Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

This vacuum is really incredible. Its quiet, lightweight, great maneuverability, easy to dump the dust canister, doesnt tangle hair, has a long lasting battery - and the suction is really amazing. Suction: The suction is extremely powerful, and far exceeds my expectations. There are 2 different suction/power settings, and on setting 2, its so powerful that I often find the vacuum getting stuck to my carpet. It is maybe even more powerful than my corded upright vacuum. Size: This vacuum is a great size. Its pretty light and very easy to maneuver. It steers very well and is in general a pleasure to use. The dust canister isnt huge, but it holds a lot of dust and hair. I typically have to empty it a couple times per cleaning session, but its quite easy to dump and this is not an issue. Attachments: The vacuum comes with the main brushroll, plus 3 attachments: one for dusting, a crevice tool, and a roller for removing hair from furniture. They all work very well and are very easy to attach. This vacuum is perfect for dusting and thats my favorite aspect of it. The brushroll is also great and I love how good it is at not tangling hair. Other rollers Ive used have a constant problem with tangling hair - but not this one. Noise level: Super quiet. Even on the high suction mode this vacuum is quiet. I usually need earbuds or earplugs when vacuuming, but not with this one. Thoughts: Overall - this is really an excellent vacuum. By far the best cordless stick vacuum I have used. The suction is amazing for such a small and lightweight device, and the battery lasts way longer than I expected. If you like the canister size and attachments, this is a great vacuum and you will love it.

I rented a condo in Florida this year they had this Dyson in the unit... I loved it! I came home and bought one for myself and am not disappointed. The only issue I have with the vacuum itself is that it says that it has a 40 minute charge. Ive discovered that I can only vacuum one floor of my house at a time before it runs out of battery life (about 15 minutes). Mine was obviously built in Mexico because ALL of the directions came in Spanish so I had to figure out how to put it together and hang it up without instructions. I ended up calling Dyson directly and they sent me online videos which were perfect. I love the vacuum, I just wish it held the charge as long as its advertised to do.

I like that it’s rechargeable. I love the interchangeable parts. It’s very powerful. I use it in the house. My daughter uses it in her car. My Dad has one which is why I purchased it. I love how easy it is to dump the dirt. My first time using I wasn’t aware of the max dirt level. The vacuum started hesitating when it was over the level. Now I know and am attentive to monitoring . I love it.

Light weight and does a great job cleaning our hard floors and throw rugs..

Battery dies after 10 minutes. Useless! Would not return since I was out of town for a month and missed the return period by 6 days. So disappointed in this company. Beware!

Product quit after 2 months. Dyson is a good brand, just not sure about who I got it from

I mostly got this vacuum for all the places that my regular vac cant reach and it does not disappoint. It was super easy to put together and very use to use. I can vac much farther under furniture now, vac the stairs super easily. I can even vac the dog hair that is stuck to the memory foam mattress topper that my old vac couldnt tackle. There is a little bit of friction trying to push her around the carpet, but thats what the upright vac is for. She glides super easily on non carpeted flooring surfaces. The things I dont really care for - the battery capacity isnt that great if youre trying to clean the whole house, especially if you put it on max suction so use that sparingly. So far Im really impressed with how much it sucks up and how easy it is to use.

Totally unacceptable. I was given and defective machine and still get charged $85 for a restocking fee? This should be criminal. What an absolute joke.

Where to start, this is a BAD vacuum. Suction is so terrible, I kept passing over SAME strands of hair and dust collections again and again, turns out if you add ANYTHING to the vacuum any extension tube it comes with or its accessories the suction is GONE. I test and feel with my hand, quite good suction without anything attached, put just a brush and suction drops to nothing. Maneuverability is terrible, back and forth only. Every extension is stiff no joints does not permit movement. Corners and edges and this vacuum neither has power nor shape to clean there. MAX power overheats and the battery life on MAX is 3 minutes, no joke, in just 3 minutes only cleaned under the desk and from full battery went depleted. After depleting, I placed vac in the charger and already had 2 LEDs like it charged some instantly meaning the battery already having cell memory effect. Filter is cleaned and dust bin is empty after each use. Nothing to excuse it here, this is just a terrible vacuum.

This arrives in a large box that somehow is also surprisingly small. I think that gives an early indication of the small but mighty quality of this vacuum. When you take this out, you will see that it has a small charge. Resist the urge to use this, and, instead, plug it in. Now, its going to take some time to charge. Therefore, be patient. While this is supposed to be wall mounted, we could not do that since we do not have a closet with an outlet and we didnt want to leave this visible on a wall. (And, perhaps, more importantly, we didnt want to have to spackle and paint when we moved on from this appliance). Therefore, we just charge this in the spare bedroom and then tuck it in a closet when done. And, it does need to be noted that this cannot take the place of your corded vacuum. Even with a full charge, the battery life is very short: maybe twenty to thirty minutes. (And, charger is not fast). When you pick this up, it is so easy to bump the activation button. In fact, Im not certain I have ever picked this up and NOT turned it on by accident. Maybe the button needs a cover or to be placed in a different area? And, just as a note, you must squeeze the on button for this to work. You cannot turn it on and it stays on. You must always hold the trigger down. I think thats a pretty serious hint that this isnt meant to clean you entire home in one session. So, why the five stars? Because this works like nothing else. We have two Roombas on each floor. They run every other day and everything seems very clean. But when I slowly ran this over the areas rugs, I was stunned at not only the hair, but the debris. I mean ... stunned! When I was done with all of the area rugs, I had dumped the bin three times. My better-half was as surprised as I. And, of course, he ended up vacuuming all of the cars ... and even took it to my dads house (because hes on the same Roomba program as we are) and doing all of my dads rugs! Hes wild about this thing! Its his new toy. The power and effectiveness is positively incomparable! We have been using this for about a month. Our opinion has not changed. This is a truly amazing device that allows for next-level cleaning (and if your children have allergies or asthma, you know how important a deep clean is). Weighing everything, I can only very highly recommend this. Another way to keep your home super tidy! Wow!
