We love Dyson products and our first vacuum, the DC 25, got to be a little too heavy for my husband and me. We thought about the V6 and decided right away that we needed the V-8 with a little more power. It's perfect for us and cleans extremely well. Love all of the tool attachments. We will always be loyal Dyson product customers.

Works good but wore out faster than expected

Overall a nice vacuum. When you empty the bin you pull up the filter housing. With time the fit became off kilter. Now it is difficult to close it and get a good seal.

Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're glad to hear that overall in your use, you've had such a positive experience with your V8 Absolute. I can confirm that when you do empty the dust bin, the latch will get pulled twice; first to lift the cyclone up out of the bin, and a second time to open the bin base door. The bin door or cyclone can get jammed if the door is closed prior to putting the cyclone back in to place.
To help resolve this, you will want to ensure you only have the handheld portion, with the wand and floor tool removed. Then, lay the machine on its side and look at the underside of the bin. You will see a red tab at the inner spine there, between the bin and the battery. Using a flat head screwdriver, press that red tab back and at the same time, pull the bin down and away from the cyclone. You'll see it pop out slightly (essentially separating from the main body and cyclone), and you should be able to pull the lever up as the bin is disconnected from the cyclone.
After doing this, follow the steps in the video link below to realign the bin back onto the cyclone: https://youtu.be/gc53I9cw4bo?t=33
If this does not resolve the issue, please feel free to reach back out to us via email at askdysonUS@dyson.com. It will be our pleasure to assist further if needed.
Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

Underwhelming

The good thing is that it literally feels like it is sucking the floor and getting the thinnest layer of dust. The battery is awful, I cannot finish one room properly before the battery dies. Secondly, it doesn't feel sturdy or high quality. I also don't like how the top is heavy and the bottom is not, it is hard on the wrists. Definitely not wowed or amazed at the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello, this is Kelly with Dyson. We are sorry to hear that you've found the run time with your Dyson V8™ vacuum to be so short. You do have two suction modes; regular and MAX. MAX provides a boost of suction and up to 7 minutes of run time. This makes MAX ideal for larger debris or more stubborn messes, rather than everyday cleaning. Regular suction mode offers up to 40 minutes of run time (30 when using a motorized attachment).
If you feel that your V8™ might be malfunctioning, we do offer a two-year warranty on this product. Feel free to reach out via email at askdysonUS@dyson.com for assistance.
Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support
