Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

OK while it lasted - but it didn't last

 

The unit collected dust and dirt OK, but I found it also leaked quite a bit of fine dust and smelled a lot. Like reviewers below, our unit died after roughly 2.5 years - about 6 months out of warranty. Seems to be a common problem. Basically there was...

Great! I love it!

 

I got this at Harvey Norman on the mid year sale. I was deciding between this, a Dyson DC37 and a Hoover Vogue. I found the Hoover didn't have enough suction. I did like the Dyson but I chose this as it has the 3 in 1 piece, hard wood head, normal head...

Powerful suction, Great accessories and easy to empty

Stiff power button and doesn't move around corners easy

Great for a vacuum cleaner

 

I only have 3 carpeted rooms but a use it on floorboards also. I only clean up the bulk of dog hair on the floorboards and sweep before washing properly. Harvey Norman gave me $100 off the marked price and for what I paid, it's a solid vacuum cleaner....

Bagless, suction power, turbo head

It is loud... but guess its proportionate to power

Faulty Product

 

We purchased one of these Bagless vacuum cleaners around 4 months ago and it soon failed (after about 6 uses). Upon taking it to an approved repair person who promptly told me the filters will have caused the failure (apparently this product has no...

It worked a few times

It doesn't work

The worst vac i have ever purchased

 

The fittings poor the mobility poor not at all a pleasant experience very heavy to navigate does not glide over carpet smoothly and leaves half the dirt behind on tile floor does not fold away nicely either i would certainly not buy this brand again...

badly made attachments are a struggle to change and like dragging a bus around

Vaccuum cleaner

 

This particular model has been fantastic. Is a cyclonic bagless vacuum cleaner. Has attachments to suit hard floor only, combination hard/carpet and one for pet hair and deep down carpet cleaning. I'm finding it so easy to use, clean and relatively...

Easy to use. Clean air due to cyclonic. Bagless. Attachments at hand on the hand piece.

They don't make them like they used to

 

We purchased new carpet in November 2012, so we thought we would update our vacuum cleaner as our Electrolux vacuum, even though it still works very well is 28 years old. Because it had been so reliable we chose another Electrolux (ZUA3831PT). Big...

Badly designed and manufactured, very poor customer service from Electrolux.

Good while it lasted

 

We bought this vacuum in mid-2010 after our Miele died (just out of warranty). When we first got it it did a great job and we were happy. It was very noisy, but it did do a good job - good suction, easy to manouvre. Keep in mind though that we have...

For the first year it did work very well.

Very noisy, and died well before we expected it to. Not good value for the price.

No Regrets & Happy

 

Purchased the unit in Nov. 2012. After 3 months I can comfortably say that I'm happy with the choice. Our previous vacuum was also an Electrolux but with filter bag. It is still working after 8 years but we as we have pets the smell of the exhaust was...

Silent; great suction; easy to use; maneuvrable, well accessorized (esp. turbo head); cord length

Handle layout not ideal; cord retraction not perfect; on/off switch a bit finnicky.
