Poor design
I bought VAX after my LG stopped working after 10 years. I decided on VAX because I remembered how great our old one was.
The vacuum worked well initially. I was happy with the purchase. Now getting close to 2 years the suction isn't great. Ive narrowed it to the seal under the barrel. When you pick up the vacuum using barrel handle while on, the seal is impacted. Ive found that the barrel to unit seal is not maintained and losing suction over time. Poor design.

Not great
It's not a great vacuum. It was recommended to me by a friend but unfortunately it doesn't do a good enough job for my home. I have 2 long haired cats who shed alot and this vacuum ends up so full of hair in the spinny bit I have to cut it out. Very time consuming and vacuuming takes all day. If you have it on high power for too long and turn it off it won't turn back on until it's cooled down which takes ages. The hose also disconnects from the vacuum when you are trying to pull it around.
Do not recommend for anyone who has alot of pet hair to get rid of.

It dies
We've had this vacuum for maybe a year and a bit. It was great in the beginning. But I've got 3 ragdoll cats that shed a lot of hair especially in my carpeted room. Now when I try and vacuum it up it will last maybe a minute or sometimes 5 before it shuts itself off. We thought maybe overheating but the spinning part in the bottom doesn't spin anymore. So it doesn't pick anything up and its driving us insane.

Got a lemon and replaced it.
We bought this vacuum cleaner and it was strong and powerful in the shop demo. Got the new one home and it had no suction, made a loud high pitched noise and vibrated like crazy. Returned it to the shop the next day and got a replacement. The new one works a treat, excellent suction,no vibrations and no high pitched squeal. We are very happy with the replacement vacuum cleaner, just not happy that we had to trek back to the shop to change it within a day. Lucky we tested it out before we got home, which was 260kms away.

The best
Bought one for my Grandfather realised how brilliant it was and got myself one ,extra long cord, all the attachments you will ever need and long adjustable handle, easy to empty and don’t always need to clean the filter out, excellent suction hasn’t changed since the day l bought it three years ago. I’ve been a cleaner for six years and have never come across a better vacuum.

Best vac we have had in a long time
I bought this vac just over 2 yrs ago and it's great. Love the different attachments. We have a combination of timber floors and carpet. With 2 dogs, a cat and kids it has kept up with our busy lifestyle. I really love the long flexible hose as it enables me to reach areas not available with previous machine.

Do not recommend!
Purchased this four months ago, within one month it had an electrical fault and stopped working. Replacement stopped working within two months - wand/brush attachment stopped rotating and was unable to vaccume anything. Do not recommend!! However I commend the warranty, easy to return.

Hi jonmcg,
Thanks for getting in touch.
The combination floor head is a tool that sits on the end of your vacuum that features both soft and hard floor setting and changes at the release of a switch.
