Dyson V11 Torque Drive Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, Blue

I love the power and the versatility of using the V 11. I wish it would’ve come with a buffing head as well. That had cost $98. But, I will eventually end up buying one.

We owned an V8 Absolute for over 2 years. We decided to upgrade to V11 Animal when we wanted another vacuum cleaner for upstairs. V11 has stronger suction power (185 AW vs 115 AW) and longer battery life. We can vacuum the whole house which is almost 2400 sq ft in one cleaning on auto mode. Although we dont have pets, it does a great job at picking up my wifes long hair. Most importantly, V11 comes with only one cleaner head which will automatically adjust the suction power to different floor types, so you wont need to change the heads between carpets and hardwood floors. Its so much more convenient! The downside is that its bigger and heavier than V8 (6.68 lbs vs 5.8 lbs.) It will be a bit of a challenge for a average size woman to hold with one hand. Because of its in-line design of a long dust bin canister, the V11 with the cleaner head attached will lean forward when placed on the floor. I find it kind of awkward. Last thing I want to mention is that emptying the dust bin is a little messy for the V11 due to the lack of an enclosed lid. You can just close the lid on V8 after emptying it, there wont be dust falling out. But for V11, the whole lid with the opening will get all dusty afterwards. I always wipe it off with a tissue. Overall Im happy with this vacuum cleaner!

I am loving everything about the V11 except emptying the canister. To empty you must remove any attachments before emptying the debris. The battery life was excellent, I vacuumed most of my house, cleaned the couches and rugs without any issues on power or suction. I replaced my V8 with the V11 and overall am happy with the purchases, would have given it 5 stars but removing attachments to empty canister is a hassle.

This is the best vacuum cleaner I have ever owned, and I have had an Electrolux and Shark. It is so lightweight that I can just walk with it from room to room; and being cordless, I dont have to worry with plugging it in and dragging the cord around. I am very, VERY pleased with this purchase! Came fairly quickly, too.

Ive had this vacuum for a day and Im already hooked. Its super easy to vacuum any surface from stairs to the cat tree. No messing with cords and its lighter than a plug-in vacuum. I love all the attachments and that theres a clip to attach two attachments to the broom so I dont have to go to the base station to get them. I finally pulled the trigger on a nice vacuum because the Bissell Id had the last few years kept shooting dirt and cat litter back at my feet instead of picking it up. This one sucks just about everything up! I like the different power modes. The base station is easy to install and use. My one complaint about it is that not all the attachments fit on it. I would love to have all the attachments in one place but theres only room for two. On top of that, the other two wouldnt fit if I tried - theres no clearance with the wall. It would be awesome to have a base station that could fit all the attachments. The only other complaint I have, and the main reason for the 4 star rating, is that the handle creates a pressure point between my thumb and forefinger when Im vacuuming and its uncomfortable. Basically most of the weight rests on that point on my hand. Considering everything else, this vacuum is still excellent and the pros absolutely outweigh the cons. Id buy it again!

This vacuum is truly amazing. The cordless feature is so dreamy. It sucks up cat hair and dog hair and dirt so efficiently. The battery is sufficient to clean a 1200 square-foot space without a recharge. The features are easy to use and it easily hangs on the wall tucked night nicely away with the wall mount that comes with a vacuum cleaner. I have two of these and they make my life so much easier. The vacuum comes with a hand held attachment that allows you to quickly and efficiently, vacuum cat and dog hair, riddled, furniture, and vehicle upholstery.

I’m 77, so I’ve had a lot of vacuums in my life. This is far and above the best. No cord to lift over. Suction is awesome for all the pet hair. Battery life is great. Dyson has thought this one out in detail.

In the case of my short little review here of the(my) Dyson v11-outsize{And also whomever actually shipped the package to me}, I will preface with: You get what you pay for. I couldnt be any happier with any part of the transaction or the v11-outsize itself and its accouterments. It arrived in a box that had shipping airpillows for stabilization and another box inside. That box was a protective sheath for the Dyson box. Inside the Dyson box there was another, at least, 20$ worth of cardboard to surround and protect every single individual attachment, both individual batteries, and the main unit. It took me 30 minutes of gleefully enjoying the entire unboxing experience to get everything out of the boxes. Not to mention there was a few more minutes of breaking unneeded cardboard down for recycling. Once I turned the unit on with the 20% charge that was pre installed on the batteries, I was 1000000% happy with my unit and I did a quick 2min vacuum of my apartment...which...I thought was already very clean..and I had a disgusting amount of very very very fine dust..nearly filling..yes...nearly filling..this extra large container. So...lets say that I am blown away (pardon the pun) by the actual performance of this little thing... And Im actually afraid of what a good 15min deep vacuum session is gonna yield in my apartment now. Because I had vacuumed with an old vacuum (that worked just fine mind you) not 3 days ago and Ive been gon for half that time. So... Let me end with. Im thrilled about everything. 1: My new toy was worth every penny simply because it sounds like a mini jet engine(very tolerable, even for a disabled vet with a very complicated head injury that has increased his sensitivity to sounds so much that his quiet cell phone alert makes him jump out of his skin) and I love just clicking it on for the spool up whistle. 2: the way the package was sent to me and the dyson packaging itself were marks of top quality. Like I said there was at least 20$ of cardboard there...I think it was closer to about 40-60$. 3: the unit can nearly almost pick up my combat boots with the suction power of this thing when I have it on turbo mode. 100/100 <3

I love vacuuming!! It has incredible suction for wood floors, grabs dirt on the edges of the head of the vac, automatically adjusts for the area rug and I am totally amazed at the amount of dirt and dust comes out of that rug. I love watching the dust bin fill up! I must lead a very boring life to get so excited about a vacuum cleaner.

I have only had the vacuum a few days and I absolutely love it. It has strong suction and different ranges of suction so if I want a suction boost I can get it, but the regular suction is strong. I love that it gets around my chair legs because of its maneuverability. Amazing maneuverability. You can stand in one place and get around all the chair legs without having to move around to each side like you would with a regular vacuum cleaner. It gets under my kitchen cupboards where my old vacuum didnt fit. With my regular vacuum I had to stop and install a flexible hose and keep pulling the vacuum around to use the short hose that was attached which is awkward. I can go from carpet to floors and it automatically adjusts. The tools are fantastic! Any changing of tools is quick and easy, much easier and quicker than a regular vacuum and there are many more tools. I feel like I am getting all my vacuuming done faster from living room to kitchen to stairs and the special cleaning such as under the kitchen cupboards, under dining room chairs, tables, stairs, blinds, shelves, upholstered furniture, door tracks, around the dryer, etc. I would have skipped alot of that with my old vacuum because it was too time consuming and inconvenient. The handheld option makes alot of those jobs so much easier than trying to pull a vacuum around so you can use the flexible hose. There are many tools that come with the vacuum that are so useful. The vacuum is lightweight so it is great for stairs and much quieter than my old vacuum. I have never run out of power before I have finished vacuuming. It is hot here because it is summer and the motor puts off a light breeze and cools me off while I am vacuuming. I like the LCD screen which shows how much power I have used and how much I have left. It also lets you know how much power you have for the level of suction you choose. If you use the Power boost for all your vacuuming you would run out of power a little earlier than if you use the regular or eco suction but I have never had to. It charges within a few hours so it is always ready to use. I am so happy I made this purchase! It is a great vacuum. It is expensive. That is the only slight negative I can think of.
