Customers value the V8 Animal Cordless Stick Vacuum's ease of use, powerful suction, and lightweight design. Many appreciate its cordless convenience and strong performance, along with the helpful attachments. However, some customers point to the battery life as needing improvement, and a few mention the price point and dustbin capacity as potential drawbacks. The vacuum's noise level is also a factor for some users.

    This vacuum is light, works amazingly well and has a number of attachments that make it very versatile. Because your not hampered by the cord while using it, vacuuming is less restricted and goes much faster. Whether it's a small spill or doing an entire room, it works great. Had it for more than 2 years of daily use and it still goes and goes.

    Picks up dirt I did not even know was there. Has two suction strengths which works well to switch between carpet and hardwood floors. Floor attachment has blades to cut up any hair to prevent it getting clogged in the vacuum. Lightweight and easy to use!! Can charge it anywhere!

    Honestly probably one of the best vacuums I’ve purchased in a long time. I have a golden and the hair is crazy but this Dyson handles it with no problem. And I also love the lines it makes on the carpet. Absolutely love my Dyson. Only down side is the battery life I wish it would live a little longer than it does.

    We had the original Dyson vacuum and it finally gave out. Purchased this one since it’s not as bulky. Little did we know how great it was. We have 2 dogs and it gets the hair up. Recently I dropped a mason jar on our ceramic tile and every bit of glass was sucked up! Love this vacuum and highly recommend it!

    I wanted to wait until I had a lot of experience with this before reviewing. Overall, I like it and don't regret the purchase. Cordless stick vacs by nature are convenient. Emptying the canister is pretty easy but we do have to stick our hands in there a bit to get long, tangled hair out. I read a lot of negative comments on the battery only lasting for 15 mins, but ours lasts a long time, to the point where we charge it once a month maybe. That said, we use it for spot cleaning and for full floor coverage, we use a traditional stand-up floor vac. One thing that surprised me was the weight. I'm a reasonably fit guy but not huge (135 lbs) and holding the vac with one harm, horizontally actually causes some forearm fatique quicker than I expected. Sometimes I'll have to switch arms. One small annoyance is that when I'm finding a grip to dock the vac in it's wall holster, I will often accidentally hit the on button, which is a little annoying. However, the most annoying part of the vac by far is the angle or placement of the fan. I can't tell you how often I've cursed after having the fan blow in my face. It doesn't seem like it would but it does, especially when using the short stick attachment. If you're just using it with the long arm attachment to clean the ground, then it won't be an issue. Overall for the money, I will probably try a budget friendly cordless stick vac next just to see if a cheaper one will get the job done about as well.

    This vacuum works great on both carpets and hardwood floors. Battery is fine and holds a charge well, emptying is easy. This Dyson V-8 replaces my old V-7 which still works but needs a new battery and some other TLC..

    Lightweight and does the job. Battery only lasts 10-15 minutes on full power, but you probably won’t need to use full power. The trash container is also a bit small.

    What can I say. This machine works great. Being on sale makes it a lot better. Having Best Buy Rewards makes it fantastic.I owned a Dyson V7 Animal Cord Free Stick Vacuum and after almost two years, the machine wouldn't start and was considered broken. I sent it back to a different vender and now I own a V^*. The vacuum is more powerful and it works great. I highly recommend this stick. Hopefully, it will last more than 2 years. I did purchase a warranty for the machine which covers the battery.

    Ease of use right out of the box. Excellent on both rugs and hardwood floors. Even after you have dusted a hardwood floor the V8 picks up even more dust. Lays flat to get under tables, dressers, and beds.
