At first glance I was I love with the vax air 3. Very lightweight, moveable and stylish. After only a few days however my feelings dramatically changed. As an upright it worked pretty well but i wanted to get right in to the corners and skirting boards. The attachments are diabolical, never stay on and drastically lose suction as soon as they are put on. When using as upright be VERY careful not to get too close to the skirting boards (especially white skirts) my home is now filled with gruby black marks from the rubber surroundings. This comes off with a good scrub but how inconvenient every time!! Then there's the filter that gets clogged at every use. Plastic hooks to hold hose snapped after a few weeks and loud noise has now starting coming from the motor. I have never taken the time to write a review but this Is most defiantly needed. Using the vax air 3 has been nothing but hard work and hassle...I wish I would have read the reviews before buying :(((
