Customers are saying

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.

    This is a second person review. I gave this as a gift to someone who keeps house like a museum. They rave about it so I am passing that along.

    Good suction power but the battery Doesn’t last the necessary time to finish all. It last Approx 20 mitutes only, what I think it is not enough for the prize paid

      Hello Arito, this is Kelly with Dyson. I'm sorry to hear that you've found the run time on your Dyson V8 Animal to be subpar, thus far in your use. 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. Having a shorter run time does sound unusual, and we'd value the opportunity to go over your machine with you. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at askdysonus@dyson.com. We are keen on providing support.
       
      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    I have 2 in my home now one on my yacht. They take up very little space, are always ready to work, and do a great job on hard wood and carpet.

    Lots of attachments and nice vacuum. Battery isn’t as great as advertised. It suppose to have 40 mins of battery life but that is more like 30 on regular low and on super high suction it’s in the 15 range at best

    It’s a great strong cordless vacuum. It’s perfect for my house. The battery Lasted about 15 to 20 minutes, which was just long enough to get the job done. I think any period longer than that, my hand will get tired

    My V-6 was damaged so I upgraded to the V-8. The difference is amazing. The cleaning power is so much better, l plan on upgrading to a v-11 soon

    This vacuum sucks...literally.. It has longer battery life than Dyson V6 and so far it has been fantastic on our hardwood floors. My only regret is I didn't purchase this sooner.

    Cannot get the canister to open in order to empty it. I have already called the Dyson help line once, and they thought I had it too full at the time. However, it will not open for me AT ALL, and I know for sure it is NOT too full. I will try the help line one more time. I am VERY disappointed in this product so far.

    Great vacuum cleaner but the battery doesn’t last that long on the highest setting. I got lucky and bought the v10 for the same price which has a better battery and the hard floor attachment
