This vacuum cleaner is a great purchase. The pros of this model by Dyson are the compact size of the vacuum, the myriad of attachments, the suction on max suction, the fact that it is cordless, and the weight. The cons, however, are the short battery life and the long charge time. There is a considerable difference between the two suction modes. The first mode, which makes the vacuum run for 40 minutes, barely has any suction. I find myself going over the same area twice. However now I just turn the knob to max suction which is more efficient and I find that this level is really powerful. I find the difference in these settings a little troubling. Also, the short battery life on this vacuum is terrible. My drone for instance, the Mavic Pro, has more watt-hours in the battery than there are on this Dyson. Also, the battery on my drone charges in a 1/5 of the time. Dyson has the room to make the battery accommodate about 15 more watt-hours and could redesign the charger so it charges in an hour and half. I guess that is the drawback when you have a cordless vacuum. The vacuum itself is less cumbersome but at the same time, you cannot vacuum indefinitely like you can with a cord vacuum.

Love our new vacuum. Cordless gives it that total ease of use, and with our dog that sheds a lot, this machine is perfect for us. No hair, clogs, easy rechargeable hanger, so that it is always ready when needed. Very satisfied.

New best friend. With all the accessories, I can clean all the hard-to-reach places that the hose on my vacuum cleaner. I use it for high up places, behind my dresser, dusting all the baseboards, and under the bed. I highly recommend this for your regular household chores.

An amazing vacuum and Best Buy is also amazing! They did a price match with me on this with extreme ease and money returned in record time! A truly amazing store which I have complete confidence in. I have also purchased my last 2 tv's from best buy and they too are awesome! Thank you Best Buy!

This cordless dyson hand vacuum is great. It has great suction and is very easy to use. Its light weight and hold a charge long enough for us to clean our whole house.

I purchased the Dyson V8 cordless animal vacuum because the V6 only has a battery life of 20 minutes and the V8 has a battery life of 40 minutes. The suction power is awesome. The vacuum is easy to use and it comes with a variety of accessory tools. It cleans carpets as well as hardwood floors. I have a dog that sheds constantly and this vacuum makes it easy to get the hair up.

The Dyson V8 Animal Cordless vacuum cleaner is a versatile, powerful, yet easy-to-use vacuum that has opened my eyes to all the dust and dirt in our homes that is invisible to the naked eye. Using the Dyson, emptying the bin after a few quick passes over "clean" furniture, floors, or carpets demonstrates that looks can be deceiving when determining if something is truly clean.

The Dyson V8 is a game-changer for quick and efficient cleaning. It’s lightweight, powerful, and the cordless design makes it super convenient to use anywhere in the house.
With 6 included accessories, it easily handles floors, furniture, corners, and even the car. The suction power is impressive, and the battery life is perfect for everyday cleanups.
The support for the wall is not good to handle.

Hands down, this Dyson vacuum cleaner works for most hard surfaces in addition to carpet. If you’re targeting affordability and sufficiency, this is the item you should invest in. As a working mother, it’s definitely transformed my life. What a game changer!!!

I didn't know I needed a $400 vacuum, but this vacuum is CORDLESS! How amazing is that? Usually I always struggle with vacuuming since the cords are always getting in the way. I always have to unplug the cords upstairs to do the downstairs floor. It was always a struggle, but Dyson came out with a really cool vacuum that is cordless and super strong/efficient. The power is so strong that it runs out of battery quite quick. I usually would have to charge it after vacuuming because the battery is usually pretty low after vacuuming the whole house. It also has a great warranty too so if anything does break, you can just get a new one (I think).

I soooo love my dyson vacuum , I love that it is cordless because I hated plugging my other vacuum in order for me to even use it , I also have a really huge problem with my hair falling out and with my other vacuum my hairs would get stuck in the roller but with the dyson the hairs go straight into the filter so they don't get stuck on the roller at all . I also love the fact that you can clean your car with it and even your couches . The vacuum is also lightweight and easy to use , and picks up a lot of dirt , I recommended the vacuum to all my family , it is also really easy to dump out the dirt out . The vacuum is really worth the money

The Hybrid Choice for Vacuums

If you want space-saving, portable, flexibility but don't want to sacrifice power this is the vacuum. It replaced our upright and our dust buster. I can get around 3 bedrooms, 2 living spaces and a kitchen using the max-suction feature (when needed) and not fully drain the battery. It works well on every surface it doesn't just spit stuff out the back at your feet.
The big Dyson vacuums don't work on heavy shag carpets but this one does. We have 2 dogs so vacuuming every day is a must and now is no longer a hassle since it's really easy to pull this guy out for a quick job.
I will admit having to hold the trigger is the only downside.
The attachments are great. The smaller brush tool is awesome for a lot of furniture and beds (I have saved a lot of money from not having to buy as many lint rollers.

We’ve got dogs & other animals that shed like crazy, constantly being in mud, constantly leaving chewed up peices of wood & other things…. Plus hay from rabbits which is really hard to get up & I love this vacuum!!!
It’s my first experience with a Dyson vacuum because of the price, but I got it on sale & we have over 14 different vacuums at the house plus the ones that break or have been chewed through & other types of cleaning tools - but they are all large & bulky & need to be plugged in (which the puppies & rabbits love to chew cords)… any hand vacuum doesn’t last long & really wanted a stick vacuum & this one comes to play!! I use it everyday & the charge lasts forever!!
It’s been a life changer for keeping the house clean everyday & not having to lug out larger vacuums or get cords all mixed up or sweep it into ones… and the robo vacs all get killed by the animals so this one so far is the best one overall!!
For more hardy cleaning I use the standing or shopvacs or other ones, but super easy to use & clean!!! Def. try & get this one next time it’s on sale bc I can’t believe how fantastic the price is!! Normally it would be out of our price range!!

I finally bit the bullet and joined the Dyson family! This is a great asset to tile floors (and grandkids). Thanks Dyson, I love my new cleaning buddy.

Love it! It’s strong & lightweight & battery powered so no power cord to slow you down. It does a fantastic job of cleaning both carpeting & hardwood floors. I highly recommend it.

Amazing vacuum. Every marketing claim is actual fact as this tool gets everywhere you need it to get to in a handheld form. Best vacuum I’ve ever had and is a critical tool of my residence’s cleanliness. Sure the power consumption when at max setting is mere minutes, but be sure to plan for this when cleaning and it’s not a problem. The accessories included make it a go-to tool for all vacuuming needs. Glad this is my first Dyson product, will not be my last.
