Bought one of these things in ARGOS and the switch packed in after 6 months. ARGOS refused to replace it and told me to contact VAX. Thanks ARGOS! VAX replaced the machine to their credit. Credit where it's due. Six months down the line the replacement started smoking and sparking. Contacted VAX - as the original machine's warranty had expired so has the one for the replacement despite it being only six months old. The machine is not over-used, it is not maltreated and is emptied daily.
The build quality is shocking. The on/off switch will inevitably pack-in at some point as it is so flimsy. Just very poor all round. Avoid VAX. We are now dumping this fairly new machine at the dump and going for a DYSON.
