Choose V8 Cyclone if…
ValueLightweight
A lighter cordless Dyson focused on straightforward mixed-floor cleaning, a swappable battery and a materially longer Eco-mode runtime than the older V8 platform.
Trade-off: The 60-minute figure is an Eco-mode manufacturer claim and falls with powered heads or higher modes; choose it for lower weight and simpler ownership rather than assuming flagship cleaning performance.

SpecialistPets
A pet-focused cordless Shark with dirt sensing, self-cleaning brushroll and a larger 0.68 L dust cup for mixed-floor homes.
Trade-off: Shark states only around 9–10 minutes in its high modes, so the 60-minute headline is not representative of maximum-power cleaning. At 4 kg it is also substantially heavier than V8/V11.

Deeper Australian Product Guide evidence - still verify the current retailer offer and exact variant before purchase.These products already overlap on mixed floors; the deciding difference is more likely to be their distinctive use-case signals, exact specifications, current price and retailer availability.
Australian Product Guide does not currently have comparable maintained reference prices for every option in this shortlist, so price should be verified at the retailer rather than inferred.
None of the maintained options satisfies your non-negotiable deal-breakers, exact Australian model identity is unclear, or the evidence is too shallow for the decision you are making.
Exact model/variant, current retailer availability, current price, warranty/support terms and any specification that materially affects your use case.
