You're Paying For The Name
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: Floyd
Gender:Female
Bought this assuming it would be as great as my upright plug-in that I've had for years. It's not. If you have arthritis the trigger handle will be difficult for you, especially since you need to hold it the entire time you're using the vacuum. My finger is tired at the end of cleaning! It DOES NOT last 45 minutes on a full charge... it needed to be recharged before I was able to finish vacuuming our 1,015 sg ft apartment. I wish I hadn't thrown out my old plug-in, this one just isn't worth the price and I feel you're only paying for the name.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, February 23, 2021
Hi Floyd, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you're not having a better experience with your Dyson V8 Absolute. We know that battery run time is a very important aspect of performance for our owners, so we developed a trigger that helps maximize the amount of time you can clean on one charge. We chose a light-touch trigger over an on/off switch to ensure that battery life is never wasted by letting the machine run when it's not in active use.
Regarding the run time, your vacuum will come with standard and Max power modes. Our cordless models also have a run-time enhancing light touch trigger which ensures battery power is only used when the trigger is pushed. In Max power run time will be up to 7 minutes, and in standard power, you can expect run times of up to 30-40 minutes depending on which tool or attachments you are using. We'd like to go over your machine with you, to help make sure it's performing as intended. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at askdysonus@dyson.com. We are keen on providing support.
Best wishes,
Kelly

Amazing! technology

I simply love my new vacuum! I know it is crazy to love a vacuum, but it is so easy to use. And I can do a quickie clean up where ever I need to without dragging out a large vacuum. The technology is so very clever, even with how it dumps the bin.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great machine - hate the scuff marks and...

Happy with the performance so far.. less than 30 days since I purchased it bought it to get rid of long pet hair and sand on my bed and on all tile floor.
Have couple of issues a) very visible scuff marks on the long tube which sometimes tends to rub against the under edges of furniture. b) the bottom lid also does not always automatically close 100% of the time.
I did not receive any free product to help me write this review..
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love how it's not pulled into an outlet

I use my Dyson to clean the interior of our car as well as all over the house.
It's great for picking up dust & dirt on hardwood floors even under our bed.
I used it to clean out spider webs in the garage.
The other parts are so handy, I have them in a basket & use so many each week!
Love my Dyson & so glad I made the investment.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a great vacumn for tidying up. We use a corded Dyson for our deep clean. The battery life is great and I like the LED lights to indicate battery status. Suction is great and its wonderful on stairs. Get one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
