Should have bought it sooner

I love my Dyson vacuum. My husband wanted me to get one for a long time and I resisted. I finally gave in and bought one and I couldn't be happier. It is so convenient to use and the suction is great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works great on my hardwood floor.

My husband bought this for me for Christmas, and I like the way it cleans my hardwood floor, but what I don't understand is why there is no latch to hold down the button while you vacuum, you have to hold down the button the whole time you vacuum. I have a small 3 bedroom house and before I was done vacuuming, I had a very large blister on my thumb from the top of the handle rubbing against it due to having to hold down the button. The blister took 3 weeks to heal, I now know I can only vacuum my kitchen with it, so I don't end up with another blister. And if I'm being honest the blister is still not fully healed. Also the battery was dead by the time I got to the last room of my house. It does clean really good, just would have been a game changer if there was a latch to lock in place to run the vacuum. Especially for the price!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, December 28, 2021
Hello, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're glad to hear that you've liked the way your V8 Absolute cleans your home - especially your hardwood. The fluffy soft roller head was engineered specifically for use on bare and hard surfaces, with woven fibers to help capture dust while cleaning. We know that battery run time is a very important aspect of performance for our owners, so we developed a trigger that helps maximize the amount of time you can clean on one charge. We chose a light-touch trigger over an on/off switch to ensure that battery life is never wasted by letting the machine run when it's not in active use.
We would certainly not expect a blister to occur as a result of using your Dyson product. If you are finding this to be your experience, we would recommend holding the unit lower down the handle to prevent rubbing or pressure on the top of your hand. Please also keep in mind that Dyson cordless vacuums will feature a runtime enhancing light touch trigger, which requires little pressure to run the unit as well. It may also prove helpful to ensure the unit is held with a firm, but not a very tight grasp, given that the light touch trigger does not require a very hard press or grasp to operate. If we can ever be of assistance with anything else, please do not hesitate to let us know.
Best wishes,
Kelly

So far, great machine!

Got this about a month ago, put it together (very easy) got my brother-in-law to install a receptacle in a closet, charged it the rest of the day, and voila! I vacuumed the kitchen and living room rug and hardwood floor as well as the stair and the blue light said I had power to do more. AND, my back did not ache! I've used it at least 3 times a week and both my sisters are sold on it so expect 2 more sales, not sure which model they'll choose. Thanks Dyson for a good product.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the attachments, one for every job. Great on hardwood as well as carpet, stair attachment makes stairs easy and cleans exceptionally well. No cords and canisters to get tangled up in. Love how easy it is to empty with every use, so clean! Easy wall mount makes for great storage and ready to use always charged.

Fun to use

This product seems a little delicate based on the plastic that is used. Time will tell. The waste canister is handsfree to empty; however, if your trash can is partially full and you cannot stick the canister into the can the dust will go everywhere. I like the charging unit for the wall, the tools are easy to use and of course, it is lightweight which is great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is my first real vacuum. I couldn’t be happier. I mainly only have hardwood/tiled floors with a pupper and it’s does such a great job. Makes vacuuming easy and quick. So many attachments.
I would recommend this to a friend!
