Compact Bagless Vax canister vac: which one?

[marcusprit]

That one looks better!

Wish Vax offered a similar model in the UK.I had a similar Vax cylinder in the past but not with a PN.

Its a darn shame you don't like uprights - the original Vax Mach Air upright weighs 4.5kg and is is multicyclonic - all of the original Vax Mach Air uprights have softer bristles too - and the Reach model weighs 5.3kg - hardly heavy!

The Vax C88-AM-B Air Mini CYLINDER vac weighs 4.9kg and its multi-cyclonic. Hardly heavy. Also has 2 litre dust bin, 0.5 litres more than the one you've chosen. It is still quite compact.

But, anyway let us know how you get on with your new purchase.

Ok, finally got it, so I can make a 1st-impression review.

At first what can I say is I didn't expect it to be that powerful and quiet at this price level as it is 'low-end' cylinder vacuum from VAX.

Someone said that 700 Watt motor may not be too weak and it isn't. It has to be good design as the suction power is only a little weaker than my other 1400 Watt goos design bagged cylider.

I make some tests of it. Look forward.

Well I'll be the first to say welcome to VL as I can see you are a new member. Don't think we have many from Poland so that is nice to see. I understand in Poland they have different models. Some of the UK models are not available over there, but you seem to have done well there. Vax are very good value for money machine.

I like your videos as well.

The Impact 102 is available in the UK.

Yes, it was imported from UK, that's why the plug is "British" and I need to use plug-adaptor. But, so far I like this cylinder. I did vacuum one room but suction is still strong. Will tell you about my impression when I do entire house with one pre-motor filter.

It looks like a Bissell Zing bagged canister here in the USA

Like this? I wouldn't say it. The Vax has a much flatter, wider body and the hose locks in down the front as opposed to one on the top of the Bissell. Mind you I do like the look of the bagged Zing. Bissell seldom have bagged vacs in the UK now.
