great for smaller properties or as a light weight cleaner for stairs , ceiling corners etc. i misread some of the reviews and thought it came with 2 batteries which makes things easier as you would’nt ever run out of power however it only comes with one with another costing 60.00 which seems quite expensive to me. Will see how just using 1 works out and will buy another if needed.
Over the years I have always gone for a Dyson-but to me this is far superior and it comes with an extra battery, so when one is charging you can get on with the cleaning and should you run out of charge there`s one on hand.The light is a bonus (or maybe not ) because you can see what you haven`t hoovered (:
Had for a few months, still working well, seems quite sturdy, easy to clean, would recommend.
I can use to clean my house once then the battery is out, that is roughly 20 mins hoovering. Not as it is advertised of how long the battery would last! Other than that it works well!
I have had this hoover for around two month now. No more hasling with plugs and cords – the hoover can be easily accessed at any time. It works for around 25 minutes at a time. I especially like the light on the main head of the hoover, it helps to clearly see even the smallest dust. This model also have a good variety of attachments, which are really useful for cleaning the stairs, corners and a car. With a couple of simple clicks you can easily dispose of its contents. I would recommend this hoover for anyone who is looking to get a nice looking hoover for quick jobs around the house.
Just a quick review. I was looking for something similar to dyson vacuum but cheaper as I already have a robot cleaner so this one would be used just occasionally or for stairs only.
This product is exactly that. The price is perfect, accessories sufficient. I only have hard floors so I won’t use any brush but so far it’s been great on hard floors. I also have a dog and I’m thinking to buy the pet brush they sell.
So all in all a great product for the money. Thanks 🙂
Liked that it wasnt as heavy as the Shark. So easier on the hands and wrists for those of us with issues. Very easy to use and manoeuvre with it lighting up when it detects a dark area. Also much cheaper than a shark. Suction is good for a cordless. Obviously the stronger the suction you use the shorter the battery lasts. I live in a 3 bed terrace and can get the whole house done on one charge on high suction power. Easy to empty, which needs to be done after each use due to small compartment. I guess the only thing I dont like is the relatively expensive cost of a second battery, should you wish to buy one if your house is bigger or dont have time to recharge the one battery.
I do own a Henry but with 2 black Labrador you can image the dog hair and this wireless hoover has made it soooo much easier to keep on top of with the hassle of lugging a heavy Henry around and put away!!!
It’s Purrfick for picking up dog hair and bits and the light is cool too and comes in when it needs too, very clever! It light to handle too and I love you don’t have to keep hold of a trigger for it to work as that gets annoying and makes your arm ache too so been able to press the on button and off you go and press it again to turn it off is brilliant!
Emptying the bin bit is easy too and not to fiddly and the battery last quite a while but I work my cleaning out so it can be charging in between doing different rooms so it works out great but I am think of buying a second battery but for now I’m fine on the one battery so we will see but I don’t blame the hoover for that (it’s me been impatient more like!)
The hoover is made of excellent quality materials and doesn’t look cheap n nasty either and I have been a cleaner for 15 years and this handheld wireless hoover for 200 is defo value for money as it picks up better than the very expensive brand leaders!!!! But has a much more affordable price tag so why pay more????
It’s made it so much easier to keep my house in order and I would highly recommend it too!!!
Great suction power! Good advantage to have different speeds. Quiet too. Easy to empty. I do find it heavy to use but I have carpal tunnel so I do struggle with hoovering. Battery life is great if you use on the lowest power, I do my 2 bedroom home in one go. However if i use it on high power I only get to do a few rooms .
All in all a good buy though.
Very light and easy to use. The light on the hoover is handy and the multiple suctions are great. It can be transformed to a smaller hoover which is a bonus. Just two negatives – the battery doesn’t last long (constantly needs go on charge) and I have to empty it every other use or so. But overall still very worth it.
powerful,easy to use,auto sensor is great,light weigh
This vaccuum is amazing! We have a dyson V6 and it’s good but this clears up our dogs hair so much better. With the carpet attachment and the bumper down and on full power the suction is so strong! With no trigger and just on/off button I personal really like it, it’s not heavy and has a really good battery life when left in auto we got about 35/40 minutes. I saw some comments about build quality but it feels like a well built bit of equipment and is easy to clean. We love it.
Good value for money, solid build, good size and baterry life. Happy so far, does the job.
A bit daunted when I opened the box as so many different parts but needn’t have worried as it was easy to assemble. I’ve only used the vacuum a couple of times so far but I’m liking it very much – easy to manoeuvre and seems to be doing the job. The only glitch for me – the balance of the main dirt cup/ battery seems to be slightly off as I feel that it falls to one side but that may just be me.
Pros: Suction and the auto level is brill. Attachments brill. Manoeuvre of the main head Brill. Ease of emptying the cylinder, brill. Interchange brushes is brill.
Cons: Fiddly & Faff to interchange the attachments as the top heavy load of the cylinder dont stand still or lie flat to change attachments. The charging stand is to be fixed onto the wall and i cannot do that so i have to try & balance the cleaner against the wall, so be careful with this.
Overall it is a good cleaner to get. Dyson is too over hyped & the reviews of this is spot on regards to pet hair. I have 2 small dogs & in one sweep it picks the minor hairs up from the floor.
So much easier to use than corded vacuum also greater at removing hair from carpet .
I’ve waited a little while to review as I wanted to test the the vacuum in the house and car.
So here goes: this vacuum is totally worth considering as it’s performance has exceeded my expectations.
I’d been looking at the more expensive cordless vacuums but couldn’t bring myself to pay the hefty cost. I then started to review the Jashen and the reviews were good.
The vacuum arrived promptly and was easy to assemble.
It’s powerful on carpets and hard floors. The rollers are easy to change and the roller for carpets is designed so that any hairs captured are easy to remove.
The dust barrel is easy to remove and clean.
You get lots of tools with the product.
In summary – do give this vacuum real consideration as I totally think it’s worth it’s money.
just wow. it does our laminate floors a treat, picks up all dust and pet hairs.
Battery life is good, we have not run out of power yet doing the stairs and all rooms in the house.
Build quality is excellent and feels good in the hands.
Suction power is also very good.
I particularly like the way the lights in the cleaning head adjust to the light in the room and the auto mode and dust sensor which increases the power as needed.
This is a Champagne product for lemonade Money.
Its not suitable for older peoplevas the fittings are to hard to unscrew
Brilliant vacuum I have in the past bought GTech ,hoover ,Vax ,and Dyson over 40 yrs and I have to report this is the best so far I suffer from arthritis so it’s good for me especially doing staris
Amazing product. I would recommend over Dyson and Shark brands. Hair wrap is no longer an issue. 5 stars plus more
Absolutely love this hoover! The auto suction is an amazing feature! Saves battery and time messing about changing constantly for different levels of dirt.
Great cordless vacuum cleaner.
Very comfortable to work with.
Strong suction power.
The brushes are excellent.
Battery holds about 20-30 min in the auto mood.
Great buy
Nice bit of kit good quality .. never had one before so not sure how it compares .. the battery seems to run down quickly but last long enough. Fixing are OK and charges well, Need to empty after every use to keep suction. But like it. Works well on carpet and kitchen floor.
My first of two critics is the battery life, which is not quite long enough for me to do our downstairs wooden floors. Our house isn’t massive but I generally don’t have enough battery life to do it all. I solve this by alternating where I start, so it’s not a high issue but I would still like the battery to last a little longer. The self regulating turbo power is a clever feature, meaning it gives an extra boost when it detects more dirt. Obviously turning this off would allow the battery to last longer, but I like it.
My second critic is the weight of the battery and motor, which isn’t a problem when used the suction head but when you take this off to do the skirting boards, it’s very heavy. I found turning it over, and letting the weight hang helped, but its still quite weighty.
Other than these 2 small and not insurmountable critics, its a very handy piece of kit and I’m happy with it.
Charging time isn’t long but I can’t say exactly how long as I leave it on over night.
Emptying it is easy, though I have learnt to do it over an open bin as it can backfire a little if you’re not careful.
You have to be careful when standing it up against a cupboard as it is very top heavy and I fear it could fall over very easily. I just lie it down for safety!
The suction power on the hoover is definitely something I was a bit apprehensive about with a cordless hoover, but it does a brilliant job on the carpets and the car turned out fab using this too! Highly recommend
Just arrived today and already seeing a massive improvement over our previous vacuum. the light weight design allows for easy manoeuvrability.
I have received the vacuum today, very prompt delivery after only purchasing it the day before. I have been researching on good cordless vacuum and was impressed with what I saw on this one.
On my first use I find it very good, cleans better than the Henry vacuum I own. I have cleaned it with the Henry vacuum and ran through with this. It still picked up quite a bit of dust.
It is a very portable and the sensors does work very well in identifying dust. I also like the attachments provided, to clean my place more efficiently.
As for battery life, I was able to clean my one bedroom apartment (hard floors, carpet, bedding, sofa and tables) on one bar of battery. The sensors definitely helps the battery life.
I suffer from dust mite allergies and sinuses, so I will use this often over the next few weeks. Hopefully it keeps up to my expectations.
Pretty decent vacuum cleaner, good solid feel to the build and really strong sucking power.
Also have an auto shut off when charging so it doesn’t over load.
Lots of accessories and doesn’t feel like it’s going to break any time soon.
So easy to use. And put together. Lightweight and simple to chargw
I bought this product few days ago and I’m amazed how well it cleans, my previous hoovers were really bad at picking up hair and debris but this is fantastic, would recommend
Easy to assemble and use. Like the option to cradle charge or charge direct from charger.
Fittings are kept together in charging cradle. Very light and reasonable suction etc
Item, i bought this to replace an aging Dyson V6 animal and so far im very impressed with it, it has a quality feel to it and i would say it has more power then the dyson. You get all the usual attachments, and the LED torch on the endheads is a nice touch.
The battery charge level display is very handy (A feature the dyson lacked) and the bracket for wall mounting is quite solid (mounts via 3 screws and wall plugs)
Cleaningemptying, again it outshines the dyson here, you can easily remove the dust tankdirt tank by simply pressing in 2 buttons, and then take just the tank to the bin to empty it, much easier and cleaner then the dyson.
I would recommend this hoover to anybody whos considering it.
Really well packaged item with a great suction and the battery life seems good. Great selection of tools including two different rollers. The display is a nice touch and shows you current status of battery etc.
Suction on the floor is excellent, and the power sensor works great. The suction on 1 inch thick carpets is not so great, but the carpet brush picks a lot of hair and fluff. It is quite heavy, especially when you use the short accessories and have to hold it on your hand without resting it on the floor. Yet I never had a cordless vacuum cleaner before so I don’t know how heavy are the other comparable ones. Emptying the bin is a piece of cake. Overall its a very useful tool or gadget to have around in the house, especially if you have kids and/or pets. This tool helps you keep the house clean since you can clean it much more often. If I had to choose between a robot and this, I would definitely choose this, especially if you are around in the house very often.
Got bought this for my birthday and it has changed my life! So easy to use, and really lightweight and really love the colour. Suction power is great, the auto mode which changed depending on how much dirt you are sucking up, is a great idea and works brilliantly, you don’t have to keep pressing buttons when you vacuum. It comes with a roller for wooden floors but I have been using the brush roller for both and find this works great too. My son has allergies so the HEPA filter really helps. Happy to recommend
The vacuum arrived very well packaged in a sturdy box, and the instructions were clear and simple, making assembly a breeze.
The finish and materials used in its construction gave the vacuum and its components a surprising feel of quality and durability you would only expect from much more expensive brands. All the parts snapped together with a positive reassuring click, which gave the vacuum an overall feel of sturdiness and precision. The weight was well balanced with the battery mounted on top of the handle acting as a counter balance to the motor.
The suction of the vacuum was more than adequate for everyday dust and dirt. Operational noise was also relatively low, even on the highest suction setting.
Emptying the vucuum after use was very simple and convenient, with a press of a button, all the dirt was realeased from the fair sized dust compartment into the bin.
Overall, the vacuum is well built, easy to use, convenient and above all, exceptional value for the price.
Only had it a couple of weeks, use it lots and it’s brilliant. Hoping it will las
I was looking for a vacuum cleaner with good suction power, equally capable of cleaning hard floor and carpeted surfaces, and with an accessible filter/empty bin, which are easy to keep clean.
I primarily opted for this Jashen model because of the price and the overwhelmingly favourable customer reviews. I wanted to upgrade from a cheap corded model, but I didn’t want to spend 500+ that some competitors sell for. I’m completely satisfied with my choice, I genuinely feel that I’ve got value for money for a vacuum cleaner, which effectively cleans every surface.
I also chose this model because of its auto-power feature, which senses how much dirt there is and adjusts the amount of power accordingly (reviews of comparison products warn of short battery life with many cordless models). With this model, I can vacuum my large-ish flat within one battery charge, demonstrating that it holds a fully functioning charge for at least 25-30 minutes.
Other features, which I thought might be gimmicky, but have turned out to be really useful, are its LED lights and swivel head, meaning I can vacuum under the bed and sofa without moving the furniture. The different brush heads, also clean upholstery very well.
I’ve experienced no problems with the weight; it’s well balanced, it has a comfortable grip and the noise level is relatively quiet for a vacuum cleaner. It honestly makes vacuum cleaning a surprisingly enjoyable experience, compared with awkwardly lugging about the heavy, noisy, dust-omitting models that I’ve previously used/owned.
I’ve recommended it to a few people, I would buy again from Jashen, with confidence, based on this purchase.
She was very impressed with the look of it and asked for me to hang it on the included bracket in her kitchen. The bracket has a handy storage for two of the four included attachments. The other is stored in the vacuum, the other in a cupboard!.
Battery took 4 hours to charge first time and ran it to flat as instructed. The vacuum works perfectly, cleaning the stairs brilliantly. As the vacuum is so good, you must stop to empty the dirt bucket quite often! Easily done. I found the ramping up and down of suction depending on level of dirt to be quite effective and the battery life while running is good for what you get. Unsure why my mums g’tech gets so much more battery life doing the same job. It’s curiosity, not a complaint.
The plastics and metal finishing are easily as good as dyson or any other branded product.
Bought on prime day with 55 off. Happy with that.
Really great vacuum and so versatile. Can do the vacuuming in half the time and get to places without having to move furniture etc. Well built and sturdy yet light and manoeuvrable. Easy to use and change tools and hangs away on charge in the cupboard out of sight. For a cordless the suction power is great though may not be just as powerful as our corded Vax vacuum but have been pleasantly surprised by how well it lifts even cotton and hairs! Only small negative comment is length of running time with the battery provided-may need to invest in the 5 amp hour battery but it does recharge quickly-so have a coffee half way through the hoovering!
As usually came from Amazon fast and secure.
Got this vacuum for 144 on Amazon Prime Offer – not bad for the value. It feels very solid and sturdy, build from quality materials not just cheap plastic. The cleaning/ emptying function is quick and easy – something that I was particularly keen on. To clean hole 3bed house it drained only one bar from the battery. I really like the battery display function. Its not heavy on the hand and feels well balanced. Also what seems handy to have is the auto-suction function and the LED light.
Our top of the range Dyson cordless stick vacuum died and had to be replaced. We were shocked to see the price of a new dyson was double what we paid last time, so decided to look for an alternative and after a lot of searching and checking reviews chose the Jashen V16. We were not disappointed; if anything it is more powerful than the dyson and has a better range of tools as standard. Battery life is good and the battery life display let’s you see clearly how long before it stops running. The floor light is a bonus. You can get an additional battery which charges in a port which is part of the wall dock. The on board battery is charged whenever the cleaner is attached to the dock (both charge concurrently). The only criticisms are that it is slightly heavier than the dyson and the dust holder capacity is not great though it is easily emptied after each use which is probably better anyway. In conclusion, buy this rather than a dyson unless you are determined to pay a lot more to buy British. For me dyson need to drop their prices a lot if they want to stay in the game.
Before I purchased it I did a lot of research cause I wanted to make sure I get something that’s not heavy and has good suction power but without sounding like a factory.
To be honest this vacuum is a noisier than my last one but only when it’s at max power.
The battery seems to be enough for a small apartment if you only vacuum the floor; for other stuff like spiderweb or mattress/couch it needs to be charged again or have a spare battery.
The accessories are really helpful especially the small rotative brush. I use it on my rug which is very thick and it does a great job vacuuming pet hair and whatever small particles I drop.
The charging system is also a nice one cause you can charge the vacuum and a second battery at the same time in case you have a lot of vacuuming to do.
One thing I don’t really like is the fact that the edges of the main brush are not flexible and it won’t vacuum properly the extremities of my rugs. I get those parts cleaned with another accessory so that’s not a big deal.
Per total I really like it and I recommend buying it as it’s totally worth the price
Was really impressed which the power this vacuum cleaner. I had a Dyson in the past, and I can see the clear difference this is much cheaper and more powerful I wasn’t expecting this. It’s a great Value for money and an excellent experience while cleaning
As for the general use of the vacuum, the pick-up is good, it is great for stairs and tight locations too like under furniture. The bin is small but I still manage to vacuum the entire house without the need to empty it until I am finished. Battery life is good too, again I can clean the entire house, though having a spare is the way forward, should you run out, which has happened once or twice. It does not weigh too much and feels balanced in the hand.
Things I would change, I would have liked to have had a flexible extension hose for when cleaning the car or using it as a duster. Also an under- appliance tool would be great for getting under the fridge, washing machine or behind the radiators.
I decided to take the plunge and get a cordless vacuum as I needed to get something easier than a corded. I conducted my research and very nearly bought a well known brand, I changed my mind and decided to look on Amazon, I came across this one, looked at the reviews and watched the videos so I decided to order. Well I’m not disappointed at all and really glad I made the choice, I keep guinea pigs indoors so needed something with good suction to pick their stuff up. I have vacuumed the house on auto and its brilliant, it adjusts to match the load which is great for energy saving, it also has a light so makes it better for picking up, I also vacuumed the sofa and they feel so much better. You don’t need to buy branded to get the best, this is a great option and I hope they will overtake the market in time.
Auto mode – dust sensor is good and works well in auto mode
Good features for best price. I love i
Very good hoover suction is mind blowing ! everything is up to standard although it was abit over priced
It wasn’t difficult to set up. and it wasn’t hard to use at all. it is slightly on teh heavier side but my daughter who is 11 was able to use it deftly without issues to vacuum teh floor and teh height was good for both herslef and myself.
I think I felt it being heavy when I was doing cobwebs as my hands had to be raised. However using it on the floow as a regular vacuum cleaner was really good.
I haven’t tested the battery life but I’ll like to get a spare battery anyways for those days when you are doing a full house clean and need at least an hour of use.
Also the charger has a separate spot to charge a spare battery without having to tswap around batteries for charging which is a plus.
Over all really very good purchase
Definitely good value for money and great battery life as long as you keep it either on auto or min setting. Overall really great vacuum cleaner well worth the money.
It comes with a little motorised brush which is really good for the stairs and car.
The suction power is awesome, battery life is really good.
I’m really happy with it.
I received this item very quickly. Happy with this for using on both wooden floors & carpet with different attachments for both. 3 power settings & max is powerful. Various attachments, easy storage & also great for the car. My first cordless hoover & would recommend this.
I use it for everything at home. Different attachments for different jobs. The small upholstery tool and the brushroll I use mainly for my car and because the main tube is detachable, it’s easy to use in narrow places or on the stairs etc.
Not much to setting it up as it’s virtually made up for you out of the box. There’s an LED display on the battery which tells me when the filter needs cleaning or when the dust needs emptying.
I’ve attached a video where I try to explain what bit does what, particularly for my mum to watch too. This vac is in my opinion, good value for money. There are some models out there which are more expensive and can’t do what this does. It’s a quality build. Very impressed and recommended.
Well, what can I say – I am actually blown away with this product. I suffer from rheumatoid & psoriatic arthritis so was over the moon when the weight was not a problem (or lack of weight should I say) The suction was unbelievable. I have a cat who sheds a lot of fur & it just sucks it up no problem, I also have very long hair & am so impressed with the way it does not tangle up in the head. It was extremely easy to put together & I love the way it has 2 ways to charge, so you don’t have to charge it on the included wall mounted dock – the digital display is brilliant so you know where you are with the battery while using it & also while it is charging. I live in a duplex so have 2 stories, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, dining, kitchen & lounge & am impressed that the battery lasts for all of that. You can also purchase a second battery which can be stored neatly in the dock. It is a super space saver. The packaging was outstanding & the instructions are brilliant. So far I’m very impressed & highly recommend it.
Overall nice balanced in hand, with front light activated automaticity while brush is rotating. Came with 4 attachments and brush roller.
I found that max the suction is directly relevant to if roller and bumper switched correctly:
Use soft roller on hard floor with bumper up position.
Use brush roller best on carpets and hard floor with bumper down.
I have mix floor all around house so left mine on brush rollers as it cleans both.
Suction power powerful even on economic mode with quite long battery life. Overall great product with automated clever suction power changes depending how much dust detected.
The only one problem is that, it seduces people into thinking that it wasn’t fitting to charger. I was upset and about to return back but my other half read manual and found small robber which covering charging pins to protect which needed to remove before charge. Now charges how it should.
Have a look my video to see how to change trollers and see real size and noice level. Hope it will help to decide if item suitable for personal needs or not. If you found my video and comments useful please push below helpful button 🙂
Excellent cordless vacuum cleaner. I bought it to replace a corded vacuum cleaner, I have used it on hard floor and on carpets.
Pros
Excellent suction power, it has 3 speeds.
Excellent cleaning on carpets and hard floors.
It is very well built and feels very sturdy. Ithas all the attachments which you could need. It has 2 motorized brushes which is so helpful.
Not very heavy, I have tried other vacuum cleaners which felt really heavy and bulky( they were some of the very expensive brands) .
Cons
Battery life on middle speed around 25 minutes which some times feels a bit shorter than what you want to do especially that once you get it in your hand you just want to clean the whole house. But you can buy a spare battery.
The bin is a bit small 0.5 L and emptying it requires to take all the filters out which is a bit annoying and time consuming.
It doesn’t come with spare filter.
Overall I am happy with my new cordless vacuum cleaner and I recommend it.
Pros:
– The suction power is strong so no issues vacuuming thick carpets
– Eco,mid or boost modes available depending on suction power needed,personally i find the mid mode has more than enough suction power for my carper
– Its light and easy to clean the filter, handle is also pretty comfortable
– The batter lasts appro 40 minutes on mid power which is pretty long compared to other cordless vacuums and is sufficient to vacuum my mid sized apartment
– There is a alert via the digital screen when the filter needs to be cleaned which is really efficient and ensures no suction is lost
– Comes with multiple nozzles to vacuum hard surfaces and smaller areas
– Apperance is attractive with its digital screen
Cons:
– Personally it would be a bonus if there were further colour options to select
– Tube could be expanded alittle more for the taller person
Overall, in terms of functionality, ease of use, batter power and its unique digital screen; it more than delivers compared to other cordless vacuums and would therefore recommend.
