VAX V91-P3 Power 3

Vax U91-P3: A Simple but Efficient Cleaner

Advantages: A great cleaner with no unwanted frills.
Disadvantages: None so far.

Due to constant problems with a recently purchased Hoover vacuum cleaner, we decided to forget it and opt for a Vax Power 3 ? a small and light vacuum cleaner without any of the bells and whistles that seemed to be on most other more expensive makes. This machine is easy and light to use for my wife who suffers from arthritis and when I think carefully about vacuum cleaners, I have to ask myself who uses these extra funny attachments like turbo brushes as I have never found that they work at all. In fact, I have found that standard non-moving attachments do a much better job. We owned one of those orange Vax Aqua Vacs back in the 1980s (remember them?) and even now it is still working as well as ever but we prefer an upright vac. I keep the Aqua Vac in the garage to clean my car with ? it is great for sucking up water too. So ...

Review of VAX U91-P3P Power 3 PET

Vax 6130

Advantages: It cleans well, good suction
Disadvantages: doesn't sit on the stairs! It has bags

and replaced them with wood laminate. I happily ?hoover? them with the Vax. I wouldn?t risk the Dyson! There is the usual range of onboard tools for vacuuming- a nozzle (crevice tool) a soft brush, etc. These are very useful for intricate jobs. On my original Vax the tools used to get wedged on to the wand and it was a dickens of a job to remove them. I therefore used the tools with trepidation. I need not have worried; they seem to have ironed out that little problem. So, what about washing carpets? Nice and easy! You remove the dust bag and add the extra tank for holding the clean water. The tank is then filled with a capful of special 3-in-1 shampoo, any make will do. Top it up to the maximum mark with warm water. Put the motor back on, attach the spiral hose, which is very quick and away you go! On the cleaning head there is a removable ...

Review of VAX 6131

The Power of 3 compells you!

Advantages: Works the whole body, fun, well instructed,
Disadvantages: Only if you don't like Davina, legs section is HARD!

In my recent quest to lose weight and get fitter I've become something of a workout DVD addict! I've now worked my way through all of Davina's output, sampled Charlie Brooks and now moving onto Nell McAndrew (only for the brave!) But Davina's are so far my favourite, with her Super Body Workout topping my list, but the Power of 3 coming a close second. The Power of 3 was Davina's first DVD and is just over an hour long, moving through 3 different sections - legs, arms, and abs. It uses interval training to get the heart rate up before performing different exercises intended to tone up the muscles and lose the flab. If you've used the Super Sculpt on Super Body you'll be familiar with interval training and for me, this is a great way to work out as I hate being too out of breath. Leading Davina (and you!) through the workout are Jackie ...
