Rubbish

published

After 6 months suction is non existent. Impossible to remove hair from it too. Don't waste your money. It just pushes dirt around the floor now. Also it doesn't stand by itself.

Purchased for $350.00.

Good for 6 months

published

This vacuum is good for 6 months, you will LOVE IT! But after the honeymoon period it starts making grinding noises, spits out particles, looses suction, and doesn't charge. If you need something for occasional spot cleaning, then go for it. But any further than that, then grab a $50 kmart vaccum.

Purchased in December 2021 at eBay for $300.00.

Good stick vacuum but designed to fail

published

I have owned the Vax Blade for a bit more than a year. The performance is decent and good for picking up fine dust and pet fur. However, the powerhead stopped working intermittently after a few months of ownership. I investigated the issue with an electrician friend and found that one of the thin wires to the brush motor broke due to constant twisting and rubbing from daily use. Also, the filters like to clog up due to the small canister capacity as the cyclonic action is lost from dust buildup.



This is a poor design for a $250 product with a 2 year warranty.

Purchased in October 2021 at Harvey Norman Appliances Physical Store for $250.00.

Love it

published

Very happy with how versatile this is. Dont miss having a plug in vacuum. Great for in the car too. Top is little bit weighty but I knew this before purchase and doesnt bother me. Fittings are tight but you get used to them. Dont regret my purchase.

Purchased in March 2021 at Bunnings Warehouse for $499.00.

Better than Dyson!

published

I replaced my Dyson handheld with this vax blade and I love it! I use it on tiles and my rug - it works great on both surfaces. It’s very powerful and also has an additional function of more power and you can control if you want to turn the spin section off (something you can’t do with Dyson) this is my favourite feature as it means less tangled hair! Love and def recommend it. It is a little bulky/heavy to hold but I don’t mind it.

My new best friend!

published

This vacuum works well on both my tiles and carpet. The swivel head gets into all the hard places and also lies flat to reach under furniture. Battery life is great and lasts long enough to do my 3bed 2 bath house, and is light and compact enough to wip out for a quick clean up after the kids.

Very disappointing

published

The only positive I found was that it’s cordless. The motor is not powerful and doesn’t clean up any pet fur or hair from the carpet or tiles. Very disappointed. Could have done better with the price you pay for the vacuum

Not 100% impressed

published

The suction isn't that great and the wheel inside the vacumn head gets stuck with hair and no way to remove and clean it. Definitely not good for households with girls that have long hair. It's ok for a small room, but awkward to use on the whole house.

Purchased in February 2021 at Flybuys gift redemtion.

Great Vacuum

published

This has proved to be a great stick vacuum on both tile and carpets. Perfect for running over the house daily. Collects all the fine dust and larger rubbish completely. Easy to empty and clean and good battery life, usually up to four days. Robust construction should ensure long life and spare filter sets are well priced, purchased to allow plenty of drying time with daily usage. Filters only need to be washed occasionally.
Highly recommend unit.

Really good for the price

published

I'm surprised how good it is especially for the price. It has very good suction power and rotating brush is really helpful getting the fur and hair out of the carpet. Only downside is the bin is very small so you have to empty it every 10 minutes or so. This is a really vacuum cleaner if you're living in a small apartment.

Very Handy but not a Dyson

published

I bought this several months ago when there was a special deal going of extra tools. The one issue I have is that although the power head is handy it tends to get long hair caught in it that eventually blocks it. This is removable on the Dyson. The battery life is great however and these tend to be available at discounted prices.

AMAZING Vax Blade excellent performance for a stick vacuum

published

Vax Blade wow I love it we went shopping for a Dyson but they where way to expensive at the time, so the sales reps recommended the vax blade and I don’t regret not one bit in buying it.. for something so small and everyday use it has a lot of power.. not only do I do my carpets I also do my tiles and my curtains and lounge and of course my car.. it is very easy to clean and being cordless it is fantastic.. if I had to recommend a stick vacuum it would most definitely be the VAX BLADE VX60 I’m one happy housewife ....

Our First Cordless Vacuum

published

This is our first vacuum cleaner without cord and we were very impressed with the power and the ease of use. It can conveniently be used at any time, on any surface and stored easily. We use this for both carpet and floorboard surfaces as well as to vacuum the car. The battery stands for quite a long time which allows us to clean the whole house through one charge.

Absolutely love it

published

I use it on hard floor without engaging the brush, it work so well. I do have one room with carpet and it works well there too. Being on a charger it is so easy and convenient, actually quicker and easier than using a broom, brush and tray. Easy to empty and clean. Great value.
