“The worst vacuum cleaner I have ever had”

written by Suzytoots1 on 10/02/2015

I have had 2 of these vacuum cleaners designed for pet owners. The first one had a fabric type filter. This was awful to empty and despite trying to keep it clean inside it it blew out stuffy dog smells. The hose split so I ordered a new one together with a brush attachment. Twice I was sent hoses which although fitted, didn't fit the attachments. Was told it would be looked into.
Then received a delivery of a new cleaner. Said to the driver I didn't order this, he replied I've delivered a few of these who say the same. Can only think they stopped making my one. Threw it out and used the new one.
Even worse than the first one. Continually blocks and to unblock it is the worst thing ever. Be ready to get filthy with having to dig everywhere to clear the blockage. You will get covered in dust. Even just emptying it isn't good.
It has now totally blocked within the pipes. Had to unscrew the side pipe and pull out the hairs by hand. This didn't cure it. Took the long hose off, that was clear. Turned it upside down to unscrew 5 screws to take the plate off. Dust and grit now everywhere. Can't see why it's not picking up. Cleaned the filter. Can't get the screws back in as they are recessed deep into the plastic. Must have been a machine that assembled this.
The hose attached is stretched beyond belief and won't fit snugly onto the holder anymore , it drags along the floor.
I'm taking this 4 month old vacuum cleaner to the dump, won't even bother to put it back together. It's absolutely the most annoying, useless and worst vacuum cleaner ive ever had.
