When we first got the Dyson® V8 Absolute, we were impressed with its quality and effectiveness. It had all the features a good “stick” vacuum should have - good suction, cordless but with reasonable run time, useful accessories, maneuverability, and lightweight to make it easy to transport throughout the home and up and down stairs!
We now have 4 years of heavy use history and are happy to report that we have been very happy with our purchase. We have become quite adept at cleaning out the powerheads from time to time to assure they continue to do their job well. If the time comes to replace the rollers or other parts in the powerheads, it will be easy to do.
We’ve also learned that you need to keep the filters clean. They remove A LOT OF DUST, so they have to be rinsed out and dried about once a month to assure the vacuum will work as it should. In fact, if you let too much dust collect in the filters, the vacuum will “pulse” letting you know that you have a clog somewhere or the filters need to be cleaned.
Fortunately, cleaning the filters is quite easy. Both need to be cleaned (the cyclone cone filter and the exhaust unit). We overlooked the cyclone filter because it looked clean to us, but the unit kept pulsing. When we put the cyclone filter in a bucket of soapy water, the water turned dark brown right away. So, don’t overlook this hardworking component when you service the unit.
We are also pleased to report that our concerns about the battery were unfounded. The battery is still going strong, charges quickly, and appears to still be taking a full charge. We thought we’d need a spare battery, but that isn’t the case.
Bottom Line? We remain enthusiastic about the Dyson® V8 Absolute and highly recommend it for general cleaning tasks throughout your home! While we don’t have any direct experience with any of the other models that have come out since we bought our V8, we suspect they will be as dependable and durable as the model we have.
JUST DO IT YOURSELF.

We bought one about a month ago and so far we don’t have any issues…Thanks for your post!
❤️🙏thank you! Just bought this vacuum, glad it’s worth every cent ✨
Thanks so much Jay you explained the Dyson v8 model so well! :)
Glad it was helpful!
Very informative. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks very much Jay for taking the time to make and upload this video. I found it very helpful as I'm researching the V8 now, before deciding to buy it. Cheers! Cathy in Ireland☺
Very welcome!
I have a very old v8 pet model. I love it and still doing great. I had the same issue. I cleaned the filter. Did not help. But I did not soak in soapy water. I took in to a sweeper shop. They charged a lot to do a full cleaning. Now I know what to so. I was only rinsing the filter. Thank you so much for this video.
How much did they charge?
We also have one and so far it is doing fine 👍👍.
Good to hear!
Thank you for a very helpful and informative review. The V8 is on sale at Dyson and I just wanted to make sure I'm making the right decision.
Glad it was helpful!
Bought one about 4 yrs ago. Gone through two batteries. Your luckier than me. You said Motörhead lol. Lemmy lives forever
Danny, sorry to hear of your negative experience with this product. And, thanks for sharing with your fellow viewers so they know there can be problems. Best, DFJ
Mine was 5 years old and I went through 5 batteries!!
Just picked up a refurbished one for 150 off ebay. Looking forward to using it
Wahooooo!
had mine for maybe 6 years i guess, battery just now is starting to go down,i use a little brush on a wire , like a bottle brush to unstick the inside which works great, youre right though they should have color coded the heads instead of looking through to see the brush, i wash the middle filter the one that gave you the problem, got to keep that clean
good idea labeling the different heads. To someone in a hurry they look like the same thing
I bought the v8 and it started doing that pulsating thing after just one use. I returned it.
You can buy so many aftermarket batteries for the V8 now. They're easy to install, all you need is a screwdriver.
Thank you!
hello! is it normal for the dyson v8 to blow exessive cool air from the filter....cus my vacuum is brand new still havent used it...had another one before and it didnt blow that much air and it did clean so good....should i take it back is it bad ugh I dont know😂
