THE ACCESSORIES
Firstly, here we have a normal large attachment TriActiveMax, but which is spiced up with some ideas. Set the switch to switch between carpet and smooth floors, one knows already. When set for smooth floors go from round short black bristles, in carpet setting fold this one, the blue fabric fields are then above (see pictures).
Particularly that's left and right on the edge are blue bristles long and wheels on which the essay goes smoothly. The advantage of blue bristles on the edge, I immediately noticed. If I now in a corner for example sucking the door frame and on the very edge is dirty, then I can these with the bristles easily and quickly pull forward and then suck. Sometimes one has then scraped the old vacuum cleaner 10 times with the plastic articles in the corner (and thus perhaps also the wood of the door frame or something scratched) to catch at any crumbs or lint. This paper works really well and is no comparison to my old brand of vacuum cleaner just has only one simple essay without these blue bristles on the edge. It promises what she thinks.
Furthermore, even a 180 ° attachment while Diamond Flex hard floor brush, which rotates 90 ° to the left and 90 ° to the right. This is intended for smooth floors and is especially well by the possibility of rotation in all corners, but also because of their flat surface difficult areas (deep sofas etc.) can achieve. I have not yet tried it. The other paper I'm super in every nook and even under my bed. I personally do not need this article so far.
Next, we had there was the 2-in-1 nozzle so this pad attachment. One can and must deport inform the top cap. The top cap is intended for example for sucking keyboards. He has longer bristles and thus all crumbs should swirled and no buttons are drawn. Good idea really, but I have not tried.
Without the top cap, so suck to bed but I have already used and that works well, but is still exhausting rid everything (it sucks pretty strong and so well laid on the surface, but housework is now time strenuous).
And finally there's the crevice tool, which is also standard for vacuum cleaners in my opinion. Also works just as efficiently and easily as others.
A holder for the 2-in-1 nozzle and crevice nozzle to the vacuum cleaner so that it is delivered by pipe slide to fasten in a plastic holder. This works quite well, but I also fell down already 2 times while sucking. I do it then always off when I'm back and ready to put it aside.
THE DEVICE
The vacuum cleaner is bagless and has for a transparent container collects the all dirt and dust. This is easily solved by pressing a button and then can easily be emptied in the trash. Very practical, easy and efficient. And follow-up costs for bags also not there.
The design I find modern, simple and appealing. In the vacuum cleaner you can adjust the surface (upholstery, carpet, hard floor), which adapts the suction power. This is readily apparent by simple pictures.
FILTER & CONSEQUENTIAL
One should wash the filter sitting on the container and then allowed to air dry 4 times a year. I think that when viewed from the frequency fine.
Furthermore, there is an exhaust filter, which you should clean all 6months. And after 1 year's target exchange respectively. So are here still follow-up costs and that, if you ordered directly from Philips, 22.99 annually.
The suction power
The suction power makes me happy so far. He has all the threads, lint, crumbs sucked and rendered on my carpets perform well.
On the Philips website you will find a review of a man who owns the device well for 2 years and the reports that the suction power as no longer is now so well known. That makes me a little suspicious and makes me doubt the device. However, you never know if he has, for example, all the filters cleaned and exchanged properly.
I had asked once by mistake on carpet but want to suck a smooth floor. Since the essay has as strong festgesaugt I thought he moves so well as not. ;-)
In the vacuum cleaner you can adjust the surface (upholstery, carpet, hard floor), which adapts the suction power. This is readily apparent by simple pictures. Furthermore, you can adjust this on the tube (I know already from other vacuum cleaners, because then a louver on it) as seen by little pictures and the TriActiveMax essay can also adjust it again. Set 3 times find myself a bit much. On paper, I understand it, because bristles fold or extend, the device itself also due to the performance but the pipe I put nothing more a. This will stay with me for ever. And the power thus higher.
PRICE
The price amounts to 249 when ordered to Philips. On xxl-deals.de or meinpaket.de you however already get it for 191. So you can save 37% in other stores. 249 would me far too much for a vacuum cleaner.
FURTHER
The noise I do not louder or quieter than other devices.
The vacuum cleaner Energy efficiency class A has I find good and important.
By 2 large wheels it rolls smoothly through the apartment.
Cable retraction works just like with all other vacuum cleaners also
