Dyson Vacuum Motorhead (For V11)

I am pleased to be able to buy this replacement part for my Dyson V-11. I use it every day and want to extend the life of my machine. It arrived sooner than promised.

I had to replace. It works great.

was sent a used dirty head which didnt even work! check the seller, mine was spares-2-go. returned and bought from dyson officially for much less!

Purchased a non dyson head previously and it was a false economy. Although expensive this dyson motorhead is way better.

I’m up poop creek without a paddle because even though it says we bought from the “Dyson Store” on Amazon the product failed and there is NO product support from Dyson and it’s outside Amazon’s return window. We have a motor head that doesn’t work at all and we are out almost $150. I’m sick. And mad. Dyson is dead to me.

The turbo feature is very temperamental and does not work consistently. The item came without instructions or guidance on optimal use.

So, this was my 3rd one purchased. It seems that the motor constantly burns out and for me, its usually around the 3 month mark. I have even purchased this directly from Dyson thinking that maybe I got a fake. Well, even that one burned out and for the price of 128$, that was unacceptable. I cant keep shelling out that much money for a product that is very unreliable. It has no warranty, so your out of your money. Be aware of this if you decide to purchase. For me, I am going to go with a different head, maybe not as good, but at least it should be more reliable.

Works well

In the picture it shows the words High Torque on the Motörhead. The one I received doesn’t have that wording. Unless I misread what it states on Dyson’s webpage, there is a difference between High Torque and the non high torque. I don’t know how to rate it so I gave it three stars.

My wife and I knew going in that Dyson products are overpriced. But with a supposed lifespan of around 7 to 10 years, I figured that we would at least have a reliable product for quite a while. Wrong! After moderate usage at most, the original motorhead failed after 29 months---just 5 months out of warranty. None of the online steps to bring it back to life have worked. Its toast. After investing several hundred dollars in the vacuum, we decided to spring for a new motorhead to the tune of around $130. Another reviewer has mentioned that the replacement is smaller than the original. But I didnt realize it was going to be this tiny, as shown in the comparison photo. No doubt this is to save money producing the part. But considering what Dyson charges for its products, it shouldnt be this small. If I had known that we were going to have this kind of trouble with a Dyson vacuum, I would have brought a less expensive brand to begin with (he said with the usual perfect 20-20 hindsight). In any case, we wont be buying any more Dyson products after this. The next time this vacuum becomes unusable, we will cut our losses and move on to something else.
