    Moving away from the standard Dyson and Shark models and choosing an own brand wasn’t an easy choice. But i’m very impressed. It isn’t as compact as a Shark but has all the features and suction power you need. Plus the hand held tools, one actually spins with a brush (using the air flow) to lift things off of the stairs for example. Good product and at over 1/2 the price of the main line brands actually very good value.

    This excellent product is brilliant value and works exceptionally well. It’s as good if not better than my vax which is twice the price. Only negative is cord isn’t very long.

    Wow I’m so incredibly impressed with this!! The suction & power is remarkable.
    Had slight problems with missing part & 2 broken pieces… Amazon replaced the next day. Great customer service!!

    Amazon basic upright vacuum cleaner has the best suction ever and puts Dyson and Vax way down the list. It’s amazing value for money and would recommend it to anyone

    I bought this to take the torch for my knackered eleven or so years old Dyson, which cost me considerably more than this wonder from Amazon’s Own!

    Its suction & design are incredible. You can see the thought that’s gone into it.

    Its value is a blessing.

    Highly recommended by me & the nice person who cleans for me every week.

    This vacuum cleaner is serious business. Totally worth the money and better than a 250 Hoover I had before. If you’re looking at this review thinking about buying it. Do it and spend the extra cash on yourself you will not regret it.

    Love it!!! It’s a beast of a hoover!!
    Recommend 100%.
    It has an amazing suction power, sturdy and strong. Easy to assemble.
    It’s very heavy too, so i would not Recommend if you don’t have much strength or have weak arms, it’s that powerful.

    Only bought for a small flat my daughter has moved into. It does the job on new carpets. Only had a month seems a bit flimsy and brittle plastic on some points so let’s see how long it lasts. It’s doing fine at the moment.

    Oh my word, where to start. We recently got a vacuum for about the same price elsewhere and it was terrible. We swore to never get another cheap vacuum and I was searching on here when I came across this one. I was a little anxious as it’s so cheap but the reviews really sold it to us so we took the gamble.

    It is the most powerful vacuum I think I’ve ever used. The amount of junk it got out of the carpet was absolutely insane, the people here before us had a dog and this thing was filling the 3 litre tank 4 times just in the living room.

    It’s not the most manoeuvrable vacuum ever but its not like pushing a tank either but it cleans so deep you won’t even care.

    Definitely recommend

    It’s immeasurably better than my cordless one that was five times the price – sorry Mr Dyson but yours is comparatively awful. 10 ou tof 10.

    It’s a great lightweight carpet cleaner, does the job, great results and leaves the carpet practically dry. Fantastic price, the only thing i wished for is an attachment to be able to do the stairs but obviously you would have to pay for a bigger cleaner to have those things. Would highly recommend, oh, its very easy to clean as well

    Brilliant suction. Great tools. Easy to move across carpet. Bit heavier than my previuos Vax but so good in all other ways. A bargain price too

    It hasn’t even been a year and the damn thing is faulty. Suction is just the worst. doesn’t pick anything up, I’m better off using a brush and dust pan. .not worth the headache. Just add a bit more money and get a better one

  21. LorenzoH04 says:

    Suction is best I’ve known from a hoover and such a good price. Quite lightweight but wasn’t expecting it to be feather light due to the size and price A really good value product. Gets into must place without too much difficulty.

    This vacuum has suck up power. Incredible for the price compared to Gtech or more expensive brands.

    Great product to begin with, however, I’ve had it for 9 months now and the suction has completely gone. It’s a very heavy vacuum which is so noisy, despite one of its main selling points being that it’s quiet. I wouldn’t waste your money on something that may be good now, but is useless a few months later.

    This was my second vacuum from Amazon and I’ve just had to request a return again.

    The suction is brilliant but in both cases after about 5 uses the spinning hair catcher at the bottom siezed up and wouldn’t move. The problem is the motor is still working to try and move it causing it to produce a very strong smell of burning!

    This has happened to both the Amazon vacuums I’ve had. Going to try a Shark instead!

    Great but- best hoover with great suction. Bit more difficult to do the stairs and hose not long but overall very happy and would recommend.

  26. Mark Rechtin says:

    It’s a great vacuum but a bit heavy! Picked up a lot of our collies fur from the carpet the first time I used it and continues to vacuum well. The hose attachment is good too with the same strength of suction. I think the power cord could do with being a couple of metres longer but apart from that great for the price.

    Best vacuum I’ve had in the UK. Ever. I’d have to go deep space voyager to find a stronger vacuum than this.

    Very easy to cleanly empty the baggless cylinder.
    Great suction combined with a motorised head makes a great hover especially for its price.

    Very impressive

    This hoover is powerful and easy to use haven’t had a problem with the hoover it would get full marks if spare parts were on here when it does/if it breaks the reality is I probably would be able to fix. Update after a over a year of use suction power is still as good as when I first used it (have a dog that malts year round so hoover is used almost every day. Updated still powerful suction had this well over a year and still happy and wouldn’t change my review.

    Good practical vacuum only complaint so far is that the lead is not very long
    An extention needed to clean the front room

    Suction is amazing but a little too amazing on laminate flooring ie it is very hard to push the hoover as it’s so strong. The suction can be controlled but a Turner on the side which can also be hard to turn and it is not lightweight. For myself a little ocd this is a good hoover as I know it’s doing the job but wouldn’t recommend if you want something light and easy to use.

    As other people have said the suction on this machine is FAB, you have to turn the dial to half because it’s to sucky. Would recommend to anyone.

    Great vacuum cleaner and love everything about it apart from having to use the hose part on my rug as it has black squares on it and for some reason these are harder to clean.
    I would definitely recommend.

    I always had a cyclinder vacuum cleaner but I am enjoying this upright one. I like the way it rotates when turning corners

    An awesome hoover. We were sceptical about this hoover being so cheap, but since we’ve killed several expensive named brands we thought we’d give it a go and wasn’t disappointed.

    The suction is out this world and will try to lift the lighter carpets from the floor! Works wonders on the long pile carpets too.

    Easy to operate and manoeuvre, switching to hose is simple and switching the brush off is a doddle.

    The release of the head requires a bit of force but other than that we can’t complain. This is proper value for money.

    Previously only had Dyson products but this is amazing just as good. Definitely not a lightweight hoover but I like a heavy one, more than pleased with it.

  44. Martina44H says:

    This is sturdy and good for the price. The suction is great (a bit too good if you have any deep pile carpets).
    However my one gripe with this is that the silicone rim around the suction part of the vacuum leaves black marks all over the skirting boards. It’s a similar mark to the ones black plimsolls leave.
    Overall OK for the price, but to be ‘great’ I feel that Amazon may need to iron out a few of the kinks with their own brand products.

    If I was to make one very minor complaint, the flex is not that long. However, all the positives, Suction power is great, the difference between this and my old hoover is incredible. I had no idea how little my old hoover was picking up until I started using this one.

  46. AliHzvxusfop says:

    It has such a powerful suction (the best i have ever used),that it grips the floor and is a little hard to push,but the stuff it sucks up!! It’s brilliant!

    Wow the power in this really is incredible but… embarrassed how much dog hair had been in my carpet. Lightweight but when it’s on it’s not the easiest to pull n push but that’s because of the power. Brilliant bye bye Dyso

    Very pleased. sucks up well. For an upright monouvers well. It is a very good vacum. Ive had many expensive brands but out of them all this has proven to be the best.

    I bought this as a replacement, well for the price you can’t go wrong, super suction, i have a labrador and he malts most of the year its fab for that. All the tools fit on the hoover for easy access and a little knob at the side to turn if you wanted to use the nozzle which is great, without you using an extension pole. Super looking hoover well worth the money.

    Really pleased with this vacuum. It is unquestionably the heaviest cleaner I have ever used, however it is also perfect for vacuuming my artificial grass lawns (which is what I bought it for). The suction is less than the vacuum I use in the house and so doesn’t damage the artificial grass or suck up the sand ballast. Emptying it is easy and I always make sure that the lawns are free of large bits and only use when dry. A good product for the price and better than the more expensive one I had previously.
