Good points:: Good suction power; long lead, adequate tools
Bad points:: By no means light. Flimsy design, for instance in parking support for hose.; weak lead recoil spring.Controls not foot-operated, so difficult for those who can't bend easily.

Good points:: none
Bad points:: Constantly unblocking which is time wasting. Does not cope with dog hair. The old model we had was much better. Does not stand up to manufactures claims. Would have bought something else if we had known.

Chris, Pembrokeshire Occasional user

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Very impressed with this vacuum cleaner, which is much more powerful than my old one. It has lots of features, is easy to use, and if you use it on full power it is hard to move on the carpet, the suction is so good! It is pretty easy to empty & clean, and seems to pick up a lot more than my old one.
Bad points:: As with many new cleaners, there is nowhere to store the attachments, so they are not too hand when needed. Apart from this minor point I would not fault it.

Product Features

Shape	Cylinder
Type of dust container	Bagless
Bagless vacuum cleaners help you save money on replacement bags but they generally need to be emptied more often and they can be messy to empty. Also be aware that emptying dust canisters without bags can be a hazard for people with dust allergies.
Type of brush	Turbine

Type of hose	Extendable metallic
Vacuum cleaner hoses are either metallic or plastic and are either a fixed length or extendable.
Dust capacity (Litres)	2.5
Amount of dust the machine will take until you need to empty it.
HEPA filter	Yes
HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air and HEPA filters are also known as S-class filters. These reduce the allergy-causing particulates that escape from the vacuum cleaner so are worth getting if you suffer from allergies to things like dust or pet fur.
Noise level (Decibels)	72
Measures how loud the machine is. For quieter machines, look for models with a noise level under 60 decibles.
Variable power	Yes
Different levels of power are handy to have so that you can use less suction on more delicate surfaces and vice versa.
Weight (kg)	6.7

Cable rewind	Yes
Automatically rewinds the cable at the push of a button so that you don’t have to spend ages winding it back up.
Fragrance diffusor	No
Gets rid of nasty odours. Especially useful if you have pets.
Type of bagless filter	Cyclonic Filter

Controls in handle	No
Power (W)	1800
