Really great appliance very effective and easy to use. Only I'd like that the trigger could stay stuck if you want it. It means that loses some power but I prefer not hold the trigger in all the time.

packs plenty of punch; does a good job especially on carpet has a great range of attachments to cover all aspects of cleaning

only blip is the docking/charging station cannot hold all the attachments

When mounting the charging station using the wall plugs supplied I found the type of Philips head screws supplied were of the wrong type. The screws supplied had a long thread and then a non-threaded shaft before the screw head.

I have always been a Dyson fan, but this machine is a beast! seriously good suction, excellent battery life, light weight and the improvements for emptying the waste hopper is awesome, thanks Dyson for the best vac i have owned to date.

The V8 is heavier than I expected but is very powerful and ready to use straight from the docking station. The different tools click on and off very easily. It would be good to have somewhere near the docking station to be able to keep the tools. I found emptying the waste container a little tricky.

"Dyson are expensive but if you want the best you have to pay for it. I would never buy anythink else.

Bought this to replace an old heavy Dyson, and it is amazing. Light to move around and removes cat hair much better than the old one. I wish I'd bought it sooner, Unless you live in an enormous house I wouldn't worry about the battery, I find I use it more often for less time - it's so convenient...

I've given this Dyson a 5 star as its an excellent product. There are no leads so I can zoom around furniture at ease to clean. Its neatly attached to the docking station on the wall so it looks good whilst charging. It's a powerful machine.

I bought this over a month ago and can't say enough good things. We have two cats and a dog - including two adults who also shed!!! This vacuum really does get all the dirt/debris, either carpet or floor. Being cordless it's a joy to use; it's light and easy to empty.

This is my second Dyson stick vacuum and it's been improved. The first one lasted for about three years when the battery went out. It was too confusing to try to replace, frankly, so I opted for the V8.
