CONVENIENT!

It is so easy to just pick up the Dyson and take it to any room. I was hesitant to roll my old vacuum over hardwood floors to reach the carpet in the bedrooms so I'd carry it. It wasn't so much that the old vacuum was heavy but it was cumbersome to lift and carry. Then I'd have to unwind the cord and plug it into a socket that would allow me to reach all of the carpet. And then roll up the cord again to store it. Not so with the Dyson. The Dyson also allows me to vacuum under the bed -- something I couldn't do with my old one. Love it!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Overpriced Vacuum with minimal suction or longevity
on April 23, 2020
Posted by: MinimalistTravelist
Gender:Female
I'm really disappointed with this purchase, especially for the high price tag. It was just ok at the beginning, and we've had this for over a year now. However, I would expect better longivity from a brand like Dyson. The suction power is pretty bad and does not pick up all dirt or hair, especially on hardwoods/tile flooring. It gets clogged constantly with minimal debris and the battery life doesn't last through more than 8 or so minutes. Would not recommend for future purchase, especially when we thought we were investing in a machine that would be with us for a while.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to read your review of the Dyson V8 Absolute, and to learn how disappointed you have been with your machine in your use. Your vacuum, while smaller, lightweight and cordless, can still pack the same power as a corded vacuum cleaner. This will all be thanks to the powerful V8 motor which spins at 110,000rpm, providing you with powerful suction, making our cordless machines the most powerful cordless vacuums. Dyson V8 Absolute also includes a direct drive motorized brush bar, which is designed to provide up to 150% more brush bar power than the Dyson V6 cord free vacuum.
It also sounds unusual to hear that you've found pick-up to be poor on both hard floor or tile. Your machine does come equipped with the soft roller cleaner head, which was engineered specifically for use on bare floors. I'm sorry to hear that you've encountered a short run time with your Dyson V8. 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. Having a shorter run time does sound unusual, and we'd value the opportunity to go over your machine with you.
Please feel free to reach out to us directly at askdysonus@dyson.com. We are keen on providing support.
Best wishes,
Kelly

Is it possible to actually look forward to vacuuming? Yes the Dyson is a bit pricey but it is 100% worth it. I actually vacuum more now if you can believe it.

Powerful and long lasting battery

This is a well designed, powerful cordless vaccum. When it arrived the power head was extremely noisy like it was not balanced properly. I called customer service and they are sending me another power head, but it is out of stock so I am still waiting. If the new one is quieter then I would rate higher.

Hello Stevie, this is Kelly with Dyson. I'm sorry to see from your review, that you have had some trouble with the floor tool on your Dyson V8 Absolute. While I'm not certain from your review if the issue was with the direct drive head, or fluffy soft roller head, we would not expect there to be any issues like this with a brand new machine.
While I understand you have already taken the time to reach out for support with the problem, we'd value the opportunity to learn more regarding your experience, as we're dedicated to customer satisfaction. Please consider emailing us directly at askdysonUS@dyson.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
Kelly
