I bought this new and used it one time before it stopped working. Had to return.

We replaced an expensive well known brand with the Dyson v9 motorbar. It is so lightweight it feels like a toy, but a toy it is not !!! We have had the v9 for a few weeks now and it keeps pulling up hair and dirt that we didn’t know was embedded into the carpets. What is amazing is that with all the hair that had been picked up by the vacuum, not a single strand is wrapped around the brush bar. The engineering is incredible right down to the packaging it came in. The technology is astounding as it alerts you and displays a tutorial on how to clean and replace the secondary filter.

I bought one first and had to return it within 2 months. One of the red buttons stopped operating. The replacement is great so far.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your first Dyson V9 Submarine Extra developed an issue with the red button so soon after purchase.

If you have any further questions or need assistance going forward, please reach out to our chat or voice support team. Your satisfaction matters, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience. Thank you again for your feedback.
The Dyson is great, but whoever designed it with a trigger that has to be depressed the whole time you're using it made a serious mistake. What's wrong with an on/off switch? I can't do my whole house with it because my trigger finger won't last that long.

Not a bad vacuum. But a few issues I would have liked to know about before buying. Very small dust bin. Filter requires frequent washing and 24 hrs to dry before smother vacuum session. Instructions are for illiterates. I am not so I had a lot of problems understanding them. Battery life was ok. Easy to use.

My second Dyson. I had a v6 for years. It was time to replace it. So I tried this newer model. Very pleased.

Five stars and a returning Dyson owner—there’s no higher compliment. It’s great to hear that after years with your V6, moving to a newer model has delivered the satisfaction you expected. Thank you for coming back to the brand and for taking the time to share how pleased you are with the upgrade.
I received this as a gift for my birthday, and I love it! The only problem is that the battery just suddenly stopped working about 2 weeks after I started using it. Battery shows fully charged but the unit won’t turn on. We bought a new battery, and it’s worked great since. I love how easy it is to get under furniture, to pick up small messes without needing the heavy vacuum, and so far I’ve used 3 attachments on a regular basis. Our cleaning lady definitely prefers using this to our regular size vacuum! I need to figure out replacing the battery under warranty, but I love this handy vacuum and highly recommend it!

Your satisfaction is important to us, and we remain dedicated to helping you get the most from your Dyson machine. Thank you again for your input and recommendation.
The best thing is that everything comes apart for easy cleaning. Lots of hair was wrapped around the motor bar but was easily cleaned because I took it apart and removed the hair with no problem. Would be nice to have a lock on the trigger switch to ease any finger fatigue. Would also be nice to have some type of mechanism at the universal joint at the bottom of the stick to keep the unit upright and standing on its own. Otherwise, a great machine.
