I was skeptical when my husband said he'd ordered this. We already have a central vac with a very long hose. I am loving having no cord, no long hose to drag around. I'm neurotic about clean floors, so being able to just grab my Dyson and clean up is wonderful. I couldn't believe all the dirt and cat hair that was in the canister! I'm not sure how I feel about having to wash the parts, but I guess it will be worth it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We find this the most useful handheld vacuum we've ever had. Great suction power and easy to clean and empty.

Sweet machine with 2 very minor issues.

I have had this for a week and use it every day as I have two German Shepherds and two Persian cats. So you can imagine the daily hair clean up. First of all, it works like it is supposed to. My two story four bedroom home is 90% hard floor with a huge area rug in living room, so my first concern was the battery life. After a couple of cleanings, I made it through the whole house on regular high suction and it did an excellent job stairway and all. Now, I was being proficient and working faster than I really wanted to so I can beat the battery. Max power was not needed. Not even for the rug. Not sure what I will need max power for. I was curious and used it after I did the area rug on high power and got nothing in the catch can. So IDK.
Anyway, the two minor issues are dusting and attachments. Micro-dust in the catch can is an issue. It is already building up in the catch can and falls out uncontrollably. I usually have to vacuum it up after I dump the can and re-attach the roller head. This is a common issue with all vacuums.
Attachments: The mount holds two attachments. Not a big deal until you go to fetch one of the other attachments in the area that you decided to store it and you have moved it or placed something in front of it.
Like I said, minor issues.

All the features are great except the battery doesn't last long enough on the max setting. Definitely recommend.

I ordered the Vacuum on 1/29/2021 and I love at which ease I can maneuver this tool. So glad I made the jump to buy one... probably my very last vacuum I will ever purchase.

I love this thing! It’s always ready to go. Good for touch ups or a whole room. I don’t dread vacuuming any more and my husband and I fight to do it.

Superb Design

After one month's frequent use , I am hooked on the Dyson V8 Animal. Cordless. Easy to maneuver. A snap to empty. Powerful suction. Lightweight. Versatile attachments. Good filtration. I used to dread vacuuming, having experienced the first electric brooms decades ago the picked-up little and blew dust in my face. This is an entirely different animal that incorporates a well-thought out design and is engineered to strict tolerances. Even the included mounting stand is brilliantly designed. Although the machine is pricey relative to its peers, in my opinion, it is worth the purchase price. My only two concerns are the possible battery replacement after Dyson's 2-year warranty expires since the battery is hardwired, and the hard floor attachment does not glide as well as other floor attachments. Despite these concerns and observations, the Dyson is clearly a cut above the rest and I highly recommend it.

This would have been a 5 star,.... the function is great, powerful, lightweight, however for the money I felt it should have included a tool for all types of carpet.
