Was happy with vacuum. After sales service terrible. Emailed to find out about new filters, not in stock finally after 3 months can get one at $25, cannot say when the one in wheel will be available. Told me to try Godfreys, off course they don't have anything that will fit. So now will have to buy another vacuum, will not look at Aldi's again.

Some good deals were up for grab and i decided to purchase this vacuum cleaner from Aldi which came with additional mini vac which worked out cheaper. So the dealer decided to provide bonus item since the product was new in the market. The suction power is so strong till today. I dont think i need branded items, sometimes other market products works better.

Started out a great little vacuum,used on carpet and slate floors,easy to empty and clean,requires no bags,which is a big saving.
I recommended this cleaner to friends,well it's been twelve months and the vacuum seems to have had its day,still works but the suction is miserable.Cleaned it but to no avail,seems 12 months is all you get but for $99 what do you expect!

The suction is poor. probably ok for hard floor, but not good for carpet. The length of the rod may not be long enough for adult. The material is of poor quality. But for this price, you can't expect too much. it may be used as spare and for temporary use.

Wasn't expecting much for the price of this vacuum and it didn't disappoint.
The suction doesn't last long, maybe a few uses before it renders itself pretty useless.
I own a dyson handheld which is brilliant on hard floors so the Aldi vacuum was purchased for carpeted bedrooms...the stick vac does a better job!
Wouldn't waste your money.

It is light. But the rod isn't long enough though I am already short. Sucking is OK. I only used it for wooden floor. Not sure about carpet. My house is small. But do find the wire is much shorter than my previous one. Overall, I am happy with the purchase.

At the price point it was hard to beat as it comes with a 3 or 5 year warranty. The suction power is superb and really grabs a lot of stuff when combined with a Vax turbo brush. Sadly this suction power is short lived as the HEPA filter begins to clog up rapidly with fine dust particles. The only way to clean it is to... get another vacuum cleaner or wash it under a blasting tap. It makes the whole chore of vacuuming even more of a chore. I wouldn't recommend this vacuum cleaner.

This vacuum has poor suction and clogs frequently in barrel due to poor design. It might be cheap but it is just a waste of money and also time due to frequent unclogging. I am going out to buy something more powerful - don't care how much I have to pay!

Paid about $100 for this vacuum and haven't looked back since. Easy to use, has a long cord. Has a great suction on it, very strong. Moves around on wheels no problem. It does need emptying every time you use it, but it's fantastic. Got my money's worth for sure!

September 19th 2017 Update: Cyclonic Vacuum Cleaner

I have had this vacuum cleaner for over a year now and still love it. I must admit, it doesn't glide over the floor when pulling it but it's been fine. The suck starts to get bad after a while of using and I have to do a full clean of it (including washing the sponge etc in the filter) and after that, it runs well again. I'm especially happy with the price I paid for it!

Bought this as a dust extractor for spacking gyprock & sanding with random orbital - very fine dust that would kill most vacuum cleaners - but not this one - it's still going as strong as the day I bought it.
Use it also on a mitre saw but the sucking power was not quite strong enough.
I do clean it out doors with a needle gun.

I paid a lot of money for a piece of junk, it started to work intermittently after only 3 hours of use! I should have stuck to the top brands in vacuums, instead of risking in buying one from Aldi, I just sure hope they give me a refund, as I've lost my receipt.

I thought I would give a cheaper vacuum cleaner a try after several more expensive ones,. but sadly I have been let down again. The wheel just snapped off from the front bottom of the cleaner so the cleaner is completely useless now, as I don't have my receipt I feel I cannot return it even though it looks brand-new as I have not had it long.
Very disappointed

I expected very little given the $100 price tag but this vaccum just kept charging. When suction dropped off it just required a good filter clean and was back to 100%. We even used it to clean a construction site for 8 months. I would love to find another onebut feara similar priced vaccum wont deliver the same way.

Used the Stirling 2000w vacuum cleaner for the first time today in my caravan on carpet and Lino. Best buy I've had in a long time. Suction great. I couldn't believe the amount of sand it picked up. I have a Dyson at home and it is far easier to empty barrel in this one. Very happy with my buy.
