Dyson - V11 Animal

Ich hab mir nen Defekten Dyson V11 für 90€ geschossen und dann nochmal ca. 100€ für die Reparatur hingeblättert (Motor war Defekt aber es war nur die Komplette Griffeinheit erhältlich anstatt nur der Motor). Das Ding kam mit mega viele extras (Vorbesitzer hatte diese Animal Version oder wie die heißt). Bin ein absoluter Fan von der Saugleistung, vor allem den angetriebenen Bürsten am Saugkopf. Der Dyson wird primär verwendet um unser Sofa etc. zu reinigen, der Boden wird vom Roboterstaubsauger (Roborock S5 max) gesaugt. TL;DR: Ich bin mit der Dyson Qualität super zufrieden bisher, würde mir aber im Leben keinen neuen Kaufen bei den unverschämten Preisen.

I love my Dyson V11 Animal. It has withstood the past 5 years of weekly use against golden retriever, various foster dogs, and cat hair.

I got the V11 Pet and it’s great so far! About a year into using it daily

That’s what I thought, too. Here’s my math on that: I spent $1k on my Sebo in March. I added up the cost of the 3 Dyson vacuums( I’ve had since 2017) and the parts I’ve had to replace = I should have bought a Sebo sooner. Models I’m literally placing on the curb tomorrow for whoever wants them. I’ve had it with Dyson’s cheap plastic crap: The upright Dyson (2021), V6 (2017) replaced with V11 (2022). All have had their brush heads replaced. 2 of the 3 are broken again. Not sure what’s wrong with the upright, again. We don’t even use them heavily, I have cleaners in once every 2 weeks. It’s absurd.

Wow interesting. We had our Dyson Animal first generation for 15 years with two cats and two dogs. When it broke we bought the next generation one. Fingers crossed it lasts as long.

I have one of the original Animals, and it still keeps up with 2 cats who shed and track litter all over the place. I thought it was dying, but I replaced the big secondary filter. It's back up to speed now. I also have a cordless V8 or v10 that I picked up a year or two ago, and it's complete crap.

Yes the original Animal is a workhorse. The newer ball I don’t like as much.

I like mine a lot, but the biggest thing that bothers me is the battery. It doesn’t last quite long enough to vacuum my living room, kitchen, and back room. And it takes like 5 hours to charge. So vacuuming takes planning and I can’t get it all done at once anymore. My next vacuum will be a ryobi cordless.

Mine is definitely over 5 years at this point and the only issue is some battery degradation on max power mode. Ive used it almost daily this whole time.

I bought a Dyson v11 a few years ago. Used it for a good few years consistently. One day found a crack in the top cannister - that quickly became larger and became a hole. At which point suction dropped significantly. When calling up Dyson I’m not covered by warranty any longer - fine, I just want a working Vacuum. When asked for the replacement part, it would cost $200-300 dollars to replace. Annoying - fine, I just want a working Vacuum, asap. They don’t have the replacement part in stock, and I’d need to call back when they do. When I asked, how would I know when they have it in stock to know when to callback, I just got a blank response from the customer service rep saying that’s the process all their other customers have to go through to. 1) why do they have so many customers with broken Dyson devices 2) If this is a common fault in the V11, that they’ve run out of stock of this part, why the hell not keep more inventory. It was this day I decided I am an avid-Dyson hater, and will not buy another one of their overpriced, plastic, made in China products.
