Great vacuum cleaner
on July 1, 2021
Posted by: TONY1976
Gender:Male
The suction power is very good even on the low level. I really like the many attachments
and how easy they are to change. I have only had it for a couple of weeks so I cannot comment on its long term durability.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great machine

This is my second Dyson, my first was the DC 25. I actually bought another cordless competitor and compared them for ease in use, weight and pick up power. I absolutely love this
machine and found it superior in every category! My one criticism would be no headlights that the competitor had.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very short battery life

Works great for about 10 minutes. Then you must recharge it. Very unfortunate. I will not buy another Dyson product.

Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, April 20, 2021
Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you've found the run time from your Dyson V8 Absolute to be so short. Your machine will offer two suction modes, MAX and regular. Right out of the box, the machine will be switched to MAX suction mode. This mode provides a generous boost of suction for larger debris or more stubborn messes. This mode isn't designed for everyday vacuuming, as it only provides about 7-8 minutes of run time. In regular suction mode, you'll receive 30-40 minutes of run time, depending on if you're using a motorized floor tool.
We would value the opportunity to assist with your machine, to help ensure your Dyson is working properly. Please feel free to contact us directly at askdysonUS@dyson.com.
Best wishes,
Kelly

Fantastic upgrades with this Cordless Vacuum
on September 22, 2016
Posted by: KLS96825
Gender:Female
Verified Purchase:Yes
Super powerful - this has as much or more power than my corded Dyson multi-floor Dyson. The smooth floor attachment works wonderfully on my wood and slate floors. It easily picks up even small paper chips and all the dust/dirt - makes cleaning so easy. The carpet attachment cleans the carpet very well. I love the extended time the machine works on each charge - up to 40 min. This is a big improvement from my older cordless vacuums. Comes with 5 attachments that easily change out. I cleaned my bathroom fan vent without having to pull out a step stool - just pointed the vacuum upwards and easily reached the ceiling. Initially I was a tad disappointed that I could not use the same charging attachment from my older cordless vacuums - it is a bit larger so needs its own. After I realized how powerful it was, I realized the size was necessary. Even though it is larger, it is still very light and easy to maneuver. To empty the "dirt collector" is a bit different than the older models. I like it better as the bottom will not accidentally open (occasionally happens with my old cordless vacs). The new process is easy and effective. Another improvement has 3 lights to indicate charge level. I know exactly when it is fully charged and can check to make sure I have enough charge to do the job I'm about to do. I have carpet on my stairs - did a great job cleaning the stairs. In the past I had to use a corded vac on the stairs - which was cumbersome. Using a cordless vac on stairs results in more frequent cleaning! Removing the long pole, the attachments click in to make a short vac. Even my young grandchildren (3 & 5 y.o.) enjoyed vacuuming using the shortened vacuum. I may not need to use my corded vacuums at all with this powerful gem. I highly recommend this powerful machine.

Light and very fast!

I have this vac for about one week! It is really fast, light, and easy to use. It is effective on carpets and bare floors! Wonderful attachments. It is able to clean areas I was not able to get to before. Great on steps! I no longer need to lug a heavy machine upstairs!

Top tiet in every way

Gender:Male
Ordering, customer service, design, support... and then using it... light years ahead of anything else. You get what you pay for. The wall mount itself is a revelation. My only regret is this one doesn't have the locked on switch. It does get tiring on older index fingers...
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not good for pet hair
on February 7, 2022
Posted by: CindyD
Gender:Female
This is my second Dyson cordless vac. The other was a v6. The V6 was much better with pet hair. The V8 gets clogged very easy where in goes into the canister area. Opening to empty the dirt out is not the easiest, I end up with dirt everywhere from pulling and pushing the lever to get it to open. It does pick up very fine dust well but I think I scatter it in the air while trying to open to empt.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, February 9, 2022
Hello Cindy, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that in your use, you have found that your V8 isn't living up to the same performance of your previous V6 model. Our V8 cord-free machines offer more suction, longer run time, and have a more powerful motor in the brush bar that our older machines. The clear dust bin can get clogged with dirt and debris, if you allow that to fill past the max fill line indicated on the side of the bin. In this instance, the debris in the bin can wind up gathering in the upper portion of the bin, around the cyclone, which does make it more difficult to empty.
We'd value the opportunity to assist you, to make sure your Dyson is working properly. Please feel free to contact us directly at askdysonus@dyson.com. We're keen on providing you with support and learning more about your experience.
Best wishes,
Kelly
