Not a bad unit

published

Early days. Just got the unit last month. Pretty impressed with it so far. The vacuum has no issues with tipping over. The noise for the unit is pretty acceptable for the price. The cord length is fine too. Opening and closing the unit is straight forward and easy to do. The dust container could have been bigger. It is average

Not that great

published

Today the plastic handle snapped right off lucky I am still under warranty. suction ok, doesn’t pick up hair properly and the hair wraps around wheels and jams then really hard to clean. Very fiddly to remove and clean filters and hair and gunk from the vac head. One positive it’s a quite light unit. Would I buy again, no way. Hopefully I can get a refund as I will purchase a more expensive brand suppose you get what you pay for.

Good value for the money

published

This vacuum works well enough, i have owned much more expensive vacuum cleaners and do not think that they faired any better than this one. It needs to be emptied every second time it is used though otherwise it loses its suction power. It moves well and is a basic vacuum which does what it is supposed to the way that home brand flour or sugar does the same thing as the more expensive branded versions.

Does what it says

published

Purchased this product following issues with Dyson cordless stick vacuum and didn't want to spend $500 again (see my other review on this). Does everything it says on the box. Construction seems good quality and waste/dust chamber is really easy to empty in to the trash. One thing read the instructions and make sure you keep the sponge filter in the top of the waste chamber nice and clean and this will maintain good suction. Would have given it 5* but the cable length is a bit on the short side compared to some other models...... and extra 1metre would have done it for me. But at this price bracket I'd recommend this product.

Not bad - It OK very plain

published

This is an OK vacuum, nothing to write home about. It comes with few accessories but the wand and floor tools are decent enough quality. It starts well with good suction but definitely drops away as it fills with dust. My one stank a bit the first few times I used it but cleared up in time so it might be a good idea to start outside the first time. Over an "OK" rating

Good to start with

published

This vacuum started off quite good. I was very pleased with it at first but over time it revealed its inherent cheapness. It's not really a "cyclonic" vacuum at all. It's just a barrel with a filter on it so as it fills up, the new dust stacks onto the old dust and suction is reduced. I usually empty it around half full because it noticeably drops in power about then. Its cheap but you get what you pat for

Great for a budget powerful vacuume

published

Bought this to just vacuum bags but now having moved into my own place it's worked out well doing the entire house and cars it was a huge bargain than buying one of those pricey ones you see on TV that do it all when this one has done it all for us

Alright

published

It was a really good vacuum to start with on carpet and tiles it was perfect, after about the first month of using it was sucking as well. I still used it to clean out my partners and I cars and to do smaller areas. I only lived in a damn townhouse when I brought this

Very reasonable, does a great job

published

I am very happy with my purchase for the price. The vacuum did a tremendous cleaning job and was very quiet when compared to other products. After about a year of having it, it did overheat more often that it should have but hardly surprising for the price. It cleaned carpets and wooden flooring well.

Average on a good day

published

This is possibly the most generic vacuum I have ever used. Oddly it doesn't have any branding on it at all but it comes in a Kmart box. It looks quite good and performs in an absolutely average way. I notice that the suction tapers off quite quickly as it fills, so it's a better idea to empty it at around half full. The cord length is adequate and the wheels are actually pretty good. It was cheap but will it last? Time will tell.

Great cheap vacuum that dose its job

published

You couldn't ask for much when you pay for cheap items but this vacuum was a great buy. At first we only got it to clean a few rooms in our appartment but we moved into mums house and it dose a great job on her floors. Loads of suck power and cord is a nice length too

Good - passable not exceptional

published

This is an "OK" vacuum but good for the price. It has reasonable suction but that dies off quickly as it fills up, so you need to empty it regularly. Its quite zippy and easy to move around the house - has a decent sized cord and good handle. The wand is metal and the floor tool is again, quite good without being fantastic. I did find hair etc get jammed up in the rollers but easy to remove. Its all round a good deal but expect a passable, not exceptional machine

Good purchase

published

The suction is very effective for the price you're paying. If you want exceptional quality go to a vacuum specialist store. I've had no problems with it so far. The cord is more than adequate for a 2 bedroom house. Very easy to maneuver and clean out. I would recommend it

Very happy with the suction power, cleans well, level of noise is medium, easy to store, easy to put together, easy to empty and takes a few goes to get full, is very light, easy to maneuver around the house and corners, cord is very long easy to reach in various places around the house, I have a 5 bedroom house so we cover a large area with a double size living room, all bedrooms have carpets and have wood floors in toilets and walkways.

Well made but underpowered

published

This looked great out of the box - nice style and pretty solid. Its very basic and doesnt come with any extras except the information and warranty cards. Its got good 360 degree rollers on the bottom and the wand and tubes are good too/ All looks good EXCEPT.... the suction is kind of weak. Its OK - is ah at first then drops away quick the more you use use. Its cheap to buy but as they say "you get what you pay for"

Didn’t have great suction power as I thought it would of.

published

I got sucked into the hype on Facebook and bought one of these but the suction was terrible compared to my 12 year old Dyson. Would be great for someone moving out of home as it’s quite affordable. But for me I wanted more from my vacuum cleaner and ended up buying a Miele afterwards as my Dyson was on its last legs

Adequate simple vacuum

published

There is nothing particularly flash about this vacuum - it is a very utilitarian design but it does an honest job. You don't get a whole heap of accessories (none) other than the wand and floor head but they are both good quality and the wands are metal. The body is quite decent plastic and the barrel is very easy to pop out for emptying (a bit too easy actually) cord length is fine for normal sized rooms - no need to change powerpoints and suction power is well "average". It does the job but is no Dyson or Miele. Its perfectly ok for basic situations such as ours and I think the price is pretty fair,

Cheap and does a good job

published

This was cheap as anything - only $75 and it does a decent job. Its not the best ever, you need to be realistic at this price point but its definitely adequate. It is built to a price and missing certain things such as extra crevice tools and there is no way to control the power just off or on. It vacs well and is simple to empty. A very basic vacuum but perfectly OK

Very basic vacuum does the job

published

This kmart vacuum represent a very fair deal in my opinion. It is pretty basic - no fancy extras but it does work well although I would prefer a little it more power. The suction starts off OK but seems to fade as it fills up, so it needs regular emptying to keep the power up. The floor tools are agin, basic but adequate. and emptying the bin is pretty easy. Its a fair deal for the price!

Awesome

published

UPDATE : Oct 2018 ... this vacuum is still going strong and I love it.

Just purchased this 4 days ago and wow, the suction is great and easy to empty. I have both hard floors and carpet and by changing the head it was very easy to use. It comes with 2 attachments which I was hoping I could place on the machine to use when needed but there wasn’t a section. ( maybe something to look at )
Overall a great machine and great price.
