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.

    Our vacuum stopped working after 1 day. Dyson has no stock for replacement. I wouldn’t recommend this product to anyone and will likely steer clear of Dyson in the future.

    I paid a lot of money for this item, even on sale, and i've only used it a handful of times in the year and a half since I bought it. Was planning to return it because I realized it won't stand on its own, but missed the return window, finally plugged it in and charged but it never holds a charge it seems. When you push the button, even after it's been "charging" for months without use, it runs, stops, have to keep pressing the button. I'll be contacting Dyson about this. It sucks. Actually, it doesn't suck... as a vacuum should.

    Good product. My wife has owned these vacuums but they are delicate and the motor or some function around the motors go bad often. We originally purchased 3 of them for each floor in the home and under 2 years one broke and now under 3 years a second one broke. The motors went bad.

      Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. I am happy to hear that you've been pleased with the job your Dyson V8 Animal does in your home. Dyson V8 Animal cordless is a hassle-free vacuum with powerful suction. The powerful direct-drive cleaner head removes ground-in dirt and pet hair from carpets, and self-adjusts to pick up dirt and debris from your bare floors.  

      Dyson V8 Animal also features two suction modes; MAX and standard. Please keep in mind that the V8 offers plenty of suction on normal power to effectively clean your floors because of the motorized brush bar. MAX power is really only needed for tough cleaning jobs. Also, while many do use Dyson cordless machines as their main vacuum at home, if you prefer a longer run time, we’d recommend one of our compact uprights or canister models.
       
      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,

      Hello Betty, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're glad to hear that you found the Dyson V8 so easy to use. Your machine comes with two modes of suction, regular and MAX. While using your machine in MAX, you'll have a boost of suction for larger debris or more stubborn messes. If you are finding that debris is being left behind or difficult to pick up you can switch your machine over to MAX mode. In regular, you'll have enough suction for everyday household cleaning, along with longer run times.

      We would value the opportunity to learn more regarding your experience as we are committed to customer satisfaction. Please feel free to email us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. It will be our pleasure to provide support.
