Dyson V8 Animal
The Dyson V8 Animal hits the sweet spot in Dyson's cordless lineup: the performance gap from the V15 is minor for typical home use, but the $380 price gap is significant. Owners with pet hair in medium-sized homes (1000-1800 sq. ft.) find the V8 Animal handles everything they need without the V15's premium.
