Vax TBTTV1T1 Cordless SlimVac 22.2 V Total Home Vacuum Cleaner with Vax Genuine SlimVac Pro Kit

I bought this because I needed a lightweight, compact vacuum cleaner that I can quickly and easily wizz round the house with, and this is exactly what I got! I can clean all of my carpets, hard floors, and high up areas such as my blinds and curtains etc, with just 1 full charge of my new favorite gadget! The charge lasts around 25 minutes before it starts to lose power, and I find this more than enough to vacuum upstairs, downstairs and all the nooks and cranny's. It is incredibly easy to use, all the different attachments simply clip on and off smoothly meaning you can switch from handheld to full size in 2 seconds, and the lightweight design means you can use up high and down low without getting tired. I find the suction really powerful, despite what some of the reviews say my vacuum seems to pick up all dust and bits off my thick carpet. The appearance is sleek and stylish too, the rose gold is a lovely touch and it is so neat and compact on the holder that attaches to the wall too. It's really easy to empty out the dust compartment, and to clean the filter and roller brushes too. The instructions are really clear and straightforward, so you can't go too far wrong. I would really recommend buying this whilst the price is so low!

Overall I think this vacuum is good. However it is nowhere near as powerful as my old drag a long vax. I am glad I have kept this as I still get this out every month for a really good hoover. This one is good for small spillages, the car and doing a quick hoover. It's great at going round my whole place on one charge maybe even twice (3 bed flat). However I don't think the suction is as strong and it struggles on some things and other times I feel the carpet just isn't being cleaned thoroughly. I can see it is working as the amount of dust and debris which is in the cylinder is very obvious. I maybe would have gone for a dyson just because of the brand, however these are twice the price (I got this is black Friday sales).

I am disabled so really need a cordless hoover and this one is light to carry but the dust container soon fills up around the filter & get blocked. You simply cannot just empty this with a tap as it is too thin an area & I have to use a knife to move it. This has to be done very often otherwise all is blocked up at the top and nothing is hovered. On top of this it just doesn't like tiny stones, grit, you can hear it rattling up the tube but as soon as you put the end to rest it all falls out again so a complete waste of time. I used to have a Dyson but my husband was fed up with having to keep fixing that so we thought we would have a change but a afraid did not pick wisely in this case. Charges well, lightweight yes, suction well no, function well, no not great would not recommend.

It is so light and easy to use but very little suction it is no good for cleaning car or going round edge of rooms. I read reviews before buying they made it sound great ,which it is not

This is great for keeping the floors constantly clean as it is so convenient to just grab and touch-up a bit. The unit runs for over 20 minutes on full charge, which is more than enough to quickly do a few small rooms, and with the charge time being relatively short one can also choose to do each room more thoroughly and simply spread the work over a few charges if desired. While it isn't brilliantly powerful, it is more than adequate and does a good job. Unless you have very hairy pets I don't believe any more power is necessary.

Before buying this Vax I read a lot of reviews and compared prices of cordless vacuums, this sounded best for the price and had the best/most helpful reviews. I brought this on a Black Friday offer for £120 but returned it after less than a month.Main reasons for returning it: weak suction, poor performance, bad quality, kept getting blocked, dust/dirt gets stuck around filter, constantly emptying the container by hand (literally!), battery life inadequate, heavier than anticipated. For the price, even at the offer price I paid....a rip off!! Cordless vacuums are a great new product but too early into production to be any good.Detailed reasons:The types of things I am trying to vacuum up are usual dust, hair, carpet fibre, cat biscuits and little leaves from household plants etc, not big bits of lego or anything like that. If the bits you are trying to vacuum actually make it into the container section, instead of being spat out or stuck in the valve (before the container) then you'll probably find it gets caught around the top filter section of the container. This means that when you press the button to release the bottom of the container to empty it very little comes out and instead you will need to get your finger or a teaspoon and manually empty the container, getting whatever you've managed to vacuum up over your hands! This happens even before the container is full, more often than not it can't fill up because this blocks the way! If the bits you are trying to vacuum don't make it into the container you'll find out when you turn the machine off and bits fall back out the tube or get spat out of the powered head tool.The heads/tools that click onto the end feel quite loose, they rattle around a bit and don't feel like they would last long. The 'steerable technology' is only available on one of the heads, the powered one, which when using the vacuum with the extender tube is great but without it, impossible! Trying to clean the stairs with the powered head and no extender tube is pointless, it's like it's drunk, it won't go where you want it to.The extender tube isn't adjustable, which I knew before I brought it but hadn't realised how annoying it would be when using it in the house & car. Sometimes it's too long, for example, in the car but without it the machine is too bulky and the thin head/tool can't get down the sides of your seats because the machine gets in the way. Similarly, on the stairs, the extender tube is too long, without it you're on your hands and knees, there's no compromise.One review said that you can get right up close to cupboards and skirting boards etc with it and yes you can but it won't pick up the dust or dirt, it'll just act as a brush and sweep it along or ignore it altogether!The battery life is okay, same as most on the market but it does mean than you vacuum in a bit of a panic and don't get to give your house a full thorough clean. I read reviews about people managing to vacuum their 3 bedroom house before the battery runs out, I'm questioning how thoroughly they clean! There's no way you can give a good vacuum to a 3 bedroom house on one battery charge!Finally, it felt heavier than I expected, I looked at the weight before buying and obviously thought it's fine, I can easily lift that but lifting the weight and actually holding it for 25 mins and maneuvering it around is a different thing. I didn't find the handle very comfortable and twisting and turning the machine put a strain on my wrist, not painful but uncomfortable, if the battery lasted any longer I think my hand/wrist would have given up anyway!Obviously these are only my experiences and opinions on the vacuum, it's a good idea but it needs a few models rolled out to develop the concepts and actually make them user friendly.
