Dyson launches V8 handheld vacuum with more power, double battery life and less noise
Dyson
has taken the wraps off its latest handheld vacuum, the V8, doubling
down on its dirt-busting power with a battery life that's twice as long,
50% quieter operation, as well as bigger capacity bin with a smarter
emptying function.
Anyone who has owned or used a Dyson handheld
will attest to the convenience and quality of the cordless appliance.
However, even its impressive predecessor the V6, had its sticking
points. This latest version has cleaned up its act with its new V8 motor
offering higher suction with A 40-minute battery life (compared to 20
minutes) so you won't have to vacuum in instalments.
More power, less noise
Despite offering more power, the V8 actually runs with 50% less noise, which Dyson demonstrated to IBTimes UK
and we found it to be far less whiney than previous models, allowing us
to hold a conversation with it on. This was achieved through 18 months
of research and development and 500,000 hours of testing.
All
those man hours have been put to good use elsewhere too as other
problems V6 owners will recognise, such as the dust bin filling too
quickly and having to dig out the dirt with a chopstick, will be a thing
of the past. The larger capacity bin (0.54 litres, up from 0.4 litres)
now benefits from a cleaner emptying system where the whole bin is
ejected by pushing down and pushing debris out, rather than the trapdoor
opening and letting gravity do it for you. This was one of our biggest
gripes of the previous machine and now it's a lot easier, not to mention
cleaner.
Price and availability
A price tag of £499.99
might make some wince but, before you run for the dustpan and brush,
Dyson is quick to point out how using one of its handhelds is worth the
price. Through research it has conducted it claims 51% of parents say
their kids are doing more cleaning with the Dyson handheld, plus
reporting that 63% people now actually enjoy cleaning and 8 out of 10
men find it more appealing with a Dyson. So there you go.
It said Daljinder Kaur gave birth to a baby boy at a fertility clinic in the northern Indian state of Haryana, following two years of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment. The report noted that though Kaur doesn’t possess any official paper to justify her age, but doctors at the hospital have registered her age as 72 years. It noted that if Kaur’s age is correct, that makes her one of the world’s oldest woman to become mother.
I believe that we were all sent here for a reason and that we all have significance in the world. I genuinely feel that we are all blessed with unique gifts. The expression of our gifts contributes to a cause greater than us.
