I do not think the V8 is worth even the discounted price. Had one and sold it. Got a Samsung Jet 90 and it works waaay better. Much longer battery life and so much better suction. Neither compare in cleaning to my new Sebo Felix Premium but since you're looking for a cordless,I'd look elsewhere. Just my opinion. Answer from burrzoo on reddit.com

Dyson V8 was worth every penny
I agree with another comment I read on this subreddit once. “The best vacuum is the one you will enjoy using, suits your needs and meets your satisfactions”. Objectively, there are always better or worse items within their own ranks. Why use a Molotov cocktail when I could use a nuclear warhead? I’ve had Miele, Kirby, and have an older Dyson upright. They’re all great, for their specific use cases. I use my V8 to clean up behind my cat and do quick touch up’s behind the roborock. High dusting, blinds dusting, and vacuuming out the lint trap to my dryer. More on reddit.com

The Dyson V8 Absolute Vacuum Really "Sucks"...Dirt Off of the Floor - Review - HighTechDad™
Dyson V8 Absolute Vacuum
Review of the Dyson V8 Absolute, a portable, powerful, lightweight, cordless vacuum that has massive "sucking" power to clean hard floor & carpets. Dyson continues to innovate making household chores like vacuuming much more pleasurable and effective. The Dyson V8 Absolute brings a whole new level of powerful, cordless, lightweight vacuuming as a weapon against dirt and dust in the home. The Dyson V8 Absolute is literally a "snap" to set up, with all of the attachments snapping into place.

I couldn’t resist and picked her up a toy one so she can play with it when I vacuum. Sadly the one I have for her is sold out, but this one is available still.

r/VacuumCleaners on Reddit: Dyson V8 was worth every penny
December 24, 2024 -

After just using my Dyson stick V8 for the zillionth time, I just have to rave. I'm not sure when I bought it and I'm not sure what I paid, but it is by far the best all-around vacuum I've ever had. The light weight, the ability to switch easily between regular and max. suction speeds, and the flexibility of the head and the various attachments make it very versatile. I use it on wood floors, rugs, and wall-to-wall carpet. The only thing I've ever had to replace are filters. The on-line videos about how to clean the various areas of the vacuum that get clogged up with fine dust are incredibly helpful. With that help, I've been able to keep the vacuum working well for years. I've never posted a Yelp review before and I can hardly believe that I'm doing it because I'm in love with a vacuum cleaner, but there it is. Hopefully, the newer models are as good as this one.

Dyson V8 Absolute cordless vacuum cleaner | Review - LittleStuff
March 20, 2018 - When Dyson asked if we’d like to try out the V8 Absolute cordless vacuum cleaner, I admit I was sceptical. Despite the £499.99 price tag, I was totally unconvinced this small and flimsy thing could actually handle what my house would throw at it. But it looked like it would be fun to try – and at least the children would be keener on vacuum chore day, so I said yes (whilst plotting not to be *too* rude in my review).

Review: Dyson V8 Absolute Nails the Cordless Vacuum – GeekDad
January 12, 2018 - As I said, I’ve been a Dyson user for quite a while now. I appreciate the engineering that goes into their products and the resulting performance. I also appreciate the design of their vacuums that makes it easy to disassemble them if necessary—and it is necessary when your kids vacuum up pens, pencil crayons, and other large objects. I’ve also been able to easily replace worn parts like hoses. The V8 Absolute shows every sign of delivering the same sort of long-term experience I’ve seen with our other Dyson vacuums.
