Around the Home, Lifestyle
The VAX ONEPWR Blade 4 Pet & Car Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has just swung my love-hate relationship with housework in favour of love. Vacuuming a four floor house can be a challenge but the VAX Blade 4 makes very easy work of it.
The Blade 4 is the most versatile vacuum cleaner I have ever used and easily the most powerful, especially at picking up hair. Obviously this is its superpower as it is designed for the job. I don’t have any pets but shedding hair seems to be my superpower, so a vacuum that easily whisks this away is a godsend.
I have a simple criteria for a vacuum. It must be lightweight and a 2-in-1 cordless. It must have as many accessories as possible so I can vacuum the stairs, walls and ceilings, as well as the car and of course, have a long running time and quick charge. I also expect it to cope well with hard granite and limestone floors equally as well as it does carpet. Too much to ask for?
Apparently not, as the VAX Blade 4 comes with the latest ONEPWR 4.0 Ah rechargeable batter that only takes 3 hours to charge. It has 45 minutes runtime and doesn’t lose suction as the battery runs down. Speaking of batteries, I love the fact that the ONEPWR 4.0 battery is compatible with my other VAX ONEPWR tools. It means I can always have a charged battery ready to use.
The Blade 4 easy converts from an upright vacuum to a handheld. It came with a free tool kit that boasts the most versatile range of accessories I have ever seen for a vacuum cleaner. Each accessory is designed to reach all those awkward areas in a house, under the fridge and above the curtains spring to mind.
The VAX Blade 4 Pet & Car has a brushless motor that continually monitors the power output to maximise cleaning efficiency. It has DustVault Technology, a 3-stage filtration system that ensures that even the smallest particles of dirt and dust are captured in the dirt bin. Which incidentally can be removed for easy emptying and does away with expensive dust bags.
Having lived with the Blade 4 Pet & Car Cleaner for a while, I can say that I have enjoyed vacuuming so much more with this cleaner. The ease in which I can switch from clearing up the kitchen floor to vacuuming the stairs, then clearing cobwebs from the ceilings, makes housework so much easier and quicker.
I’m 5’10’’ and I have always found one of the greatest benefits of the Vax Cordless Vacuums (I had a Blade 2 that I loved, it’s retired to Spain now) is that the stick is long enough that I don’t have to stoop to vacuum. It’s also long enough when I want to reach those pesky cobwebs that seem to be taking over the house.
As we are all affected by the economic crisis, value for money is so important. The VAX Blade 4 Pet & Car at the time of writing is £179.99, this represents great value for money as you are in effect getting two vacuums for the price of one – well, that’s my logic! You get a versatile vacuum cleaner with the latest technology, a battery that you can use in other VAX appliances and the convenience of a bagless dirt bin. And let’s not forget the sleek design and high quality components. The finish is outstanding as well as being durable.
VAX offers a 3 year guarantee and free next day delivery when you order from their website. There has never been a better time to upgrade your vacuum cleaner, and if you are anything like me, you will not want to let the Vax out of your sight, because I can guarantee you will find it in the garage where the boys are happily using it to vacuum their cars.
If you don’t have a spare battery like me, you can always upgrade to the VAX ONEPWR Blade 4 Dual Pet & Home Vacuum Cleaner that comes with an additional ONEPWR 4.0 battery and costs £219.99
