Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the impressive suction power, fantastic ease of use, and lightweight, cordless design, which contribute to its great overall performance. However, a significant number of customers feel that the battery life could be improved. Additionally, some users mention that the price is steep and the product can be noisy, especially on hardwood floors.

      Hello Azzy, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're glad to hear that for the most part, you've been happy with the overall performance from your V8 Animal. Dyson V8 vacuums have a run time of up to 40 minutes, when used in standard power mode. On MAX power, run time will be shorter due to the added boost of suction power. You should find that suction in standard power mode is sufficient for most tasks, while MAX is better suited for tough cleaning jobs.
       
      We would like to ensure that your vacuum is performing as intended. Please feel free to reach out to askdysonUS@dyson.com. We are always keen on providing support.
       
      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    If you want to vacuum after breakfast/lunch and dinner is good enough. If you want to clean the whole house there are better options than this vacuum

    Used the handheld to clean furniture after home remodel and it did a great job of removing the fine dust from the furniture. Great on carpet as well.

      Hi Jessica, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you've been disappointed with the life of the battery, in your V8 Animal cord-free. 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. 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 would value the opportunity to assist with your machine, to help ensure your Dyson is working properly. Please feel free to contact us directly at askdysonUS@dyson.com.

      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    We love how Dyson has redesigned the filter so that we can actually clean it and get all of our dog hair out. It also seems to have more battery life.

    Handles hard wood and surfaces great. Perfect for getting the car done in a pinch. Minus one star for having to hold the trigger the whole time.
