- Is the Dyson V8 Origin Extra worth it over the V11 or V15?
- If you have a small home or want a light second vacuum, yes. The V11 and V15 give more suction, a bigger bin and longer runtime, but they cost more and weigh more.
- How long does the battery last?
- Up to 40 minutes on low power. On max power it runs roughly 5 to 7 minutes. A full charge takes about 5 hours.
- Does it work on carpet and hard floors?
- Yes. It is rated for carpet, rugs, hardwood and tile. The motorized cleaner head is the main tool for carpet; switch to the soft or combination tool for hard floors.
- Can I buy a spare battery?
- Yes, Dyson sells a compatible V8 battery, and swapping it doubles your cleaning time. The vacuum does not include a second battery.
- What is in the box?
- The V8 Origin Extra comes with the vacuum, a motorized cleaner head, a combination tool, a crevice tool, the wand and a charger. Exact tool sets vary by region, so check the listing.
- Is it good for pet hair?
- Yes on hard floors and low-pile carpet. The small bin fills fast with heavy pet hair, so empty it often.
- Where is the Dyson V8 Origin Extra cheapest?
- At Sam's Club, for $439.98, as of our latest check.
