Customer Ratings & Reviews

I hate housework, but this lightweight, cordless, but powerful unit has slashed my vacuum time in half. 740 sq. ft. takes 10 to 12 min. instead of 30 min. with my old vacuum. Why? No stopping to find a new plug. It is lighter and it fits under furniture and tight corners. Plus, I can do my car that is nowhere near a plug.

Easy to use! Great suction! Lightweight! Only negative thing is the battery is not that great

I use this at my ranch in the mountains to there is always dirt, mud, and firewood bark, bugs and spider webs. Great because no winding of cords, right there on the wall and does a great job of getting the job done.

Strong, portable, multiple tips, light weight, this vacuum is amazing

I love how easy it is to use and menuever. Its light weight and has a powerful suction. However, its battery can’t handle a full day of cleaning, hardly half a day. I’ve heard there is aftermarket batteries that can replace the one that comes with it, but those have potential safety hazards. Otherwise, I am happy with my purchase.

This is really nice hand held, works as expected. I own another Dyson vacuum so not surprised. Only one issue when switched to MAX option, charge does not last long, although the MAX option not needed for my use.

Pound per pound, one of the best. Light wieght, easy to use and store. Max power really gets up dirt. Cons; have to empty it often, max power drains battery to fast.

This vacuum has met all of my expectations. I love the rubber brush and the fact that hair doesn't get wrapped around like the bristle brushes. It has great power and has rejuvenated some of my older rugs when I use the higher power. The battery life is sufficient for what I use it for. I have had the battery run out quicker if I'm using the high power for an extended time. Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and would definitely recommend this vacuum.

The Dyson V8 is a total game-changer! It’s super lightweight, easy to use, and has great suction power. I love that it’s cordless, so I don’t have to deal with annoying wires while cleaning. The battery life is solid—I can clean my whole place on one charge. It works great on both carpets and hard floors, and the attachments make it easy to clean furniture and hard-to-reach spots. Plus, emptying the bin is quick and mess-free. Overall, it’s been totally worth it. If you’re looking for a reliable, hassle-free vacuum, this is it!

I purchased the Dyson V8 for my mom for Christmas. She’s older and has a big heavy Kirby vacuum that seems average at best- to her heavy means it’s quality. Well I had her vacuum with her Kirby and then I vacuumed the same carpet with the Dyson. I almost completely filled the canister! I don’t blame her - decades ago cordless vacs were weak and ineffective compared to their plug-in counterparts. The Dyson V8 is proof that even a mid-level Dyson is better than what used to be a premium vacuum from the 90s. My mom isn’t a total convert yet - she’s suspicious of the battery lasting the rest of time, but with a Li-on battery, I’m not at all worried. So back to the performance of the V8 - what a great machine. I have an older model and it seems that each new verso. Of the Dyson vacs gets better and better. I love the choice of the attachment heads. The short motorized head is perfect for carpeted stairs and the long motorized head works well on shorter and longer pile carpets alike. I also love the wall hanging charger. It holds a couple attachments and takes up very little space. I’m secretly hoping my older model Dyson doesn’t hold on forever because I’m looking forward to upgrading at some point!

Dyson is the best, super easy to use and swap attachments.

Awesome Animal V8 vacuum product & cleans really good on all surfaces

Versatile and effective! Loved it so much I brought one for my parents!

I love this cordless Dyson!! I researched multiple different brands knowing i would come back to Dyson but then the Dyson choices were endless. After deciding the extra attachments were worth it, I bought the V8. Even without the hair attachment it clears pet hair! I have a long and medium haired cat and have had people in my house with allergies that didnt react! No better compliment can be said. Its so light I am able to walk around with it and not feel bogged down. I use this on the stairs, furniture, tile floors, bench seats and more. You will not be disappointed!

Love this vacuum - it is the best investment I’ve made in my home.

LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Didn’t think I would love a cordless vacuum so much!

The item is very light weight and works great know pet hair so far. The dirt trap is a tad small but if you're using it on a regular basis this should not be an issue. The suction when not in max mode is sufficient for most jobs but I find myself on max more often than not.

The vacuum itself is great. We have an 1800 square foot house, and I feel like it’s the perfect size to vacuum the entire house, even with a husky. However, I’m reducing it by one star because the battery life is terrible. It takes a long time to recharge, and it’s not a huge deal because I can deep clean about half of the house in one charge and then charge again. But I wish there were battery replacements so I could just swap them out as needed.

I own one of these already and I bought this one for my son because I wanted him to have the best cleaner he could have and the most useful. It's a great product great price and I'm glad I bought mine.!!

Good investment. Easy to handle and clean. Is very handy and ease of use compared to the older vacuum that i had.
