Uncomfortable and the battery doesnt last
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The handle has a screw sticking out that is cutting up my hand during use. I can't set it in any further, and the hole edges are sharp. After a 5 hour charge, the battery lasts 10-15 min. Just an awful waste of money.

Minor but major issue!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Vacuum works well but there is one flaw that makes it a pain (literally) to use. The handle length is too short!! Both my wife's and my hands barely fit onto the handle and it gives us pain/blisters on the base knuckle of our thumb after vacuuming for a couple minutes. It's a real bummer too cuz the vacuum is nice otherwise. We were really excited to get such a nice vacuum after trying multiple other (and cheaper) ones but none were so uncomfortable to use. Seems like a major oversight considering it's supposed to be so wonderfully designed and engineered. We will be returning. P.S. My wife and I do not have giant gorilla hands. We are both 6ft tall with average size hands.

Posted .Hello Fedsmoker,
Thank you for your review. This is Miella from Dyson. We're happy to hear you've enjoyed the functionality and suction of your Dyson V8 Animal. The V8 is designed to provide a quick, versatile cleaning solution for your home, with strong suction!
We're sorry to hear of your experience with the handle and trigger. We would certainly not expect a bruise or blister to occur as a result of using your Dyson product. If you are finding this to be your experience, we would recommend holding the unit lower down the handle to prevent rubbing or pressure on the top of your hand. Please also keep in mind that Dyson cordless vacuums will feature a runtime enhancing light touch trigger, which requires little pressure to run the unit as well. It may also prove helpful to ensure the unit is held with a firm, but not a very tight grasp, given that the light touch trigger does not require a very hard press or grasp to operate.
We'd value the opportunity to learn more about your experience with your Dyson as we'd like to help ensure you are having a 5-star experience. Please feel free to reach out to us at askdysonUS@dyson.com, and we will be in touch.
Best Wishes,
Miella

First dyson vacuum
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I like it plus getting special 0% financing, black friday and price match. I think it was a good deal. Still not sure why every stick vacuum gives you 4 clip on accessories with a stand that holds 3 but dyson did it too. So far thats my biggest issue is an accessory with no holder on the wall mount

Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum Review
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum is a highly-rated and popular choice for a reason. Users consistently praise its powerful suction, lightweight design, and versatility, which make it a great option for quick cleanups and daily maintenance. It handles a variety of surfaces, from hard floors to carpets, with ease. The included attachments, like the Hair Screw Tool, are particularly useful for tackling pet hair on furniture and other tricky areas. One of the V8's most appreciated features is its cordless convenience, allowing you to move freely without being tied to an outlet. It easily transforms into a handheld vacuum, which is perfect for cleaning cars, stairs, and hard-to-reach spots. The wall-mounted charging dock is also a convenient way to store the vacuum and its accessories. However, some users have noted a few drawbacks. The battery life can be a concern for larger homes, as the vacuum's run time, especially on max power, is limited. Some customers also mention that the continuous trigger button can become uncomfortable during extended use. Additionally, while the V8 is more affordable than newer Dyson models, its price is still a consideration for some. Overall, the Dyson V8 is an excellent and effective vacuum for small to medium-sized homes, especially for those with pets. Its strong performance and ease of use make it a worthwhile investment.

Dyson V8 lives up to the hype
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Dyson hand vac lives up to its reputation. Not only does it do a great job in picking up messes, it looks great doing it too! There are easily a dozen other choices of hand vacs in all price ranges but this one fills the small niche market of wanting both form and function. Assembly was straight forward and I had it on the charger within minutes of opening the box. The manual does state that it comes pre-charged to about 20% but recommends plugging it in immediately for 5 hours to fully charge the battery. It comes with an assortment of attachments that each has a very distinct purpose and adds value to the already high price tag of the vacuum. It does come with a fancy wall mount but limited to a nearby outlet for the charging cord to reach. I haven’t found that “perfect” spot to mount it yet as I don’t want it to be a “statement piece” in the living room. My interest in the hand vac is linked to the 2 dogs and 1 cat I have in the house. Our dogs have their spots on the couch and can get pretty furry in less than a few days. The chore of lugging a large vacuum out and unwinding the long cord is enough to discourage a daily cleaning of the couch. This is where the Dyson V8 shines. Its light, less than 6 pounds, and fully charged when you need it. Its more convenient to use the hand vac for small tasks than using the large full sized vacuum. I have attached 2 photos that shows the versatility of the hand vac. It has 2 suction settings that you can use to match the job. Most of the time, the lower setting is enough to do the task. The low setting got us about 40 mins of continuous use and the high setting got us a little over 7 minutes. This may not sound like much but this hand vac is meant to fill in the in-between use of your full sized vacuum. The first picture is what the dog fur looks like when we don’t vacuum it for a few days. It didn’t take long for the V8 to tackle the job on the low setting. It took the crevice and small spinning brush to do the job. With a push of a button, changing the tools was a breeze. My full sized vacuum would have done the job but way less convenient. The second picture shows the effectiveness of the hand brush attachment. Brushing the cat usually gets me another cat’s worth of fur on the ground. The cat’s fur is so fine that its easily matted into the carpet. The suction of the Dyson and the small brush head attachment did a great job in picking up the fine cat fur and only with one sweep too. Emptying the canister is as easy as pulling a lever. It does come with a washable filter that’s easy to rinse out in the sink. I highly recommend the Dyson V8 for homes with animals or small children. The convenience of having a small vacuum without unwinding a power cord will most likely increase my vacuuming rate per week. It might be one of the most expensive hand vacs in the market but know that you’re not only paying for its great function, you are also getting a nice looking hand vac that’s not an eyesore that you have to hide in the closet either. I hope my review helped!
