Vax UCCEGEV1 Air Stretch Advance Upright Vacuum Cleaner, 1.5 Liters, Silver/Lime Green [Energy Class A]

VAX U85-AS-Pe Air Stretch Pet Multi-Function Vacuum Cleaner is an excellent vacuum cleaner and one I am happy to recommend. First of all I had the older model of this Vacuum and when it finally died a death after a lot of work I hasten to add, I knew which model I wanted as I knew it was a vacuum cleaner which works and works well.I have two very fluffy dogs and they do shed their hair quite a bit, therefore, a hoover which is especially enabled for pet hair was one of the functions on my list and the VAX U85 is one which certainly did not let me down in any way. I immediately could see how it lifted the long hair from my carpet with ease and without any hesitation. I love how it has a slider which allows you to change from hard floor/ short pile carpets or deep pile carpets and when you change from the hard floor/short pile to the deep pile or the going from deep pile to the hard floor option, it is immediately noticed in the hoover as it is so much easier to use when it is on the deeper pile carpet option. The hard floor option means the actual head of the vacuum is adjusted so that it is nearer the floor and this is clearly noticed by the grip of the hoover.I love the fact that Vax has listened to their customers and provided a longer cable, therefore no more me having to hoover a bit of the floor then constant changing plug sockets to get the all the floors cleaned. I can happily plug it in one room and go from room to room and the hoover reaches easily without any tugging of the lead. Though I would recommend you only loosen the lead as you need it as it is very easy to trip over it when you are busy cleaning, as I have already tripped over it a couple of times. Also if an old person or child is in the house, caution would need to be taken with the lead as it is very long. Vax has also added an extra hose extension which is another huge plus as no more having to hold the hoover up to allow the hose to reach up high or behind something. The longer cable and longer hose extension is a great advantage to this model of Vacuum cleaner.Vax has also provided extra cleaning tools which are so useful to have plus the three smaller extensions fit neatly within each other, plus they have their own connector on the Hoover which means they can be found conveniently when needed.The VAX U85-As Pe Air Stretch Pet Multi function Vacuum Cleaner is one excellent cleaner which already I am in love with as it just simply works and works well providing me with great cleaning power within one very easy to operate and light weight Vacuum.Happy to recommend.As always I will update my review as time goes on.

Always owned Dysons and dogs. Decided to try this hoover to tackle the daily mess caused by my two Spaniels. It's a dream come true and the dysons are now in the bin. Incredible suction. It almost rips the vinyl flooring off in the downstairs loo!!! Yes that powerful.The hoover is well balanced and rugged. But lightweight and easy to use. The brush pulls dog hair and food left by my daughter right out of carpets and rugs and the attachments work really well.The best features include the extra long cable that allows me to pretty much hoover a large 5 bed house from one plug ! And the ease of use to adjust the power of the suction.It's a doddle to empty this thing and it has a good capacity.Ps I'm a stay at home dad who likes the place to look clean but also like tools that work effectively. This is by far the best hoover for medium to heavy daily use.

Edit: Docked a star as you can use this with power tools (easily). You can buy adapters for most any in/out size combo but none of them fit the Vax. Not a deal breaker unless you were hoping to do some DIY.Well this is a revelation. My last big Dyson died this week and I've had enough of the useless things to have had enough now.This little Vax is amazing. The design is clever and obvious, very natural to use.The suction is astounding. It feels much stronger than any Dyson I've had and importantly it found a full container of dirt only 24 hours after having run the Dyson around.It's quiet(ish). It's not very quiet, but it's quieter than most any other vacuum I can remember.And it's light(ish). I've actually used lighter vacuums, but they use a type of polycarbonate that is very strong but flexes and makes the structure feel wobbly. This is stiff as a brush and light.

Oh my goodness. This is a fantastic hoover. Being a Dyson user for the last 20 years or so, I am converted. This is lightweight, great hose and cord length, and the best tool I've ever met is the turbo tool which makes my stair carpets pile come up a treat. It's not as noisy as the Dyson and I like that the head is clear do you can see if the brush needs clearing. It has great suction on carpet, lino and laminate. It seems effortless. My only minor moan is that it doesn't have a bit to store the turbo tool like it does the other tools but it's a minor compromise for such a fantastic hoover. I have a 4 bed house with 3 dogs, 2 of which are long haired and this hoover has reduced the time it takes to do the job and the cylinder is big enough to capture the load. Highly recommend...Update: I've since bought my daughter one, a friend one and I'll be buying my daughter in law one too!
