Customer Ratings & Reviews

This Dyson has powerful suction with an option for "Max" suction. It's easily maneuvered into corners and around objects. I love the Hand held, Power Stair attatchment. I couldn't give this a "5 star" rating because the wand head is too tall to go under a lot of furniture and the "canister emptying process" is awkward and messy. Worth the money.

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

Absolutely LOVE this vacuum! My husband loves it too and actually uses it every night.

I was surprised and pleased with the power of this vacuum. It is well made and feels good in your hand to use. Pleased with all the attachments. A little glitch in opening to clean the canister but finally figured it out. Worth the extra money for this product.

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.

Great for quick clean ups when I don’t have time to bring out the big vac to do the whole house

I didn’t realize I could love a vacuum was much as I love this one. It’s light, cordless, quiet, and has plenty of detachable heads.

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.

Lifechanging. There is no substitute. Sure, the battery could last a bit longer but plan ahead and you'll be more than satisfied with the suction, portability and ease of use with (at least for me) zero maintenance. Note: I purchased two of these during the holiday season from BB for $350 each. You generally don't see that type of reduction and price on Dyson. Couldn't pass it up. Separate comment on quality. My first Dyson (purchased approx. 10 yrs. ago) still works like new. I'm embarrassed to say I've never performed any recommended maintenance on it... Nor have needed to replace any parts. Charge it and go. Empty. Charge and go. Lastly it charges relatively quick (about an hour).

It works really good but the battery doesn’t last very long if it’s on max power. We use low on the hard wood then kick it into high for the carpet and rugs. The catch can is also very small.

Excellent performance. The only short coming is the way you empty the canister. It is difficult and a bit awkward.

This vacuum is light, works amazingly well and has a number of attachments that make it very versatile. Because your not hampered by the cord while using it, vacuuming is less restricted and goes much faster. Whether it's a small spill or doing an entire room, it works great. Had it for more than 2 years of daily use and it still goes and goes.

I love my handy dandy vacuam. It is light and has good suction. He gets the job done, even jn tight spaces!

Great cordless vacuum, seems like quality build, picks up dirt efficiently, fair price, Best Buy delivered to my home fast!

I was looking for something that without cable chargeable because my house it’s too big as that one. I’m really happy with it and I have seven pets. There is no even one here in my house right now.

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!

This is the best vacuum! It has strong suction, lightweight, and easily moves across all floors.

Best vacuum ever! Light weight and versatile. Sucks everything! The battery life is ok. It drains fast in Max suction

This is my second Dyson. I love these vacuums. Great buy!

Great power and easy to use. Lightweight, portable with great accessories.
