my second Dyson. one for upstairs one for downstairs. have a dog and use it every single day. does the job with ease.cant think of one thing I would change.
My husband bought the Dyson a month ago. It does a great job, but the trigger for the ON position is awkward. It becomes tiresome to hold onto and turns on when you don't want it on. Meaning when you grab the handle it turns on before you are prepared to use it.
You do not have an attachment available for hard wood or tile flooring.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of an attachment for hardwood or tile flooring. Your insights are important to us, and we regret any disappointment you’ve experienced.
Please contact our customer care team at askdysonUS@dyson.com so we can assist you further. Your satisfaction is our priority.
The vacuum itself is fine. I gave a low rating because it does not come with a paper manual. I do realize that the information is available “on line” but that is HORRIBLY INCONVENIENT!! It’s MUCH FASTER to just grab a paper manual and look quickly. I HATE having to grab my tablet/computer turn it on and search for the website. By the time I do that I could have already answered my question by simply LOOKING AT A BOOK. P. S…….not EVERYONE HAS ACCESS TO THE INTERNET!! I do but there are still millions of people without that option. You make enough money on your products to be able to afford printing manuals for your products. VERY DISAPPOINTING !!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A fully charged vacuum ran less than 30 minutes. The product is brand new.
Response from DysonBy Jasvir Singh, customer service, March 27, 2025
Hello, thank you for your feedback and for sharing your experience with the Dyson V8 Origin. We understand how frustrating it can be when a brand-new product doesn't perform as expected. The Dyson V8 Origin is designed to provide up to 40 minutes of fade-free suction on a single charge, depending on the mode used. If your vacuum is running for less than 30 minutes, there might be an issue with the battery or the vacuum itself. We recommend checking for any blockages in the vacuum that might be affecting its performance. Additionally, ensure that the battery is fully charged, and that the charger is functioning correctly. We would like to look further into this for you. For detailed information, please feel free to email us at askdysonus@dyson.com and include ‘Dyson Review’ in the subject line for prompt attention to this matter.
Very disappointed with this vacuum. I have never had a vacuum that didn't have a floor light. Emptying the bin is very cumbersome. Have to be on my knees to get under furniture. Having to hold the on switch constantly, no one and off switch, is such a pain. Doesn't fold or stand alone. One setting for floors and carpet. Had high hopes for this vacuum but it's below an entry level for a huge price. If my husband hadn't thrown out the box I would have taken it back.

NO THANKS! I ACTUALLY CLEAN!!!

If all you care about is dropping a large amount of cash for being a member of the DYSON club? Then this “baby” Dyson is for you!! It looks pretty hanging on the wall because you probably don’t actually clean your own house. You hire someone to do it for you. BUT IF YOU have children and pets. If you have dust and dirt. If you LIVE in your home and need to clean it??? THIS IS NOT THE VACUUM TO BUY! Trust me!! I am a career “stay at home mom with kids and 2 dogs. Vacuuming is my religion!! I do it twice a day. I jumped on the DYSON BANDWAGON and quickly bailed!! I was so excited AT FIRST. Then I realized first go around that using the max setting too often was a BAD IDEA! The battery died after 7 MINUTES!! What? Ok. Lesson learned. Charge. 2nd attempt- this time NO MAX. I begin. 24 minutes later, BATTERY DEAD AGAIN!!!! This is NOT the vacuum for me!! I ACTUALLY CLEAN!! I takes me 20 minutes JUST TO VACUUM the STAIRS!! I don’t have time for multiple charges! TO DYSON, y’all need to go back to the drawing board on this one OR ADD a good old fashioned PLUG IN!!! RIDICULOUS!! I would give this negative stars if that was possible!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello, this is Teanna with Dyson. I am so sorry to see from your review that you have experienced some issues with your Dyson. I'm very sorry to hear that your experience hasn't been up to our normal high standard. We do our best to provide a first class service to all our customers, I'm concerned to see that we've disappointed you on this occasion.
I am very pleased with my Dyson V8. My only complaint is that I wish I didn't have to hold the power button the whole time to keep it running. Would prefer an off/on switch.
