Vax VWC

I was terrified to read what other people had experienced with this vac. I bought it a year ago for $69 at Harvey Norman, used it weekly at my 1 bedroom unit.
It just works: not too noisy, lightweight, suction is reasonable, easy to clean the filters and empty the dust barrel.
Other people mentioned problems with wheels coming off, smell, burnt motor and so on.... l have not had any of that stuff (fingers crossed).

Terrible product I have timber floors so only needed a vac for at least once every 6 weeks as always used the broom. It blew up this morning despite filters cleaned every time it has been used. Do not buy it will not last. Unfortunately as i dont use often also out of Warranty suprise suprise.

I recently purchased this vacuum to replace my Phillips vacuum. I find the VAX one to have more sucking power, it was cheaper and the wheel didn't fall off on the first use. Its easy to empty and stores away neatly. The filters are also very easy to clean. Great value.

Suction is great but I cant stop the wheel filter cover from popping off.Does anybody know why it is doing this? I event turned it down onto a lower speed.I also noticed it heats up really fast.Easy to clean .Do wish the cord was also a little longer.Use it on mainly floor boards.

Worst vacuum I’ve ever had. Needs cleaned after every use which involves emptying multiple chambers - very dirty. Getting a burning smell when in use and now I’ve read these reviews I’m afraid it’s going to spontaneously combust. Don’t waste your money this is a poorly designed product, spend more and get one that works.

This vacuum cleaner is not subjected to heavy use but it is in a house with young students. Was working really well until the wheel fell off! I didn't find it as noisy as some of the other Reviewers and I'm thinking there could be a problem with a particular batch. Seems to have good suction and it's easy to manoeuvre. The hose is a little too long in that which can make it a little hard to manage at times. Overall worth the money but only if I get the wheel replaced or get a new vacuum cleaner!!

Bought this from Harvey Norman at a really good deal (less than $150 if i'm not wrong) and it's working wonderful.
It's so powerful and so easy to clean!
On a side note, it looks good too!
It's also really light so makes the job pretty easy when you're vacuuming the entire house.

Vax VWC 2000W bagless vacuum is something not wasting your money on. The only thing that is good about it is that it looks good. The suction is fine at 2000W. It's not very noisy nor is it quiet. It's hard to maneuver, very hard to clean the dirt barrel - it involves a few steps to empty the barrel. A generic ordinary vacuum just involves taking the barrel, opening the lid and emptying it, but not this one. The suction hose and the beginning of the barrel is curved on the inside, so dirt gets stuck easily. It clean carpeted and hardwood areas. I have some 5-6 rooms to clean, so maneuvering should have been easy. Overall, for the price it offers nothing more, in fact, usability is bad. Avoid this one.

The side cover kept falling off when vacuuming and today the vacuum cleaner caught fire where the cover used to be!! Luckily I was vacuuming tiles and not carpet. Replacing the lid after removing it for cleaning was my partner's job as I could not do it. It is very loud but for $89 it was ok for my small unit ... until today when it caught fire.

This is not a bad vaccum but i feel its only good for hard surfaced areas. I have floor boards and tiles and also carpet but it doesnt work.as good on the carpet as i would like.
This is very quiet and light and easy to put away.
For the price we paid not a bad vacuum but wont buy again

Bought this at Target for $99 after our rechargeable stick vacuum failed. Only read the reviews afterwards, so was a bit concerned. So far we have had no problems, and it does a reasonable job everywhere we use it (hard floors, bedroom carpets, and outdoor carpet on our deck). After having two rechargeables fail, and new ones costing an arm and a leg and most needing an ugly recharge station, we decided to give this little unit a go. Only real complaint, is as others have said, it is very loud. We do not use it for a great length of time and so far, have not had it overheat or fail. If it keeps going it will be good value.

Thought Vax would be a reputable brand & seemed like a bargain for $99 at Target... well I thought wrong.
First off- it is so loud, like consider wearing ear muffs. Suction started ok but then deteriorated which wasn't helpful in picking up dirt let alone dog hair. And then the motor blew! I only have a 1br flat so it was hardly working overtime.
I don't really rate their customer service & the repair centres are inconveniently located. I didn't feel it was worth my while bothering for a 4 month old vacuum.
Bought a new vac with turbo pet hair heads from Kmart for the same price & it is 100 times better.

Can't even put the lid back on after cleaning out filters? Impossible going to have buy a decent one that I can at least put the top back on ...
Who designed to make cleaning even more drugery I twist it up down all around I give up seriously had enough

Im happy with the performance but it could improve on the suction its fairly heavy but still easy to use ive used this in my house and to vaccum out my car theres better vaccums out there but for the price it works great amd will get the job done easily

It is a $99 worth of vacuum, its suck a lot of dust like its said and do what its supposed to, its bagless so it is very easy to clean, just open the bottom, great look, easy manuver, good value for money I guess if you dont have pet.
