Very top heavy unit so any slight tug etc pops it on its side. This is extra annoying in dry mode as there's less weight in it and the float still slides up and stops the suction.

Purchased this as a replacement for my faithful Henry which, due to health reasons I found him to heavy to use. This cheap,lightweight vacuum is a great replacement albeit there are a few minus points. It does tend to topple over quite alot which means having to switch it off and allowing the suction cap to close before being able to switch back on. The suction is really good although for something so small it does have a loud "voice".The tubing feels extremely fragile which in turn makes pushing over the carpet difficult as you feels like it may snap. I have tried using the bags but found it difficult to attach. I therefore ensure the motor is completely covered beforehand. It's a smashing little vacuum for small areas but as a robust vacuum, I would suggest looking at the other vacuums in this range. I cannot comment on its blower or it's wet suction abilities as I've not, as yet, had the need to use them. Would I recommend this vacuum? Yes, I would if purchased for your granny, student living or for small house/flat.

Bought this vacuum because I have a deep pile shaggy rug and regular vacuums either don’t have enough suction or the rotating brush doesn’t rotate. This vacuum did the trick, fantastic suction, pulled up tons of dog hair and any crumbs, beads, anything. Works fantastic on hard floors to the point they have a shine to them. The bag wasn’t tricky to fit at all, it does tip over if you attempt to vacuum deep carpet but it’s light enough to carry while you vacuum. I’ve not used it on liquids yet but I have a feeling it will excel with that too. Very impressed.

It’s a compact unit that is easy to carry from job to job. Unfortunately had to return it. The supplied dust bags just don’t hold in place well. Used it on a job to find all the dust ended up in the canister & not the bag. Purchased new bags but still the same issue. The end of the nozzle is fixed & doesn’t swivel which causes the hose to kink.The Titan vacuum from Screwfix is the same price & is far better quality.

I have had 3 of these.I first had one of these at my old flat, it came with the flat and was quite useful for small surface area for a carpet that was only for one room.When I left I bought a second one (cost me £50 then) and it had a metal drum, this new one has a plastic drum, but I am still using my metal drum, the main part that is flawed in this vaccum cleaner is the main intake pipe, the problem is items getting sucked up through the first pipe and stuck in the second pipe and the main pipe has a piece on it that is not straight so it is almost impossible to get certain items out without breaking the pipe.I had to buy another Vaccum cleaner, I bought another Draper, plastic drum for £36.50, unfortunately they have narrowed the main pipe even further and within 2 hours of having it I kept getting blockages, because the pipe is narrower and is slightly bent you cannot unblock it if you get something too big in there, most of the time I used water to flush items out,, but every now and again, something big gets sucked into the external pipe and gets stuck in the main pipe. Best to clear big items off the floor first before using it.Other reviewers have correctly mentioned that it has a problem when moving it as it often falls over and you have to switch it on and off to get it to reset.Bags are a problem to replace as they are not the right size, fortunately it is wet and dry and you don't really need them it is worth noting though that if you use it for wet areas, the dust filter bag will rot and you will need to replace it. Likewise if you are using dust collection bags they are made of big brown envelopes so they are not water resistant.Also the power cord does not wind up automatically with a button, so you have to manually wind it up and even then there is nowhere to secure it properly, so unless you knot it, it will unravel.For the price and careful use it is an ok vaccum cleaner.

Got this in sales around £30.-.For that price it is excellent.The only part I got in trouble with, was: installation of the paper bag! Either I am completely incapable or this is a bit fiddly! It fits over the nozzle where dust etc comes in, but it just won't stay and get's "sucked off" that inlet!Well, before throwing the whole thing out of the window, I fixed the cardboard part of the bag to the wall of the dustbucket with small pieces of "Gorilla" tape - works perfectly! Suction is very good! Even for the normal price it is a good vacuum cleaner, very light, not at all flimsy (bar the tube and pipes, they are very light, but work well) . Installation of the motor-filters is easy, assembly no problem. Have not done wet yet, later!
