    I call this an all-terrain vacuum. We have hardwood, carpeting and area rugs. No adjusting necessary. It’s cordless, easy to use and the docking station as a must! We bought it on sale so that was an additional plus. It also converts into a hand held tool which makes cleaning the stairs, easy, dusting, and cleaning the couch. We highly recommend this product.

    I also on a Dyson Red upright vacuum and I feel this outperforms it. I was debating on buying the preceding V6 Animal but pulled the trigger on the V8 after reading the reviews and investing on the newer, stronger product. No complaints here, longer run time than the V6. Great for small to medium jobs (I tend to run max suction, so possible to cover larger areas on normal suction). Went for the cordless as I really hate the hassle of setting up and putting away cords. Just don't forget to empty canister if doing a messy job as it does fill up quick due to its awesome suction.

    I purchased this originally for our house but after buying an RV, we've transported it between the house and the RV. It breaks down so easy and quickly. Our first home was all hardwood floors and I didn't think anything could get better than this little vacuum. But we recently purchased a new home that is split between carpet and hardwood and it's amazing how great it works on carpet as well! I will never own another brand again!

    I previously had one of these and finally after like 10 years I needed a new one.....I dropped it and the plastic clip broke so I had to really hold it together in order to use it..it still worked but I decided I wanted a new one. The new is really good and made better! The roller brush seems much better and it picks up a lot!!! I have pet hair and pets that bring in everything so it is working great. My only complaint is the charging time is not as long as my old one, it is too short1

    • Brand response from DysonProductExpert
      Posted .

      Hello Alex, this is Kelly with Dyson. Your Dyson V8™ cordless offers two powerful suction modes - regular and MAX. MAX provides a boost of suction for larger debris or more stubborn messes. This mode should not be utilized for your everyday cleaning, as it will only give you about 7 minutes of run time. Regular suction is generally suitable for every household, and gives up to 40 minutes of run time (30 when using a motorized tool). If you feel that your V8 might be malfunctioning, we do offer a two-year warranty on this product. Just reach out to our customer support at askdysonUS@dyson.com so we can help.

      Kind wishes,
      Kelly

    Great Vacuum...Too Much $$

    I absolutely love the V8 Animal. After trying a friend's V6 Motörhead I decided to wait bc I didn't like the run time, the noise or the fact that trash got stuck in the bin. The Animal fixed all those problems. The 40-minute run time is great. Long enough to take care of my cleaning needs, plus some (and I'm borderline OCD). The suction is great on normal speed so I only used the max speed once. It's very quiet so you don't realize how much it's picking up until you look in the bin. Very impressive. I would have liked to pay a little less for it, $300 maybe, but I paid $500 only bc I hadn't seen the price decrease in the months I had been researching, so I looked at it as an investment. For that reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
