I enjoyed it
we have the MACH 5 I belive. I have not seen the 7 here yet although I havn't been to any vacuum shops lately,just the department stores.I was wondering how well it filtered the dust and if the filters etc were easy to clean. Im not a big fan of bagless but i do try to keep one handy for quick pickups and for shedding season, I look for one that isn't too messy to clean and filters that dont clog every 2minutes of vacuuming. I to disect vacuums at 4 am if im not at work Jack.:~) Kenny | ||

That's because... The US Hoover machine is a 'dual cyclone' copy. The UK Vax Mach-7 is a 'root cyclone' design. | ||
