Customer Review

Positives:
-----------------------
- Wireless.
- Shall be free when stowing.
- Relatively compact storage demands.
- Silent default mode in the state part
- Design like it better than the AEG.

Neutral:
-----------------------
- You always have to reinsert the plug after having sucked, otherwise the device is not ready for the next time. Ie the teat must always be stowed near an electrical outlet.
- Stand part not rigid, plastic can be loosely twist by 20 °.
- Brushroll certainly not particularly gentle on surfaces.
- 20 min. Sucking is already scarce.
- Size of the dust container makes emptying necessary after 2x sucking.
- Battery level indicator blinks continuously during charging. 6 hrs. Long. Depending on the installation can be disturbing.

Negatives:
-----------------------
- Heavier particles as dust falls out front again when switched off.
- The "2000 watts" produce lower suction power than my 1500 Watt Siemens. That is just so sufficient for coarse dust (fine not) when the nozzles are flat. If you want to work with the handpiece "floating" is not enough.
- Main Jet is narrower than that of most conventional vacuum cleaners, so no need to frequently back and forth over large areas.
- Non adjustable height / length. Ergonomics mediocre on larger individuals.
- Total weight low, but you also have always the whole lift device as opposed to a conventional vacuum cleaner, where you have to move only the much lighter tube.
- You have 6 hours, waiting for when the battery is empty, rather than simply continue Wired.
- Groove on "main jet" collects unnecessary dust.
- Edges are drawn at a distance of 2-3 cm is not, probably because the roller brush can stir up nothing. That means you have to pick up the handset, which is also NOT edges without the mini-brush attachment.

Handset:
-----------------------
- To remove only the handset you have to advance the charging plug (and the later re-insert plug).
- For edges you have to pick up the handpiece and put on the extending small brush because of the dust container is over too far forward.
- Hand-part nozzle is also very narrow. (Narrower than usual hand vacuum cleaners to fit into the tube from the state part) to free a table of crumbs lasts as unnecessarily long.
- Attachment nozzle for hand part is hakelig to install, you can easily get your fingers caught
- Is always not be switched off turbo mode and therefore so loud that you should avoid to use it near the head.
- The unit itself is very in need of care. Cleaning of filters, dust collector, brushes etc. never goes without dusting the device from the outside.

CONCLUSION:
-----------------------
Main nozzle and handpiece nozzle too narrow. Power only sufficient when lying flat. No good sucking on edge.
Heavy particles fall back out. Care-intensive. As a second vacuum cleaner OK, but overpriced.

In short: The machine is in all respects worse than my 14 year old Siemens vacuum cleaner, but it is wireless and a little less ground covering stowing (near a power outlet for charging).
