Dyson V9 Motorbar vs V8 Cyclone

The Dyson V8 Cyclone and the Dyson V9 Motorbar are both models from Dyson's cordless stick lineup, but the V8 Cyclone is the better vacuum for most people, mainly because it has noticeably more suction. It's far better at lifting pet hair out of carpet, clears cracks and grout lines more thoroughly, and has a much bigger dustbin that you'll need to empty less often. It also lasts longer on low power and starts with a push button, while the Dyson V9 Motorbar forces you to hold down a trigger as you clean. The V9 is the better pick if you want the lightest vacuum possible, since it weighs about a pound less, which helps if you carry it between floors or clean above the floor a lot. It also has a screen that shows your remaining battery and maintenance alerts.
