Vax Mach Air Upright Vacuum Cleaner; High performance, Multi-cyclonic, with No Loss of Suction; Lightweight - UCA1GEV1, 1.5 Litre, 820W, Purple

This machine arrives neatly package with minimum assembly required. Just click the handle/wand into place and clip on the crevice tool, no screwdrivers required. Turn it on and wow, the performance is incredible! Really great suction, to the point where they had to include a vent in the cleaner head otherwise it would glue itself to the carpet and stall the brushbar. Speaking of brushbar, I think it's the real star of the show, it's made with very stiff nylon bristles that provide insane carpet agitation. The dirt start vibrating from far away and the carpet fibers are lifted and separated, giving all that suction the ability to remove every single embedded particle. It has a button to turn off the brushbar for hardwood floors and the suction hose can be attached to the wand for above floor cleaning. It works fine but it's nothing to rave about. Another thing that's well engineered is the bin: it features a good cyclonic system, reminding me of early dysons, and the emptying is easy and quick. The only downsides of the machine are the plastics, that aren't the sturdiests, and the motor that tends to run a little hot so I wouldn't vacuum for long sessions at a time in order to preserve its lifespan. Considering the pricepoint and amazing performance the compromises are absolutely worth it in ny opinion

I go through vacuum cleaners like others go through paper plates at a picnic. Ok, I exaggerated..but over the last 18 years I've shared my gaff with two Norwegian Forest Cats...both ginger boys and they were how you would describe as "fluffy". During their reign I tried a wide variety of vacuum cleaners and only Vax were capable of the job. Now I have a young half Norwegian Forest Cat, he's also Royal Red and my previous Vax is still usable but starting to complain after 3 years hard work! This one is from the same stable but a different model, the lead is considerably shorter than the previous one which is a blessing! Ok, I have to plug it in to different sockets but I'm not getting wrapped up in excess wire! Delivery was excellent, putting it together was extremely easy and the box is now a cat fort. As with all my previous Vax uprights the suction is phenomenal! Pulls up fur with no issues other than 'Blimey!', it's very easy to clean, and I'm always shocked at the amount of dust (dander) it picks up. This model is very lightweight so it's easy to manoeuvre around, it came with one attachment, a little crevice/brush device. All in all an excellent vacuum cleaner at an exceptional price! 100% recommended!

Well known brand Extremely great suction I have five cats and a dog and this is on par with shark one that broke so I was looking to replace it I find this really good at cleaning carpets and floors The suction is great It is quite difficult to manoeuvre in my experience And is a bit heavy The hose suction section is very good too however it could be more easily accessible Overall a fabulous hoover for a affordable price Really good power

A great hoover, extremely lightweight and easy to use. Very powerful on both carpets and rugs so making it very versatile. The clear storage of helps you see when you need to empty the dust cylinder. The electric cable is a good length so you don’t need to keep unplugging it.

I have had this make before 13 yrs in fact until it went wrong. This a really nice hoover nice colour and for the money really good value and easy to use. Can't recommend it more.
