Appears to be the cheapest this vacuum has been.
Part of the Myer 20% eBay sale post here.
I wonder if I can attach my old V6 wand to this?
You could certainly insert your wand into it
Not sure if joking or not lol. Seriously, will the V6 wand and attachments fit on this model?
@ozhunter68: No it won't. There is an adaptor for the end attachments u can buy off eBay for cheap. Adaptor fits between unit and attachments. However no power pin extensions on the adaptor…so think wand could connect but no power to the brush head
@Sammyboy: Interestingly I was able to attach a quick release attachment from a V10 to my V7 trigger. Perhaps these are (unofficially) compatible?
@P1xellat3d: The attachments for v11 and v7 look the same. The same red tab. V6 is very different attachments
@Sammyboy: Aah, that makes sense, planned obsolescence. Make you upgrade to complete new system.
The V10 and V11 would have come out around same time as V7 with same size/spec for attachments.
Haven't had any hand held Dyson. What's the difference from other V7?
absence of a shaft. Knowing Dyson they typically don't make things interchangeable for obvious reasons.
Depends if you like to have a shaft…I mean wand…or not
I just tried using the adaptor to connect the old V6 wand to the V11 and it does not connect! The socket on the wand has a few extra groves and bits compared to the v6 attachments. I've uploaded a pic of the adaptor, and another pic of how it connects to the old V6 accessories.
