Dyson V8 Motorhead Cordless Vaccum Cleaner

Product Information

Let’s explore how the V7 and V8 are similar and different. Are these worthy alternatives to the more expensive variants like the V10 Absolute, V11 Torque Drive, and Outsize?

Dyson V8™ Overview

The V8 Absolute has more tools out of the box, with a total of 8 if you include the two nozzles. It has a mini turbo brush and the soft dusting brush, absent in the V7. I did comprehensive tests for the Dyson V7 and V8 on five, seven, nine, eleven, and twelve-inch hair strands.The Dyson V8 Absolute is a lightweight version of the Animal. It weighs only 5.1 pounds without the wand. It has a two-year parts and labor warranty. The Animal Motorhead is made of polypropylene and uses a radial cyclonic action to clean surfaces. It can clean dirt from kids and pets. You’ll feel free to take on more challenging cleaning tasks with this vacuum cleaner. Realize that Dyson cord-free vacuums come with a lifetime filter. So there’s no need to replace it for the lifetime of the vacuum. That isn’t true even if the V7 and V8 don’t have a clip-on battery; replacing the battery is doable using a Philips screwdriver. It did noticeably better with nothing wrapping after the nine-inch test, but the limit is eleven and twelve-inch hair. Tools out of the box

You’re probably wondering: “What’s the difference between a Dyson VS. an animal?” The Dyson V8 motorhead can handle medium and low-pile carpets, but it won’t get the job done quite as well on low-pile carpets. Those photos don’t show the plowing effect of the motorhead’s direct drive. And while the motorhead will clean a lot of coffee grounds, which are fine, the V8 didn’t do so well on medium and low-pile carpets. Dyson v8 motorhead On paper, the Dyson V8 seems to be a better product than the V7. It has more suction, a larger battery, and more tools.

Runs longer: The larger capacity battery allows the V8 to run further. So it’s a better alternative for bigger homes.The Dyson V8 offers several advantages over the V7. First, it runs longer thanks to the larger capacity Li-ion battery. I have the Absolute variant with the Fluffy and Direct Drive head, which provides more versatility than the V7 MotorHead.

Most tools in the Dyson cord-free product line are interchangeable except for the V6 and the Outsize. Run time comparison of Dyson V7 vs. V8 For wall-to-wall carpeting, the MotorHead would be the better choice. In homes with mixed surfaces, the V7 Absolute is an excellent alternative. Dyson V8: More Power, Better Inside Larger Homes Soft roller cleaner head– This is a brush bar with soft woven nylon bristles and anti-static carbon fiber filaments. As the name suggests, this is a tool that has been specially designed to clean the hard surfaces, for example, tile floors, hardwood, linoleum, e.t.c. The Absolute version can clean hard floors and carpet as it has the Fluffy and Direct Drive attachments.

The Dyson V8 Animal is a cordless vacuum cleaner with both hard floors and carpets. Its motor, suction, and dust bin are identical. However, the Animal motorhead does not have the fluffy head of the Absolute. Instead, it has a regular head, which works just as well. The two models are similar except for the price difference and the accessories. The Animal version is a little more powerful than the Absolute, with 40 minutes of run time when charged. The Animal model also has an up top adaptor and a tool bag. The Dyson V8 was once Dyson’s flagship option, chosen as the “best” cordless vacuum in numerous publications. This Dyson cordless was the first to have a hygienic system and was a considerable upgrade over the V6’s trap door design. In contrast, the V7 can only last for 32 minutes with the crevice tool and 27 minutes with the cleaning head.
