Il be voting for the GTech Air Ram.

Have just got myself one and fully charged it. Quick swipe over the bathroom carpet and its pulled out alot of Talc powder that a hoover turbopower 1000, hoover ranger, dc14, has missed over the months.

Not bad for a rechargeable cleaner. Im very impressed with its cat hair, dust, grit, fluff removal. 10/10 Im wondering just how great it will keep performing daily so I only have to get the large machines out once a week.
 
Id love an Air Ram but I adore my Gtech carpet sweeper too much and if they ever fall in price I may buy an Air Ram eventually. Might get a Bissell though since I bought one for my best mate I was staying with in London and ever so quiet compared to the Gtech SW02.

 
turbomaster1984, I've wanted an Air Ram since they came out but couldn't really justify the price. I too have a G-tech sweeper which I love, however mine has always been very noisy, especially compared to my mother in laws. It does a great job for quick pick ups. Will be good to hear how you get on with the Air Ram after you have used it for a while.

Sebofan, I watched your review of the Bissell Sweeper, seems to perform well for the price and appears to groom the pile better than my G-Tech, however mine is a few years old now, I have noticed the newer G-Tech's seem to have an improved brush roll.
 
Thanks for watching!

I have the 2013 SW02 model Paul, and it makes a fair racket. The brush roll is okay, does the job etc and I like the slide door side exit for the dust pan. The Bissell feels a bit more substantial, not any less for the fact that it has a proper thicker metal tube and a bit more weight to the floor head. That's the compromise - if you want light as a feather and a bit of noise you can put up with, the Gtech is fine.
 
My faveorite bagless is...

Dyson DC01, Destijl preferably and the Hoover Vortex. my faveourite modern bagless is the Dyson DC25 and Dyson DC41...For the cylinders, errm, well, ahhh, NO!
 
reccomend?

its early days to say about reliability, back to back performance but I can honestly say so far so good.

Have used it to clean the house from top to bottom and its done everything ive asked of it. It has limitations - cant get into crevices, stair cleaning is ok but not great.

Its performed really well on the carpets I have in this house and on a par with the full size vacs mentioned above.

I daresay it could be a different story when it comes to plush, thick carpets but that testing will have to wait til the new house.

If a light easy quick and convienient daily machine is needed on sisal, coir carpets and hard floors then yes I daresay this is for you, It wont replace a decent bagged vac with tools attached though.

My G-Tech is the SW18 with germ guard. It has always made what I can only describe as a "ratchety" squealing sound when the brush roll bogs down. I just thought this was normal until I heard my MIL's sweeper, I don't know the model but it's white with coloured dots and a green hand grip and the brush roll visor is white plastic ( not see through), hers is very quiet even on thick carpet.

I notice Lakeland have blue bissell sweepers for £24.99, I may get one come payday.
 
My favourite is my Morphy Richards Complete Clean Lift Away. It performs really well and is easy to use.
I made a video of my Dyson DC25 for my YouTube channel and although it wasn't meant to be a Dyson Vs Morphy Richards test, I used the Lift Away on the carpet after the Dyson and it picked up more in one forward and backward pass than the DC25. I have decided to sell the Dyson after seeing the Morphy Richards outclean it. I will be making a full demo video of the Lift Away soon, but in the meantime here's an unboxing and first look.

I actually watched your video the other day. I love the Complete clean,bit of a hybrid of a couple of shark models. I'm hoping we get a M/R branded version Rotator Professional Lift Away , they look super cool!!

Also watched your review of the G-Tech Air Ram, informative and funny and your dogs are gorgeous!
 
I hate the Air ram, I used it andwhile I was checkingvtge brushbar, then put it upright again, the dirt came out!
 
Though I generally prefer bagged vacuums, I am absolutely enamored with the inexpensive and easy to use Swiffer Sweeper Vac cordless stick vac for bare floors.

It's lightweight and really effective when you want to quickly clean and dust your bare floors. In essence it is a Dustbuster combined with an electrostatic cloth mop pad.

My nominee for best bagless vac!



 
RE Rainbow..

Tom is correct, I used to sell Rainbows in the early 80s, part of the demo was to turn the machine on its side while running to sho the prospect,1, the water would not spill or get in the motor and 2, to show the cyclonic action, we used to say," A rain storm right in your home!"
 
For me it would be ...

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">... a tough choice to choose a favorite as I have two Dysons from the UK (a DC11 canister and a DC07 upright), a Filter Queen Majestic Triple Crown, two Electrolux TwinCleans (one from USA and one from the UK), and a Rainbow D4CSE!</span>


 


<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">All are good in their own ways.</span>

Dont want ANYTHING

Bagless, too much mess, a Filter Queen is as close to bagless as I want to get!
 
After I have used whatever bagless one-I vacuum out its bag,bin,or filters with a paper bagged NSS M1!
I have tipped over my Rainbow vac accidently-no water spilled-but it does make destressing noises!Oh yes after I use the Rainbow-dump its water bin outside-then rinse the bin out and leave it to dry-never have it assembled to the Rainbow "powerdome"
