The Dyson vacuum lineup has grown to an extensive collection, considering corded, cordless, canister, upright, handhelds, and stick models.
Many of their vacuums come with a large number of tools and accessories with a simple one-touch connection.
The simplicity of the Dyson tools may lead you to wonder—are any of the tools compatible between models?
If you have an older model and looking to upgrade, can you use some of the same tools?
The answer is a bit of a gray area, but this guide will take a shot at breaking down the compatibility and cross-use between models.
Let’s dive in.

What Dysons attachments are compatible within the V6, V7, V8, V10, and V11?
The answer is complicated as there are a couple other questions that likley need to be asnwered first.
Two of the biggest questions being:
- What models are you crossing?
- What tools are you crossing?
Some models simply don’t play well with others, namely the Dyson V6 (and anything older than the V6).
The V6 cleaning heads are only compatible with other V6 variations as the V6 uses the old grey button accessory system.
Cleaning Heads
V7, V8, V10, and V11 cleaning heads are compatible with each other. At least to the degree that they will click in and turn on.
However, because the higher end vacuums have more power and suction their cleaning heads require more power to operate.
As a result, you may get less than ideal performance when using cleaning heads from the more recent models with older vacuums.
For example, while the V11 Outsize cleaning head will attach to and turn on with the V7. However, the V7 struggles to operate the V11 Outsize’s cleaning head and cannot operate at all on max mode.
This is because the V7 just doesn’t have enough motor power. In general, you want to use cleaning heads that are within 1 generation. For example, if you have a V11 cleaning head, but want to use it with a V10 body, that should be fine.
As the V10 has sufficient power to operate those cleaning heads.
However, you wouldn’t want to use V11 cleaning heads on a V7 or V8, as the relative motor and battery performance of those lower end models will struggle to operate the higher performance cleaning head.
Wall Charging Mounts
What about compatibility between wall charging mounts—can you cross different wall chargers?
In general, no, but there are a few models that are cross-compatible.
| Model | Compatible With |
|---|---|
| V6 | V6 only |
| V7 | V7 and V8 |
| V8 | V7 and V8 |
| V10 | V10 and V11 |
| V11 | V11 only |
Dyson V6
Only the V6 is able to fit on the V6 wall charging mount. It will not fit on any other mount and no other model will fit on the V6 mount.
Dyson V7 & V8
The V7 and V8 are cross-compatible with each other. A V7 can work on a V8 wall mount and vice versa.
Dyson V10
Only the V10 will fit on the V10 wall charging mount. However, the V10 can also work on a V11 charging mount.
That said, it is slightly too narrow for the dock, so it will not fit as snugly as it should. In general, we would not recommend docking the V10 on a V11 mount.
Dyson V11
The V11 Torque Drive, Animal, and Outsize all use the same charging dock. They are cross-compatible with each other, but the V11 cannot be docked on any other wall charging dock.
In general, the reason why many of the wall charging docks are not cross-compatible is that the handle, motor, and canister design is slightly different.
As a result, a slightly modified wall charging station is required to create a snug wall mounted fit.
What attachments are compatible on the V6, V7, V8, V10, and V11?
Dyson V6
Nothing is cross compatible on the V6. Only accessories designed for the V6 will work on the V6.
As mentioned above, the V6 uses a gray, one-touch connection. You simply press the button and pull the two pieces apart.
Dyson V7, V8, V10, and V11
With the V7, Dyson launched a new system that used a red one-click button. A new color also insinuated a new design.
All accessories on the V7, V8, V10, and V11 are interchangeable and will work on any of the aforementioned models. All of these vacuums use Dyson’s red button clickable accessory system.
Are Dyson V6 and V7 parts / attachments interchangeable?
Dyson V6 and V7 parts are not interchangeable. The parts and accessories designed for the Dyson V6 will only work on the V6.
The Dyson V6 has a different clickable system and different features than the V7. This means you cannot use the same soft roller head, brushes, and other accessories for both models. However, you may use special adapters to attach non-powered V6 accessories to a V7, V8, or other models.
Dyson V6 attachments are also incompatible with the V8, V10, V11, and V15.
Are accessories compatible with each other?
If the question spans different vacuum types, like canister, upright, cordless stick, or handhelds, the answer is going to be no, in general.
But within the same family of vacuum types, there is some cross-compatibility.
Dyson Cordless Vacuums
Dyson’s cordless stick vacuums (the V-series) mostly use the same red button clickable system. The V6 is the only vacuum within this series that has a special system that only it uses. But the V7, V8, V10, and V11 are all cross-compatible and interchangeable with each other.
Dyson Upright Vacuums
Dyson’s uprights use a system similar to the V6’s grey click system. Most of Dyson’s newer uprights use this accessory system. As a result, many Dyson upright models have cross-compatible accessories with other Dyson uprights.
Dyson Canister Vacuums
Dyson canister vacuums use the red button clickable system, similar to the same system that the V-series uses. However, it is not actually the same.
The wand tubing has a slightly larger diameter, as a result, V-series accessories will not be compatible with the Dyson canister vacuums. However, like the Dyson uprights, other Dyson canister vacuums will be compatible with each other.
Can you use a new model battery with an older model?
Can you use a higher capacity battery from a more recent Dyson V-series vacuum model (like the V10 or V11) on an older Dyson cordless vacuum to increase run time?
In general, no.
People usually want to do this to get better run time performance out of old models. However, the batteries are not cross compatible.
That said, you can buy batteries made by 3rd parties. These are designed for the specific model, but usually have an upgraded capacity compared to the stock battery that Dyson includes. As a result, you can get more run time out of older V-series models.
Please note, using a non-Dyson made battery will void your warranty. We wouldn’t recommend a 3rd party battery until you are beyond your warranty period.
RELATED: You can find replacement Dyson batteries here.
Can you buy a standalone Dyson soft roller brush?
Many people want a Dyson soft roller brush, but don’t want to pay the extra price for the Absolute models.
If you already have an older model soft brush there is a good chance it will work with your newer Dyson.
You can also buy a standalone Dyson soft roller brush here.
Or buy a compatible Dyson soft roller brush made by a 3rd party here.
What about other Dyson accessories, attachments, and stands?
Many 3rd parties make a wide variety of accessories for Dyson that Dyson may not offer, including:
NOTE: With any 3rd party accessory double check that it works with your specific model. Just as with Dyson branded accessories, 3rd party accessories have to use the special click-in system for that model to be compatible.
Warranty Concerns
Regardless of which model you have or are upgrading too, all Dyson vacuums are subject to potential warranty issues when cross-using accessories among models.
You should note that using accessories that are not explicitly designed for that model has the potential to void your warranty.
If you’re outside of the warranty period it’s probably fine, however, if you still are within the warranty period we would recommend always using accessories designed for that specific model.
Dysons cordless stick vacuums have two different styles of accessories.
- Dyson’s red button clickable accessories: V7, V8, V10, V11
- Dyson’s gray button clickable accessories: V6 only
While red button clickable accessories look similar, they are slightly different between different model types.
Dyson canister vacuums use the red button system also, however, the wand tubing is slightly larger, so the V-series and canister vacuum accessories are not cross compatible with each other.
Same issue with Dyson’s uprights, while they look similar in many cases, they are in fact different.
In general, the more recent uprights are compatible with more recent uprights…more recent canister vacuums are compatible with more recent canisters…and more recent V-series are compatible with more recent v-series
Dyson Accessory Compatibility Summary
Here are some other general guidelines to keep in mind:
Passive accessories are always okay, provided they will click in (includes tools like the crevice tool, dusting brush, basically anything that isn’t powered).
Powered accessories in most cases will work between models, but may not be ideal.
For example…
- A V11 High Torque cleaning head will work with a V7 vacuum, however, the V7 motor and battery weren’t designed to power the increased demands imposed by the V11’s cleaning head
- A V7 vacuum can attach a V11 Outsize cleaning head, however, the V7 really struggles to run it at all. As a result, performance may be as good and it could potentially damage the motor.
It probably also will void your warranty.
If you want to use different model accessories more safely then you should try to use older accessories with newer models.
For example, use a V7 soft roller brush with a V10 cordless vacuum. This way, the V10 has more than enough power to run the V7’s brush, since it’s new and has better performance.
If you’re using newer accessories with older models I would suggest finding accessories that are only 1 generation removed.
For example, using a V10 soft roller brush cleaning head with a V8 vacuum would be fine.
Or using a mini motorized brushroll from the V8 on a V7 would also be fine. You just want to avoid using stuff that’s several generations different.

Hi, I have a V11 and I’m wanting to get my hands on just the head attachment for the 15v submarine the mop part as it’s sealed and doesn’t actually suck, only mops I’m wondering if it will still be compatible with the size of the v11 and work on that? Thanks for your help
It is not compatible (I verified it yesterday as our Submarine just arrived).
The Submarine head seems to only be compatible with the Submarine body (which is a V15 body that is designed only to work with the Submarine head).
Yesterday, Dyson chat also confirmed that they have no plans to sell the Submarine head as a standalone attachment.
Hi. I have a cyclone v10 animal. My son accidentally trod on the wand and has dented it. Will this affect performance? Also were I to get another wand, which model’s wands downwards are compatible?
Eh…it probably won’t impact the performance. But if you think it is or you just want to replace it you can get a replacement wand here – https://www.amazon.com/s?k=dyson+wand+replacement+v10&i=garden&crid=1EZVHCEB2AWEX&geniuslink=true&sprefix=dyson+wand+replacement+v10%2Cgarden%2C148&tag=mc_1001-20&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
Hi again, sorry, Ray here, I put the wrong number of my Dyson v11 Animal Extra on my last message. It should be SV17, (not SK17), my apologies. Thanks Ray
No problem.
Same answer though.
Hello, I have a Dyson v11 Animal Extra, SK17, will the hi torque Motorhead work with this machine and will the detect system function?.
Yes
Can I charge a DC44 model on my charging seat for a Dyson V6? So an older model on a Dyson V6 charger seat ? It seems to fit ok?
Yes, that should be fine.
My dyson serial nos starts VR6
spare parts appear to be V6 are these compatible with VR6
Thank you
I’m not sure what model that is. Do you have a picture of it?
I have and love my Dyson DC17 Blue bought it Early 2000’s. What model or year of Dyson are compatible with the Dyson DC17 blue parts or tools?
Welcome suggestion where to locate parts for a DC17? Filters belts…
I don’t think Dyson still makes parts for that unit. Possibly a Dyson service center could help.
which Dyson V8 tools work with a Dyson V12.?
please advise
…..
None of them
I want to use tools from my DYSON – Big Ball Total Clean Cylinder Bagless Vacuum Cleaner – Red & Iron with my cordless V10 Dyson. Is there an adapter available for that?
There is not.
We have lived in various countries… I have a D36c and a cordless V7 – both on different connector systems. I also have a soft rolling brush and two mini heads from a previous purchase that won’t fit either machine! Are there any adapters I can purchase to make it work?
There are not.
Hi Derek,
Thank you for all your useful information.
I have just purchased battery adaptors that my 18v Bosch battery to goes on to. So now I run my V6 & V8 on my18v bosch batteries.
They make adaptors for most top 18v brands like Bosch, Makita, Dewalt etc
V6, V8 V10.
Nice! I’ve heard of those, but haven’t tried them. Glad to hear they are working well.
Hi,
I have an older Dyson DC61, and just bought a new V7. I can not use some of the attachments from DC61 to V7.
Is there an adapter form DC61 to V7?
Thanks,
Martin
There is not.
which brush dyson use for parquet
Straight suction brush. Don’t use a brushroll.
hello,
I have a v10 head and I tried with my V8 slim fluffy; the brush rolls when pressing the bottom but when touching the floor it gets stuck and only rolls when I move the vacuum. Do you think it can break the v8 slim fluffy engine?
thanks
Yes, you can break it. I’m surprised it works at all. Slim additions should only be used with only slim accessories / bodies.
I have a v6 but my mini motor cleaning head will not fit any reason why. It is the grey release on my head but stops when connecting at the power connectors
Not sure…it’s possible it’s from an older accessory pack, or it’s possible you have a special international version of the V6.
First off, you are a Saint for the attention you pay to these comments. I think it shows your wonderful passion and possibly the lack of support from Dyson.
I have a V10 Furry that I bought in Singapore. Now that I’ve moved to Vietnam the models they carry and support are different. Currently they only offer replacement heads for the V8 Slim Fluffy and the V12 Detect Slim Absolute/ Extra. Will either of these work?
I can’t just buy these online either, I’m in a back and forth email chain with Dyson where I’m forced to verify that I own a unit and give them my first born before they’ll work with me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Unfortunately, they will not, since they are “slim” versions they are smaller than the V10 you need.
You need a standard version of the Dyson V7, V8, V10, or V11. Anything marked as “slim” won’t work.
Hope that helps!
What kind of gaget is used to remove brush from holder to clean the brush. I already have striped several of them by using a quarter trying to turn it to unrelease brush to clean it..
It depends on the model, but usually a quarter or flat head screwdriver is all you need.

Can u tell me please,
The strips in the motorised floor attachment of a v7 motorhead are 1 black 1 red.
I ordered just the generic strips on ebay and they are both too wide however the red one will fit where the black one should be?
Does it matter if I put 2 red strips in it as the original red one is fine it’s only the black one that is worn down.
thankyou
lesley
Can you clarify what you mean by “strips”. I really don’t know what you’re talking about.
hi got a v8 absolute thats knackered looking to get a v7 motor head is everything accessories wise going to work OK?
thanks
Yes, V8 and V7 accessories are cross compatible.
Hello
Is there an adapter to use a v11 motorized floor tool on a v10 absolute?
The v11 wand is smaller diameter than the v10 and the electrical contacts on the v11 tool are different to those on the wand of the v10.
Thankyou
Andrew
The standard V11, V11 Outsize, and V10 absolute are all cross compatible.
I’m not sure what version you have where the wand is smaller.
Is there a mop head available that would be compatible with the v10
Cyclone?
An actual mop head? No
But any of the V-series fluffy heads are compatible.

I need a new brush bar on v7 model which has 3 prongs. I can’t source one anywhere. I notice the v10 has 3 prongs. Are they interchangeable? Any other options? Thanks
V7 and V10 cleaning head are interchangeable.

jeanne
Anything that fits on the Dyson Animal 2 or Dyson Multi Floor 2 will also work on the Dyson Animal 3.
Can V12 use with which otherV type accessory?like V15,V11
Many thanks
Wis
It cannot use any other types. V12 is a slimmer system and is only compatible with itself.
Hi have an old Dyson v6 and would like to know if the various colour
coded attachments are interchangeable.
Many thanks
Rdc
Other color versions of the V6 are interchangeable, but not other versions of the V-series (IE, v7, v8, v10, etc.), which are also different colors.
Hi will I have any issues using the v11 outsize head work on the standard v11
Yes it will work
Will the canister and battery and body parts interchange between a mod sv03 and a sv09
Yes
I have quite a few tools for the corded dc39 model. Are they compatible with any current Dyson vacuums?
Thanks
They are not.
Hi Derek,
I’m sure you have already answered this question within your very helpful information above, but just wanted to confirm.
I have a V10 cordless and the direct drive cleaner head stopped rotating, as the actual head (not machine itself) was still under guarantee Dyson agreed to send me a replacement.
However, when I received confirmation it shows they have ordered a torque drive cleaner motorhead. On contacting Dyson I was informed once received I can send back & then they will then order the correct head. So my question is, would the torque drive cleaner motörhead work with my V10? Here’s hoping it will! Thank you
Torque Drive cleaning head will work and is in fact the better head. Torque Drive cleaning head came with the V10 Absolute, the most expensive version. And it was also standard on the V11.
So what you’re getting no only works, but is a substantial upgrade from your direct drive cleaner head.
Hi Derek, i thought I submitted a question but i no longer see it here. The question i asked was
I have a TheDyson DC78 Turbinehead Animal and went on Dyson to get a new handle but they’ve been out if stock for sometime and im curious if another handle in the DC series work for mine.
Thank you in advance,
Wm
There may be some, but I don’t know of any off the top of my head that are compatible. When it comes to handles there is very little cross model compatibility for Dyson.
Hi Derek
The handle on my dc33 has broke and I want to get a replacement. On searches no mention of dc33 but dc32, dc36 and dc37 are mentioned. Would any of these be compatible with my dc33.
Thanks
I don’t believe any of those are compatible. You’d need to find an upright (all of these others are canisters) near that series to find any chance at compatibility.
Hi why would a dc37 power head – all of a sudden – not work? I cleaned it all out and everything is nice and loose and turn very easy but will not spin when connected
Parts do just die if they are old. That’s normal.
I have a Dyson dc33 vacuum cleaner and the handle needs to be replaced. Could I replace it with a handle for a dc32, dc37 or are they not compatible?
Unfortunately, I’m unsure on that one.
Hi Derek, not sure if you can help me or not but here goes. Derek, i have The Dyson DC78 Turbinehead Animal Vacuum and my handle is broken. I tried to get it from Dyson but they are out of stock. I found this -Garbage fighter Replacement Parts for Dyson Vacuum Cleaner DC19 DC23 DC26 DC29 DC32 DC36 DC37 Wand Handle Assembly, Vacuum Accessories- on Amazon and it looks exactly mine but the DC78 isnt listed. Would you happen to know if it would work since i can’t get it from Dyson?
Thank you in advance,
Wm
It’s possible that would work…I am not 100% certain if the 78 is cross compatible with those models.
Hello
Does Dyson V8 absolute accessories fit to V11 slim detect absolute?
Thank You!
No, they will not.
Have an old dc59 that works fine with the head attached without the stick and the brush turns but when the stick is attached the brush won’t turn. do I need to buy a new stick?
Yes, sounds like the connection between the two is faulty.
I just got a Dyson Ball Animal 3. The tangle free turbine tool for the uprights has changed, and the new one is sold out everywhere.
Do you know know what the difference between the old and new turbine tools is and if the old one would fit directly to the big tube of the animal ball 3? There are not enough pictures online to tell.
I don’t know the precise differences between those two, only that the older ones are generally not compatible with newer uprights.
What accessories will fit and work well for the dyson outsize ( the original outsize) I need replacement hard floor head and would like several other attachments such as cone head and flexible crevice tool. I am not sure if all V11 tools are appropriate
All of those available with any recent V-series vacuum (V11, V11 Outsize, Outsize, V10, or V15)
Hello, I’ve tried to find an answer to my question for a while but no luck so far. I hope you can help. I currently have 2 Dyson Vaccuums; the V7 and the Big Ball absolute 2, but unfortunately I can’t use the attachment of the older v7 on the newer big ball absolute. I’ve been searching for an adapter but I could only find adapters for v6 to v7 and from v7 to other brand vacuums but not the one I need. Maybe it doesn’t exist or maybe I just don get how this works 🙈. Just giving it a try here and hopefully you know of a solution.
Thank you!
I don’t know of any adapter that exists.
Hi – I have a dyson V8 and I bought the reach under tool and it doesn’t fit – is there an adaptor? thanks!
No
Does the Dyson hair screw tool work on the Dyson V-10 allergy?
Yes
Hi I need two parts for a dc 72 which are
Mini Motörhead part #966086-01
Motörhead part #966084-01.
Are there any part numbers that are compatible with the above.
Thanks.
This is a question for Dyson support. Sorry, I don’t know the answer.
I have a Dyson V-10 Allergy, does the power screw hair attachment of the V-10 animal work on my model. If so what is the part number and where can I purchase i?
Yes
Purchase here – https://www.amazon.com/BuyParts-Dyson-971426-01-Detect-Outsize/dp/B09BX7W2JR/ref=sr_1_4?tag=mc_1001-20&crid=23ZCE2G8540D7
I looked at Amazon and it said only works on V-15, please confirm screw hair tool works on cyclone V-10 Allergy. Thank you.
Amazon is wrong.
Not sure what else to say here.
I have a V10 and a V15, I’ve attached and it and it works.
Tools from V8, V10, V11, V12, and V15 are cross compatible. It’s the same connector.
Can I use a Dyson Torque Drive motor head on a Big Ball Animal canister vac model CY22 without causing any damage to the vac? Warranty is not an issue, past validity date.
You cannot. It is not compatible.
does a V8 Dyson charger work on the V12
It does not
I’m looking to buy a “stick with a beater bar” for my V7. However, I’m not sure where to find it. I’ve looked on Dyson.com and emailed them but I never get a response.
I don’t believe you can just buy the “stick”, you need to build the entire cleaning head.
You can buy it here – https://www.amazon.com/s?k=dyson+v7+cleaner+head&crid=15OV3M59L4NFV&geniuslink=true&sprefix=dyson+v7+cleaner+hea%2Caps%2C149&tag=mc_1001-20&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
Hi I need a new wall mount for a V6. There are many advertised that say they fit a V6 but have a different T code to mine which is T103239. Is it likely that a different code will fit mine if it says it’s for a V6 ie are all V6 wall mounts interchangeable.?
If it says “V6 Wall Mount” then it will work. Don’t go by the T-code, they are all over the place based on the specific model variant.
Hello
I think I may have had a brainwave – could I put a v7 dust bucket on my v6a to make it compatible with other accessories?
thanks, Nicole
You cannot.
I have Dyson V8 Animal stick vacuum and since it original charger didn’t serm to work anymore (the new battery didn’t get charged) I ordered a new charger thinking it’s at fault. It came and so I tried to plug it into vacuum. BUT IT DOESN’T FIT!! How come? I thought there wouldn’t be any differences. Is this an example of third party spare part???
You need a charger that’s compatible with the battery. Make sure that you have a V8 battery and a V8 charger.
Will the Dyson Omni take the floor mop
What floor mop?
I have a Dyson ball animal 3 upright and I also just received the grooming clippers for the Dyson V6 is there an attachment so I can use the electric clippers? Hope you can help!
Thank you
There is not.
Is there a floor dock compatible with digital slim?
Is it okay to buy a v11 floor dock?
Not that I am aware of.
V11 Floor dock is not compatible with the slim.
is the V6 vaccum head compatible with DC47
No
I have a v8 absolute but want to upgrade to a v10 for more run time and more debri capacity. If I purchase the v10 motor/body and debri cup, do I still need to buy a new battery charger, or will my v8 charger work on the v10 motor? Thanks so much for this article!
Yes you do.
V8 charger and battery are not compatible with the V10.
Hi Derek
Will a SV11 mini power brush attachment work on a V11 Dyson
Yes
can a V6 battery work on the V8?
No
Are there any accessories compatible to the CY22 or is there any adapter to connect either V6, V7 or V8 accessories to a CY22?
They are not. I don’t know of any adapter.
Do you know whether a Musclehead will work on a cordless (V8 I think)? I am looking for a head that is more gentle on pure wool carpets. I find the rotor heads (even the fluffy head) are all too aggressive.
Thanks
Carrie
It will not work. It is not compatible.
wondering if DC 23 hose and assembly will fit my DC21 or if there are any other options 🤔
I believe the hose is compatible, yes.
According to your pictures I have a V7/V8 Charger but I have light gray buttons for attachments like the V6?? Its a DC59
DC59 uses V6 style attachments.
Hi Derek.
The head on my Dyson Animal Light Ball Animal (VY3-UK-KJA7638A) broke recently and as Dyson didn’t have a date for the part to come in (and it was still in warranty) they replaced the whole machine last week with a newer Animal Ball model (U1N-UK-RNB2173A). A couple of years ago I purchased a ‘Home Kit’ of Dyson accessories which don’t fit with the new model. Dyson basically told me to source it myself and I am aware eSpares and Partmaster offer adapters (Part no: 2812885PM on the latter’s site) but they are both vague in listing if the part works with my specific models. Like many other online sites, you can’t call them and they take days to answer emails. Your knowledge appears impressive. Would you happen to know if this adapter would work?
https://www.partmaster.co.uk/adaptor-circle/product.pl?pid=1352596&query=dyson+adapter
Many, many thanks.
I wish I had a better answer for you, but I too am unsure about that exact part compatibility.
Hi
I need a new motor for my DC65. Can i interchange the complete roller mechanism with a DC40 rather than trying to change the motor?
Thanks
T
I don’t believe they are compatible.
Hi Derek 🙂 Can you put an oversized head on a V11 ?

Hi, I have the wand and roller power head with the number 06-85153 on the bottom of the head, what is the model number of the unit this fits. It has a grey click attachment not red. Thank you
I don’t know. You’d need to contact Dyson support for that info.
Will a power brush head for a dc35 work on a dc23?
No
Hi,
I have a Dyson DC23 cannister model. I’m looking for a mini power head attachment ( sometimes referred to as a pet hair attachment).
Dyson was not much help and referred me to a universal model. Ebay has items with various similar numbers, but I’m not sure of which models they fit. Dyson could not even find the original number for the DC23.Will part number 915022-02 fit? or 915022-01, or915022-03?
Any help would be appreciated.
I have an old DC35 that’s still kicking, but the cleaner head brush gets clogged with cat hair. Most Dyson models now come with non-tangle heads. Will any of those heads be compatible with my DC35?
They are not compatible.
I bought a replacement main body for my v8 but it doesn’t fit. It’s like it’s too short to fit in the battery piece. Do you know why? Thank you
I don’t know. My guess would be that you have a V8 version that is not compatible with your replacement part.
Hi, I have a Dyson V7 Fluffy and a Dyson V8 Total Clean. The Fluffy heads are interchangesble and both spin on both machines, but the V8 carpet head brush spins on the V8 but does not spin on the V7. Is this right?
I’m not sure on that, I would have expected it to spin.
is the Dyson V6 bin/bin lid
interchangeable with the V8 absolute
It is not.
Hi can I use v 7 attachment with DC08 vacuum?
Cheers
You cannot
I was wanting to know if I could use the Dyson Omni Glide double fluffy cleaner head on my Dyson v11 torque drive plus
You cannot. It will not fit.

Hello,
I have a V6 absolute, with a non motorised head.
Can I buy the motorhead attachment? Will that work on it?
Thanks
I have never heard of a V6 Absolute without a Motor head. If you do actually have a V6 Absolute then yes, a motorhead will work.
I have a dyson v8 cordless is there an adapter available to use attachments from the dyson Big Ball Cinetic Animal?
No. They are not compatible.
Our Ball Canister has three heads which produce greatly reduced suction i.e. hard floor head, large carpet head and stair carpet head.
Are the replacement heads to correct these faulty designs?
Not that I am aware of
Is there a generic or a dyson power head a single for a DC 32 .

Regards

It is not compatible.

Hi! I have a V7 Trigger handheld. Can I buy and use a stick extension to use with the mini motorized attachment?
Also, can I buy and use a bigger floor attachment for use with the trigger and an extension?
Yes and Yes
The trigger on my Dyson V10 stopped working. I cannot replace it because the inside circuit board is covered in silicone. Is it possible to replace the V10 engine with a V11 engine. I am referring to the entire motor compartment including trigger, battery location etc. Will the canister from a V10 fit the V11 housing? Will the battery from a V10 work with a V11 motor assembly? I know i would need new filters but I would ike to know if I can upgrade the vacuum in this way. Thanks!
It is not possible.
They are different sizes.
Hi there.
Are there any chances to adapt another motorized brush to a DC32 vacuum cleaner?
Not that I am aware of.

They are not
Hi Derek,
Which standing doc to use for v7 advanced?
I’m looking to order from Dyson online.
Thank you
I am not aware that Dyson sells a standing dock for the V7. You’d probably have to go 3rd party to get one.

I have a DC 19 upright Dyson. When I entered my serial number on the website, it shows DC 18. I can’t seem to find an accessory kit for either. What other model accessories will work?

Hello! I have an Animal V8+ and want a head to clean my delicate Moroccan rugs that are quite large- one with very short hair and another with longer. I have read that Dyson recommends the Flat head tool. Do you? Is this tool compatible with my vacuum. Thank you so much! It’s hard to find a clear answer on this!
Yes, any flat / straight suction attachment will work. I believe your V8+ should have included a tool like that.
Really you just want a tool that doesn’t use a brushroll. Straight suction only.
Can you use a dison7 wand and Power head on a dison 10. Dison 10 motor on powered head roller making noise. What to do.Asking the 7 compactable to the power head on the 10 .Another question the Dison 10 wand that goes into vacume cleaner in the middle of the vacume is getting loose. Any thoughts

can I use v8 accessories on a dc40
You cannot
Hey there, I’ve searched far and wide for a direct answer to this with no success and hopefully I’ve finally come to the right place.
I found a perfect accessory for my pet hair cleaning needs and then found this quick release version of it:
Dyson Quick Release Tangle Free Turbine Tool – DC77 and UP17 models
It visually looks like it has the same connector as the V7-11 but looks can be deceiving and I can go the adapter route if necessary.
Here’s a link to the ebay listing for the item in question:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/165883012719
Cheers and thanks in advance!
This is for the upright models. It won’t work on the V-series. I don’t know of any adapter the works for this.

Hello, Can i power V15 anti tangle comb with V8 vacuum. The comb mechanism is clicking right, but the motor is not spinning. Thanks

Hi I have a dyson dc08 and I need a hose pipe. Which other hosepipe is competible for my vacuum cleaner
I have a reconditioned SV11 which I bought from Dyson. The brush head is worn (the brush head holder appears genuine with logo and QR code sticker) and I ordered a genuine replacement part from eBay (part no. 967157-01). On second look I realised that my part has 3 prongs and the part I ordered says it is 4 prongs and not suitable for the 3 prong version.
I got in touch with Dyson who said they don’t supply a 3 prong version but supply the part no 967157-01 as above which will fit my SV11 (they had the serial no. too of my machine)
What are you thoughts on this please as don’t want to try the parts in my machine if it definitely won’t fit. Many thanks
I’m not totally sure here. It sounds like what you bought from eBay is a 3rd party part. If you’re worried about incompatibility I wouldn’t buy anything except parts directly from Dyson.
hi, do you know if you can use a v10 stickwand with the v11 outsize vaccum? Thanks!
Yes, you can.
i have a light ball multifloor which tangle free turbine tool fits this? the one with or without the red button ?
There are numerous tangle free turbine tool. You’ll need to confirm your exact multi floor model to determine compatibility.

Morning! can I charge a dyson v6 slim battery on a dysonv15 detect charger? I’ve recently bought a new v6 battery and it doesn’t appear to be charging!
You cannot. You need a V6 charger.
Hi Derek
What trigger ( the red button) would be compatible with a Dyson D72 Animal??
You’d need one for the V7 specifically.

No

I have bought Reach-under tool. I have Small Ball Allergy Upright. Dyson say that it works with all the model DC19 and upwards except for cordless and DC24. I am not sure how to attach the Reach-under tool to DYSON – Small Ball Allergy Upright Bagless Vacuum Cleaner. Can you please help?
It attaches to the wand. If it’s not easily attaching then that means you have an incompatible reach under tool.
have a secondhand animal dc50 but accessories don’t clip into place and fall off in use. on the end of the wand there is no clip mechanism am I missing a part or is there an adaptor available?

If I could use V11 heads on V12 cleaner?

It does not
i have a dyson ball animal 2 total clean and need a compatible power cleaner head. any suggestions?
I don’t think there is much cross compatibility. You’d just need to find a Dyson Animal 2 (doesn’t have to be Total Clean…any Animal 2 works).
Hi Derek , thanks for the information.
I have a dyson outsize , I was wondering If I could use a smaller head like v11 torque drive maybe?
Do you think it could put pressure on the motor?
Yes, you can use a V11 Torque Drive (or V10 / V15 head) on the Outsize without issue.
I need a new roller brush for my Dyson SV12. I can not seem to find a replacement . Would the V11 roller brush replacement work on the SV 12.
Yes, V11 will work for SV12.
Are the dust bin of V11 and V15 interchangable? thanks
They are not.

Yes
Hi
I’ve brought 2 replacement brush rollers for what I believe is a v8 animal ( I brought directly from Dyson) the first a 3rd party & so thought it just wrong as different diameter to mine. I have now brought an original part ( so the box claims 967485-01)
Again diameter is wrong.
Mine is approximately 45-46mm & the ones sent have been approximately 50mm. Please could you advise me as don’t know what to do next?
It’s possible you have a V6 or a V12 Slim.
Given that you’re using metric I assume you’re outside the US. Unfortunately, my knowledge of Dyson’s larger international model range is more limited…so it’s possible it’s something else.
I have a V 10 vacuum in moving house I lost the soft head wot I want to know is if I buy a soft roller only can I remove the hard roller and replace it with soft roller
Thanks
You cannot simply place a soft roller into the hard roller enclosure.
You can buy a replacement soft roller head here – https://www.amazon.com/Dyson-Soft-Roller-Cleaner-Models/dp/B082L43DL5?tag=mc_1001-20
I have a dyson animal2 UP20 TJ7-US-JHD0105A that is missing the powerhead.
The powerhead from my dyson ball multifloor UP13 MG9-US-JBA8600A seems to be compatible. do you know what other models are compatible?
I don’t believe other models are compatible.
I have just purchased a replacement head for v6 vacuum dyson but now discovered my model is V 6 Absolute. The head will not fit . Is there a specific different head fitting for the Absolute model.
Yours in anticipation.
Margaret Madden
That’s strange…perhaps you have some type of sub-variant of the V6. Any V6 head should work for Absolute or other standard variants.
Do you have an image of the model you have?
The V6 has two types sv03 and sv05(Absolute) the powered attachments are NOT compatible. The sv number is behind the bin on silver label
Have a Dyson D59 bought in 2014. Serial number GT9-US-FFA0842A. Replacing brushes and do we need 3prong or 4 prong?

But just because it’s a 3 prong doesn’t mean it’s compatible.
WILL THE V8 A/C CHARGER WORK WITH A V10?
It will not
Which Dyson DC motor heads are compatible with DC24
There doesn’t appear to be any compatible parts for it that are still widely available.
I am thinking about downgrading from a dyson v10 to a dyson v8 so I can buy a dewalt battery adapter, will I notice the downgrade? Will my v10 power head still work on the v8? Or would I be better off to buy a couple replacement batteries for my v10? Thanks!
Yes, you will notice the downgrade.
V10 head will work on the V8 though.
I’d just buy replacement batteries for the V10.
I have a Dyson DC03 with a broken wand handle. Are there any other models from which the wand handle would fit?
None that I am aware of.
will the dc41 Dyson attachments fit on a dc49 Dyson
No
Have stripped down a dyson V8 motor-head and it is the connector which has broken wires my intention is to solder new pieces of low voltage replacement wire of the same specification but I cannot remember how these are routed as they were installed in 2 wire shaped grooves and then again routed around the connector itself
Unfortunately, that is not something I know about. Sorry David.
is the Dyson Outsize Absolute + Vacuum (Gold) compatible with the Dyson Pet grooming kit?
Yes
Good guide! What about the v12? Is it compatible? Thanks!
Is it compatible to what?
What an impressive site.
I’ve been searching for a few days for replacements for my Dyson and it is so confusing. I have a V7 Absolute (aka F6J UK), I’m looking for a replacement brush bar for the direct drive cleaner head and a replacement mini motorhead tool. And filters.
It has red click buttons, so not sure if this means it is compatible with other V7/8 etc accessories, as this model is rarely mentioned anywhere.
Any advice much appreciated.
You are correct. It’s compatible with V7 / V8 accessories and attachments.
Even the V10 would work on it.
Technically, V11 and V15 also work…though due to the power consumption of those models I wouldn’t recommend it. Go with V7, V8, or V10 attachments.
Hi
just out of interest does any other cyclone motor fit a dc54 cylinder.
Thanks
None that I’m aware of.
Derek, I want to connect a 1 1/4 shop vac hose to my older DC40 Ball-type Dyson. What sort of aftermarket adapter should I look for? There seem to be many, but it’s hard to determine if they’ll click into the end of the wand or hose or not.
Unfortunately, I don’t know much of anything about those types of adapters. In theory, they exist, but I’ve never gone looking for them.
I have a DC24, the motor head died, I was wondering if there are any upright vacuum motor heads that are compatible with the DC24, thanks
For sure the DC24 is compatible if you can find it…but that’s the only one I could with 100% certainty.
How can I remove the two electrical pin connectors from the clickable connector on a Dyson V8 motorised soft brush head?
That’s not something I know how to do or would recommend. I expect you’d void your warranty by doing so…and it’s also possible dangerous.
Derek – Have you tested 3rd party soft ‘fluffy’ roller attachments with V10 model? Any you recommend that delivers high performance?
Unfortunately, I have not. Sorry 🙁
Derek – Which soft roller attachment will be both compatible and provide ‘high performance’ with our Dyson V10 Animal?
I would just get the 1st party Dyson version.

Can I put the new animal 3 head on my Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal Allergy vacuum? Will it attach?
I don’t believe it’s compatible.
Hi Derek
I have a Dyson V6 cordless, would any off the anti hair wrap roller brushes fit my machine?
Thanks
I don’t believe there are any that are compatible.
Hi there I have a dyson v10 cyclone, the battery life is going fast. I have seen battery adapters that look great. I have newer Dewalt cordless tools with a number of batteries, not sure what adapter to choose.Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Steve
Unfortunately, that’s an area I really don’t know anything about. I wasn’t aware they made battery adapters and I have never tested any.
Sorry, Steve.
I have a Dyson V7 but have misplaced the battery charger pack. Do any other dyson chargers fit this model? Or is there a generic charger that would fit as very expensive to replace with the Dyson charger
Here are a bunch of options that will work – https://www.amazon.com/s?k=dyson+v7+charger&crid=2HUWSEYTJ38JM&sprefix=dyson+v7+charg%2Caps%2C154&tag=mc_1001-20&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
Hello!! I have Dyson cinetic big ball vacuum (CY23 index) and looking for mop head for this. What the model number of this head and how can I find it on Amazon for example?
Look for the exact model number of your vacuum, should be somewhere on the vacuum itself. Then look for accessories for that attachment, as opposed to trying to find an exact model number for the cleaner head. I don’t know what the individual model number of attachments are.
Am I able to put a battery from a V10 cyclone in my v11 animal?
No
Hi Derek, is there any adaptor to connect the passive heads from the old DC08 yellow quick release to newer V11 red quick releases?
None that I am aware of
I have an older (10yrs) Dyson DC 43 animal stand up. Is there a list of compatable parts and or part numbers.
None that I am aware of.
Bought a pet groom tool and it comes with a 2 inch square plastic box with a funny red plastic thing. It looks like a nibs red licorice with a black tab at one end. What is it for and how do you use it.
Hrm…not sure, could you send a link to the exact thing you bought? I’m not sure I’ve seen that one.
I am wanting a wall mount compatible with cordless vac model SV03

I’m looking for a wand stick compatible with a Dyson DC19
Thank you for your prompt reply. I forgot to mention my Dyson is a V6 Motorhead cordless stick vac. The regular hardwood floor attachment for other V6 models doesn’t fit on this one. I’m wondering if there is one for the V6 Motorhead version. Thanks.
That is news to me. I thought the Motorhead and other versions were cross compatible with the V6.
If that’s the case then I don’t know of any solution. Sorry 🙁
I have a Dyson V6 fuchsia cordless stick vac and hardwood floors. Is there a brush assembly/brush for hardwood floors that is compatible for hardwood floors for this model?
There is

I have a DC35 animal cordless and am trying to figure out if any brushes out there would be compatible. Thanks
I believe Dyson V6 parts are cross compatible with it. Every model beyond that isn’t compatible.
I have a dyson canister vacuum and it is an awesome machine . I would like to see if I could change my roller on the beater bar for some that doesn’t allow human hair to tangle in it .
The only number I have been able to get is a serial number BR6- US-BGA0456B
I don’t think Dyson provides individual roller bars. You’d need some sort of custom part for that.
Will the soft roller head from the Dyson V8 fit on the V10 Animal?
Yes
I have the handheld portion of a stain v03 can I still get the wand and possibly some attachments?
I have not heard of the exact model…it looks like it may be a different labeled V6. If so, then yes, anything that works on the V6 will work on it.
Hey Derek, I have a Dyson Big Ball Multifloor 2 and looking for a replacement head, but don’t particularly want to pay the €80(ish) for the Dyson pneumatic musclehead floor tool – is there a simpler/cheaper option that would be compatible with that model
Unfortunately, nothing that I am aware of.
3rd party part support for the canisters / uprights is very limited, especially when it comes to cleaning heads.
Hello I’m trying to change the brush motor,and brush head on model
UP 19. Nothing comes up with matching model part numbers. They look the same or at least similar?
I’m not familiar with UP19, it looks a bit like a Dyson Multi Floor, but not quite. Not sure what parts would be compatible with it.
Are the filters on the SV17 V11 Animal compatible with the non animal one.
What do you mean by “non-animal one” There are several variants that are not the animal.
But in general…yes. If it has a HEPA filter then it is cross compatible across all variants within that model series.
can I recharge a V6 with a v11 wall plug in charger?
You cannot. They use different chargers.
I have a Dyson V11 Outsize. I have heard that is discontinued. I need a roller replacement or the entire head. No outsize head is available. Will the regular V11 head fit my red tube V11 outsize?
Regular V11 head will fit, as will the new Dyson Outsize.
Dyson V11 Outsize was basically rebranded as the Dyson Outsize. Same machine though.
I have just ordered a V8 absolute cordless to replace my V6 model. Will the electric cable for the V6 be ok to use with the V8. (My husband has hidden the V6 cable behind contiboard).
It will not work.
can a a Dyson V8

No, it’s not compatible
Hi, just wondering if the cyclone and reservoir unit from a DC19 will fit a Dc08?
thanks
I don’t believe it will fit.
Hi, I have dyson big ball multi floor canister, which attachment< soft roller brush or cleaner head will work on my canister?
thanks
There is no compatible soft roller brush.
You need a Dyson Turbine head. https://www.dyson.com/support/journey/spare-details.963544-05.214887-01
Will the Dyson high-torque cleaner head with anti-tangle comb attachment work with the Dyson v10
Yes
Which Dyson motorheads fit the DC23?
I don’t have a comprehensive list for that model.
DC23 head is the only one I could say with confidence.
Hi, Can we fit the Slim Fluffy Laser Head to the V10 Absolute? I got a reply from Dyson that it wouldnt be possible, but I would like to double check. Pls let me know. Thanks
In this case Dyson is correct. They are not compatible (button / hole configuration just doesn’t match up).
I just double checked with my Dysons here.
What’s the difference between the $29.99 and the $69.99 replacement wands for the V7?
In most cases, very little.
Cheaper versions might have a worse red button attachment that breaks sooner, but for $30 I’d risk it all day.
Wand is a non-moving part. Very little chance of issues compared to other attachments.
Any attachments available for omniglide? Or converter that is compatible? Want to be able to add a horsehair attchment I ordered from amazon. Thank you
Omniglide includes a few important attachments.
I don’t believe a converter yet exists.
Are the dustbins the same on a Dyson v10 and v11 animal?
No
What accessories from other models would fit the Dyson DC34 Animal?
Dyson V6 accessories would be the easiest to find.
See here – https://www.amazon.com/s?k=dyson+v6+attachments&crid=U9B6ZCZF5Z2W&sprefix=dyson+v6+attachment%2Caps%2C134&linkCode=ll2&tag=mc_1001-20&linkId=fd2d1a3ccc4b890a13ca1172ca61277f&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
does the ANIMAL V6 hose fit the DC31?
V6 Animal extension wand will fit the DC31.
I had a DC23 canister style Dyson for about 12 years and recently bought a V15 Detect Absolute. Is there an adaptor available so that I can use some of the old tools on the V15?
There is not.
I have a Dustin v7 fluffy , and find it very difficult to push on carpet , can I get a regular beater bar to interchange with it ?
Fluffy head is not designed for carpet. That’s why it’s hard to push on carpet
Yes, the regular beater bar can works on the fluffy version.
I have an older DC 23 would like to get an extension hose is there one that will fit
Dyson no longer provides replacement parts for the DC 23.
I notice that the large bin on both the V10 and the V11 measures out to be the same size. (11.3 c/m by 19.6cm) Are the bins interchangeable?
They are not
Hi Derek,
I have a Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum Cleaner main body with battery. Can I use the tube and accessories from other lower models? Thank you.
Regards,
Bobby
Yes, they are cross compatible on V11, V10, V8, and V7.
Hi there
I’ve 2 questions please:
Will a V6 slot into the top of the Dyson multi Slim Floor Dok, v11 (,possibly Part No. 969944-04)?
And will a DC35 charger power a V6?
Thanks.
V6 will not work on a Slim Floor Dok. It only fits V11.
I am unsure if DC35 charges a V6. Very few charges are cross compatible. If I had to guess, I’d say no.
Have a older Dyson model DC23. Need a new power head. Cannot find one on line anywhere. Are they available anywhere on Canada
It’s very hard to find parts for older machines. I don’t know of any good place where you can find a DC23.
Is there a generic chordless stick vacume that is compatible with any of the Dyson power heads? I own a Fluffy and my Dyson has so many issues with it that it is time to replace it. I can’t afford a new Dyson so I am wondering if there are any generic knock offs that can use the powered Fluffy head. The fluffy head is incredible and works better than anything in an all hardwood house. Do you know any off brand chordless vacumes that can use a Dyson Fluffy head? I have so many Dyson attachments I want to be able to use them with the new vacume cleaner. Ultimately I will buy another new Dyson but I need a second vacume for a detached den to have on hand and do not want to spend the money for a new Dyson. I know there are a lot of really good stick vacumes that are less than $150 but trying to find one that can use the Dyson Fluffy head or has a Fluffy head of its own. Any help would be great. I can’t seem to find any info on knock offs that can use the Dyson Power attachments. Thanks
There is nothing like that that I am aware of.
will a v10 pet head fit the dc25 model hose
No, it will not fit
Hi Derek,
We have mostly hardwood in the home but already have an older generation stick animal vacuum (not red button) and are looking for a whole home option and leaning towards the “Dyson Big Ball Multi-floor”.
While i know the V series and canister have different diameter attachments, Are you aware of any attachment converter which would allow for the V series soft roller heads to be attached to a dyson canister vacuum. Unfortunately I do not see that there are any soft foam brushes directly available for the canister series and as such we are wondering if there are any converters available or any recommended 3rd party attachments for this.
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
NK
There are no converting adapters that I am aware of.
Hello,
Is it at all possible ( any converters available) to to attach a fluffy hardwood type floor beater on a dyson canister big ball vacuum – or do you have any other recommendations.
We have almost all hardwood, but like the canister type vacuums and are looking to see if it can be connected (even if not typical).
Thank you in Advance,
N
As far as I am aware, it is not possible and there are no converters.
Hi I have a CY23 QUICK RELEASE HARD FLOOR ARTICULATING HEAD WILL IT FIT THE V15 VACUUM
It will not.
Hi
I’ve just purchased the V11 torque drive cordless vacuum and I would like to know if I could put a fluffy bar in the same head or would I have to get a whole new fluffy head attachment.
Regards Julie.
You need a whole new fluffy head attachment.
Hi Derek, I hope you can help, we are Dyson Lovers and have a variety of Dyson equipment. On the vacuum side the early corded DC1, the midsized corded one (very powerful) and three battery handhelds from early days to the latest one we have, a V7. All excellent tools, all working well for many years with no failures. So the preamble question I have we like the new V15 particularly beacause of the beater bar head between the brushes BUT another Dyson seems daft, and it is expensive, verses the new Shark similar device being released in about 2 weeks. The reason for the question is we have moved home and bought fairly deep pile carpet with soft thick underlay (very nice to walk on) in the whole house, the problem is all our above units on any power setting just dig straight into the pile and the normal push pull vacuuming action is impossible. Only a rear walking action whilst dragging any Dyson will work. Do you know, does the V15 beater bar head attachment work, when attached to a V7 and does it allow the push pull action? Ie would this solve our problem OR is there a similar head supplied with any on the range V7 to V11 please? It seems that a power reduction system (like supplied on the V15 & Shark is necessary to effect easy vacuuming? Any help and advice appreciated. Cheers John H
V15 cleaning head will fit on your V7, but I would not recommend it. V7 doesn’t have the power needed to drive that cleaning head. It might work the way you want it due to the V7’s lower suction power, but it’s not advised. It could hurt the V7 or V15 cleaning head or both.
As you noted, this is more an issue of variable suction than it is a problem with the cleaning head. The best way to reduce excessive suction issues is to get a Dyson with variable suction and a cleaning head that has the adjustable seal gates on the front of the cleaning head (which increases / decreases suction seal with the floor).
V15 has both variable suction at the motor level and the adjustable seal gates, so you shouldn’t have any issues with the V15.
But it’s a pricey machine, so the Shark could deliver similar performance for less money.
Hi Derek, do you know anything about V8 Absolute soft roller heads missing the rear brush bar? I bought mine exactly one month ago while on sale and haven’t noticed any issues with the soft roller head while using it until I went to clean it today – the manual says there should be a second, smaller rear brush bar but I only have the large main one. I tried scouring the internet for answers but only found one reddit post mentioning the same thing.
I’m wondering whether a replacement rear brush bar will even be compatible with my soft roller head, or if I need to replace the entire cleaner head. On the other hand, the V8 Absolute for sale on the dyson website doesn’t appear to come with the soft roller head anymore – instead it comes with the new “fluffy” head. I’m assuming this fluffy cleaner would still work with my V8A, since it’s still considered the same model, but I’m curious to hear your thoughts before I start replacing things!
Fluffy and Soft Roller head is the same thing. Dyson usually calls it Fluffy, but sometimes you’ll see it listed as Softer Roller.
Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about roller heads missing the rear brush bar.
I just looked at my V10 soft rolled head and it does have the rear brush bar. However, that bar does not spin or move. As such, I don’t think it’s super important. Most likely it’s just a design change that Dyson is making.
Hi, I have a V11 animal vacuum with screw in battery. The main body (engine) does not work and I have not been able to find a new (not refurbished) replacement. Are there any other bodies (e.g. V10, V8, etc) that would work with the all the V11 vacuum attachments, including the charging station?
V7, V8, V10, V11, and V15 will all work with the V11 attachments.
However, you need the charging station and charging plug that goes with each respective model. That is not cross compatible.
i have dyson and would a shark anti hair head will fitdyson
No
I have a Dyson V7 Animal Cordless Vacuum Cleaner but the main brush head looks like it’s 3 prongs and all I can see is replacement for 4 prongs ( never even knew there was 3 or 4 pronged version )
Everything works fine I just need a new brush roller as it’s worn the strips down
I don’t think you can buy just the roller.
But here’s the complete cleaner head – https://amzn.to/3BfcoF6
Hi , I have a DC54, is there an adapter to utilise the Motörhead’s that come with our old Dc21 animal ? Thanks
There is not.
I bought the V11+ A year ago and would find the new (hair) anti-tangle brush head that’s now with the V15 very useful. Can I purchase it anywhere? Thanks for great article 👍🏼
You can buy it here – https://moderncastle.com/go/dyson-v15-motorbar-cleaning-head
And thank you! 🙂
How does the new V8 tangle free motorhead compare with the basic V8 motorhead, in performance? Does either one pick up better? Are all V8 models the same in performance or have they been improved since first generation until now? Suggestion of which V8 is best performance to buy for 50/50 hardwood/rug household?
Unfortunately, I have not yet tested the new tangle free motorhead.
Can I use a Dyson V10 charger to charge a V8?
No
Hi Derek, thanks for the above site. I have both a 240V cinetic big ball and have just purchased a V11 stick. Both have a number of passive attachments. Can I purchase a conversion attachment to interchange them?
Thanks in advance.
I don’t know of any conversion attachment that exists between those models.
Thanks Derek.
You’re welcome!
The switch has broken on my dc31. I have seen a used motor/switch assembly for a dc35 for sale. Are they compatible?
Would appreciate your comment.
Thanks.
In theory they should be. Though I am not certain.
Thanks for the advice. I think I’ll risk it.
You’re welcome
Hello . I have got the dyson DC40 and the dyson v6.
I have just got the dyson mini turbo head but have not got the adaptors to attached it to the machines.could you please tell me what adaptors that I need.Thank you.
There are no adapters for those attachments / models. Sorry 🙁
Is there an adapter to fit a Dyson v7 accessory to an old Dyson DC39 canister vacuum?
Not that I am aware of.
Thank you. The complete absence of any compatibility between models and accessories would confirm my loss of interest in any new Dyson purchase. Bring back Hoover! They were reliable and lasted forever.
You’re welcome
Hi Derek,
Great place to find helpful Dyson information.
I wonder if you would know if the old DC-16 attachments will connect to V6 Trigger [DC-58]
I’m told no but that was from Dyson who have brand new models to sell.
Many Thanks
In this case, Dyson is correct. They will not connect and I am not aware of any adapter (3rd party or otherwise) that exist.
Thanks Derek
You’re welcome
Hi Derek,
You recently confirmed the DC16 handheld attachments were not compatible with V6 Trigger [DC-58] which I was advised by Dyson here in Australia. Since that time I have connected the DC16 originally supplied attachments combination tool and crevice tool successfully to the V6 Trigger [DC-58].
As well as those attachments a separately purchased tool kit of attachments PN. 12679-01-01 also fit as well as the separately purchased Flexi Crevice Tool PN. 08184-05-01. Only the DC16 specific motorhead will not connect with the V6 Trigger DC58.
Was there some confusion with regards to which attachments I meant?
My apologies for the mistake, Tracy. Looks like I was just wrong on this one.
I was under the impression that the connection between V6 and earlier cordless Dyson models was different.
Does the filter from the v6 fit in the v8?
No
I have a Dyson V11 Absolute which needs a replacement dirt bin.
Will a DC42 dirt bin fit?
No, it will not fit.
Hello. I am looking for the red quick release that locks the canister to the vacuum cleaner, but I have not seen on being sold. Can you tell me where I can get one. My Dyson is a DC 41 thank you.
https://amzn.to/3QXXN67 – is this what you’re looking for?
I have Dyson dc54 cinetic, apart from dc54 turbine head which turbine head can be used with dc 54? Is there any soft roller brush that can be used with dc54?
There is not.
Hi, I have a dyson DC29 and would like to purchase the Dyson DC39 DC39i DC47 Vacuum Cleaner Stair Tool Brush. The original one that came with the vacuum has gone missing. Would the item above be compatible.
Thank you.
No. Those are incompatible.
Hello! I have a Dyson DC65 that needs a new cleaner head. Can I use one from a different ball/animal upright vacuum or does it have to be specific to my model?
You need the specific DC65 model.
I’m a little confused.. I have a v12 absolute with the red button quick release.. is it compatible with any other quick release red button models? Thanks for a clear answer.
It is compatible with all other V-series quick release red buttons. Basically everything from V7 to V15 (excluding the Slim models. If you have a V12 slim it would only be compatible with other V-series slim models.
What other Dyson models have compatible heads with the Dyson Big ball 2 (CY28)? It’s difficult to find any second hand accessories that claim CY28 compatibility.
Thanks,
Huw
I don’t know of any that are cross compatible.
Great article!!! super informative! Quick question. i have the V7 Dyson stick and i want to replace the back filter that is grey. In other YouTube videos the cap just twists off. i can’t seem to get that to happen. Is this model not supposed to be replaced/cleaned? Here is my model # TY4-US-MAF5484A
If it’s not twisting off that means you V7 does not have a HEPA filter.
I have a DC17, I am needing the crevice and brush attachments. What series would be compatible? I cannot find any specific to DC17 except on eBay
Thank you
DC17 is incredibly old. I don’t know of anything that’s available.
Sorry if you have answered this already and I have missed it in the comments
I have a V11 which no longer works – if I upgrade to a V15 will the attachments work?
Thank you
Yes, they will work.
Hello Derek,
Do you have any idea how I can connect a pet groom tool part no 921000-02, that originally fits most of the DC models to my v10
Thanks
Unfortunately, I don’t believe there is any adapter for that.
Hi Derek,
Thanks for the great article. I have a question though…what is the attachment that is pictured on the bottom right of the first photo you posted? The one that looks like a pipe under the sink. It came in the box of the V12 but it’s not in the manual and can’t find info online. Thanks!
It’s the Dyson Up Top Adapter tool
Hi Derek, I have a v15 and want to buy a couple of spare filters. Can you tell me if they are same as the size as the v11 I had, and would they fit the v15.
Also is it ok to use an air compressor to clean the filter, they take a few days to dry when I wash it. Thank you.
They are not the same size. You’ll need the one specifically for the V15.
Air compressor should be fine, though Dyson specifically recommends cleaning it with water. So something to keep in mind.
Thanks for your help🙏🏻
You’re welcome!
I have Dyson DC35 that is a few years old but works well. I would like a wider head. The current head is 8.5 inches wide. Are there wider heads I can get that will work? My model has the grey buttons to change heads. Thanks.
There are no wider headers that are compatible for that model.
I purchased the Dyson v10 allergy vs Absolute because it was deeply discounted but want to soft roller head since I have majority hardwood floors.
Can I purchase a soft roller to replace the Allergy or purchase an entire head replacement? Appreciate your thoughts!
You can buy it here – https://amzn.to/3ogyvng
What other models of dyson wands can I use with my dc56? Only dc57? Thanks…
That’s a very old model. I don’t know of any other models on the market now that could use that.
Hi there, I have a dc20 stowaway animal and I’m struggling to find nozzles and attachments for it. I ordered a set from Amazon which were stayed as comparable with a dc20 but they didn’t fit. Do you know if it’s comparable with any other model numbers do I can try and order accessories for those which might fit? Many thanks
That’s a pretty old / niche model. I don’t know of anything available today that is compatible.
I have a dc 37. The part I ordered is coming from England. It is the power head as mine has stopped and not repairable. Will take 2 weeks or so to get it. Dyson is originally from England. I went through Amazon. Locally in Vancouver/canada I cant find anyone who carries what is require for my dyson
Hi Derek
I have a 6 amp charger for a Dyson V6. Can this charge a V8 battery
Thanks
Keith
It cannot.
Hello. I have a Dyson stick vacuum model C35. I really need the soft sponge head but I don’t know if my vacuum will support it. If it doesn’t , is there another brushless cleaning head that I can use?
Cheers Susan
It’s too old I am afraid. I don’t think there is any soft fluffy head that is compatible.
Hi! can I use a Dyson Torque motorhead (V11) on an Dyson Outsize cordless (also V11)?
Thanks!
Yes, you can.
Will tangle free turbine tool it dc59 …regards
Not sure what you’re asking here. Could you please rephrase?
Thank you for the great article! You may have said it and I missed it but i have dyson dc17. But no accessories for it I can find tools for that model. Are tools for dc14 or others compatible?
Yes, I believe those are compatible.
Will the brush roller from a DC18 or DC23 fit in a DC66?
No
I have bought a Dyson V12 stick vacuum and am looking for more none powered accessories ( soft brush, mattress tool, extension hose).
Will any of the none Dyson made accessories fit?
Only slim v-series attachments will work. However, there just aren’t very many of them.
Hello! Thanks for the article. Is it possible to convert the V6 trigger origin handheld to a stick vacuum? It’s a DC58. Thanks!
Yes, you just need to buy a motorhead – https://amzn.to/3NKje8N
And a wand – https://amzn.to/3yFDwMn
Thanks for this article. We have a Dyson v7 Trigger – the short stem handheld version. Could we add a v7 Animal long wand to it? It connects with red buttons.
Yes, that is compatible.
Will DC 40 motor head work on animal 2?
It will attach, however, I don’t recommend using it. I’m not 100% certain of the power difference between the Animal 2 and DC40 motorhead. My fear is that it would damage either the vacuum or motorohead or both.
Hi Is Dyson Hair screw tool compatible with V11 model?
Yes, it is compatible.
First off, thank you for such a thorough and helpful guide, Derek!
I have a question about the new Omni-Glide+. While it’s great for its original intent — cleaning hard floors, many articles claim it can take on carpets, too… which I found not to be true. It’ll pick up some surface dust, but my V7’s bin fills up after I go over a rug I just vacuumed with the Omni-Glide.
Keeping both isn’t ideal, so I’m looking for a carpet attachment for the Omni. I’m pretty sure none of the ones listed above will fit… Help!
You’re very welcome!
Unfortunately, you are correct, none of the multi-surface cleaning heads fit the Omni-glide. The Omni-glide has a vary narrow extension connection, such that there is nothing else compatible with it in Dyson’s line up (even the slim V-series versions are too big).
I am afraid there isn’t a good option.
Is the bucket sealing ring the same for the V10, V11, and V12?
Not sure what you mean by bucket sealing right. Could you send a link or other example?
Can I buy a crevice tool with an extendable reach for the Dyson V15 detect model.
Yep, right here – https://amzn.to/3Icawiw
Are there any Mini Micro Tool Attachment Pieces Set that is compatible to Dyson DC25? I want to use it for narrow areas inside other dusty devices and unreachable areas inside the house. I bought one set from Amazon but it is not compatible! Any ideas?
None that I am aware of.
why do I have so much play between the connection of the bin and telescope? It wobbles
Is it new or old?
Hi Derek,
Great article, although it would have been great if you had also included V15 accessories.
Do you know if the V15 Laser Slim Fluffy head is compatible with the V10?
It is compatible, yes.
V15 came out after we did this attachment guide, but you make a good point. I’ll try to update that at some point.
I have a Dyson V6.
Am looking for another head style to use on tile floors that I currently have. From pictures I am not able to see the underside of the floor heads. I’m wondering if there is another style that can be used on tiles as well as carpet.
This is the only V6 multi-surface cleaning head available – https://amzn.to/3xVgpvx
It would work on tile and carpet.
Is there a way to convert a v7 handheld to a stick vacuum?
If so what model or parts would be best?
Yes.
Simply buy this https://amzn.to/3QPrfMo
And this https://amzn.to/3yn5M6n
I have v6 Slim.. and thinking of buying V10 .. are they the same batteries? cuz I just bought new ones..
They are not the same.
I have 8 accessories (one motorized) for my older DC25 Animal Ball upright vacuum cleaner. EVERYTHING works perfectly (including the motorized one) BUT the power head will not lay flat on the floor. Dyson says I have to buy a new machine. What to do with the older one — that works perfectly EXCEPT for on carpet as I have the flat floor attachment for wood and tile. I am wondering if my 8 accessories can be used on a new Upright ball machine or will they not fit.
Unfortunately, I don’t believe the DC25 attachments are compatible with Dyson’s newer upright vacuums. Sorry
Hello,
Do you know if the Dyson Ball Animal 1 parts will work on the Dyson Ball Animal 2? I foolishly mixed them up when I replaced my 1st vacuum after 9 years of heavy use. The 1 came with a bigger assortment of accessories.
Thank you in advance.
Pam
Yes, they should work.
What hardwood floor cleaning attachment would be compatible with a dyson ball multi floor canister vacuum?
I don’t believe there is any dedicated hardwood floor cleaning attachment for the Multi Floor canister.
However, the multi-surface cleaning head that comes with the Multi Floor canister will work fine on hardwoods.
I also have a problem with the handle joint on my cinetic squeaking horribly when it flexes. Any solutions? Only 2 years old.
Unfortunately, replacement is the only solution.
Hello, I have a cinetic big ball origin and the head on it is hopeless for carpet. I am considering getting a cordless V8 or similar, will the head on this fit my cinetic to improve the pick up of hair?
It will not fit. Big Ball and V-series cleaning heads are not cross compatible with each other.
I have a new V11 Pro Cordless Stick Vacuum. I would like to use the Dyson Tangle Free Turbine Upholstery Tool. What adapter or converter do I need? Some people said that Dyson makes one for $37, but when I called Dyson they said that it doesn’t exists. Then I saw one on Amazon for $8, but not sure if that one would work.
Any suggestions?
I don’t think Dyson makes one, but there may be a 3rd party one like you saw on Amazon. Trying that is your best bet.
Is there an adapter so I can use my stair tool from my dc14 on my dyson ball Cleaner? Thank you. Marilyn
Not that I am aware of.
I have a Dyson Ball Animal 2 upright vacuum But the hose is very tight to move it around when you are using wand. I saw dyson canister vacuum has flexible hose , My question is does the canister hose can be fitted to my dyson ball animal 2 through anyway like an adapter or so ? any third party adapters ? Please let me know. Thank you.
Not that I am aware of. Those parts only go with their respective machines.
I have just purchased a set of accessories from eBay advertised as being for Dyson small ball. When I received them they were all too small in diameter. Could they be for a different small ball variant or likely a completely different machine? Thanks.
Honestly, it’s just not enough information for me to even say.
Could be a different small ball, could be a different Dyson, could just be a scam, could be another vacuum. Ebay is a bit of the wild west.
Would a v10 filter fit in a v7?
No
Hello .
Would the hair screw attachment work on my v10 animal ?
Yes
I have a Dyson barrell (Cinetic Bigball origin) vacuum and want to use a soft roller brush cleaning head.
Which sort is compatible? Do you sell them
I don’t know of any that are compatible, sorry 🙁
Will v11 and v15 accessories the cleaning heads be compatible with v12 slim? Thank you
They will not be.
Hi Derek, I have a Dyson DC23 (very old…but still going) and a Dyson DC45 and most of the tools are interchangeable. However I am looking for a new good hard floor tool for my timber floors. Would the soft roller brush head fit? Both of my Dysons have a grey button!
Thank you
Del
I don’t know of any soft roller brush that fits the older grey style button connection.
Hi Derek,
I have a Dyson V7 Trigger Pro vacuum with Mini Motorhead. Is a V series wand and Motorhead Part no. 968266-04 compatible with the vacuum I currently have?
Yes, it is compatible.
Hi,
Is there a low reach adapter compatible with the dyson v12 detect slim absolute? I bought the adapter compatible with the v11 but it wont the v12.
Not that I am aware of
Do the v11 and v10 use the same filter?
No
Hello
I have the dyson v7 animal extra with the 3prong roller. It needs replaced but I find they are no longer made, only 4 prong rollers.
Other than buying a new machine what are my options?
Thank You
Ken
[email protected]
I am afraid you really don’t have many options.
If you cannot find a 3 prong roller somewhere you will simply need a new machine. Sorry I don’t have better news.
Hi there just a quick question can you use different cyclones for all Dyson big ball vacuums, I have the Dyson big ball multi floor and need a new cyclone but it is out of stock.
Generally, no. You need the specific one that goes with that model.
Please advise what I can do . I have a Dyson DC05, which works perfectly . However the telescopic wand is stuck fully extended . Is there a replacement ?
I don’t believe so.
I have an older model dyson dc23 canister style vacuum. Will any of the soft roller heads fit with this model?
I don’t believe so.
Hi there I have a dyson v8 motohead was wondering if the attachments from this,will it fit the dyson canister vacuum.
They will not.
Hey Derek and Fellow Dyson Devotees,
I’ve wanted to get the Outsize for a while now, however, it’s always out of stock. (Granted I exclusively look on Dyson’s website, as it’s my preference to order from.)
The main reason is for wanting the Outsize is the bigger XL (XL Cleaner Head) which comes standard. The v15 Detect would be perfectly sufficient for my home, aside from some larger rugs and carpeted areas, where the XL would be super handy to have.
To summarize: Would the V15 Detect body be compatible with Outsize’s XL Cleaner Head?
My thoughts: yes, they’re compatible. This conclusion is based on the fact that the Outsize Absolute includes the Fluffy Laser Cleaner Head, which is standard with the v15 Detect.
Any input is appreciated!
Yep, it’s compatible!
Does a DC19 handle fit the DC08 ?
I don’t believe so
Hi there, thanks for all this information. Can you tell me if the V8 charger is the same as the V10/V11? I couldn’t see it mentioned above. Many thanks
It is not compatible.
Is the v6 absolute wand compatible with the v6 animal
Yes, it is
Hello, does dyson v8 slim fluffy cleaner head/accesories compatible with dyson digital slim or V12 slim? Since all these are under slim series. Thanks
As long as it’s the slim version, then yes. Non slim versions won’t work.
I have Dyson Vacuum aaccessories(total clean kit) including soft dusting brush,flexible crevice tool ,combination tool for series DC 21,23,26,29,36,37,42, and 43 for upright vac.QUESTION: Will these tools fit a V11 upright?
There is no vacuum called the V11 upright. I assume you’re talking about the V11 cordless, and the answer is no, they will not fit.
Hello,
Will the V11 Outsize with the larger high torque cleaner head work with v15 model.
Thanks
Yes
Hi – will Dyson SV12 vacuum bin Model number 969509-01, fit on a v11 body? Looks to be same design but says “big bin”. Thanks
