  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭tw0nk


    no v8's :( but still good deals on the v6

    they are doing Black Friday specials this year also


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,742 ✭✭✭honda boi


    Yep sorry they refurbished , my father bought one of these a few weeks ago and came like brand new and registered online and got 2 years warranty.
    Yes I think the absolute is the highest spec one

    I've used them all. Wizard would get my vote for flexibility (assuming what you are buying will ship to NI)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,881 ✭✭✭terrydel


    Whats the difference between the V6 animal and dc59 animal, which is 33 quid sterling cheaper?

    I've used all three but I'm unsure which will accept these items, I think parcelwizard is best bet, 40 x 40 x 60? Definitel ytoo big for motel and address pal oversize charge is a flat €21!

    It depends on the floors in your house.
    I have the V8 absolute and it has hard floor, carpet attachments.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭Kaizersoze81


    Ordered the absolute , been on the lookout for one of these deals

    This one? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dyson-V6-Absolute-Cordless-Vacuum-Cleaner-Refurbished-1-Year-Guarantee-/121872572761?hash=item1c602be159

    What did you pay?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,796 ✭✭✭sweetie


    Plumped for the fluffy myself


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭Kaizersoze81




  • Registered Users Posts: 309 ✭✭Troy McClure


    Is the V6 only in the hand held or is there a version that's bigger which you pull around?


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 39,802 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gumbo

    The av6 is the handheld range. The pull around have a different range of motors.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,339 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Picked up the V6 animal when they refurbs ones were on sale on eBay a few months back.

    Quality etc with the refurb it was perfect, came plain packaged but otherwise appeared new.

    Just on the hoover itself, it's ok, don't expect it to clean a carpet. It's for a quick clean, it's not capable of a good deep clean. You'll still need a proper hoover.

    I haven't tried the V8 but if buying again I wouldn't buy the V6 it's just not powerful enough. We have a miele cat and dog and there's no comparison.

    The fluffy head, i'm still not getting it, we've an oak floor the normal v6 head is used on and it's fine, not sure it's worth the extra.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    Worked out as €260

    It wont let me buy this one. It says the seller may not deliver to Ireland. How did you get around that?

    Thanks, I read that earlier in the thread and immediately deleted it from my memory :-)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,751 ✭✭✭mirrorwall14


    We got a v6 absolute here and it's perfect. Does everything carpet, floors, tiles the lot. I've done more hoovering since I bought it coz it's so easy!


  • Registered Users Posts: 98 ✭✭coolbreeze01


    Does paypal allow you to change address to a uk one?
    Or are people paying with credit card?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,796 ✭✭✭sweetie

    Mine does, have parcelmotel, parcelwizard, work, home etc and change to whichever suits me.

    BTW mine has shipped to parcelwizard, it seems they may have left the PW code off the address though....I may give them a heads up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,958 ✭✭✭✭Shefwedfan


    I have a mixture of wooden and tiled floors. What would be recommended?

    I think you have hit the nail on the head here.
    These are not more powerful than the traditional Nilfisk units or anything but because of their handiness I find myself grabbing it daily and doing a different room as you go about. This in turns leads to the whole house getting hovered more often.

    There was a breakdown on the HDUK thread, it was quite helpful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,719 ✭✭✭cronos


    Any of these actually a really good deal?


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 39,802 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gumbo

    Yes if your actually in the market for one.
    We use our handheld now 100% of the time. It has replaced the main pull around Hoover. One full charge, and I can get my whole house done (3 storey/125 Sq. M) with a mixture of max power for the carpets and only need low power for the hard floors.

    I'm in the market for one but can wait for Jan/Feb as waiting on a new house. I guess I'm asking which is black friday good value ;)

    Agh right.
    There's another thread on here about them.
    I have been researching changing from my older DC34 Animal for the last month.
    I checked every single one of them out.
    This dyson sale is a refurb sale and they happen every now and again.
    If you want brand new, the cheapest in Ireland and England at the moment is Donaghys up north.

    There's no V8's on the eBay sale, that's what I ended up with (Absolute Version).

    Its the cheapest the V6 models have been on their eBay store so far.
    I bought one a few weeks ago and it was around 155 pounds.

    Any idea of the difference between the v6 and the v6 absolute. I assume you got the v6 which is now 143 GBP

    Different head attachments.
    Do you have all hard floors or a mixture or all carpet?

    Mostly laminate and tile. Might have some carpet on the stairs.

    You'd need V8 for carpet, we've v6 and it's not good enough, alright for a quick hoover but that's about it.

    Which one?
    I read that the heads can make a big difference

    Not sure what head I have, I know it's not the fluffy head one as was going to get it but then thought what was the point, it looks like it'd be worse on the wodden floor, it doesn't hoover it scatters stuff with that rotating head, it wouldn't pick up a pea for example it just flings it off somewhere else in the room.
    At the cheap price it's a handy hoover for the car or shifting small dirt, it certainly isn't a replacement for a real hoover, you'll still find yourself going back to the normal hoover for a proper clean.
