QX9-1-ALRG QX9 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

Only had it a few days but so far it has exceeded my expectations. I have had a Dyson for years and was thinking if replacing it with another one, but I am so glad that I didn't! We have mainly wooden/stone floors and this vacuum is so much better in terms of suction, manoeuvrability and noise. Also love that it stands up and it's so easy to click in and out of the charger.

This is a very good product. In my view it could be brilliant if they....

1. Moved the on off button, the number of times I've turned off or on by accidentally hitting the button on the handle
2. The little hand held device only has one speed which sometimes doesn't have enough power to tackle stairs or cars or really heavy use areas.

Otherwise very good, a nice change from Dyson, and very lightweight so I use it more often.

If you are debating whether or not to go cordless, dither no longer; cordless is best. Vacuuming used to be my most hated chore. Now, this one stands just behind my sofa, looking surprisingly presentable, and easy to grab and do a few minutes daily vacuuming. Daily! I would not dream of doing daily vacuuming before, but with this thing I actually enjoy it, finding it intriguing to watch the dust gather in the bagless compartment. I find it no trouble emptying it every 5 mins, and the way it detaches to form a handheld thing is great for things like stairs.

As for its power, effectiveness, etc. I'm afraid I can only compare it with my old Henry. I will still bring him out of the shed for plaster-dust, rubble, etc. because , though heavy and noisy, he is indestructible. I may be wrong but, light and elegant, the AEG does not strike me as indestructible. Nevertheless, I am amazed how much dust it gathers, and my place is now immaculate. I see that there are many great offers on cordless cleaners at the moment but, especially if you would rather not give more money to Dyson, I can heartily recommend this one.

I absolutely love this vacuum cleaner. Firstly, the look of it is stunning. It's discrete and stands neatly against the wall blending in to the kitchen design well.
Secondly, this is the quietest vacuum ever. It seems to get all the tiny particles yet it's so quiet.
Thirdly it is lightweight. My bad back is now enjoying the cleaning process especially because the roller ball allows the machine to glide round corners or move under the sofa so easily.
I have tiles and wooden floors and I've yet to be disappointed with this.
The removable handheld device is genius just tucked away. It's really powerful too and great for getting in little crevices.
My kids both spotted the lights and have decided they want to vacuum in the dark as they can see what they're doing. Surely everyone's a winner here?!
The attachments are great to vary the level of pick up according to the floor type.
The only negatives I can mention are that *there's nowhere to store the attachments within or on the vacuum.
*the lower two settings on the main vacuum seem so low that I'm not sure there's much point using them.
*the charging base is the same size as the base unit so although it keeps the unit upright, and I'm not sure if the vacuum could have just used a regular plug for it's recharge.


Other than that, run time is great with constant uniform quiet suction and it looks fab!
