I got this vacuum not too long ago and I'm absolutely in love with it. Vacuuming is fast and easy and the battery life lasts just long enough to vacuum my 700sqft apartment in one go. The downside is the vacuum doesn't edge very well and you need to go over the edges separately with the edge tool. There isn't enough battery life to do both in my apartment.
There is less suction in the V7 model than all the other stick models, (and all stick models have less suction than the stand ups) I can tell the difference between the V7 and the stand-up models, but not the other stick models. Vacuum often if you have pets, and a full sized house would need to be done in sections.
The vacuum is quiet, the carpet head turns very easily and is great for sharp corners, and cleaning it out is the easiest I've personally seen.
What makes this vacuum so wonderful is it's lightweight and extremely versatile. You can add all the attachments to the stick or directly onto the motorhead creating both a full and hand held vacuum. Doing the blinds, vents and lamp shades is extremely easy without hassling with the long awkward arm. You could even clean your car with relative ease.
I do wish the stick part of the vacuum could be extended for a longer reach. I'm 5'7" and the stick causes me to have to bend slightly when the vacuum is extended. The repeated motion is the biggest stressor on my back while vacuuming. I imagine this would only be exacerbated in taller people. One thing to note, it's basically the same height as all other vacuums so this issue is not unique to this one.
The thing that speaks volumes for me is how this vacuum has made all the difference for my back. When vacuuming with the older Dyson ball animal model my back would hurt for 1.5-2 weeks and I couldn't do any lifting for fear of tossing my back out. I avoided vacuuming as much as possible. Whereas with the V7 Stick it's a breeze and I only feel some back pain for the remainder of the day. I'm perfectly fine the next day.
The battery life has ended up being a positive for me because it stops me from overdoing it on the vacuuming. Once I start cleaning- I generally don't stop until every possible thing is done, but the vacuum shuts off before I can overdo it.
All in all the positives are extremely positive and the negatives aren't too negative.
TLDR:
Positives:
Battery life, lightweight, extremely versatile, quiet, Vac head turns easily, cleaning, good for back injuries
Neutral:
Vacuum height
Negative:
Battery life, less suction than other models, poor edging

THIS IS THE ONE.
So I had bought 2 other small inexpensive vacuums to no avail before deciding to spend the coin on something a little more expensive,and let me just say ITS WORTH IT. I live in a 2br apartment so its not too big but our carpet is long and any other vacuum we tried just didnt cut it. This dyson is a game changer, its cordless, powerful, and doesnt take up space, its battery lasts long enough for my apartment and the wall charger doesnt really need to be mounted it worked fine the first few days I just had it proped up against a wall. My SO and I were so happy when we saw how much this thing picked up, hair did wrap around the brush roller but I dont mind taking care of it, its worth the maintaining for how good of a job it does. So pleased with it!

¡Muy buen producto!
La verdad estaba muy escéptica debido a todos los comentarios negativos acerca de esta aspiradora, incluso estuve a punto de cancelar la compra porque no me aparecía fecha estimada de entrega. Me alegro de no haberlo hecho ya que ha sido una muy buena compra, es muy práctica, está un poco más pesada de lo que pensé pero nada que un adulto no pueda soportar.Michelle Lozano¡Muy buen producto!

Si lo que quieres es aspirar toda la casa, esta no es la mejor opción, yo solo he aspirado algunos tapetes y polvo que se acumula de un día a otro después de haber hecho la limpieza completa, con esto me aseguro de que siempre esté libre de basuritas y polvo el piso.
Actualización: Sigue funcionando a la perfección, ya la uso más, en mi casa si reemplazamos la escoba por esta maravilla, definitivamente vale la pena comprarla ya que funciona tanto para pisos como para alfombras y sillones y más.
