Dyson V8 Motorhead Cordless Vaccum Cleaner

Product Information

I prefer the Fluffy attachment because it has better padding; thus, it lessens the risk of scuffing hardwood surfaces significantly. Sand on hardwood comparison of Dyson V7 vs. V8 Crevice tool– This is a tool that comes in handy when cleaning the tight spaces between sofas, between car seats and other hard to reach areas. The Dyson V8 Absolute has two filters – one pre-motor filter in the middle of the cyclones plus a HEPA filter behind the motor.

With non-powered tools, the Dyson V8 runs for 42 minutes in low power, and 7 minutes when in high-power mode. When it comes to the powered cleaner head, the runtime was much shorter, with 26.5 minutes in low power mode and 7 minutes in max power. 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 handling is superb courtesy of the ergonomic and comfortable handle, as well as the equal weight distribution. It has been perfectly balanced using Archimedes’ principle to make it easy for homeowners to clean the high up places, and the floor without much strain. Maintenance

Better on hard floors: The Fluffy attachment of the V8 Absolute is superior to the V7’s MotorHead brush. It’s more efficient and isn’t as prone to scratching the surface. However, the gap widens in the max setting – as much as 8.77% difference at the wand in favor of the V8. Strangely, the V7 has 2% more airflow at the cleaning nozzle. 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 SV10 is more powerful than the V8, but is not as compact. It features two tier radial cyclones that push air through fifteen small conical chutes. The air created by this combination of air produces centrifugal force that helps the motor to clean up smaller particles. Its motor rotates at an impressive 110,000 rpm. The V8 motorhead is available in yellow and iron, and the hand-held model is designed to be sleek and attractive. Dyson v8 absolute Better Ergonomically: Being more slightly compact makes the V7 better when it comes to ergonomics. The steering is more responsive on carpets where the smaller brush has less drag.

The colors mentioned above are highlighted on the wand, cleaning head, and also the main unit. Accessories, Tools and Attachments The V8 will run for as much as 41 minutes with the crevice tool. And up to 33 minutes using the Direct Drive attachment. Between the two, the V7 is the more nimble option. The smaller battery frees up the excess weight and gives it a lighter steering feel, particularly carpets. For the record, there are times you may experience high noise levels, and this is a clear sign that something is amiss. We noticed increased sound levels when the brushroll is jammed, as the vacuum tries to compensate for the inefficiency. Cleaning head However, the V7 had better results with surface cleaning on carpets. It’s one of the most surprising findings from the experiments I did.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 Of course, there are tradeoffs to take into consideration. First is the run time. Since the V7 has a smaller capacity battery, it won’t run as long as the V8. Every single Dyson product has a design aesthetic that’s very appealing, and the same philosophy applies to the V8 as well.

Dyson V8 Origin+ Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner: HEPA Filter Dyson V8 Origin+ Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner: HEPA Filter

The Animal and V7 do not feature a HEPA filter, though the Motorhead is a good option for stair cleaning. Compared to the Animal and Fluffy, the Motorhead is less powerful. But both models have a mini motorized tool for stairs. The Animal has a lightweight design, while the Motorhead is best suited for cleaning rooms and stairs. These two vacuum cleaners are best used with a dust-free environment. Flexi crevice tool– This one flexes to reach the tight corners, and behind appliances where the standard crevice tool can’t reach. From all the V8 vacuums, only the Dyson V8 Animal+ has a different bin capacity. This one is smaller at 0.4 L, but then, the hygienic bin emptying system is standard across all the models. You get a transparent 0.54L dustbin that makes up the bulk of the handheld unit, with 15 small cyclone cones arranged in a two-tier flower shape in front of it. It weighs 3.5lbs/1.6kg with no attachments, and at its heaviest, it weighs 5.6lbs/2.6kg (with the wand and main cleaning head attached). For a household vac, that’s pretty lightweight, but it’s a little on the heavier side when considering comparable handheld vacs for car cleaning.Both vacuums score high marks with ergonomics. I like how the primary floor nozzles of each model are capable of sharp turns and avoiding furniture. The compact design helps immensely in cramped spaces. When it comes to the fragile surfaces, and hard floors, for example, hardwood, go for a Dyson V8 that tags along with the soft roller cleaner head. It has been designed with soft woven nylon, which is tough on the dirt and gentle on the floors. With this cleaning head, you can eliminate the large dirt debris while the anti-static carbon fiber filaments trap the fine dust and pet hair. Only the Dyson V8 Absolute has this attachment, but you can buy it separately if you need it. Filtration The Absolute version can clean hard floors and carpet as it has the Fluffy and Direct Drive attachments.

You’ll notice the Direct Drive having more bulk, which makes it resistant to tangles better than the thinner brush of the V7.
