    I should have stuck with the full size wired vacuum. This one doesnt last that long before needing a recharge. Its not easy to reach high places

    Hands down. This is the best vacuum I’ve ever used. It’s got so much consistent suction that you can feel it hugging the floors and picking up the carpet. It is a beast and I love it.

    Bought this model because it was newer. Thought was that the battery charge would last however, after a few months the charge vrs usage gets shorter and shorter as time goes. Now we are lucky to get a full minute or two out of a charge. Doesn't matter how long it's been on the charger. The batteries are trash on the Dyson's. Other than the battery issues it's a good product. Too bad I can't use it that often.

      Hello, this is Summer with Dyson. We're so sorry to hear that you are experiencing low run times with your V8. Your Dyson V8 cordless offers two powerful suction modes - regular and MAX. MAX provides a boost of suction for larger debris or more stubborn messes. This mode should not be utilized for your everyday cleaning, as it will only give you about 7 minutes of run time. Regular suction is generally suitable for every household, and gives up to 40 minutes of run time (30 when using a motorized tool). If you feel that your V8 might be malfunctioning, we do offer a two-year warranty on this product. Just reach out to our customer support at askdysonUS@dyson.com so we can help.

      Best wishes,
      Summer

    I love this vacuum. Most of the time I'm only using it as a small hand held device to suck up small spills in the kitchen or to cleaning cobwebs out of corners. I wish the battery life on Dyson products was better, but it charges quickly.

    Great Cordless Vacuum

    This Dyson vacuum worked great on my carpet. The only flaw is that the battery only lasts about 20-30 mins on the max setting before it needs to be charged. Wish the battery was longer but it still a great vacuum.

    I don’t feel like it should be as pricey as it is because to me it does nothing special !! Compared to other vacuums but I don’t like it has a smell coming from it and the container to hold the dirt is really small !

      Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you've been disappointed, thus far in your use, with your Dyson V8 Animal. Instances may sometimes occur when the filter on the vacuum may catch a smell of what is being vacuumed. Sometimes smells can occur if the filter is left wet or damp and put back into the vacuum too soon. We would be more than happy to go over your machine with you, more in depth, and to provide you with support. Please feel free to reach out to us at [email protected], and we will be in touch.

      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    First Dyson I've ever owned. Works great on my tile, literally useless on my rugs. just plugs up the roller instantly, and stops till you cycle the motor on and off. battery is a bit short lived, but cleans well

    I upgraded my old v6 cordless Dyson vacuum to this version and it is so much better. The suction is more powerful and the brush head is much more efficient. It last a bit longer than my old one too. I can easily vacuum 1000 sq ft without it losing power. We will see how it continues to perform over time.

    Good quality and powerful for a small vacuum. It has good cordless battery power so we can use it for quite awhile without having to recharge right away.

    This vacuum is really powerful. Best vacuum design I ever tried and bought in the past compared with the other brands in the market. It’s price is high though. But it should be worth it cause it functions very good.

    I was skeptical at first purchasing this cord-free vacuum but head down to its performance - it has such a power that it lifts the rug when passing the vacuum. I am in love with Dyson! Makes my love so much easier to clean.

    Dyson; worth the money

    I bought a Hoover product because I didn't think the Dyson was worth the money. I was wrong. The Hoover dirt cup was difficult to get back on and I had to stick my hand up in the cup to get rid of all the pet fur. When I vacuumed the bare floor, then went to vacuum a carpet rug, all of the pet fur from the hard surface stuck to the carpet rug. No attachments. No way to use as a hand-held vacuum. No charging dock. Could not vacuum under the beds. The Dyson is wonderful. No problems with the above mentioned disappointments in the Hoover brand. Seriously worth the money. I loved it the very first time I used it.
