Is the Dyson V8 Plus good for pet hair?

Yes. The Motorbar cleaner head and the Hair screw tool both use anti-tangle conical brushes that strip long hair and pet hair off as you clean. It is one of the main reasons people pick this model.

How long does the battery last?

Dyson rates it at up to 40 minutes in Powerful mode with a non-motorized tool, and about 5 minutes in Max mode. Expect less on carpet or with powered heads.

Can it clean carpets as well as hard floors?

Yes. The Motorbar head is designed for all floor types, and the brush bar can be left running on carpet. On thick pile, use Max mode for deeper pickup.

What comes in the box?

The vacuum, Motorbar cleaner head, Hair screw tool, crevice tool, mini soft dusting brush, wall dock and charger. It ships partially charged, so charge it fully before the first use.

How does it compare with newer Dyson cordless models?

Newer models such as the V12 and V15 offer longer run time, more suction and, on some, a laser head and LCD screen. The V8 Plus keeps the anti-tangle tools and filtration at a lighter weight.

Is it good for stairs and cars?

Yes. It converts to a handheld in one click, and the crevice tool and Hair screw tool reach stairs, car seats and upholstery. The light body helps on stairs.
