Customers recognize the product for its impressive suction power, fantastic ease of use, and lightweight, cordless design, which contribute to its great overall performance. They also appreciate the convenience of its cordless feature and various attachments. However, a significant concern for many is the battery life, which customers feel could be improved. Other noted drawbacks include its high price, noise level, small dustbin, and less effective performance on carpeting.

    The battery is defective and does not charge long plus dies almost immediately but since I did not purchase insurance less than a few months lost my money, too bad because works pretty good. Upset

    I just moved into a two story house and needed a light weight vacuum to carry up and down the stairs. this vacuum works great and is a great multi-purpose vacuum to go from hard wood floors to area rugs without having to adjust any settings. It's completely replaced my full size Bissell.

    It is good while operating but very poor battery. On full charge it hardly lasted 20 mins. It take 2 to 3 hours to get full charge. Bin is very small.

    Dyson V8 Animal Cordless Stick Vacuum

    It cleans well but battery life is way tooo short and that is why I give it a 3 star, but other aspects of the vacuum I am happy with. My battery life can only clean 1 bedroom(small) and probably my kitchen (also small) then it's dead.

    I made my own v8 absolute (=v8 animal+soft roller)

    I made my own v8 absolute by buying v8 animal at Best Buy when on sale (saving $100) and buying a soft roller on Amazon. The soft roller is great for the hardwood floor but v8 animal does not come with it. However, the only difference between v8 animal and v8 absolute is the soft roller and the price difference between the two is $150, while the soft roller was $100 on Amazon. So I ended up saving $50 for my own v8 absolute (= v8 animal + soft roller). I bought 4 year protection ($60) from Best Buy to have a peace of mind. (I also compared protection plans across different sellers and I liked the Best Buy one). My v8 absolute (v8 animal + soft roller) has been working great so far.

    Excellent vacuum so far. Easy to assemble. Easy to use. Light and well balanced. We bought this to complement the roller ball model which is good, but awkward and harder to maneuver. This stick makes a little pick-up easy and convenient. Good vaqlue purchase for us.

    We have a 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment and I can vacuum my whole apartment on 1 charge using the lower setting. The max suction option is literally only good for quick pick ups. Like spilled food on floors. Very easy to clean. And I feel the floors are MUCH cleaner after I use this, like nothing is left behind. All of the attachments are easy to use as well.

    Absurdly handy. I don't have to drag out the regular vacuum and it works so well in cars. I bought it on sale and would recommend if you can wait to save the 100 dollars but otherwise go for it!

    Never thought it’d be so easy cleaning my house with this. Comes with all necessary tools and I even cleaned out my car. Battery life could be a little better but other than that absolutely no complaints. Great suction and great value.

    I just received this yesterday. I put it together and started to use it on the constant cat hair I have to keep after. It handled it without hesitation. I was blown away by how easily it works. I am sorry I did not buy this earlier. I would buy another no problem.

    This is what I was looking for. Cordless, powerful, compact. The best thing it has few attachments/accessories, so using it to clean a car or a house is as easy as ever it can be even for kids (not being afraid that they would mess up with cords...).
