Good Points

Place to store accessories is good but the window cleaner attachment is difficult to replace. The flex is long, which makes it easier to cover large ares.


Bad Points

Pressure not high enough. Accessories too delicate. No place to put flex. Something to wrap it around would be good.


General Comments

I bought the VAX V081 steam cleaner and was very disappointed with its performance. Originally, I had a Polti steam cleaner which was wonderful. The pressure was higher than the Vax and cleaning was easier. Despite vacuuming, the vax won't remove left over cat/dog hairs. Also, the vax leaves floors and furniture very wet. I used to use the Polti to steam clean my mattresses during the summer and they were dry in a short length of time. The lance and accessories with the Vax are very delicate. Would prefer something sturdier.
