Very good

published

This is the best vacuum I have ever had. We got it before we got our puppy so we didn't get that one for the animal fur but it still works great. It's amazing to see how much dust and hair gets collected only after couple minutes of vacuuming. Battery doesn't last for too long. We have 1 BR apartment and the battery is just enough for vacuuming out whole place (half of our place/tiles on low and half of it on max/carpet) but if you have more than 1BR you might need to recharge more often which can be annoying.

Purchased in February 2021 at Harvey Norman for $599.00.

Compact, convenient and lightweight

published

Im using it for about a month now. I am very satisfied with this vacuum cleaner. It's compact, lightweight and does a good job for our carpet. I also use it for vinyl and so far i got no issues with it. The battery life is quite enough for 3 carpeted rooms. Its convenient for me too since having 2 babies in the house, its difficult to move around using a big vacuum.

Portable, Compact and Useful, Although Poor Battery

published

Mainly use this vacuum on ceramic flooring and carpet, which it does to great effect. Portable and compact so easy to use and store. Although battery life is frankly quite poor, maybe get around 15 minutes of use before having to charge.

9 minute battery life

published

I use it on hard floors n tiles and carpet, it works well.
Unfortunately the battery lasts only 9 minutes and the unit can get heavy in your hand.
Personally, I dont think its worth the money, if it lasted longer than 9 minutes, then it would be ok.

Loving this

Couldn't go back to a corded vac, this makes it to easy to clean small areas in a very quick amount of time. Battery doesn't last a very long time but I knew that when buying. I love how easy it is to use for the car.

Complete waste of money

published

Bought this to compliment our full size Dyson for in between cleans, but it is hopeless. I can only clean one room before the battery overheats and the unit shuts down. The LG seems to be better value as it comes with twin batteries.
It is a shame, because build quality is good and it is easy to charge and empty and light to carry around.
This is a nope from me, unable to recommend.

Its a good little Vacuum but the battery sucks!

published

Great stick vacuum and so easy to use!
Love it on carpet and timber floors!
But the battery sucks and does not last very long at all, the high max setting only lasts 6 mins which is a joke!!!
Lucky I got this on sale and didn't pay full price.

Not worth its price

I prefer the dyson v6.. v7 head gets stuck. Motor goes on and off after 5 minutes of vacuuming. Hate the product. Very disappointed in dyson... I always used to speak highly of dyson...but not anymore!

My best friend. Used at least once a day.

published

This is my third cordless dyson and they just keep getting better.
I use this everyday in my 38sq home to pick up all the crumbs and dust and works a treat on both floorboards and carpet. It is slightly loud but that only bothers my kids and husband and not myself :)
I'm sure the newer models would be even better but I can't imagine it being worth the price difference considering I purchased this for only $350 at The Good Guys. Highly recommend.

V7 Cord-Free

Hello

I just wanted to check that like the V7 Animal, the V7 Cord-Free can be left in the charging station all the time without damaging the battery?

Thanks!

Dyson Team ..Dyson

All Dyson V7 machines have smart electronics within the machine, battery and charger to ensure they won't overcharge.

It is recommended you leave the machine on charge when not in use, even if you haven't fully used the battery. This will ensure it is always ready for your next cleaning session. The electronics in the machine will ensure the battery charges to 100%, but not over.

We hope this helps, however if you have any further queries, please feel free to reach out to our Dyson Experts via [email protected].

V7 Cord-Free

Hi
What is the length of the charging cord (what maximum distance between wall mount and power point)?
Cheers
Paul

Dyson
Dyson Team ..Dyson

The charger cord for the V7 is approximately 1.8 metres long. That being said, to secure the charger to the wall mount, approximately 45 centimetres of the charger cord is woven through the back of the wall mount.

We hope this helps, however if we can assist further, our Dyson Experts are available via [email protected] and happy to help.

Why do the batteries keep dying ?

Because of the high power, it uses the battery quite quick .

No, its because they have a major problem with the batteries that so far to date will not do a product recall on them.

Dyson Team ..Dyson

While the batteries of Dyson machines are considered consumable items, we wouldn't expect them to require regular replacement.
