This is an excellent vacuum cleaner when it works. This is where the problem lies. It breaks down approximately every three months and requires replacing...which means taking a day off work to be at home for the delivery of the new unit and return of the old. I purchased back in 2016 and am on unit number 4...all under warranty. The fault is that the unit reaches a point where it starts to constantly cut out. This could be from the head unit wiring coming loose or the handle on off switch which seems to be just as temperamental. Any way...as I said, when working I couldn’t wish for a better vacuum. Powerful, versatile and with very easy filters to clean and maintain. but then it breaks again. I'll leave the decision u up to you.

From the very first day we loved it, best stick vacuum ever, but as soon as the 2 year warranty came up, the battery started to last less and less. It's now been nearly another year and the battery only lasts about 5 minutes. Also there is a rattle in the handle, sometimes the machine stops dead, but you can restart it with a little shake, maybe a loose connection? Very disappointed that Bosch has not lasted the distance. We have a house full of Bosch appliances and this one won't be replaced with another Bosch.

I wanted a vacuum cleaner that I could use for both home and car. Bosch Athlet Zoo is that! I can easily clean my house and clean my car with it. it has a good battery life too.
This vacuum cleaner produces the highest amount of suction amongst similar vacuums.

Great product as I hate vac cleaners with cords. This is lightweight to use and easy to clean hardfloors as well.
Fairly quick to charge but the key is to keep is super clean. I clean the device and the holders after each vacumm. Make sure you clean the floor brush as well.

After my dyson dying on me we decided to give this a go and I'm very happy we did! We have 2 cats that constantly shed fur alover my floor and this picks it up better then any other vacuum ive ever owned. Comes with different nozzle attachments too. The only thing I'm nt a fan of is the retractable cord as I find it pull out of the wall quite oven.

The Bosch cordless Vac has been very impressive to date. I was skeptical at first but the features on this machine prove worthy of a review. Great suction and easy to use. Yes, a bit heavy to lift sometimes but I'm not bothered as it gives me a good workout! Easy to empty and effective on all surface areas. I would have rated it excellent, but cleaning the bristles is not easy; the bristle head does not come off easily and so I chose not to take it off, instead removing caught up hair by hand. I have also bought the bag less Bosch Vac and it it also very good.

We have an indoor dog and the Bosch pro-animal vacuum cleaner is perfect. It has great suction, cord free, easy to charge and picks up dust, dirt and animal hair really well. We have tiles and carpet but it also worked well on our timber floors. The dirt chamber is easy to remove and empty and the filter is easy easy to clean we've had ours for 2 years now with no issues. It also transforms to a backpack with a small nossle and brushes for vacuuming the car and tight spaces.

This upright vacuum delivered as promised. As good as the best-advertised competitors, half the price of the very expensive ones, battery last long, good suction, lots of attachment for different purposes, easy to put together, smart looking and works like a pro. I can't live without it. Yes I like it and Recommend it

I was persuaded into buying a Bosh instead of a Dyson.
I was told by the salesman at Harvey Norman not to leave the machine on charge as it will kill the battery.
When I got home I bathed the machine and then put it away, I used it the following day and the battery died after 5 minutes!
I thought I hadn’t charged it enough so I placed it on charge again untill fully charged and the same thing happen the machine died after about 5 minutes!

Apparently the battery isn’t covered under warranty but this was faulty the first day I got it! Very disappointed especially after spending a fortune!

Recently bought this stick vacuum and wow am I impressed with the suction! It is better than my corded upright!
Not only great suction on wood floors and carpets but it’s quiet too.
The head manoeuverabilty is amazing and though it is not very easy to push on thick carpet that’s only because it is sucking every bit of dust and dirt out! Love it!

We bought ours in March 2017. The handle snapped whilst being used after 3 WEEKS - Curry’s didn’t want to know, Bosch didn’t want to know. Eventually because we were so pushy, Curry's eventually ‘gave in’ & fixed it.
We binned it in November as it was so rubbish. I wouldn’t buy Bosch anything, ever again.
Utter garbage. Spent a bit more, bought a Dyson - it is fantastic!!!

What can I say? This vacuum has it all! We got the full kit with it, including the turbo head. We were amazed how dirty our carpets actually were! Easy to move the vacuum around furniture, has a retractable cord. Even my 9yo can use it easily. Self clean feature is an awesome bonus too. Highly recommend this vacuum!!!

I just love the portability & suction power of this vac. It's a very handy tool. With fully charged motor I can vac my whole house and the car and it would still have plenty of charge left for another spot vac. Has powerful suction. Easy to clean. To maintain suction at its best, I would recommend cleaning the filter every 2 months.

July 11th 2018 Update: I was totally wrong

I loved the vacuum when I purchased it. Great suction and easy to use. But oh boy, Bosch is NOT invested for life. Not even to last at least 3 years.! I will be looking at ACCC to see if something can be done. My whole perspective changed about Bosch & now I do not recommend anyone with this vacuum..be careful.
