Not to bad!
This vacuum cleaner definitely does the job! I saw this one for a great price and snapped it up after moving into a new place. Amazing suction! the only fault, if I was to be not picky would be the cord retraction if there's any kink or the cord isn't being fed it can be a little tough to feed back in, but that's not an issue for me!

Excellent
I live in a one bed apartment with wooden floors and large rugs. The vac is easy to use and manoeuvre with a good pick up. Great that it is bagless, so easy to clean and empty. I would definitely recommend this machine to my friends and family. Good buy!

Good consistent performance
Very easy to use on tiles, wood, couch fabric and carpet. Great for dog hair too. Easy to empty. Very happy with this purchase. I have been using it for over 6 months now and it has performed consistently well over this period. Price was also very competitive so I am very happy overall.

Great Compact Vacuum
This is a great little vacuum. I found it's small size makes it easy to store and manoeuvre, but on the downside it fills up quite quickly and needs a lot of emptying. Does a good job on vacuuming hardwood floors and carpet. It's well built and durable. Definitely worth purchasing if you're looking for something small and reliable.

Very Good Dust And Pet Fur Extraction
Bought one of these 2 days ago after my 15 year old Nilfisk stopped working. First thing I noticed is great extraction of dust and cat fur from carpet! This quickly filled up the dust canister so I was emptying it every room. Now I'm guessing that such a frequency is due to my previous cleaner being marginal for the last few months - so way more than average dust and fur to collect. I'll monitor and see how/if that changes on next weeks vacuums.
The suction is very good - I'm running it with the dial on about 1/3 and there is *plenty* enough...Read more
at that level (and the noise is pleasantly muted at that setting too. Now I quickly noticed the phenomena that other reviews mention - after emptying the dust canister for the 2nd time the suction considerably decreased...so checked canister was fitted correctly - yep, hoses tight and not blocked - yep....scratched head a bit then looked at the foam cover on the HEPA filter - completely covered in cat fur - a quick wash and (not so quick) dry and we were back to exactly as new level of suction (phew). So this is something to watch, and it is on the inside of the canister - so need to remove the filter to see it). Obviously having to wash this guy every few rooms would be annoying - I'll monitor this too, but suspect that subsequent vacuums will not be picking up so much fur and so it will only need cleaning each month as the docs indicate! Things that could be improved - more robust fittings/pipes - larger nose wheel - Is the HEPA washable? (Massive confusion. The paper docs show only the foam is washable...but online manual http://download.p4c.philips.com/files/f/fc8671_01/fc8671_01_dfu_eng.pdf and the inner box flap say foam and HEPA are...Some clarity here would be nice)7 comments
