Customer Ratings & Reviews

Lots of power, light weight, picks up dog hair and other "dirt" great on hardwoods, tile and carpet. It is not cheap, but it runs on high power for over 20 minutes and who wants to vacuum over 20 minutes at a time. Go to tool when we see something on the floor.

This is a great vacuum with amaing suction. The battery life is a little short especially since it has a 5 hour charge time.

It gets the job done! Very powerful vacuum, only downside is that the battery dies very fast and takes a while to charge.

My wife loves it .!!! It’s so powerful .!! And no to noise

My oh my! I can't believe I would enjoy vacuuming, my 3 level staircase and hardwood floors this much! This was always a chore. Usually took an hour on my hand and knees with a loud portable vacuum. VERY happy how this works. Hey I am looking forward to when I vacuum again. Light weight, not loud, easy to maneuver, no cord to give me hassles (keep trying to adjust the no longer a cord problem out of habit). The suction astounded me just like all of the other review! YOU really cannot go wrong with this purchase! VERY worth it!

This vacuum works great. Only two small issues, one is too be expected, the cordless battery on max doesn’t last too long but charges pretty fast. The other small issue is the accessories need a storage assembly.

So far so good! It's a great product, I've been vacuuming my bedroom (carpet) almost every day since I got it. It's just so easy to use, very lightweight and small.

We love our Dyson vacuum. It was a great purchase but a little on the expensive side but, that’s okay because it does everything we expected it to do. Love it!

Bought to replace an older model whose battery had died. This has more power and still is light weight, easy to use.

Dyson came through for me again with this lighter and easy to use cordless vacuum. Performance is excellent along with the convenience of this model.

The Dyson V8 is a great vacuum! We love how powerful the suction is, how easy it is to maneuver around tight spaces and obstacles, and how versatile it is with the many included attachments. It has the right tool for any job! The only downsides are that you have to hold down a trigger button continuously in order to run the unit, which can be a literal pain after a while, and battery life is not super long when its in high suction mode.

Vacume has Great suction, gives a good 35 min running time.

Great performance, easy to use. The only issue is the amount of time that the battery last.

My favorite vacuum. I can’t get over the power of this vaccum and how light weight it is!

Best vacuum I’ve ever used. Only downside is small canister.

Just about the perfect Dyson vac. There are other more expensive higher tech models, but honestly, this is really all you need. A great combination of performance and versatility, with the most useful attachments. Be sure to get it on sale at $329.99, not worth $469.99.

I was skeptical about this vacuum but gave it a try anyway. I’ve been a Shark fan for years and still own a Shark Rotator. I went back and forth on deciding between this older model v8 and the newer (and more expensive) models v10 and v11 . I am in LOVE with this vacuum! I liked it from day one, but the more I use it the more I am impressed all over again lol. I’ve had it 3 months now and vacuum at least once per day, usually twice. It’s so fast and easy to do with this little 5.5 pound vacuum! I am so glad I didn’t spend more for the newer model. I’m sure the newer ones are great, but this little v8 suits my needs perfectly and at an affordable price. I thought I would hate having to hold the trigger. I don’t. It is so responsive and powers on so easy that I don’t even notice it. It’s built into the handle right where your finger rests anyway. I also thought the battery would not be enough power to complete the job since I am a bit obsessive with my cleaning. I was wrong. I almost never run out of battery. Only when I get carried away or want to vacuum one of our vehicles right after vacuuming the whole house. My house is only 1300 sq ft on the main level with a full basement. I can do the whole house plus the carpeted basement stairs and my furniture (I have a dog) before running out of battery. And it charges pretty fast. Within about 3 hrs there is a full charge. I love how easy it is to use and the light weight of the vacuum. It is seriously awesome! After a few weeks of purchasing this animal version, I did purchase the fuzzy roller separately on Amazon for another $100. I find the fuzzy roller and the brush roller (that comes with vacuum) perform equally well on hard floors in my opinion. On carpet, the brush roller is best. The fuzzy roller works fine on carpet for pet hair but doesn’t totally pull dirt and sand out as well as the brush roller does. I prefer the fuzzy roller for my solid floors as it is much quieter. But where the fuzzy roller really shines is on my furniture for removing pet hair! I don’t even use the mini powered upholstery brush as I find the fuzzy works better, and without shutting down the power if the suction becomes too strong. I use the fuzzy and brush roller heads almost exclusively. I find the other tools not really necessary and, to me, they just create clutter. The exception to that is the crevice tool. I use that occasionally with my deep cleaning. The edge cleaning with this vacuum is phenomenal, and the crevice tool is only used maybe once every other week or so to reach under the sofa or fridge to clean dust or a stray pieces of cereal. I have not used my corded vacuum since purchasing this little vacuum. We are a family of four, with one very sheddy ( is that even a word lol) dog. One of my two teens is in a wheelchair which brings in extra dirt. This little light weight vacuum is all we need, and I love not having to deal with a cord!

Going from a corded vacuum to this vacuum was like a breath of fresh air. The suction on this vacuum is fantastic, I have two cats and you wouldnt know it, and the battery is perfect for my small apartment. If you have a big house, I would recommend a larger Dyson. Mine came with 4 attachments. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Best little vacuum i have ever purchased. Easy to use, light weight and it has excellent suction.

Vacuum is great and light weight. The included stand was a breeze to install and makes storage great.
