Dyson V7 Animal Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner, Purple, Medium

Product Information

The V7 Animal also comes with Dyson’s latest Soft Dusting Brush tool. This is an even better shape for dusting shelves and high-up surfaces than the main 2-in-1 tool, and features very soft bristles for delicate cleaning. My keyboard has never looked so crumb-free. I finally traded up from V7 (which didn’t need replacing and still going strong so I gave to my mother) as I had different needs as I now have disabilities. The lightness of it is great . The bin I find so much easier to empty as the bin no longer comes off with the open hatch :-)." All our cordless vacuums use at least five layers of advanced, whole-machine filtration to capture 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.¹

For comparison, we measured the V8 at 75dB on Max power. As decibels are measured on a logarithmic scale, that 10dB difference is huge.On paper, at least, the new Dyson V7 cordless cleaners sit between the original V6 and the flagship V8 models. The V7 range draws much of its design from the newer V8 but is lighter, quieter and runs for longer in normal power mode. The key change is its smaller, lighter battery, and a jiggling of the suction power versus run-time ratio. The battery did indeed charge from flat in around 3.5 hours with an LED indicator that’s orange when fully expended, blue while charging, and goes out when the unit is fully charged. Our most powerful, lightweight cordless vacuum with De-tangling technology and single-button power control. Dyson vacuums are engineered to capture and contain household dirt and pet hair – even the microscopic pet dander you can't see. All the tools can be clipped directly onto the main handheld unit, or the funky purple extension tube. The clips are a work of plastic genius and feel easier to operate yet more secure than pretty much any other manufacturer’s tool-clip mechanism on the market. In addition, the clips are on the tools, rather than the tube or body, which makes removing and replacing tools with one hand easy.

Heading around the house with the Direct Drive floorhead attached, we cleaned for a near textbook 30mins 30secs on average from a single charge on normal power. Several test sessions on various floor surfaces resulted in very little variation – from hard floors (31 minutes) to carpet pile so deep that you could loose a tribe of pigmies in it (29.5 minutes).Next-day scheduled delivery may not be available during peak times. Instead, you can choose the next available slot. We apologise for any inconvenience. The difference between the models becomes even more confusing when comparing their suction power, where the V7 is the weakest of the lot. It has 21 Airwatts on powerful mode and 100 Airwatts in max mode. By comparison, the V8 has 22 and 115, while the V6 has 28 and 100, respectively.

All Dyson cordless vacuums have powerful, lightweight digital motors which generate powerful suction across all floor types. Suction is measured in Air Watts with the machine at maximum power mode."

Dyson V7 Animal review: Price and competition Dyson’s V-series cleaners get a middle sibling in the form of the V7, tested here in its pet-hair-busting Animal guise. A whole lot quieter than the V6 and slightly more svelte than the V8, it has most of the flagship’s main features.

I can’t believe how easy vacuuming is now. I can clean the whole flat without using any energy. The suction is very powerful even on the lesser strength and I have a cat who sheds hairs everywhere. Today I’m happily looking forward to cleaning the filters. I tell all my friends, it’s fabulous. We don't stop caring about our machines once they're yours. We offer a guarantee on parts and labour. Motorbar™ cleaner head technology uses polycarbonate hair removal vanes to automatically clear the brush bar as you clean. Sorry, unfortunately this machine was never sold in this country and as such we are unable to provide online support. However, we can still help you, please call our Helpline on 0800-298-0298 or chat with us now.

Tested and engineered for homes with pets, the Dyson Outsize creates powerful suction that drives deep to remove dirt and pet hair from carpets and rugs. Having used the Direct Drive floorhead and the Mini Motorised Tool on previous Animal iterations of Dyson’s handhelds, we knew furball tumbleweed and pet hairs ground into the carpet didn’t stand a chance. That’s particularly important if you’re using the more powerful of the V7’s two modes. Although the standard mode will last you 30 minutes, the V7 will last a mere six minutes if allowed to run continuously in “Max”.

There really isn’t any other cordless cleaner on the market that gets even close to the Dyson V7 Animal’s cleaning power, convenience and versatility on carpeted steps. Well, okay, other than the V6 and V8.
