It was still fully functional but was just getting too heavy and cumbersome for me to use in my small apartment. I was able to sell my old, fully working dyson (which still had amazing pick up btw) for $75. I sold a few other household items and then, I was able to buy my dyson at a great price here on desertcart. :-) I also have a small ergorapido vacuum but i was getting extremely frustrated at how poor the suction was. It is essentially useless and was a waste of $100. I am trying to sell that too but alas, no one is biting!! Not surprised there!!! First off, it was better than Christmas when this new dyson arrived. The boxing was impeccable and each piece is high quality. I was very excited to use my vacuum because my apartment had not been thoroughly deep cleaned in a while!! The old dyson being way too difficult for me to maneuver with my back problem and the ergorapido being completely USELESS. My allergies were also really flaring up with all the dust!! So, the first time I used the V11 I was extremely impressed with the pick up capacity. I was able to clean the vacuum my entire apartment, with base boards and detailing of dusty furniture and blinds, in under 45 minutes one morning before I went to work. I couldn't believe how much dust there was but already my eyes and sinuses are LESS itchy. I emptied the canister twice because I picked up so MUCH DUST. Although it was slightly heavier than I was anticipating, it is MUCH lighter and easier to maneuver than my old dyson animal. I didn't break a sweat like I did with the old dyson. It rolls very smoothly and the AUTO adjustable function between the rug and carpet saves A LOT OF TIME. I was able to clean so much more in less time because I wasn't messing with a cord and switching between the different functions constantly. I was able to complete EVERYTHING on one charge of course with plenty of time to spare. I love all the attachment heads that come with it. I am also VERY much looking to keeping my car more clean on a regular basis now that I have a portable vacuum with great attachments as well! I also really like the feature where you can remove the roller from the side of the vacuum head. I have long hair and wanted something that I would be able to easily remove the hair! I was unable to unscrew the side of it easily but that was ok because I was still able to pull the hair out pretty easily, much more easily than other vacuums I have used in the past. CAVEATS: Make sure to empty the vacuum BEFORE there is too much stuff in it! Debris WILL get caught if it goes above the line! I had to spend a little time really getting the canister cleaned out before I started round 2 because my hair got caught above the line! Next time, I will empty it sooner! Vacuuming just got so much easier I barely even noticed how much I was really picking up so fast! Now that my apartment is so clean, the V11 will make it much more enjoyable and easier for me to maintain a cleaner home. I will be vacuuming more frequently now to maintain areas because of the ease of using the vacuum. It is a highly effective vacuum and there isn't much of a need to have to run the vacuum over multiple times in one location. It picks up what it rolls over very well. For installation of the hanging charging station on the wall, make sure you have a drill on hand to make the holes for the screw to go into! It didn't say that in the directions but you will need a drill to make the pilot holes! :-) I love that you can hang the vacuum out of sight just about anywhere near an outlet! I am VERY pleased with my purchase and my dyson upgrade! I can see this one lasting me at least another ten years which to me is worth it, considering my last one was still going for over 10+! I also love the interface. It is a really really COOL vacuum and it was worth the effort to let go of my old dyson for a new one! Review: Very lightweight and versatile. Great for disabled or handicapped users. - I am writing this review from the perspective of someone who is in a wheelchair. I am paralyzed: I have no abdominal support, and my hands are weakβ€”like 50% strength (C7 complete). I'll also mention that my house is carpeted, so that is its primary use. I'll leave performance reviews for others who have done much more testing than me (there's some great resources out there... a surprising number really). Upsides: First, let me say this: if you're in a wheelchair, corded vacuums are out of the question. They're heavy, they're unwieldy, and the cord gets in the way all of the time. Thus, you need a battery-powered vacuum, in which case you're probably getting a lightweight stick vacuum. Stick vacuums are your best option if you're in a wheelchair. There's no cord to get in your way, and they're light enough to where you can just vacuum with one hand and maneuver yourself with the other. Maintenance is not an issue: it's easy to empty the waste receptacle, and it's easy to clean the filter. When it comes to using the extension stick or leaving it off, I actually find it's easier to attach the power head directly to the vacuum and just lean over/forward to vacuum. This is an option that the Dyson V11 gives you, which other non-adjustable vacuums do not. If you're low to the ground (perhaps because you're short or because you're in a wheelchair) then you might not want all that extra length of the "stick" attachment, since it forces the head to protrude too far forward, which hurts leverage and becomes unwieldy. In contrast, if you live with a normal-bodied person who also uses the vacuum, then they probably want the stick on, so it's good to have the option to leave the stick on/off when using the power head, which this vacuum offers. Downsides: To keep the weight down, the waste receptacle is quite small. This means you'll have to empty it frequently. This is a problem inherent with just about all stick vacuums, so it's something you'll just have to accept. At least you don't have to purchase bags. The dust filter seems to get dirty very quickly (I have a dusty old house with two pets, so your mileage may vary). This is a good thing and a bad thing. On the one hand, it's tedious to have to clean the filter so often (like after every full-home vacuuming). On the other hand, it's quite effective at filtering dust, which is a good thing (less dust is expelled into the air). It's easy to remove and clean the filter, so no issues there. To use the vacuum, you must hold the button at all times. This is intended to conserve battery power, but it makes using the vacuum more difficult, especially when you have limited hand function like me. Luckily, however, you can buy a "button lock" from a 3rd party manufacturer for Dyson vacuums. However, it'd be nice if they just had a click on/off method instead. -- In sum, I'd say a stick vacuum is the best option for someone who is disabled and/or in a wheelchair. This Dyson was very expensive, but I have no buyer's remorse. It's very good just on its own merits, and it's great for me. ## Features - Dyson's most intelligent, powerful cordless vacuum.

You can see this, and the difference in the display, at the Dyson site. **Q: Replaceable battery** A: My V11 stopped working today, zero power and lights don't turn on when it is plugged in. I was told they will be sending me a replacement batter in 7-10 business days for free as it is under the 1 year warranty. I was told that certain serial numbers had "bad batteries" and mine was on the list. Worked fantastic up until today. So long as the new battery does the trick for my machine, I will continue to be a very happy V11 owner. I will update once I have the new battery. **Q: Do you still have to hold the trigger down for it to run or is there an on/off switch? Thats been the only thing preventing me from buying a one.** A: The "only thing" preventing me buying the V11 is the absolutely puzzling decision by Dyson to ship this thing with a single battery and make replacing a battery a 10 minute operation involving hand tools and three screws. What battery powered tool does not have a quick change battery pack in 2019? Answer.....Dyson! So, even if you're willing to buy a second or third battery, it would be unusable That means you're stuck with 10 or 15 minutes of use on anything but hardwood floors or tile. And that makes this thing an overpowered DustBuster for small spills, not a tool to replace a corded vacuum. **Q: is compatible with 220v ?** A: The charger does support 220V with a plug adapter. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an upgrade! *by L***A on January 24, 2020* I bought the Dyson Animal in 2007 and had it for 10+ years.

Instead, I opted to replace it with a cordless vacuum which was not a Dyson and was cheaper. The new one lasted about a year.....won't do that again. I can spend almost $150 a year and buy a cheaper cordless vac or I can buy the best and have it last a whole lot longer. I opted for the latter and I am delirious with my decision. I'm telling you, the Dyson V11 Animal has far exceeded my expectations. It has super suction and I love the way you can select auto adjustment from hard floors to carpet or you can leave it on what you want if you don't want to do that. It is so easy to use yet is powerful beyond belief. Yeah, it was a little pricey but not if you want THE BEST. I have 2 Dyson canister vacuums (one for each end of the house) but I find myself grabbing the V11 Animal more frequently. It even sounds powerful yet it is not very noisy. I LOVE IT!!!! It cleans like crazy. It is definitely worth the price. I'll stick to Dyson from now on....no more less expensive cordless vacuums for me....HOORAY DYSON!!!!!! ## Frequently Bought Together - Dyson V11 Torque Drive Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, Blue - 2 Pack Filters Replacement for Dyson Cordless Vacuum V11, V11 Torque Drive, V11 Animal, Dyson V11 Filter Replacement Part HEPA Replace Part No. 970013-02 - XIGOO Storage-Stand-Docking-Station-Holder Compatible with V15 Detect V11 V10 V8 V7 V6 Cordless Vacuum Cleaners & Accessories, Stable Metal Bracket Organizer Rack, Brushed Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/117662296-v11-torque-drive-cordless-vacuum-cleaner-blue](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/117662296-v11-torque-drive-cordless-vacuum-cleaner-blue) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
