Philips FC6144 / 01 Mini Vac (without bag, 7.2V NiMH battery, 2-stage) red / white (household goods)

Customer Review

I bought the Philips FC 6144 in order to clean for example my sofa and Eßzimmerstühle and my car can, without having to resort to the large vacuum cleaner.

All in all, I can say that I am satisfied with the device. The suction power is very good and visible cleaning effect. The vacuum cleaner is also supplied with two essays: a crevice nozzle for crevices and corners as well as a brush for sofas, fabrics and delicate surfaces. Both are easy to use and serve their purpose well.

Despite these advantages, the device also has a few - in my opinion - crucial disadvantages.

Number one: the battery performance. When fully charged keeps the Philips with me in continuous operation for about 6 to 8 minutes, then the juice is all and the unit must be recharged. For my taste, this is an uncomfortable short time. The sucking of my car with a cargo works just so long as I only quickly treat any area and do not waste time. With sofas and the like, it is due to the smaller "size" of the object better, but again, it sucks enormous that after 2 or 3 times vigorous sucking the teat again should the mains. Maybe I caught a Monday production, but for my taste, this battery life is far too low.

Drawback number two: the charging station can not be readily once it has been mounted on a wall, detached and taken. To mount a flap on the back of the station must be removed. This is then screwed to the wall and the remaining station is mounted again on the flap. Too bad, because you could take the cradle, charging the sucker would eg. In the garage possible. But if the device can be charged only at a single location.

Drawback number three: the essays can indeed be easily mounted but remove only with a lot of pulling and fingernail game. A 'snap, where you can unlock the essays by "button" and remove it would have been much better here.

Four drawback: I find the device very loud. Although many large commercial vacuum cleaners are loud, but not essential. From such a small handheld vacuum cleaner I would have liked a little less "noise". But okay.

All in all, therefore, the Philips-sucker a very good and effective device whose good impression but is marred by the above-mentioned disadvantages. For this there are 1 star deduction.

Therefore: 4 stars.
