VAX V 033 Rapide Compact

Vax Rapide carpet cleaner

Advantages: Quick and value for money
Disadvantages: noise, weight

Vax Rapide Deluxe V-026 **Introduction** I bought this carpet cleaner 3 months ago after looking at various models but mainly just Vax and Bissell brands. I'd heard very good reports from friends about both brands, most people said that the carpets 'came up as new' so I decided to take the plunge and buy the middle of the range model from Vax. After shopping around I decided to buy the Vax Rapide Deluxe model for £94 + VAT and delivery from www.goshopdirect.co.uk, this included paying an extra £7 for next day delivery, I believe their normal delivery time is around 7-10 days. I was very impressed with the service from goshopdirect and the hoover arrived via courier on the given delivery date. After researching a few different carpet cleaners I chose the Rapide Deluxe because it has a twin motor setup, compared to cheaper models ...

Review of VAX V 026 Rapide Deluxe

Vax - rewriting the definition of "deluxe"

Advantages: It cleans what it is supposed to
Disadvantages: Poor design and quality

I've owned this carpet cleaner with upholstery attachment for nearly exactly two years, when purchased it was on offer at £69.99, currently £81.74 (RRP £149.99)at amazon. The first and probably most important thing I would say about this cleaner is don't pay £149.99 or you may be disappointed. At a lower price this cleaner was a good alternative to me to hiring a carpet cleaner - at the time I was moving out of a rental house and into my own house and so wanted to clean all the carptets myself, and this as I shall explain, the cleaner was able to do successfully, though I have a few reservations about this product, even at a lower price.

Review of VAX V 026 Rapide Deluxe

vax v 027 rapide xl

Advantages: clean carpets
Disadvantages: have to refill alot if you are cleaning a large room.

Expecting many great things from vax as i had owned and cherished a vax previous to owning this one, i was led to be a little bit disappointed to be honest as it didn't quite live up to my expections. First of all it didn't hold much water, great i thought it wont be as heavey as my old one when i try to maunover it around my living room but after the third trip to the sink with both of the containers to empty and refill i was getting annoyed. Secondly i didnt expect the water to leak as much as it did when i left the vax standing in one place it soaked my carpet however fast i tried to empty and refill the containers. However failing the two things mentioned above it does do its job and is great at removing stains from your carpet but to be frank i wouldn't consider buying one of these again. I do much prefer the cydinler ...
