Customer Ratings & Reviews

Been eying this vacuum for months. Wanted something lightweight powerful and lasting. This little guy fits all those categories. I have 3 dogs at home and the Dyson V8 animal is exactly what I’ve been wanting. No cords to drag or get tangled, one charge can last while I do the entire house. Love it.

Works great on carpet, tile, and wood floors. It’s so nice to not have to drag a cord around with the vacuum!

Dyson suction is unmatched. This cordless stick vac is easy to charge and use, does an amazing job and runs for a LOT longer than I thought the battery ever would. Just been waiting for the price to come down so, when it did, I grabbed one. Wish I could afford another one for my office.

I feel like Dyson doesn’t have any good quality of parts in the Vaccum. Seems like I have a toy Vaccum or something, which is fine but atleast make the vaccum where you can’t hear any plastic parts squeaking. Like make it into metal or better quality, I understand the lighter weight the better but that just benefits Dyson to spend less money and make more profit too so.

I live the fact that this vacuum is so light weight and portable, also the suction power… but good grief!!! The handle is unbelievablely uncomfortable! Before I’m finished vacuuming my small home, I’ve got a blister on my thumb! If it didn’t have such a poorly designed handle, I’d easily give it 5 stars…

Really convenient way to vacuum, but the battery does not last as long as advertised.

My wife has always seen this as a must have. Both for the cordless technology and the power behind it. I decided to purchase for her birthday and it was worth every penny. I’ve never seen something clean so well. If you need something with dependability this is the product you need.

This is an amazing vacuum. My wife and I wanted something quick, light weight and durable. This checked all the boxes, in fact I use it to clean the whole home now, as it so portable. I will recommend everyone should have this Dyson vacuum.

The "jury" is still out. This is our third Cord-free stick vacuum. The trigger quit working on the first two (lasted about a year each). We'll see if this one lasts longer. Other than that, the performance is great. We use it for spot cleaning and a light mid-week vacuuming.

I'll never use another vacuum again nor do I need one. 1600 sq ft house, split level colonial and I can do the whike house in 1 charge. It picks up everything and is so easy to use. I find myself WANTING to vacuum daily and am always so satisfied when I do.

So freeing to vacuum with no cord! Great on hardwoods and rugs. Gets into tight places. Great for car too.

This is the best vacuum I"ve ever had. We have a cat at home and this vacuum collects the last hair from the carpet. Very satisfied of this product. It's not cheap but is doing a great job.Very light and at the same time very powerful suction.

I use this item almost everyday. I have two dogs & they get hair everywhere especially my white one. Now, it’s very easy for me to clean up my couches and even my car with my vacuum. It has multiple different uses & being cordless makes my life much easier but the cord would always be in the way or even trip over it. It’s the best thing I’ve ever Purchased!

So I use the Kirby on the main floor and a secondary vacuum in our basement/lower floor. After going through a Hover and a Kenmore (which lasted a long time) I decided to go wireless. My philosophy is you get what you pay for in most cases, and so I went a bit more high end. While not the 11 I thought I'd go with the V8 Animal and I'm not regretting it. I don't know the long term, but in the short term it is excellent. I tried it right after using the Kirby. And I was impressed at what it did on what I would have thought was a good job, pulling hair and a ton of dirt that the Kirby was leaving behind. Needless to say I don't mind using it and as a bonus it is excellent on stairs. Nearly effortless is how I would describe it.

This is the only vacuum I will ever use again. It is cordless so there was no cords to trip over or plug and unplug. The suction is great on the lower setting but it does have a higher suction option. It is great for pet hair.

I purchased this because the video literally shows and says it can bend to get underneath furniture and it doesn’t. Good vaccum aside from that.

This is probably one of the best vacuums I've ever purchased. The suction is great. It felt as the floor was coming up. So far I've cleaned my car, the hardwood flooring and carpet throughout our home. The only downfall is it has be recharged within 30 mins. I wish the charge lasted longer.

Wish we had made the purchase sooner. This is great for quick touch-ups, vacuuming the car and even does fairly well on thick carpet. In Max mode it doesn't last long but even on regular mode it has strong suction. We are very pleased and would recommend to anyone on the fence. Get it!

You get what your paid for wish the charge lasted a little longer but other then that everything is great

My wife had been looking for a powerful lightweight vacuum. The hose and head unit of the central vac was too heavy and too unwieldy to be of much use. The Dyson more than does the job in our small townhouse. Plus, it lets us vacuum the stairs, which was almost impossible with the central vac.
