The trigger button is hard to hold in causing it to go off and on as you are vacuuming. Staying on by itself would be much easier
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this vacuum! I love it best in turbo, but the battery is pretty short lived in turbo mode. The dust cup is a bit small, but overall,,, I love it!
I like not having to take my canister plug in all over the house and it is easy to maneuver. I would prefer an on/off button instead of having to hold down the "on" button consistently
I bought the V8 during a Labor Day sale and to replace the DC07 which I had for over 20 years. The flexibility of the V8 and various attachments are impressive, however the battery length is woefully short even for use in a small apartment. I would expect Dyson to create an engine that lasts longer than 7 minutes even for turbo mode.

I love this Dyson 6 vacuum, because it cuts up the hair and it's not wrapped around the wheel. The ease of cleaning is awesome. I Love Dyson vacuums, this is my second vacuum in 10 years.
So far, the vacuum itself is wonderful. I do however, wish it had some sort of locking mechanism so the floor attachment didn’t flop everywhere. The plastic makes it feel slightly flimsy. But, really, the only complaint I’d have is the vacuum comes with three attachments, but the charging station only comes with two storage spots for attachments. But, I do love the vacuum and I will continue to buy Dyson vacuums. It’s holding up to the two dogs and one cat we have, and that’s a lot of hair and dirt. I also love how the debris is emptied
