Best Vac Ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great. Even the best vac is useless if you don't us it. This vac is actually fun to use. My floors and rugs have never been cleaner. We have a fluffy cat and this handles her hair without any problem.

I would recommend this to a friend Battey life let down
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.210 minute charge time to get 12 minutes of vacuuming. Such a let down especially when the specs say 40 minutes of run time. Thats what i get for spening $500 just for the name.

I would recommend this to a friend Great vacuum, but one flaw; the cannister.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is hands down a great vacuum and has made my life so much easier when it comes to cleaning. Not only mine actually, it makes my family happy. My family feel so much more happier vacuuming since they don't have to keep replugging the switch to different outlets since our house is big. They vacuum way more often now as well because of how easy it is. The only flaw or issue I had with the vacuum so far is the cannister to dump the gunk out. Sometimes the junk would get stuck when you're trying to empty it out and I think that's a result from the cannister compacting too much dust and it gets too full. There comes a point where we'd need to shake the cannister for the trash to come out or even pull it out with our fingers. No matter how you drop the pile of dust and hair you collected, it will always hit the surface and throw up more dust into the air and it low-key makes me freak out a bit. Other than that, I had no other issues!

good power questionable battery life
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The vacuum does have more power than expected but when running on its high setting for power it doesn't make it thru an entire floor sweeping; I need to alternate between high and low settings to make it last.

Posted .Hello Joe, this is Kelly with Dyson. I'm sorry to hear that you've encountered a short run time with your Dyson V8 Animal. 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. In Max power run time will be up to 7 minutes, and in standard power, you can expect run times of up to 30-40 minutes depending on which tool or attachments you are using. We wouldn't expect that MAX power would be needed very often, as it's typically reserved for more stubborn messes or larger debris. You should find regular power to provide sufficient suction for most of your household vacuuming.
We'd certainly value the opportunity to go over your machine with you and make sure that it is performing as intended. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at [email protected]. We are keen on providing support.
Best wishes,
Kelly

Great suction and flexibility
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this product. Group suction power and flexibility. The only thing I don't like is the trigger doesn't lock so you have to keep your finger on the trigger to power it up.
I would recommend this to a friend Not like they used to.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not made like they used to. My older DYSON stick had more suction, a better opening dust canister and a bigger dirt canister.

Love it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Run time on a full charge is only about 30 minutes. Which is just as long as it takes for vacuuming to become boring. Does an amazing job picking up pet fur and dust that I didnt know existed.

Best stick vacuum
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was iffy on paying the price of a stain but my wife wanted one so we tried it. I have to say I do really like it. It works so much better than the sharks we’ve had in the past
I would recommend this to a friend Great vaccume
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a powerful vac with a long run time. It is far superior to the previious model I had and quieter. The accessories, or tools set is very complete, including a motorized tool to clean your stairs.

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this vacuum couple months ago. I am super happy with it. It is very easy to use. Not too heavy. I use it to vacuum my house all the time

Love this vacuum!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has bee my favorite new purchase for our new home! It’s compact and so convenient because it’s wireless. I can vacuum the house and my car and not feel like I’m lugging around a huge vacuum.
I would recommend this to a friend My best household purchase this year!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely enjoy using my stick vacuum! I believe it cut my vacuum time in half, even when using the many attachments. No cords and no heavy machine to tug around! I can vacuum approximately 1200 S.F. and empty the canister once (probably because I vacuum at least twice a week). I have one long hair cat and the stick picks up all dander and hair, from everywhere! It's easy to clean and it's stored on the charger on my laundry room wall, which is a real value and space saver!
