I had a classic sled vacuum cleaner, a small Bosh (not to name the brand) which suited me because not too bulky, effective and robust ... and frankly more I was not for torp "bagless" thinking it did not aspire well ... So when I had the Philips I was frankly reluctant ... and actually ... actually I adooooooooore this vacuum: - Already the cable is really happiness: if I plug in the right place I no longer need to change 3 times taken (what I did with the old one) and it really is fun ... - Then the handles: super convenient !!! suddenly I wear it for vacuuming the stairs, the handling is so easy ... - The bagless also side ultimately is nickel: the suction power is impressive: I compared my Bosh nothing to do everything at once sucked ... but it's also had a lot the brushes which just leads me to the next point ... - Brushes: good both brushes are super practical (I do not even know which I prefer every time I have a hard time knowing which to take so the 2 are good): the flat is convenient because going well under furniture and one I love at the same time it makes the baseboard and then "washing" finally she rubs enough to remove small traces on the ground after being sucked ... Frankly it seems to have at the same time spent a dry mop (so it removes even the smallest traces what) short it is a lot cleaner ... really they are great! - Noise: I read qq'un share qq'un which was noisy but me instead if I compare with my old vacuum cleaner (always the Bosch for those that followed) ben nothing to do ....: before if I aspi from the bottom while my son slept upstairs he was awake for sure .... now I can spend calmly, even in high (but not in his room anyway) and while he sleeps no worries he will not wake up ...) - The ease with which instruments fit together: to empty the vacuum cleaner for example it's super easy to recover, to change brush in short I love is very intuitive ... The only negatives in my opinion: the two small parts that cling to the pipe in fact it is not very practical (it would be better to fasten them on the cleaner directly) because when one aspires the handle is held in the same place so it falls all the time ... and then we can not put away the second brush and it's a shame too ... - I regret that the tray is transparent (yes I know it's a detail) but I would have preferred it to be opaque because suddenly here we see all the time dirt in it and it's all dirty on. .. Brief but I really recommend it rocked !!!
