I have had this cleaner now over 9 months and now having just had to empty it yet again, it has moved me to comment!! The cleaner itself works fine, it has a business like head and apparent flexibility. However the size of the head prevents getting into awkward corners and tight spaces, it could easily be more compact. That said the suction power and head configuration is effective in picking up household dust and dirt.

It is a little lumbering to trail behind you, preferring straight lines to the reality of dodging around furniture.

However its the bagless aspect which is most frustrating. Whilst a dirt trap and a filter may seem appealing (and even spare filters are supplied with the cleaner), the removal and clean up of same is a work up in itself. The pictures show just rinsing said filter under the tap. In your dreams.......much more vigorous sloshing and water everywhere is the truth. This needs to considered against the cost and convenience of just throwing away a paper sac.

Otherwise the cleaner is well made, easy on the eye and performs as well as many at a budget price.

I can't use this kind of hoover as it requires too much bending - lyn x

I need a new vacume cleaner as the suction on my current one sucks !!. I can't decide though whether to stay with the bags or go bagless.
