Good Points
Superb cleaning power - picks up everything.
Bad Points
A little heavy, and not a machine for any old dim-lo to throw around.
General Comments
The Bosch Cyclone Jet BUC11700UC is definitely the best vacuum cleaner we have ever owned, but it needs to be treated with respect and intelligence.
If you are the kind of person who does not believe in looking after equipment, don't buy one. Our machine is now almost three years old and is still doing a great job. It has failed once when my wife decided to pick up some damp wall paper she had stripped (even though we do have a big 'wet and dry' job for doing just that). The said paper, of course jammed the machine, but I soon got it sorted. "This is a carpet and dust cleaner my dear not an industrial cleaner - please don't do it again!".
The machine is still doing an excellent job, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE USED CORRECTLY!
