Vax Power 3 Compact Lightweight Bagless Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner, 800 W, 2.2 Liters - Grey/Orange [Energy Class A]

Fantastic vacuum cleaner.I was looking for a new vacuum cleaner at around £60 - £70. I've been using Henry for the past 6 years and it had finally given up the ghost. I found it really heavy and cumbersome to drag around the house, also the bags didn't come cheap.So, I was kind of relieved when it died on me. My new Vax is amazing - it's incredibly lightweight, small enough to sit on a stair step, good price, a known brand, fantastic suction and the best of all, no bags. The cylinder is so simple and easy to empty.After using this vacuum. My carpets look so much cleaner. I've got cats and it seems to suck up the cat hairs embedded in the carpet easily. I can't recommend this vacuum enough. It's powerful yet small enough to pack away. Great.

I love my new hover it does what it says on the packet. it has a very strong suction so if you have a deep carpet it might not be the best choice for you as it is hard to pull and push as you hover but if you have a low carpet this is ideal and picks hairs up with no problem. The extra tools you get are ideas for them hard to reach places Aswel and it's really good for using on the stairs because of its light weight, for that reason I give it a 5. it's worth every penny.

It's very neat, lightweight, easy to carry vacuum. It has powerful suction that picks up dust very well, with no issues concerning blocked hose. Hepa filter prevents dust escaping back into the room well. The dust canister is easy to empty and clean. Filters easy to remove, clean and replace. The running noise is low. Spare filters available from Amazon. It has a 2yr warranty. In these respects, it a very good vacuum cleaner. Just what I would expect from Vax, and for this it gets *****However, it's difficult to use on laminate (I don't have carpet, so can't comment on it's use there), because of the poor design of the brush head, the suction sticks the brush head to the floor, making it difficult to hoover with ease. Opening the vent on the plastic hose only partially helps ease this. Also, the brush head and accessories are not good quality: The brush head scrapes across the floor, I'm concerned that it will scratch the laminate), because the bristles on it are stiff and barely longer that the plastic part of the brush, and the upholstery brush scrapes across the upholstery rather than brushing it (again, concerns that it will damage the fabric over time), because the red material part is no higher than the plastic rim. Also have concerns about how long the clasp will last on the dust canister, as it needs a bit of force to click it into place and it doesn't seem to be very robust. For this it gets only *.Note: I have purchased a different brush head (FIND A SPARE Floor Head Brush Tool 35mm for Miele, Shark, Vax.... £9.99), which has a groove running across the underneath part of the brush head, allowing some air flow), and a different upholstery brush (Upholstery Brush For Vax Pet All Terrain....£3.94), and this has completely resolved these issues.This is a great little vacuum cleaner, but am disappointed that Vax have provided such poor quality tools to go with it.

Most of the reviews are great on this hoover, the bad reviews mainly say that a) the suction is too strong and b) the hose is too short.My initial thoughts... 'How can suction be too strong ?!?!' but it's quite a workout when hoovering :-PThere is a 'switch' that you can slide up or down on the hose to control suction which makes the hoover perfect. I would say the hose is on the small side but the hoover is so light weight that should you need to, you can simply pick up the hoover as it's very light.I love the attachments that come with it too. I've hoovered my whole entire house today including blinds, upholstery, laminate, lino, carpet, leather sofas and it's been a JOY!!!SO grateful for this hoover !!!I don't usually leave reviews but when in was considering purchasing this hoover, the reviews helped a lot, so I thought I'd contribute.

Very disappointed in this hoover, the first time I used it the suction was really good and was very impressed. I didn't expect it to loose all suction after only a couple of times using it. I will now have to purchase a new hoover because this one just pushes the dirt around and doesn't actually pick anything up. For the price I was expecting it too have lasted a bit longer than the amount of time I have actually used it. I am only in a 1 bed small flat so it hasn't had to do a lot. I thought I would be ok with a branded name and the size and previous reviews seemed ok. Like I said very disappointed in this product.

Not bad .but small brushing head clogs frequently

My vac (or vax) came in darker blue color but not that I care, it's a vaccum after all. But it sucks, and in a good way, this things is very powerful, cleans well and for carpets or rug it works wonders. Very pleased with it. Only part I am not so thrilled about after having used it for a while:1. there is no way to attach or keep the accessories together2. the end of the vac gets stuck to tile because there is so much power.. minor issue
