The new Dyson V8 Carbon Fibre is a lean, mean dust busting machine

The never ending quest to purge dust bunnies, hair and dirt from your home is a perpetual war in the trenches that is, at best, a holding action from being inundated with crud. The new Dyson  V8 Carbon Fibre cord-free vacuum cleaner that’s been introduced in Malaysia may just break that deadlock as it is the equivalent of a tactical nuke in the war on dirt.

Engineered with Dyson’s slavish attention to detail, the V8 Carbon Fibre is a beefed up version of the Dyson V8 that offers 30% more suction power. A bunch of improvements have also been incorporated all around to make it more powerful and more efficient.

The built-in nickel-cobalt-aluminium battery has been juiced up to now offer 40 minutes of power away from the mains before it needs a recharge, allowing you to clean tricky spots that are away from a power plug that a traditional vacuum cleaner would have trouble getting to.

The cleaner head has been specially designed as well with the V8 Carbon Fibre so that it picks up dirt, soft fibres and pet hair too in one fell swoop. Better yet, the whole affair is sealed and has built-in infiltration to snag allergens and ensures that clean air is expelled when in operation.

To ensure that your hands are not besmirched with collected crud when you empty the V8 Carbon Fibre, the machine even has a nifty rubber collar that scrapes every chunk of dirt out out of the bin. Just for bragging rights, they’ve even ensured that the bin is made of the same stuff as what they use to make riot shields; handy if the zombocalypse happens when you’re doing the carpets. The Dyson V8 carbon Fibre is available at good retailers nationwide in Malaysia for RM3,399.
