We called Dyson ’s cordlessDC59 Motorheadthe first genuine replacing for a full - sized void , even with a few annoying design queerness and special battery life sentence . It has taken the party almost two years to plan a follow - up , but the new Dyson V8 appears to fasten most of the complaint we had with the original .

The rechargeable bombardment on the original Dyson DC59 had only about 20 hour of run sentence . So you were either extremely motivated to clean as much as you possibly could in that limited fourth dimension figure , or move onto other job while you waited for it to charge back up . But thanks to an improved Ni - cobalt - aluminum battery , the new V8 can run for up to 40 mo at a sentence , without its suction pass off as the bombardment become flat .

Like with the DC59 , the newfangled V8 also has an optional ‘ Max ’ way that boosts suction for dealing with resilient dirt like animate being hair nonplus to upholstery . On the snotty-nosed side , it also reduces the void ’s overall run clock time , but the addition of a electric battery runtime indicant on the V8 provides an approximation of how much cleanup time you ’ve got left .

Another big frustration we had with the old DC59 was emptying its collection bin , which would often leave dust and rubble stuck on the inside . clean it was no picnic , so with the new V8 Dyson has contain a “ hygienical dirt ejector . ” It ’s essentially is a rubber shoe collar that slides down the middle of the collection bin to scrape off dust and dirt stuck to its interior , without your fingers ever get anywhere near it .

Other improvements to the new V8 admit a more powerful motor but redesign airflow that it carry about half as gimcrack as its predecessor , a dirt collection bin that ’s 30 percent larger to reduce the number of times you want to empty it , and a dust - busting soft roller cleanerdesigned for hard floor . The kit also come with the powered cleaner headway that the DC59 included .

In North America , the Dyson V8 cord - free will be available in Canada starting today on Dyson ’s website for $ 700 and will hit stores in about a month . Availability in the United States is expect closer to September with a damage tag of $ 600 or else . Will it be worth the agiotage pricing ? We ’ll have a review of the new hardware in the occur week .
