Customer Ratings & Reviews

This vacuum was worth every penny its so useful around the house or apt in my case the 20 minutes max you have to use it may or may not be an issue for you all depends on the size of your place or how detailed you will be when vacuuming other than that i love this vacuum Dyson always has been a favorite brand of mine expensive as heck it may be but worth purchasing it is! I love the two modes you can have powerful suction and max suction really makes you feel like you paid for a top notch vacuum you feel and hear the change when you switch to max suction. Overall i rate it 10/10 get this for Christmas and the person or yourself will love you!

Overall, a good handheld vacuum that has well above average suction and thoroughly cleans a variety of different carpets. My only complaint is it seems like the battery does not hold a charge for very long considering the price of the overall unit.

Absolutely impressive performance. Able to vacuum a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo, 3 area rugs 2 couches on one charge. Vacuumed the couch for the first time with the included small power brush and I was impressed and grossed out on how much dust and dead skin this little power house lifted from the fabric. 10/10 would recommend.

Incredibly convenient and effective. I was concerned at first seeing that it was battery powered. I was not really convinced that it had the power needed to match wired competitors but it easily establishes itself among the best. It is very light to use and perfect for someone like me that has back problems. To be able to switch between the attachments seamlessly is one of its best features. Dyson has gained another happy customer.

I hate vacs: heavy, clumsy, lack suction, don’t do their job. The Dyson Animal V8 does it all. Easy to use. Easy to empty. Recharges fairly quickly. Not fast. Picks up most dirt, dig hair, etc. I hope it lasts. Dyson has been really dinked over the years for reliability and repair service. When you buy one, read the manual!!!

The weight is perfect and it is powerful! Great for hardwood floors, the couch, and carpets. I do wish the battery lasted longer but I’ll take a shorter battery life over a heavier model.

Love this vacuum. It’s lightweight! Comes with all the different attachments to vacuum large or small spaces. Great price for great value!

Awesome vacuum! A little pricey but worth every penny

Happy with this vacuum. Works well. It’s really convenient. Get the tower from Dyson that allows you to store it.

Does a great job sucking up anything and everything on the floor. Our only critique is that the battery doesn’t last long enough to get our whole house. Overall still very happy with it.

i LOVE THIS LITTLE GEM, I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO A REGULAR VACUUM. I HAVE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THIS ITME TO NUMEROUS FRIEND AND FAMILY MEMBERS.

I kind of have a slight obsession with vacuums. I have no idea why but I bought several vacuums a year for the last 6 years. I tried the budget ones which work well. I tried the ones that work like a Dyson and I tried several stick vacs. After purchasing this I believe I have found what I have been looking for. I can use it on carpet or on the hardwood. I can easily use it to clean under the bed and even use it to clean the steps. This is honestly the Swiss army knife of vacuums. I didn't get the news model because we have a cat and it does say pet. Also there are newer ones but the difference is really only the battery life. With the battery I can with normal suction do the finished basement. The steps the kitchen dining room then I turn on the power suction and do the living room carpet since our cat lays there all the time. Then I remove the brush and use the nozzle for the steps then get to the top of the steps attach the brush and do the top of the steps on maximum. Then I take it off maximum and do the bedroom the closet and the spare room. Then the bathroom. A total time of 20 minutes. I charge it then do the basement and the steps and the set it back on the charger.

Is food but already needs a battery wich is an issue but the power is excellent

It’s very convenient and fast to clean easy to hold

Love the power it puts out for a cordless and easy to store. This vacuum gets the job done!

Love this for my home! great battery life and I can vacuum the whole house without running out of battery power! I have a Lab/Shepard mix dog and she sheds mad crazy. Amazing how much hair it gets out of my rugs! Recommend 100%. I purchased the V7 prior to this one, the upgrades made to the V8 are worth the extra money. You won't regret it!!

I had a Dyson V6 which was lighter than the V8. I like the V8 fine but couldn't give it the five stars because it is a little heavy - not much but a little. Also it doesn't empty as easily but I appreciate the YouTube help.

Great solution for shedding pets! It does the job, and then some keeping up with a all-year round dual coat dog is a full time job and this vacuum makes it 10x easier!

After purchasing and trying a couple different battery powered vacuums, this Dyson Vacuum is the perfect weight and cleans way better than all those "cheaper" brands I've owned in the past. Hopefully it will last longer than all the others did.

For the price it’s definitely worth it. Only complaint is there’s no light, but that’s the price difference. In my opinion totally worth it. Will upgrade later but so far, a year later and no problems.
