NO REGRETS in buying ever!! Great suction! I had dropped a Brussels sprout that went under the frig and the Dyson pulled it out!!! Love that it is lightweight and easy to maneuver on carpet or solid floors!

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review. We love hearing that your machine’s lightweight design and strong performance are making a real difference in your home. We truly appreciate you being part of the Dyson family.
I love the Dyson machine except on this model I’m having difficulty emptying the bin. It’s not as well thought out as the rest of the machine. There are three ways to empty but none are smooth and easy. The first method of pulling the trash tab towards you doesn’t release the catch on the bottom of the machine. And it’s hard to push the tank/engine back down. Completely don’t comprehend the second method by pushing down on the top. The third method works but is not easy. And you can’t do it “on the move”. It looks like it would be but it’s too frustrating and you have to stop, remove the stick to maneuver and hope the clip releases.

I was thrilled on April 7 2026 when I received my dysonV8. Last night I tried my vacuum and it wouldn't work so I carefully plugged it in and this morning tried again. The lights on the side of the holder came on. Left it for 4 hours, went back to try it again and NOTHING HAPPENED. Please tell me what is wrong Have not book, only Q quick start paper in the box. HELP ME! This is the only way I found to be able to reach you
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Got this a month ago and love most everything about it. It’s light, easy to use, and convenient. It’s much quieter than a standard plug in. I have lots of steps in my house and this works wonders on them. My biggest complaint with it is that the trigger is tiring to use after about five minutes. It’s a smooth pull but has no locking feature or hold functionality so your fingers get tired even with breaks.
I returned it yesterday, I got a Callouse on my right thumb from having to hold down the button when vacuuming. I loved the power it had however I wish the battery lasted longer. The wind that blew out of it while vacuuming was annoying. I was so excited to finally get one but now super disappointed.
