Great coreless pet vac
I purchased this around 6 weeks ago and it has been really great on the hardwood floors picking up the pet hair. The lights on the roller head help high light the pet hair which is good. The different power levels also support the eco power side.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Excellent
I love this thing. The lights!! They show where it's dust and tell you when there's no more dust and you can move on! The suction varies accordingly as you vacuum and is powerful. The implements don't get tangled up with hair. The battery is strong.
I actually enjoy vacuum cleaning because of this thing ????

Great vacuum .
I bought this a little while ago, and for me it has been a game changer for cleaning and revitalising my carpets. The choice of three suctions is brilliant. It almost works itself .

Just a brilliant machine
A brilliant machine. Very powerful and easy to use as it is so manoeuvrable with the moving head and bendable main tube. A little heavier than I was expecting but it pretty much gently pulls you along when you’re using it so the weight isn’t noticeable in use. Love the collection box so you don’t have to handle any of what has been sucked up. As others have mentioned, the only negative is that it doesn’t stand up in its own but it is easy enough to lean it against something if you need to. I highly recommend it, I love mine already.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Quite excited to vacuum
Just used the vacuum. It is amazing. So much better than the clunky, heavy Dyson! Lights up all the dust on the floor so you can see where needs to be done. So light and easy to manoeuvre. Quite excited to vacuum!

What are the benefits of an Auto Empty Dock?

Why does the Auto Empty Dock stop and start during evacuation?
