What the experts say
9 /10
The V7 Absolute was praised by Trusted Reviews for making good improvements on the last model with the bin emptying system a particular step up. The range of accessories is excellent and coupled with the powerful suction makes it good across surfaces and in different positions including under the furniture. Negative points include the price and the fact the battery isn’t replaceable.
9 /10
Real Homes was concerned about the run time of only 30 minutes but still considered the V7 Absolute an excellent handheld vacuum cleaner, with effective results all around the house, lots of accessories and easy bin emptying.
8 /10
TechRadar didn’t consider the V7 Absolute suitable for large homes, but performance was excellent for as long as the battery lasted, but on max this is only 10 minutes. The small bin also needed frequent emptying, but on the plus side it was lightweight and easy to move around and use.

Pros: Ease of use and powerful suction performance.
Cons: Aesthetically, it and all the Dyson vac range could do with a style make-over. They are very functional, but very ugly!

Pros: Had a shark because my friend recommended it but it doesn’t pick up half what this dyson does. This dyson just does what it’s meant to without any fuss. Easy to use. Easy to empty and even the kids have managed to use it.
Cons: Honestly don’t think I’ve found any yet. I was worried that the 30min run time might be an issue but it’s so quick and easy to use we have never run out while using.

Great for Small properties.
Great buy if battery lasted longer than 10 mins on full power. First cordless hoover bought and would recommend having two Batteries.

Excellent cleaner with limited battery
Easy to assemble and to use, very versatile to clean in awkward spaces and has excellent suction. The fold down mechanism is particularly good for cleaning under beds. The short unit is very portable. The only real negative is that the battery only lasts 30 minutes so in reality needs daily charging.

Great Design
We have had the V7 for 3 weeks now, and the best Vacuum I have ever owned. It is lightweight, fairly quite, cleans exceptionally well, right up to the edge of the floor covering. Easy to take off and put on other cleaning heads I completely recommend this cleaner.

Great but dont let know when battery is almost gon
Hoover is great, powerful and easy to use, just annoying thing is that dont let you know when battery is almost gone. Just switch off. Maybe should be some flashing light to let ppl that in 1/2 mins will switch off. Thanks

My vacuum cleaner is lightweight and easy to use
This is my first cordless vacuum cleaner. Why didn’t I get one before? It’s lightweight, so simple to swap the many attachments, great ease of movement and great at picking up things you can’t even see in your carpet! My only issue is I have arthritis and having to keep the button down to make the vacuum work is incredibly painful. I know the reason is to manage energy, but I’d like to see a less painful alternative in the future.

Dyson V7 bRilliant.quick and easy to use
Wish i got 1 sooner Easy to use n light enough for me with tennis elbow. The battery lasts long enough for me to do my home in one charge. I hoover anyway but 1sy time i used on my deep pile rug i was shocked with amount my dyson picked up without even usin boost that it has. Changes to handheld so sofas are a doddle to clean as well as stairs..i would recommend the dyson v7 to anyone who just needs one vac that does it all..dosent take long for battery to recharge after use
