      Hello Mariah, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you're beginning to have battery issues with your Dyson V8 Animal. While we can't guarantee a lifespan for the battery due to varying factors, I can confirm that we would generally expect the battery to outlast the free 2-year guarantee provided with all new machines purchased from an authorized retailer. While we don't expect problems to occur, the guarantee is in place to help protect against any problems that may ever arise or come up with a new purchase. I'm also happy to share that we do also have many happy cordless Dyson owners who are still enjoying some of our earlier models today.

      We'd value the opportunity to learn more about your experience with your machine to help ensure that you are able to enjoy your machine as intended. Please consider emailing us directly at [email protected]. We look forward to hearing from you.

      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    I usually buy cheaper vacuums and was against expensive items I thought was nonsense. I decided to give this vacuum a try and perhaps I would have regretted it after buying it. I think you get what you pay for with this vacuum. Great vacuum and have the needed HEPA filters for my allergies. It is light, range of motion is great, and vacuuming power is superb for a cordless.

    Best vacuum I have ever owned. I struggled with paying this price, but after using it, often, I am happy with the purchase. It is the easiest vacuum to use, easiest to empty, it makes the job or vacuuming better. That alone was worth it. And it cleans better than any vacuum I have ever used.

    Best vacuum I’ve ever owned! The attachments are very practical and it is easy to use and empty. I’ll never buy another corded vacuum. This is actually my second purchase of this vacuum. Best Buy’s price was much higher than what I paid at Lowe’s 2 years ago but I wasn’t able to find it anywhere else.

    Stands up to the test of time. I use this, my wife uses this, hell our kids use this. From carpet to hardwood this hoover gets it all. Max mode is like a jet engine. Ours has been slammed, dropped, you name it and it stands strong. No issues, no cracks, it is just a beast.

    I wished I would have bought this sooner. I use it on hardwood floors, tiles and throw rugs and it works awesome. I thought I wouldn't like the fact that you need to hold the button for it to work but I've found its easier turning it on and off. I haven't ran it long enough to test exactly how long the battery will last but it's lasted long enough for what I've needed to do every time.

    We were very skeptical about buying a cordless vacuum cleaner. We always worry about the suction power and the length of time it would allow us to clean before it dies. We were impressed with both the suction power and length of the charge. We have a dog that sheds a lot and a cat and it works wonderfully. We bought it on sale so it was a great value.
