    After reading reviews I was concerned about battery life but it hasn’t been a problem. Picks up a ton of yucky stuff from the carpet and makes you realize what a sub optimal flooring option it is. But if you have it, this is the tool too keep it clean!

    This vaccum is a but pricey for the quality of it. It doesn't last very long and the suction isn't that great. It can't pickup a potato chip sometimes. The suction port is too small that it gets stuck very often.

      Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. I'm sorry to hear that you've encountered short run time and a lack of suction with your Dyson V6 Animal. If you are noticing regular clogging or a lack of pick-up in your machine, it can certainly be a result of a dirty filter or an existing obstruction that is causing poor airflow. We find problems like this can be easily resolved with simple, yet effective troubleshooting. Please also keep in mind that your V6 comes with two suction modes, max and regular. While in Max power, you'll receive a boost of power and suction for more stubborn messes, or larger debris.

      I’m also happy to inform you that the cleaner head of the Dyson V6 Animal is designed to maintain optimum contact with flooring to help ensure the best performance across both hard floors and carpet. We designed the crevice and combination tools with this in mind. If you find something like cereal too large to fit under the cleaning head, use of the wand end with one of the aforementioned attachments is recommended prior to making a pass with your cleaner head. We would value the opportunity to learn more about your experience with your Dyson product. Please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]. We are keen on providing you with support. 

      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    Wow, I can not say enough good things about this vacuum. This is my 3rd Dyson I purchased from Best Buys Deal of the Day(different floors of the house) and my favorite because of the ability to use it on furniture, drapes, baseboards and stairs. Great vacuum!

    Works well when it's working. Can only vacuum 1-2 areas on a charge. Takes a while to recharge. After 11 months, it's dead and I haven't had time to call support yet.

    I don't know if I could use this to vacuum the whole house, but when I do one room it works great. Used it both on hardwood floors and carpet. My only "negative" comment would be the vacuum base has room for 2 tools but come with 4 (??)

    Every rating I saw said this was the handheld vac to get and were they ever right. Easy to handle, care for and clean - it is amazing. I will never go back to a large model when I can get better performance from a unit the weighs less than half as much.

    This is our second Dyson. We still have and use our short hand held unit but wanted a unit with a longer attachment and "broom" feature. This is great for moving around the house quickly. The battery life is better than I anticipated!

    The Dyson - V6 Animal Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum maneuvers well in tight spaces. The suction is acceptable in forward movement, but the vacuum sometimes fails to pick up light-weight paper fragments in the backward movement.

    Very powerful vacuum but the battery doesnt last long enough to vacuum whole house. Becomes a little frustrating when you have to stop vacuuming to charge the battery, other than that it is a great vacuum.

      Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. Thank you for your review of the Dyson V6 Animal Cord free vacuum. Dyson V6 cordless vacuum cleaners have a run-time enhancing trigger. Battery power is only used when the trigger is pushed – it is not wasted when moving from room to room, or moving around obstacles. All of our cordless units do come switched on to MAX mode out of the box, otherwise, when not set to MAX mode, a full charge gives 20 minutes of fade free power or 17 minutes when using the motorized floor tool.

      Please keep in mind that the V6 offers plenty of suction on normal power to effectively clean your floors because of the motorized brush bar. Especially when used on bare floors as the MAX power is really only needed for tougher jobs and thicker carpeting. The V6 is intended for quick pick ups in between normal cleanings and if you prefer a longer run time, we would recommend one of our compact uprights or canister models. We would like to ensure that your vacuum is performing as intended. Please feel free to reach out to [email protected]. We are keen on providing support.

      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    I have Hard Wood Floor / Tile and Carpet mix. This unit sucks it all up. Very Happy with this purchase. It is so easy to grab and do a quick job on the main areas of the house runs on turbo for about 20 minutes. No cords to drag...it rocks!!

    Battery stopped working after 3 months of pretty limited usage. Even with good battery the limited life span is just a huge pain. The dirt container is small and hard to clean. It doesn't seem build for longevity.

    This did a great job of vacuuming up all the dog hair in my car - on the seats, in between them, on the carpet/floors! Also does great in the house - especially on the hard wood floors/tile. So-so on the carpet, but if I need to vacuum the carpet, I use the larger vacuum.

    Dyson products cost more, but do what the say. I bought the V6 stick animal vacuum, because we have 2 cats and 1 dog. They like to play around a lot and that leaves hair. This picks the hair up good and don't have to get the big sweeper out.

    I have a one bedroom apartment and a dog and the vaccuum itself works great. What I wasnt happy about was that Dyson couldnt provide two screws for the wall mount. Im glad I got this on sale because I would have been extra aggravated. Two screws? Really?

    We have a lab and this works so much better on capturing all the dog hair. Sweeping seems to just send it flying and this is perfect! It is super light and the wall-mounted charging dock is the best. This is great for wood/tile floors!

      Hi there, this is Krystal with Dyson. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on the Dyson V6 Animal. The V6 is great for in between cleanings, quick clean ups or small areas as it does feature 20 minutes of constant suction in standard mode and 6 minutes on MAX power for tougher jobs.

    Picks up great, on all surfaces and is likely to become a job I don't hate anymore. Buy one. The only drawback is how expensive it is and I deducted two stars for that alone... It is out of reach (price wise) for most people.
