Hoover, and their very sexist back boards! Not much new here, same junk with lower wattage. |

Vax no1. Both Hoover and Vax bays gained space. I think we're still waiting for a new Vax cylinder. |

Vax again. The Air models aren't bad for performance and price ratio. The other stuff is crap. |

This is new. A cordless section. The Bosch and Vax are good, but the Hoover is laughable. |

Also new, are Shark. What is hard to see is that I have one of the machines in canister mode with the hard floor mop attached. |

The low-end Hoover and Vax machines just look insanely cheap. With that long decade of Hoover poster, you'd think they would put some effort into maintaining their heritage. At least American vacs pretend to look quality. I'd be running to your Miele section! Thanks for posting; I enjoy seeing what's available over seas. What's been your best seller lately? |

"...In terms of market placement, Hoover cleaners in the UK are so far from the top end of the market now that even if they did make a decent vacuum cleaner with a price to match, it would be unlikly to appeal to the consumer. Their placement relies on them making cheap cleaners with low price tags..."
I agree. Hoover Europe under Candy of Italy have not much of a place left in floorcare largely because the home owner company don't really take much of an interest. |

Went to Tesco yesterday and tried out a Vax Mach Air Eco model upright (or to those who love the model number details, the U90-MA-Re Air) to see what the fuss is all about.
WELL, I find it jolly difficult to push on the thin mat carpet sample tiles they have in the store because of suction power. More worringly despite Vax's redesign, adding a gaping mouth of a soleplate with no carpet bar protectors means non-permanent mats on a floor have a danger (and non-frill rug edges) of being sucked up into the brush roll and then cuts it off. Happened twice. I was worried I might be charged all of £279 for breaking the brush bar. "Happens all the time," said the sales man. Just as well! This also happens on my Vax Cordless Air, but not as much due to the lower power. |
