Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

I purchased this product a second time for my grandmother so she can have an easier time tidying up around her house. Its safe to say that she was thoroughly impressed and loved taking it for a spin once I helped set everything up for her.

The item I bought was $$$280-ish and then as I’m returning it I see on Amazon I paid almost 400 it’s going back.

I purchased this product directly from dyson website. I always loved dyson and wanted to give it try the cordless one. The 40 min is on low, if you use it on high the vacuum time around 30 min. It of course started dropping the time. After 1 year it would only work 20 ish min after being fully charged. Now i can only use it for 5 mins.. its disappointing because dyson is a great brand and the parts and all not cheap to replace every time you get an issue with the product. Would not recommend a cordless one. I also have canister and also have upright. Used the upright for years and years with no issue. Go with one that has a cord, i advice. I always done the proper cleaning, and cleaned the filter in a timely manner. These are expensive vacuum cleaners and hard to replace them everytime it gives an issue. I would not buy a cordless dyson again.

I bought this vaccuum eleven months ago. It worked for the first 10 months and then stopped charging. I keep this vacuum attached to its docking station on the wall in a nice neat broom closet I use it only to pick up kitchen crumbs two to three times a week. I called Dyson and they decided I needed a new battery pack. I waited for it for two weeks. I installed it and tried charging for a few days and it still wouldnt charge. I called again (by now Im almost a month without this vacuum) and now they are saynig I need a new docking assembly. So, now i will be waiting another two weeks to receive and install it. I hope this will tesolve the issue. Update: I received the promised docking assembly that turned out just to be a piece of plastic for mounting on the wall that has nothing to do with charging. Called again and was told that they will send me a new unit after I return my original vacuum. Just checked UPS tracking and found out that Dyson received my old vacuum three business days ago. So far no communication from them. Im almost two months without the vacuum that cost me about $400.

Works great!!! Can get a little heavy after long usage but works like a million dollar machine!

The V8 is another excellent cordless vacuum by Dyson. I had it going within a few minutes of unboxing it and immediately went to task on cleaning up the living room and guest room. I was able to vacuum every nook and cranny with the V8 before the battery died, however I noticed that I would need to recharge it to complete the entire house (actually had to do this a few days later, we have a 5 bedroom home on two stories with a sunroom so I needed two charge cycles to complete it all). Other than the battery capacity I have no criticisms, its an absolute pleasure to vacuum with.

Muy fácil de manejar, aspira súper bien y la puedes usar todo el tiempo como escoba, comprenlaaaa la va a amar!!

Sophisticated and versatile light-weight device. Powerful clean - a quality of life wonder : )

I was surprised about how small this is. Its very thin, but Im amazed and how good the suction is. It leaves vacuum tracks!! I love vacuum tracks. Its very easy to push around. The main vacuum head has a ball joint where it connects, so its super easy to turn and move around. This kind of tripped me up because it doesnt feel like it should be dragging along the floor, but if its not against the floor, it doesnt really suction. It just looks a little weird because of the join proportions between the two parts, but it still works good. Its decently easy to put together, but it has A LOT of parts/accessories. Also, the instructions are really poor. Theres no words, so it would have been nice to have a little bit more detail, but I did figure it out. When the instructions say click it really does click. The parts snap together super easily, and theyre easy to take apart. One unfortunate thing is that it cannot stand up on its own. In order for it to stand up, the instructions say to install the wall holder, which requires drilling holes into the wall (which I cannot do in an apartment, so kind of stinky). I end up just laying it against a corner, which works, but its kind of annoying. It would have been nice if it could stand on its own. Overall, its a pretty nice vacuum. Its very small, but its still incredibly powerful. Very easy to move around. I recommend!!

This is what I picked up in the first 8-10 minutes of use. I mainly got it for the steps and the area in front of the litter boxes and oh my god this thing is powerful!
