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.

    The trigger can be difficult to mess with, maybe future lineups will consider the lock switch to keep the vacuum onn like the competitors but other than that the vacuum preform great!

      Hello J, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you've had some trouble with the trigger on your V8 Animal. We know that battery run time is a very important aspect of performance for our owners, so we developed a trigger that helps maximize the amount of time you can clean on one charge. We chose a light-touch trigger over an on/off switch to ensure that battery life is never wasted by letting the machine run when it's not in active use. 
       
      We would value the opportunity to learn more about your experience along with ensuring that your vacuum is performing as intended. Please do not hesitate to contact us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. We are keen on providing you with support. 
       
      Best wishes,
      Kelly

    This vacuum does a decent job of picking up dirt and dog hair. The one thing I don't like about it is the fact you have to hold the button down the entire time you are vacuuming. It does not have a switch that you can turn the machine on/off. Dysan customer support is good.

    We’ve owned Dyson‘s for years and I’ve been very happy with them. Especially their customer service when the battery needs to be replaced. The only reason why I bought this one is because I ran over the other one.

    We replaced our Dyson with this model. It’s good & easy to operate. Wish the front rollers would not be too big so it can reach u see the fridge & stove area, but otherwise a great cleaner.

    This was an awful experience. After my first appointment was canceled with short notice, a subsequent appointment was not for another 10 days. A third party service arrived and after 3 minutes in the house told me they could do nothing. I am contesting the charge and still have not had a service call after visiting store 3 times.

      Hello Jenn, this is Kelly with Dyson. We are sorry to hear that you're not having a better experience with your Dyson 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. You may be interested to know that the new Dyson Cyclone V10 models have an advertised run time of up to 60 minutes, which is our longest run time to date.
       
      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.

    Handy vacuum

    Nice handy vacuum for wood or tile floors. It definitely gets the job done and I appreciate the HEPA filter so I know I'm not breathing in my dog's dander while vacuuming up all the pet hair. I took one star off because it's noticeably less powerful than my Dyson upright, which works much better in carpeted areas.
