Got the Hoover, which was decent enough for the price. The battery died within 3 months and now only goes for 5 minutes before dying. The battery was replaced minutes after ringing the company, just need to wait a week for the new battery.
Hoover has good suction. Light easy to adapt tools. Manoeuvre s easy on hard floor, carpet setting with brush on is also light work. Easy to empty too. As good as my pld dyson pull along hoover. Good price too.
Nice little vacuum that’s pretty lightweight, and has good suction power. Yes it’s nowhere near my mains vacuum, but it would be foolish to expect comparable suction between this and a 1600W appliance!
You could also mock the woeful battery life on turbo mode, but again you have to be realistic in your expectations. I’ve found that this has changed the vacuuming routine – it’s so much quicker and easier to whip it out (oo-er missus) and do a quick bit of floor sucking that you can easily manage to job by doing a different area each day and sticking it back on charge.
My only gripe is that the brush roller will hair-wrap quicker than buttered penguin on a waterslide, but the quick-release brush is removed in seconds to sort it out. Given the bargain price of this model I can heartily recommend it. I just wish the spare batteries were cheaper!
The lights on the front are very bright so great for under beds dust busting. Noise level is also pleasantly low.
It comes with a useful range of tools, a charge lasts long enough to cover all normal cleaning needs and charging is easy.
The wall hook provided allows for storage in any convenient small space.
This hoover is amazing!
I have a beautiful labrador who she’d hair everywhere and this hoover does a brilliant job of hoovering them all up off my wooden floors.
I have great control and use this hoover with ease.
It is powerful, strong and yet lightweight.
It holds good charge.
It may seem expensive but for a top quality product like this it is worth every penny.
5 stars and highly recommended.
Lovely little hoover, light, quiet, effective. The light on the front in carpet mode (which I use on hard floors to collect all the dog hair) really helps to see the bits you’ve missed!
But be aware that it is little. Quiet a small suction head and a small chamber to hold what you’ve hoovered up, and the battery life is quite short. It’s good for me as I use it multiple times a day and plug it in I between, but if you want to do the whole house in one go it’s probably not the best option!
I was very impressed with the suction. Great for cat fur but when vacuuming up the litter it still left the minuit pieces behind. Other than that I would definitely recommend this vacuum cleaner and the seller.
Got this as the reviews seemed good but kept clogging up with pet hair. In the end I got fed up with constantly clearing the blockage that I sent it back.
Great value, excellent vacuum cleaner, lightweight, and no cord, marvellous. I used to dread getting my heavy (but very good) corded vacuum out of the hall cupboard, having to change plug points before I could do all of my bungalow, tripping over the cord or it getting a knot in it. This Hoover vacuum is definitely light, easy to manoeuvre and I keep it in the kitchen (not in a cupboard). It does the whole of my 9 roomed (3 with carpets, the rest hard floors) detached bungalow without needing charging. Highly recommend this cleaner.
Have just given it a test run and it’s picked up bits my very expensive Dyson left behind.
Love that it’s easy to adapt to dusting skirtings. It’s sooo light to use, whizzed I up the staircase with it. The light is also really bright which is great for the edges.
It’s great that there’s a handy storage bag for the extra tools and spare filter.
I’m so pleased with it I may give her my clumpy Dyson instead.
Only for occasional use as we have a cleaner once a week. Good suction, easy to use, lightweight. Have to remove hairs that have wrapped around manually. Easy to empty. Not so easy to detach to use as handheld or reaching high up.
First what is good about this product is that it is compact, lightweight and therefore stores easily which is great for saving space. However it is concentrating on these features which have probably led to what I think are its substantial shortcomings. The product is marketed on the basis that it good for vacuuming pet hair and I am afraid that is not the case. The problem is where the suction tube meets the cylinder. This gap is very narrow and if you have a dog, like I do, who has hairs that are by no means long the top of the tube or the cylinder becomes blocked and suctions is lost completely. In practical terms this means you are for ever taking off the cylinder and unblocking the tube to start again. You will repeat this process continually until the battery or your patience runs out.
If you have a pet with even moderate hair length I would avoid this product unless you want to turn vacuuming into an aerobic exercise where you have to walk to the waste bin every five minutes to empty the blocked tube and the cylinder.
Excellent all round vacuum. Light, handy, long battery life, and very good cleaning. Easy to empty. The removable battery makes charging much more convenient. Very pleased with this little machine!
I previously left a review saying how well this worked, but let’s see how long it lasts. Well! After just a few weeks, the lid to the collection bin has broken and fallen off! It is very plasticky and not durable atall. I have checked to see how to report this in order to get a replacement part.
The procedure is such a faff! I have to return the broken pieces by walking a mile to a shop (I don’t drive). Then I’ll have to wait however long to get a replacement, without a vacuum cleaner at home.
I have found this procedure a real chore in the past, and it’s the only thing I find taxing about Amazon. I can’t find a way of talking to someone in order to get this sorted……I will try not to order any more large items from Amazon because of the faff when things go wrong.
So, mu advise…..don’t buy this cheaply made vacuum…….
Love this Hoover. We switched from a Henry hoover with pet head and have not been disappointed. We have 2 cats and this Hoover has tackled the job perfectly. It’s light powerful and I love the built in torch. Manoeuvres well and goes pretty flat.
I’ve had my corded hoover for years and was not convinced that a cordless one would have the same power but I really wanted something lightweight and easy to carry up and down stairs. After much research this Hoover brand came out second in reviews behind the very expensive Dyson Animal and it is like 200 cheaper! I am really pleased with how it performs, you can have it on normal suction or turbo and it has massively improved my carpets (I have a cat that sheds a lot of fur). The only thing to get used to is the battery time, I wish it were longer (its about 30-40 mins) but the (light) weight and maneuverability is a massive plus. Definitely converted and definitely recommend.
Just bought this because I am sick of my g tech pet air ram going over stuff but not picking it up, I purchased that because my old Dyson was too heavy and I can’t afford the new cordless ones, very disappointed with g tech, they are overated. I love this one, very lightweight, picks everything up with plenty of suction and the accessories are great help, I’m 65 so anything that helps me keep my bungalow clean is great. As with anything I buy I find understanding the instructions difficult so I will probably look on you tube. Having used this vacuum several times I have found that the battery doesn’t last long , this should come with a second battery so there is always one ready to use. I have now purchased a second battery so I can vacuum the whole house.
I am now 23/5/22 thoroughly sick of this vacuum. I hadn’t realised when I bought it that it needed to be on turbo constantly in order to get enough suctio to pick up properly. I have read that in turbo the max time is about 8 minutes, I probably get less than that and it isn’t enough time to hoover throughout my small bungalow. As the charge time is 6 hours it is too difficult to clean my house in one day. Keep reading people are getting 2 batteries with theirs, I certainly didn’t !!!!!!!!
This is a sleek and lightweight cordless vacuum cleaner, much lighter than my old Gtech, great for small spaces, versatile thanks to all the components/tools and takes up very little storage space. Great buy!
Works well so far (about 6 months) – great at getting blasted dogs hair out of the carpet (I think we’re getting out stuff that’s been there for years). Definitely needs bigger dust storage as it has to be emptied too frequently (and the corners of the dust bin are a pain to get into, even with the supplied tools). Can’t speak for stairs, as we don’t have any, but I don’t see why there’d be a problem, as it’s pretty light. Suspect a bigger house would need to invest in extra batteries – we usually manage most of the (relatively small) house on a charge, but only just. Doesn’t really need a dock – we just leave it standing upright on the floor with the battery charge cable plugged in. Satisified overall, given the price (175) – much cheaper than the D word
This is a lovely hoover. Light to use, manoeuvres easily and attachments swap in and out easily. So much easier to get this out than main cylinder hoover, so house gets cleaned in stages more frequently.
I read reviews in Good Housekeeping and it was second in their review.
A 179 it was a lot cheaper than other vacuums.
Nice weight and great performance .
I prefer to use this rather than my plug in Dyson.
As with other cordless vacs, the dust cylinder is small and a bit more awkward to empty and there’s no place to carry the tools on the vac.
However, these are small sacrifices for a great little vac.
Very lightweight! Picks up dog hair really well! Love the fact it can stand independently as other cordless ones I’ve had in the past need lying down or propping up when you momentarily stop your hoovering and move to another room. It’s the lightest one I have had. The battery life is good. Easy to detangle the roller brush from hair etc.
So far so good does everything a Hover should, nice and light weight good suction and easy controls, attachments that come with it are brilliant eats dog hair no problem.
Does need a second battery if you have a large home and hovering more than 3 rooms on one charge, it does take 2 or 3 hrs to re charge.
Also great for the car or caravan.
Saves pounds, better than getting robbed for overpriced Dyson’s.
