This Fourth of July Deal Sucks (Literally). Dyson’s V8 Absolute Vacuum Falls to a New Low Price
Save $290: Fourth of July deals are here, bringing down the price of CNET-favorite, the Dyson V8 Absolute cordless vac, to just $300. Listed as the best budget vacuum cleaner in CNET’s list of best vacuum cleaners, the Dyson V8 Absolute is now up for grabs at its lowest price yet.
Originally priced at $590, this nearly 50% discount chops a massive $290 off the sticker price. We tracked its pricing across retailers, and the previous best Amazon deal bottomed out at $347. That makes this deal almost $50 better. Not bad for a vacuum that’s about to humble all the dust in your home.
From couch crumbs to deep cleaning, its two power modes are ready for every mess. Its compact design helps it reach every tight spot, while its lightweight build makes cleaning upper shelves and corners a breeze.
CNET expert Ajay Kumar tested it and noted that this cordless vacuum, “comes with 115 air watts of suction and did great on hard flooring, removing nearly 98% of sand. Carpet was more of a challenge, with 68.3% of sand from low-pile and 52% from mid-pile carpets, falling short of most of Dyson’s lineup and competitors like the Levoit LVAC-200 and Shark Stratos.”
The Dyson V8 gives you up to 40 minutes of cleaning time on a single charge, and the HEPA filter ensures your house is free of any allergens. Kumar liked the vacuum’s affordability and plenty of included attachments, including the Motorbar cleaner head, Fluffy optic cleaner head, combination tool, crevice tool, hair screw tool and docking station.
