnswerGood question. After only two uses ours no longer charges either. The blue charge light comes on the docking station, but yet it never charges. Well, it holds a 2 second charge.
A:AnswerThe docking/charging station must be plugged into the wall so presumably the country is just referring to that outlet plug. The handheld detached from the stick, the stick is also detachable from the beater on the floor. I think the stick is about 2.5-3ft long, it’s easy to switch attachments
A:AnswerWhen using our cordless Dyson V8 Animal, we have to maintain a finger on the trigger for it to stay on. I'm guessing that having some type of "auto hold" option may affect the process of emptying the canister.
A:AnswerHi Pat, this is Krystal with Dyson. Thank you for your interest in the Dyson V8 Animal. This vacuum includes a direct drive cleaner head which is designed for use on most common floor types and is especially great for carpet.
Best Wishes,
Krystal
