Panasonic MCE4055 Upright

Advantages: easy to clean
Disadvantages: none

...I have three dogs and a cat so a good vacuum cleaner is an absolute must for me. I have tried many different brands of cleaner over the years but I must say the Panasonic is great. It is a nice dark blue colour, lightweight and cost only £120 from Comet. The main thing I like about this cleaner is the fact that it comes to pieces easily and can be cleaned with ease. The filters are all supposed to last for the life-time of the cleaner but I found that was not the case, I had to replace my filters after about 6 months which cost me £18. All the onboard tools are stored at the back of the cleaner and are very easy to access. The suction is fantastic and picks up dust, dog hairs and all the rest of the rubbish that accumulates on the floors and carpets. The crevice tool is great for attacking the larger cobwebs that lurk in the corners... Read review

Advantages: Light
Disadvantages: Lots and Lots

...Now I know what your thinking, a bag-less upright hoover for less than £100, BARGAIN ! ! But don't be fooled my friends. After my Dyson hoover died from overheating last year I decided to buy the MCE4113 because it claimed to do everything the old Dyson did for around a 1/3 of the price, also I was told Panasonics don't overheat like Dysons. Unfortunately it wasn't happy days after my purchase. Here is a few problems I have with the Panasonic upright: 1) The wand easily gets clogged, the wand has a very tight bend at the base of the hoover, even small debris easily clog it. 2) The filters get clogged, nearly every time I use it, you can hear when the filters get clogged as you can hear the motor noise change to a higher pitch. 3) As a result of the filters getting clogged the suction drops dramatically. 4) Emptying the hoover...

Advantages: Lightweight ,strong suction and bagless.
Disadvantages: None.

...I bought this vacuum 3 month's ago mainly because of the Patented Panasonic Bagless System and also for the powerful 1400 watt motor. I'm very happy with the performance and the up to date look. The body is a light grey with the big capacity dust container being a fluorescent blue colour, it's also very lightweight and easy to move around. The vacuum comes complete with >>> Suction hose measuring 2 metres long. 2 chrome metal extension wands measuring 1 metre together which attach to the suction hose. The floor nozzle that works well on hard floors or carpets, with a filck of the switch the brushes can be lowered or retracted. 2 onboard tools being the crevice tool and the dusting brush, The crevice tool is great for getting into hard to reach places such as...behind the radiators and down the sides of the sofa...
