Dyson High Torque Brush Head for Dyson V11 Models (for V11 Models) 970100-05

We have both a Dyson V8 and V10 for different locations. Each has its advantages. All the attachments we have used are completely interchangeable. One of the motor heads broke and although it had probably been used back and forth between the two vacuums I was able to determine it was the older V8's unit. So it had a reasonably long life span. I tried to fix it but Dyson makes this very difficult and as most of you know, replacements parts are absurdly expensive. I called Dyson and was told the replacement parts are out of stock and they did not know when (or if) they would be available again. The Dyson sales person offered no alternative. This did not give me a lot of confidence about buying Dyson products in the future. However, Amazon has plenty of these replacement parts available and it became a matter of determining which one to get. (Dyson makes your head spin with many different part numbers for what seems like the same part and never specifies any distinction.) After spending quite a bit of time researching online I decided the "high torque" motorhead from the V11 would fit my vacuums and perhaps be an upgrade. Since the price was pretty much the same as the older parts it seemed like a no-brainer, particularly with Amazon's great return policy. My only concern was reading reviews saying people received small motorheads, something I most certainly did not want. My package arrived the next day in a box labeled as a Dyson original part #: 970100-05. Inside was exactly the part I hoped for, the same width as the original V10 (and V8) motorhead. It was not labeled "high torque" as some photos show but had the 3-position switch on the front that controls airflow. When looking at the label with the tiny print on the back I found what I believe to be the most important difference between the regular and high torque model. On my V10 (and V8) cleaner heads the label notes the voltage as 16.2 VDC and the wattage as 50. (There is no English head so I'm providing an educated guess on what the numbers means.) On the new model being reviewed here the volt and watt numbers are 17.2 and 100, respectively. So the new head has double the wattage. The new unit has a different color roller brush (same dimensions) and also a rubberized cover on the back rather than the more open area when dirt and debris gets stuck. To my ears the new one seems to run very slightly quieter and the switch intended for different surfaces makes a significant difference in how the motorhead operates depending on whether it's cleaning hard floors, carpets, etc. Overall I am very happy with this purchase in every area except for Dyson's excessive pricing. Still, I paid about $25 less on Amazon than Dyson charges directly and received my item far more quickly.

Our original brush head started making a loud vibrating noise so we opted for a Dyson replacement. It arrived in perfect condition and works exactly like the original head when it was new.

I would have purchased a knock-off head, but the gentleman who performed the work of a hero and thoroughly explained why this was the better option led us to purchase this one instead for our V8. We are NOT disappointed! We had a knock-off motorhead previously, and it turned our Dyson into a glorified sweeper. I'm so happy to say that we do not have to replace our 4-year-old V8 just yet, and with a new battery, it's running as it should. I learned an important lesson re: value with this one. BUY IT. DO IT. And kick it up a bit by matching a new battery to the voltage of the newer motorhead if you're operating a V8.

Original replacement for a pricey vacuum. They are made with clearly the least amount of materials possible. Attempting to dismantle in order to clean, two of the four original's plastic screw holes broke with gentle handling!

the head fits and works great. but there is an issue with this model of head. the wheels break because they are plastic with a screw attaching them to the head. they are threaded into plastic so the screw breaks off or breaks the plastic where the wheels attach. to replace the piece, you have to take the entire head apart. i just bought this in july and it already broke. i would not recommend this model of dyson. i have used my v7 for years and never had any issues except for buying a new head after 4 years of use.

Price is high but not much choice. I tried a 3rd party one and it just wasn't the same. It was smaller and didn't have the same torque. This works just like the original.

I have the dyson V11 Outsize & although this head is not as big as my original head it fits & works just as good. My order came fast & well packaged. It was definitely worth the risk of buying from a 3rd party vendor. Dyson has not had head replacement parts for years now for my V11 & I much rather spend $100 on this head then retire my Vacuum. This just put my V11 Outsize back in commission & I could be happier. Don't risk on Ebay when this is cheaper & free return if your not completely satisfied. Just know it is not the same size as the Outsize head. Which I knew when I bought it. Thanks to the supplier. Hope my review helps others take the leap.

Perfect! OEM and brand new, works wonderfully.

Bra pris, snabb leverans.

Fits as it should and works beautifully.

acheté en remplacement d'une ancienne brosse qui avait fait son temps ... produit de le marque cher certes mais efficace

Très très bonne brosse aspire avec puissance et de très bonne qualité

Very disappointed with this purchase, the item I received is faulty, the torque motor-head does not spin. It cost me another $58.00 to return the item via post. Not sure why would I/the buyer have to pay for the return postage when a faulty item provided. The local Dyson service Center also advised that there is no warranty or service available for any Dyson item or parts purchase through Amazon. Not recommend to buy this sorts of item from overseas suppliers.
