Stick Vacuum Recs (Hardwood floors only)
This. I have a Milwaukee M18 8amp battery on my v6 Dyson and I usually have to empty my canister before a recharge.

Stick Vacuum Recs (Hardwood floors only)
I found a couple of Dysons in the trash with a bad battery. Maybe a V6 and a V7. I replaced the battery on each with the ones from ifixit and they were fine. They have OK design from a usage viewpoint, but they all plasticky. Certain small failures can kill the machine due to inherent unrepairability and lack of parts support. So in summary, I can certainly recommend Dyson stick vacuums from the trash but I would never buy one new.
