I like it but …
on November 1, 2021

This vacuum has great suction which is key for a vacuum but I hate that the air always seems to blow in my face. It comes out of the purple ring just above the trigger. I also hate that the instructions are just pictures, no words or explanations of what the attachments are best used for either. I don’t want to have to google everything :/
I would recommend this to a friend!
Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, November 2, 2021
Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're glad to hear that thus far in your use, you've been able to appreciate the powerful suction that the Dyson V8 provides. Your machine offers two modes of suction, for picking up any size mess in your home. Regular suction offers up to 40 minutes of run time, and MAX provides a boost of power and up to 7 minutes of run time. MAX suction mode is ideal for bigger debris or messes that are harder to clean.
With regard to the exhaust, since the motor is essentially in your hand, that is where the exhaust from the machine exits. We would advise to keep the motor part away from the face, to prevent that air from blowing directly on you. Regarding the attachments, there is no right or wrong way to use the majority of the tools. With the Absolute model you do have the fluffy soft roller head, and that tool is only designed to be used on hard floors. You can take a look at our V8 "Getting Started" video on our website here: https://www.dyson.com/support/journey/guides/229602-01?machineId=229602-01
If you still have any questions or concerns regarding your machine, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly via email at askdysonUS@dyson.com. We'll be glad to help!
Best wishes,
Kelly

Bought this item a couple of week ago and it is just great. Very easy to use, battery lasts between 30-40 mins. Love not having to pull my animal out and using a cords and not able to get into hard to get areas. It is also very quiet. Glad I purchased this great vacuum cleaner.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lightweight great

We purchased this vacuum because we needed one that is light weight, maneuverable, cordless, and has the mechanical ability to extract dirt and so much more. This machine is great in that it removes all the dirt, is easy to clean out the dirt-holding area, and maintains a charge sufficient enough to vacuum my entire condo.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super handy!

I’d been wanting a smaller handheld Dyson since we downsized 2 years ago. SO WORTH IT! Easy to use & empty the canister. I can get around our apartment in no time. I still love our full size Dyson but this guy is perfect for smaller spaces & quick clean ups. We leave it on the charger all the time so it’s always ready!

Seriously—It's a Dyson

I share a small apartment-sized living area with my wife and dog—and this cordless Dyson is perfect for our situation. (It could probably handle at least three times the space—1,500 sq. feet, perhaps—on one charge.) No hassle, powerful but lightweight, all with easy-to-use attachments and out-of-the-way storage. I also like how nimble the main floor attachments are for getting around office chairs and table legs. You want complete flexibility, quick-use functionality? I doubt you could find a better vacuum than this. It's like Dyson engineers were thinking of me when they crafted it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dyson V8

I purchased the Dyson V8 to replace the old cordless vacuum that burnt out and am so happy that I did! Love all the attachments and the bag to store them in and the power is phenomenal! Going to try out the car attachment this weekend and looking forward to no more icky vacuum hoses at the car wash!
I would recommend this to a friend!
