    Good Cordless vacuum but needs improvements

    I am using a lot for inside kitchen and living room as well as inside my car. Problem 1: Handle is not ergonomic after holding for a while your thumb joint hurting. Hard ABS plastic touching surface to the thumb needs to be smooth and similar shape with our thumb finger direction. Need mechanical improvement. Problem 2: Battery dyes pretty quick when vacuuming sometimes not enough. Problem 3: When you do small vacuuming battery stays half you don't completely use the battery. If I put it into charger back most probably Battery Degradation will be pretty quick and battery lifetime will decrease. There should be power switch to control the power adapter when it is always plug it in to the wall plug. Problem 4: You can't put all the accessories to wall charger there are only two slots but vacuum comes with 4 accessories that you need to use during vacuuming. Sometimes I cannot find other necessary parts during vacuuming. In order to solve this you need to buy Vacuum Cleaner Storage Rack . Over all it is OK. I suggest. I can easily do these improvements by myself.

      Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Dyson V8 Animal cordless vacuum cleaner. I'm happy to hear that you are getting a lot of use out of this model, so far. I'm sorry to hear that you've encountered a short run time with your Dyson V8 Absolute. Your vacuum will come with standard and Max power modes. Our cordless models also have a run-time enhancing light touch trigger which ensures battery power is only used when the trigger is pushed. The total run time will be up to 40 minutes. You can place your unit back on the dock, even if the battery is not completed depleted. Your battery will stop charging, once it's received a full recharge.

      We'd value the opportunity to learn more about your experience with your Dyson V8 Animal, to provide you with support. Please feel free to contact us directly at [email protected]. It will be our pleasure to provide support once we have received your correspondence.

      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    My aunt has had a dyson since their inception and it’s still running. We purchased a different handheld last year and it didn’t quite last one year. So far I absolutely love everything about this from ease of use to the accessories.

    My family owns a dyson vacuum and we love it. It’s super easy to get in all the little tight spots around the house with super succión. The only downside would be how long it actually lasts.

    We have a lot of bare floor and area rugs and my back was getting very tired. This vacuum is great for touch up and doing bare floors and area rugs. It's really. keeping the dust and cat fur down. Also great for touching up furniture and doing edges and corners.

    This is my 2nd Dyson Cord-Free Stick Vacuum purchase and well worth the price. I love it! Does everything my full-size vacuum can do and more. Length of charge lasts through a quick cleanup of the entire house.

    This is a great vacuum - I LOVE IT. It works great and picks up all the dog hair and sand on my floors. We live out in the country and we get a lot of sand in our shoes. I have tile and hardwood floors and it works great. I use it just about every other day.

    This vacuum is great for any vacuuming job! It works great for vacuuming carpeted and non-carpeted rooms! In addition it can be used as a handheld vacuum for stairs or small jobs. It has an attachment with a powered brush head for the handheld vacuum too which works very well!

    Bought this to replace an older V6 model. The battery and suction power are a big improvement. We use it for quick cleanup in between regular vacuuming with a full sized vacuum. It works great for our needs.

    After having a Dyson, I bought this as a house warming gift. It works great. I have had my Dyson for a couple of years now and it is the best vacuum. I have had everything all the way up to a Kirby and highly recommend the Dyson.

    Very lightweight and easy to use. Works great at picking up pet hair. Battery lasts a long time on the regular power setting and long enough to do the first floor of the house on the max setting. Would definitely buy again.

    Very happy with purchase! I had a Dyson V6 animal and the vacuum wasn’t holding charged. So I brought it in to get serviced. And I ended up getting a credit so I purchased the Dyson V8. And they price matched Costco. Vacuum is very powerful.

    I was hesitant to spend this much on a vacuum but it is totally worth it. I have several cats and it works great at picking up the cat hair. To empty the container all you have to do is hold the handheld and lift small handle and the bottom opens - no more stuff flying around. Handheld is great for the furniture.

    this vacuum has great suction power and very easy docking station I'm very happy with this purchase. the only thing I would like to mention in the store I was told that this vacuum comes with 5 years warranty, after checking with dyson, this model has 2 years warranty, not 5.

    I had the Dyson DC59 for 8 years and loved it. Bought this newer model and passed the other to my daughter. Such a difference in battery time to suction power. Can’t go wrong with this model

    We bought the other Dyson full size pet vacuum. Love it except it's heavy for quick cleanups after the kids and dog. Wanted something that was smaller and easier to for quick messes and this is perfect. It does everything we need for a quick cleanup without having to bust out the huge one!
