Dyson V8 Cyclone Cordless Vacuum
A genuinely decent old vacuum at a genuinely bad price. The 3.4-star owner rating isn't about the machine breaking; it's about buyers doing the math after checkout.
Best for: Almost no one at this price. If it drops under $400 on sale, it becomes a defensible light-duty pick for small hard-floor homes that want the Dyson badge.

Legitimate large-room HEPA cleaning with a strong owner track record. The open questions are price against equal-coverage rivals and the long-term filter bill.
Best for: Allergy and asthma households, pet owners, wildfire-smoke regions, and anyone who wants one purifier serving a big living area instead of several small units.
