Q: What is the required height for reaching under furniture?
submitted by Pet owner - 3 months ago
A: Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. In regard to fitting under furniture, the clearance needed would be 2 3/4", The V8 does include smaller attachments you can connect to either wand or bin to reach areas such as under furniture. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

Q: Do you have to hold the trigger while using the Dyson V8 400473-01 like you do with the V8 origin?
submitted by Arlene - 4 months ago
A: Hello Arlene, this is Kelly with Dyson. The only cord-free models in our current line up where you would NOT need to hold down a trigger, would be the Omni-glide or any of the V12 models. Every other cord-free will have a trigger that does need to be held down in order to power the machine. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

submitted by Shirt - 4 months ago

Q: is this the v8 that is for Animal hair etc? I see a couple v8s but none here specifically say v8 Animal. please help!
submitted by LisaDoglover - 7 months ago
A: Hi Lisa, this is Kelly with Dyson. There is one tool that gives any cord-free machine the "Animal" designation; that tool is the mini motorized tool. The floor tool will perform the same on all V8 models, and provides sufficient suction and power for homes with pets. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

Hype

BoBoC - 6 days ago

Has to be one of the more overhyped products/brands, as much as I want to like it ( at least in this category). Constantly clogging, even with filter cleaned. Designed in such a way that you have to reach your fingers up into the area where the dirt is clogging against the container, and unclog it manually. Who wants to reach their hands up inside a vacuum bag? Not me. The bottom door is regularly falling open when it had appeared to be clicked shut, and then you're vacuuming with the dirt flying out the bottom. Sometimes it leaves dirt treads on one side where you're vacuuming. Not the filter area leaks of mildew, which I can't seem to fix. Getting a new filter, but the whole area seems tainted. High power charge is extremely short lived, and almost always clogs, or pulses on low battery mode for every single use. Feels a bit like 'my first vacuum', a gift for a college kid who wants their cleaning eq to look cool. I'm guessing the more high powered models are significantly better, but the claims on suction....def don't feel legit to me.

Hello, Thank you for your review. This is Miella from Dyson. We're sorry to hear of your less-than-stellar experience with your Dyson V8 cordless machine. The bin does feature a max fill line, and going passed this line often can cause a build-up on the cyclone mesh and cause debris to get stuck in the area. We always recommend emptying the bin when you reach the max fill line. Depending on your cleaning tasks, you may have to do this more than once during your tasks. The machine features two modes: max mode and standard extended run high suction mode. Max mode is designed to be a temporary boost of power for particularly stubborn messes. The extended run high suction mode is ideal for the majority of cleaning tasks. We'd value the opportunity to learn more about your experience with your Dyson as we'd like to help ensure you are having a 5-star experience. Please feel free to reach out to us at askdysonUS@dyson.com, and we will be in touch. Best Wishes, Miella Dyson Customer Support

I love the Dyson. It works great on both the carpet and wood floor. Super easy to charge and very light. Would def give a 5 star review if the part was not missing. The only bummer is the long suction tool was not in the box.
Works well… rubs base of thumb raw… poor design.

The unit seems to work well. Battery life is 40 minutes and it finds all kinds dirt. We do not like the grip because it rubs a blister on knuckle of your thumbs. We will be returning the unit to purchase something else.

Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. Thanks for taking the time to share a review here. We're happy to know that thus far, you've been pleased with how your V8 performs, and how well it picks up debris all over your home. 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 you still have any questions or concerns that we can help to address, feel free to get in touch with us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support
Love it!

I actually used the V8 model at a home I clean. And it is so easy and light weight to use. It also has a very strong suction. I decided I wanted on for my house. I have mainly wood floors but I also use it on a few small rugs I have, but at the house I clean i use it on the majority of the house that is carpeted. And wood floor kitchen.

I am just getting to know my new machine. I wish the battery lasted longer (only lasts about 20 minutes) and the one off switch was a switch not a trigger.
1 reply from Dyson Customer Support team - 11 days ago
Hello, this is Kelly with Dyson. Your Dyson V8™ cordless offers two powerful suction modes - regular and MAX. MAX provides a boost of suction for larger debris or more stubborn messes. This mode should not be utilized for your everyday cleaning, as it will only give you about 7 minutes of run time. Regular suction is generally suitable for every household, and gives up to 40 minutes of run time (30 when using a motorized tool). This model, and the majority of our other cord-free machines, does have a light-touch trigger, which does need to be held down in order to engage the machine's motor. We do greatly appreciate this feedback! If you still have any questions or concerns that we can help to address, feel free to get in touch with us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The handle is not comfortable and you have to hold the "on" button down the whole time. I've got big nasty blisters between my index finger and thumb. I would not buy this again or recommend this model. Does not glide nicely on carpet either. It does have great suction though. This is my 4th Dyson vacuum. The 1st 2 were great, but last 2 not so much. I will not buy Dyson in the future.

I had been saving up to buy this for 2 years now. As a resident in training, this is still a big budget purchase for me. It is light years ahead compared to my previous very affordable vacuum that was just 3 years old. My biggest peeve was that it would spit out the hair in a tangled knot. No more hairy carpets! I will say though, I didn't realize what a pain it would be to hold down the button the entire time that I vacuum. Fortunately, I have a small apartment but that is a big drawback. If this meant only for small spaces and short bursts of use, I am not sure it is worth the price tag. In hindsight, knowing what I know now, would not have picked this model for my needs.

Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. Thank you for sharing your experience thus far with your new Dyson V8. We're thrilled to know that you decided to invest in a Dyson product. We can confirm that our V8 models do have a trigger which needs to be held down, to power the machine. This light-touch trigger helps to conserve battery life, ensuring that power is only being used with the trigger engaged. This also helps to save battery life, when you're needing to move around obstacles such as furniture, or even when moving from room to room. We do appreciate that feedback! With regard to overall run time, you will get up to 40 minutes of run time with our V8 machines, or 30 minutes when using one of the motorized tools, in the extended run time mode. Most owners find that the suction in this mode is suitable for everyday cleaning. For those tougher messes or even larger debris, you can switch over to MAX suction for a short boost of power. If you still have any questions or concerns that we can help to address, feel free to get in touch with us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

Jessica - 21 days ago
The quality/durability of these have drastically declined. It’s broken in multiple places (& I don’t overuse or treat poorly) and now leaves deep scratches on my hardwood flooring when I do use it. It was well within my warranty and upon contacting Dyson MULTIPLE times to try to get the machine repaired/replaced, they ignored every one of my attempts. I finally received an email back 5 months after I began my attempts stating they would do nothing to help me because now, my warranty has expired since they took so long to reach back out to me. It began deteriorating within 6 months of purchase. This one replaced a prior, similar Dyson I used for over 10 years. I expected more from this company but the machine and customer service of the company has been TERRIBLE. Spend your money on another product.

Hello Jessica, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you're having such a disappointing experience with your V8, and that reaching out for support was equally as frustrating. That's certainly not the level of iconic service we're known for. We'd like to learn more, and see what options we have to make things right for you.

At 73 It has really gotten hard to push a regular vacuum. My cleaning girl suggested that I get a stick vacuum and I thought about it finally when I could not use my other vac I purchased the Dyson V8 and it has been a blessing for me. I feel like I can get some cleaning done on my own.

Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. It's very unusual to hear that you're not finding your V8 cord-free to be as powerful as your older model V6. The V8 offers more powerful suction power and longer run time than your V6 did. In design, the units are nearly identical, in terms of how the tools and wand attach, filters location, etc. We'd be happy to learn more about your experience. Feel free to get in touch with us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support
Can't keep up with our household

I was really excited when I bought this vacuum. I had used one at my previous job and loved it. Apparently, my house produces a lot more dirt than my old job site! Between 3 short haired dogs and 2 people.. this vacuum can't keep up. I had to buy extra filters for it just to vacuum 1 large area rug and 2 small ones. I can't even finish the large area rug before it begins to pulse. Really bummed out. I try to vacuum every day, but when I had to wash the one filter it came with every day... It made it impossible. I go through 2 filters JUST to do the area rugs. Forget trying to vacuum the rest of the house.

Hello Brianna, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're so happy to learn that you were super excited to get your new Dyson V8! We love the light weight design, and how convenient it is to move about from room to room, with little effort. It's really unusual to hear that your filter would cause the type of issue you're having, on such a regular basis. While the filters on our V8 models do require washing once per month, they should not get so clogged that you need to replace them as frequently as you are. More than likely, there is a blockage some place else in your machine, be it the floor tool, wand, cyclone, etc. We would be really happy to go over your machine with you more in-depth, and help to identify and diagnose the issue, so you're able to clean your whole home without stopping to troubleshoot. Please get in touch with us at askdysonUS@dyson.com. It will be our pleasure to assist you with this. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support
