The U88-AM-Be Air3 225 air watt upright vacuum cleaner, gives you all the cleaning power of a conventional upright in a slim, lightweight design. Multi cyclonic technology gives you outstanding powerful suction too. It’s easy to manoeuvre thanks to the dual axis that allows you to twist and turn around your furniture with the flick of a wrist. Even though the body is slim, you still get a generous 2 litre dust container so you can vacuum for longer without constant emptying. Allergy sufferers will be relieved to know it’s got a HEPA Media filter that traps all dirt, dust and pollens inside. This model boasts Vax’s amazing 6 year guarantee too, so you’ve got complete peace of mind. Does what we bought it forLight and easy to carry. We got it for the upstairs bedrooms to save bringing the larger one up but we now take it downstairs and do everything!!
However... it's not very big and I'm 6' and have to push it in a rather stooped manner. The cable doesn't really get far into other rooms and the dust compartment fills up very quickly. Sometimes the dust gets into the upper section (above a 'cone') and I have to rake it out with a bit of wire. We shouldn't be asking it to do more than it's capable of I suppose. The vacuum cleaner has excellent suction....too much even!!! Because it has so much, the fact that you cannot raise or lower the height means it just sucks itself onto the hard floor/lino or dense pile carpet. This means you severely struggle to push it around on hard floors. If the height could have been adjusted, this would of allowed some of the suction to be reduced, thus reducing the effect. It's a great cleaner other than that. Great suction but very small hose Cleans really well but both the hose and sure are shirt so makes stairs a pain. It would be fantastic if these were made longer. Disappointed as it makes that difficult job even more difficult
