    Really good value for sale price. Shipping came fast. I live one hour from the store so online buying with no charge for shipping is very convenient

    Works great, use in our 5th wheel trailer when we’re camping, convenient to be cordless. Also like at home, use the lower suction level for the rugs so it won’t suck up the rug like our corded Dyson does.

    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

    For the longest time I refused to buy a Dyson stick vacuum because I felt the price was not worth it. After trying a couple non dyson brand vacs, I gave in a bought the V8 and I'm glad I did. The charger stand is easy to use and makes it convenient to do a quick vacuum, meaning the house stays cleaner. I specifically like the upholstery tool, one of the main reasons I was looking. For a stick vac (to keep up with my 2 dogs). If I were to do it again I'd buy a larger version for extended run time and larger dust bin, but I love this one for it's lightness and compact size!

    One of the best vacuums I used

    I used various Dyson vacuums for a long time and as moved to the US left the latest one me in Europe. So I was looking for Dyson V model for the lowest price and actually found it here at Best buy. There were strange delivery dates so I just went to the shop and bought there - quick, easy and fast. The vacuum works perfect, suction force is awesome, especially when in boost mode. As I have a pet, Dyson vacuum is an essential thing for me, very helpful for daily fur cleaning. The only disadvantage is that it works like 8-10 minutes in the boost mode, tho works more in a normal mode but then suction is really average

    I purchased this because I have kids and pets, and having a vacuum close by is very handy. The battery seems to work for about 10 minutes on high, which has more suction than my previous cannister vacuum. Certainly would recommend.

    This is so far ahead of the other cordless vacuums that I've tried, that I will not consider another brand. Easy-to-use, powerful, convenient. Haven't used our corded vacuum since getting it.

    Giving this 3 stars. Within a few months the battery charge was always dying too quickly (still is). Does an awesome job cleaning but the battery life and filter life sucks.

    Purchased this Dyson V8 to replace a Dyson V6 that we broke (Our bad, not a product issue) This unit has some obvious improvements over the V6, beginning with more power and some subtle features. These units feel very well made and out old model held up to most abuse. (I say "most" because we did manage to break it through our own negligence). It is a bit heavier, but non of these "Stick" vacuums are as cumbersome as the many I have previously owned. Cordless feature is a big plus, with plenty of battery time. We have had great experiences with the Dyson products and would recommend and purchase again.

    Actually I haven't used it yet but know I'll really enjoy it. Not having a cord to deal with and it being light weight is wonderful. It's easy to store and also easy to change to a hand held vacuum.

    Coming from a canister vaccum I love not having a cord. Just grab the vaccum and go. Works great on carpets and not as good on hardwood/tile but still good. Love the no bag, easy to empty. Utility works great on stairs. So much better than lugging around canister.

    Great suction and moves smoothly around corners and tight spaces. Only complaint is the max suction only lasts for 7 minutes, I would love for that to be a little longer when cleaning my car or my large area rugs.

    Great vacuum. The only thing i would change is the handle is a little small for bigger hands and the holder the vacuum sits in only has space for two of the accessories not all three .

    I just moved to Minnesota and have carpet in my bedroom in this new rental. Usually a swifter guy, but needed a vacuum to satisfy both hardwood floors in living area and bedroom. Actually went to BestBuy looking for a router/modem combo and decided to walk over to Dyson section to "browse". The Dyson lady, Magdelena came over, showed me how thoughtfully constructed this vaccum was and I was sold. She also told me that it lasts for many years so decided to make an investment. Very happy with it so far. I initially got the V7, but the power wasn't to my satisfaction. Saw V8 selling in Costco for $299 (cost of V7) at the time so came back to store, asked for pricematch for V8 and they did. So happy with it. No regrets.

    Great great handheld vacuum. The suction is unbeatable. It don't miss an ounce of dog hair. I live on a farm so the ease of use right off the dock is so important.
