2. The strengths and weaknesses of the cleaner.
2.1. Highlights.
The first is its low price.
The second is its relatively low weight
The third is its efficiency.
Given its advertised power 800w I thought it might be a bit tight for a household thoroughly. But from the first use I was pleasantly surprised that it was as effective as my Rowenta vacuum cleaner. In fact you must not rely on electrical power because the latter does not exceed 900w a recent standard. So manufacturers have been forced to improve the devices so that they consume less while remaining as effective.
Most surprising to me is that, as regards the effectiveness, I do not see any significant difference between the vacuum cleaner Rowenta sleigh class B and the class C vacuum
I also said that I had a little prevention against a bagless vacuum cleaner to a household in general, because for this purpose I have experienced such a powerful vacuum that I abandoned due to safety that put the oversized stopped after a few minutes of use when the reservoir was far from full.
To determine whether or not this vacuum has the same irritating behavior I tested for use which I had not had destined a priori, ie a household in general: cleaning a garden shed full of dust and debris . Again I was pleasantly surprised to find that the cleaner was working normally until the reservoir filling up said. After emptying the tank and clean it and filter, operation continues normally.
The fourth highlight is the correct equipment, namely a main accessory 2 position (hard floor and carpet) and a 3-position accessory: a position for corners, one for chairs and the third brush for furniture which can also be used for cleaning filters.
For storing the hose has an element for receiving snap the accessory 3-position, and the body of the device has a slot which receives a hook of the main accessory.
Finally a foam replacement filter comes with the device.
2.2. Weaknesses.
Given the price it almost goes without saying that, in other areas as efficiency and low weight, this device is less efficient than the more expensive vacuum cleaners. Thus the body of the appliance does not inspire, at first glance, not an absolute confidence in its strength, and the hose seems a little less easily manipulated than on other devices.
The point that bothered me the most is the snap of the flexible body of the device: if we do not present it properly goes wrong and it takes a little force to remove it and put it back. Similarly, the separation of the hose of the device is not always simple.
Furthermore, the telescopic pipe is simply fitted to the butt of the flexible non-blocking means. It is the same for the assembly of accessories to the telescopic pipe. But I was not really bothered by this lack of blocking means.
I also noted that the operation of this device is not as quiet as that of a vacuum cleaner Rowenta. But, again, you can not ask an entry level equipment to be provided as well as a high-end device.
3. Overall I think the benefits (cost and effectiveness) outweigh the disadvantages, which explains the "note" (4 stars) that I attribute.
