I’ve not used a Dyson so I’m obviously biased but on paper I don’t see how you could compare the two. The T20 is (supposedly) far better.
I have a T20 and it’s been absolutely amazing so far.
I've ready that the T20 tends to have issues with the motor
According to the ebay listing, the charger and docking station are not in the box. They are explicitly listed for other refubished items.
Does it specify it is not in the box or it just doesn't say that it is?
The charger and docking station are not in the list of items in the box. It is for other refurbished products, eg. V8 Animal Extra.
Should that be a concern?

Hi there,
Thank you for your message.
The V8 Animal includes the battery, charger and docking station, as well as a Mini Motorhead, Stubborn Dirt brush, Combination tool, Crevice tool and Docking station.
While there may be slight cosmetic markings on a refurbished machine, please be assured all refurbished machines are thoroughly tested by our Dyson technicians and official Dyson parts are used for any replacements that may be required. The machines are again thoroughly tested to ensure they are running to specification and include a 1-year guarantee should there be anything we can assist with.
We hope this has answered your query today. Please don't hesitate to message us back if we can be of any assistance moving forward.
Better off brand new for an extra $94?
If you want to ensure you get the original box. But that's $94, pls.
Double the warranty period, plus this (if you want your $400-500 purchase to look new)
there may be slight cosmetic markings on a refurbished machine
True, some people need it 100% brand new.
But my assumption is it's going to be "slightly cosmeticly marked" after the first month, it's a vacuum cleaner, after all; and re the warranty - it's supposed to work for a reasonable time, according to ACL, which is usually two years, right? Not sure if ebay and paypal are adding some security here too. Happy to be corrected.
@pizzaguy: I didn't think ACL applied to refurbished goods.
ACCC statesA refurbished good or part is likely to be considered as a used good/part that has been reconditioned or restored to an acceptable working order.
So it's considered used. It could essentially have been used for 18 months before being replaced on warranty and refurbished.
I think better buy brandnew unless refurbisheds have the brandnew battery
That's my understanding, that the battery is new - like in refurbished Apple products.
🤞
Can someone confirm this?
@mrtee: Probably. Shoot a message to Dyson.
I bought a V8 refurb from Dyson's ebay In Feb last year and haven't had any issues with it.
Other than not being in retail packaging it looked pristine when we got it and has performed fine since them.I bought V8 Absolute for $499 (two more head than this one) last year. It came in a plain Dyson box with refurbished sign on it. Everything looks new (no used mark, no strange smell) to me but they were all packed separately with plastic bags. It works no problem at all. Dif worth refurbished one.
This or the dreame t20 for the same price?
