I have to say there are some thing that you buy on here, and you are disappointed with the quality... and others that you think - "why didn't I buy this sooner". This is definitely the latter. I have had it about a month, and loving it. It looks modern, works like a dream, and is easy to use. It is almost better than my main vacuum cleaner, but I use it mainly to clean the bed after our dog has been dropping hirs there, and the insider of the car. It charges quickly, and the attachments are just what you need. My wife doesn't like the lavender smell, but I do... so there you go! A top buy

It is only the first day - but I am so pleased with this hand-held cleaner.I previously bought cheap (Chinese?) versions - which were fairly good but eventually lost their charge and had to be thrown away. Then I bought the Shark one - the very attractive stick version. It looked great but didn't work very well - so I returned it.This one isn't very pretty (a woman's opinion) - but that doesn't matter because it works really well and has very good suction. Excellent for the stairs (with a bright light) and the crevice tool is really good. I am elderly, and need two hip and knee replacements - so my stairs have always been a problem. Not now though. Some say it is heavy - but I certainly don't think so - and I have arthritis in my hands.Be careful at first removing the battery / filter etc. as it may be a little stiff. Wriggle things a bit (as they suggest) and they all work fine. It does say you need to remove the battery before changing the attachments (a bit of a faff when you are on the stairs) but you DON'T. I phoned their helpline and the lady (who also owns one) says there is no need to do this.This machine has been well thought out - thank you Nick. Nice to have a spare filter too when you have washed one, and good that you can buy attachments, and an extra battery. Seems like British workmanship at its best. If you are careful with it (it is plastic after all) and keep it clean and unclogged - it should last a fair while - and it does have a 2-year warranty. It is early days for me - but I thoroughly recommend this cleaner. Should I have problems in the future - I will amend my review.EDIT: It was said that you need not remove the battery when changing attachments - but when I spoke to another rep. and she said they recommend this when using the brush bar (on the K9) because you could accidentally turn on the machine. So a H&S issue but if you are careful it shouldn't be a problem.

I can't fault this product, it's brilliant!! I have two full flights of stairs in my house and my up right vacum cleaner (the make of which begins with a D) is bulky and heavy and has no small attachment for stairs, so cleaning the stair cases has been hard work for years. That has now completely changed, thanks to the gtech multi hand held. It is easy enough to use one handed, the brush head is the perfect size for stairs, its small enough to store in a cupboard, its got great suction power and the brush head even has a little light on it!! 😁 All those stupid little things that anoy you about vacum cleaners - Gtech have sorted them!! 👏 Its incredibly easy to get to the filter if you need to clean it. Its very easy to empty the bin. Very quick and easy to change the attachments. Easy peesey to get the brush head out if you need to replace or clean it and they have a brilliant little way of getting the hair out of the bristles. It arrives with some charge on it (not full) so you can test it out straight out of the box. AND the packaging is all recyclable!! I can not reccomend this highly enough.

Who would have thought when I first opened my Amazon account - I’d be writing reviews about hoovers!! This is now my 3rd hoover review!! 🤣🤣🤣😱😱😱I’ve got a robovac that does the vast majority of my house, but there are always bits where that can’t reach (stairs are the obvious point, as well as all the small crevices in the skirting board and nooks and crannies - as well as the car).I was initially put onto this hoover by my Nan who had one and raved about it - whilst I raved about my robo hoover (sad lives we live I know!). After I lent her my robo hoover she was convinced and I bought her one, and after she lent me this Gtech I was also convinced and bought one!!This is not a replacement for a full sized hoover - I’d say this is complimentary. It does all the little things you don’t want to get a big hoover out for - or in my case the things a robo hoover can’t do.This is great for the stairs with the powered attachment, I mean absolutely fantastic! We have two sets of stairs in my house (3 floors) and this managed both sets with the powered attachment and also with the crevice tool to really get into the nooks - with battery to spare to clean our mid sized SUV - which it got 3/4” of the way round before the battery ran out.The battery lasts for roughly 20 minutes (on a four hour charge), which may seem not a lot of time for the amount it took to charge, but as I said, you won’t be hoovering the entire house with this - you’ll be doing the odd bit of hoovering here and there, and using it for the stairs and the like.You need to be careful where you pull when you change attachments, as in the instruction manual it tells you to hold by the handle and pull the entire suction head off - I’m not the strongest guy, but I managed to pull so hard it pulled the led light section and electric powered section clean off - pulling out the wires in the process. 😱😱😱Luckily I’m quite handy and was able to take 3 screws out (2 under the dust cartridge) and one underneath the power button (this now has a small crack in it as I had to prise it out). But I was able to reattach the wires and it’s working perfectly fine again!Luckily if I couldn’t fix it - a replacement body (basically everything except the powered head, tools, dust cartridge & battery) runs quite cheaply and is only roughly £40 to replace.There is no ‘charging base’ just a cable you plug into the battery (which can be charged whilst in the hoover or separately on its own). This is a plus point or a negative depending on how you look at it - I quite like the fact there is no base and you can charge it easily without having to find another space for something to be out permanently.As the battery is removable - if you want to extend the life of your hoover between the 4 hour charge, you can obviously buy a second (or third) battery that is all ready charged waiting for use, whilst you charge the original one.This comes with a decent number of attachments, but if you have a 3D printer (or know someone who has one) there are a multitude of extra nozzles that can be made for even more specific uses.One slightly bad point, the included cartridge filters are a bit weird smelling.Also - included in the box is a 50% voucher for the car kit, so worth waiting to get this and then get the car kit at a later date - saving some money!Even with the slight issue whereby my superior strength broke mine (easy-ish fix though - or cheapish replacement part) and the weird smell - I would definitely recommend this cordless battery powered hoover as a companion to either a regular plug in hoover or a robovac!!
