I love my first ever Dyson, the cordless v8 Animal. Without Kenmore, I had to go with a new brand after so many decades, and some fellow residents (at) where I live recommended Dyson. I do love seeing my dirt, dust, and other interesting particles collect in the transparent bin -- and to empty it cleanly!
I also love it's modular design. It makes it so flexible to clean virtually everything you can think of.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GREAT GREAT GREAT Vacuum, but it is a SHOCKER!!!
on February 14, 2017
Posted by: BB1986

This is a Great Lightweight, Long-Lasting, and Easy to Use Vacuum but two things I have problems with are:
1. Constant ZAPPING from the handle.
2. I have to manually hold the button to use the device.
1. The shocking/zapping from the handle is an issue I consider to be a major problem. This zapping normally occurs when used over carpet, and that's when the vacuum will shock me. I called Dyson and was told that this is a known issue and that this is caused by static shock. I was asked to wipe the unit down with a "dryer sheet". This did temporarily stop the static shock but the issue still persist. Please keep in mind that this is not limited to my Dyson V8 and that I was told this is a known issue.
2. If you purchase this vacuum you will noticed that its designed like a gun and you musts constantly hold the trigger while vacuuming. After some time your index finger may become fatigued because Dyson didn't add a latch that will keep the device on like every other vacuum I've used. Imagine using a conventional upright vacuum and you have to continue to press and hold the power button while cleaning your floors.....ummmm I don't think that would work for the buyer.
Now!!!!!! besides a few zaps/shocks here and there and a cramped index finger this product is AMAZING,FANTASTIC,SUPERB,FIRST-CLASS, WONDERFUL,FAVORABLE,SPLENDID, and all other synonyms I cant think of at the moment for just being great!!. It will go everywhere I need it to go and reach areas I normally couldn't reach with a bulky conventional vacuum. The suction is extremely powerful, even though there is switch to change the suction to regular to most powerful I generally stick with the regular suction and haven't had the need to switch to the most powerful setting.. That works great for me I strongly urge others who purchase the Dyson V8.....oh and by the way these are my thoughts on the Dyson V8 and this is not a paid review although I wish it was....hahahha Thanks for reading and please Have a Great Day.....

Second Dyson

I always thought Dysons were overpriced and that surely other vacuums work just as well so I made the mistake of buying a Chinese knock-off. It worked decently the first time but afterwards kept getting clogged so I bit the bullet and bought a Dyson. It cleans all the things! Never clogs and is easy to dump. It almost makes cleaning fun. I love the convenience of it being cordless so no more getting out the dusty vacuum from the closet, unwrapping the cord and plugging it in. I have wood ceilings so I clean above my head nearly as much as the floor and having a lightweight powerful vacuum to do the job is a back-saver. When I see pet hair tumbleweeds I grab my always ready vacuum and go for it. I liked it so much I bought a second one so I could have one on each floor of my home.

Nifty Handling

So far I am very happy with the cordless vacuum. Was surprised at how strong the suction is. The ability to use it on both hard floors and the carpets is wonderful. The accessories its comes with are all inclusive in the. variety of jobs you can use them for in the house or in the car. The biggest plus I found was the vacuums light weight, this made it very easy to reach the nooks and crannies that a normal vacuum cleaner would have difficulty with.
Yes, I would for sure recommend it to a friend or anyone who needs a 21st century vacuum cleaner.

Great assist for my carpal tunnel issues

With increasing carpal tunnel pain I decided to splurge on this incredible machine and it is a dream come true! Such mighty suction and great accessories make my cleaning jobs a breeze. The softer wood floor attachment is so nice with more wood in our new home and now I don't dread cleaning tiny bits here and there knowing I don't have to bring out the bigger Animal vac I still love and use on my rugs and carpets. Thank you Dyson for yet another great idea :)

Wonderful cordless vacuum

I have had the V6 vacuum for several years and I liked it for quick jobs and sofa/chair cleaning. I wished that it had more power and the battery lasted longer so that I could replace my corded vacuum. I am thrilled that I made this purchase as it does everything I need to be totally CORD FREE. I have the best of both worlds now with the V-6 for furniture and quick pick ups and the V-8 to complete cleaning the entire house.

Great vacuum!!
on April 16, 2021

I love this vacuum and have always wanted a Dyson. It picks up more than any other vacuum I've had. I used my previous vacuum and then then Dyson over the same area and still got a lot more dirt. I also love that it is cordless and I don't get tangled up in the cord.
