Much better than the V6 we had: stronger & quieter + cleaner to breathe!
BUT a major loss compared to the V6, is that my expensive array of tools from our Big Ball will no longer FIT our battery operated unit! Examples are our dog groomer tool & the twine turbine brush tool.
PLEASE MAKE AN ADAPTER so I don't have to BUY complete duplicates of ALL my tools! The V6 made my wife SICK whenever she tried to use it by blowing dust into her face--and this improvement makes the V8 much improved. An adapter for my other Dyson tools will get you the 5th Star!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to use.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and the Dyson is very easy to use. I have no carpeting in my home and it only takes about 20 minutes to vacuum the house! I have yet to use it for blinds but that is for next weeks spring cleaning chore. I have used it on upholstered chairs. My husband also has used the Dyson and likes it very much. We are pleased with our purchase and feel it will make our lives easier!

Easily Reaches hard to access places

I love this vacuum as it makes vacuuming in hard to reach places and stairs much easier than my previous vacuum. I wish it had a little more battery though. I do tend to use max suck all the time.

I finally got my cordless Dyson !!!
on February 15, 2020
Posted by: NenLop
I finally got a cordless Dyson that lasts for 40 minutes with a car cleaning kit. However I am so disappointed due to the following reasons:
1. If you use the maximum suction which is the only one that works really well you have more
like 10 minutes instead of 40 minutes.
2. It took me about 2 days to vacuum my car because it kept turning off every 10 minutes even
though it was fully charged.
3. You can not vacuum and charge it at the same time.
4. It takes forever to charge.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I LOVE THIS POWERFUL LITTLE DYSON! It does a wonderful job vacuuming as well as dusting lamp shades and before now hard to reach corners both on the floor and ceiling! Great for picking up destroyed doggie toys (yes we have a puppy!) Love the long battery life too! The no touch canister disposal is awesome too! This is our third Dyson product and it is the best of them all!

I love all the attachments and how easy it is to switch them out. This will also come in handy for quick RV cleanups. Very pleased so far.

My favorite household investment

We purchased the V8 Absolute about 2 weeks ago for a new apartment that needed a lot of deep cleaning and have loved it ever since. We use it every single day to vacuum the entire hardwood floor apartment! I charge it overnight and aside from when we use the max boost, which is very rare given the normal suction is more than enough, it has never died on me. The cordless feature is super helpful and with the included attachments, we can get just about every surface in our home. I would recommend this device to everyone!
