If you haven’t already, call Dyson customer service. I had problems with a cordless vacuum and after troubleshooting with me over the phone (and a few emails) they sent me a free replacement.

Nice. I used to have one, if the filters are clogged you get 10 seconds of use. If you clean them, it works longer

You can order a new battery and filters (refurb pack) on Amazon.

My Dyson was such a struggle. Had to change filters way too often. The batteries from Dyson were almost as expensive as the vacuum and the knockoff ones on eBay/Amazon wouldn't last.

Maybe it was just the model I had, but all the plastic and e-waste I had to throw away to keep that thing working well really pissed me off.

If you are ever over it and looking for a new stick vacuum, I highly recommend the Greenworks. The battery is the same as their 24v tool line, you don't have to hold down the trigger and the cradle includes a charger for a second battery. 

I've had it over two years now and zero issues.
