Man Dyson makes too many models. Do they make a model and then when a new version comes out they just make the new one more expensive and keep the old one around? I can't tell if should step up to the V10 or not.
Agreed. I used to recommend Dyson to everyone, but now I can't do that because I don't know the difference among all the models.
It's the soft roller that really makes the difference for hard surfaces…it's really the main key piece. I did extensive research in the past up until they released the V10.

The V8 battery life is significantly less then the V10 along with the price tag. Otherwise their are small nuanced differences. The absolute versions include both the brush roller head and soft roller. The attachments in these higher tier versions (absolute vs their basic) are really overkill.

For battery life think about how long your actually vaccum on time will be….it ends up not being a lot. Ex I bought 2 dyson refurbished (eBay) v6 absolutes for $280 + tax 4 years ago. I have 2200sqft with 50/50 carpet/hard wood… between the both of them it's enough to do the whole place. One is dying very soon.

If I recall correctly, after the V6 most of the next versions had The major issues worked out (easier to empty bin, HEPA filter etc).

Is this better than LG A916 I bought from Costco for $349? I am going to use vacuum on hardwood and tile only.

To be fair, Dyson isn't the only ones who do that. It's nearly every vaccum maker. At least Dyson have numbering that make sense.

I like Shark but they do not make it easy to differentiate between models and their tiers. It doesn't help that there are model variations with different retailers.

There are generally generations of motor designs and then the options like "fluffy", "animal", and "allergy" are the options and attachments they come with. Fluffy is a diff head than the bristle brushed motorhead. Can find a fluffy head separate and put it on a diff vac, at least on the sticks. I'm unsure if the heads are interchangeable on the upright balls.

Is this better with the fluffy head for Vinyl flooring or would the v11 torque head be better?

If you need 60 mins of 🔋 capacity vs the 40 mins, they also have the V10 on sale for $80 more https://www.walmart.com/ip/297330198

Anyone successfully added "extended" aftermarket battery to V8? I bought one with great skepticism on ebay for my ancient handheld V6 and it seems to be extended indeed.
