    Our previous cordless hoover was very poor, so I spent a lot of time researching what to replace it with. This model kept being recommended, and I can now see why. Excellent section, easy to empty and clean, and charge lasts a long time. Very well designed and built.

    I have a little dog and I love him dearly, but am also an OCD clean freak.
    I use this every night as a quick whizz over my hard floors and thin rugs (it can’t cope with any of my thicker fluffy rugs) just keep the dust and dog debris at bay.
    I have a Henry that comes out once a week for a thorough clean though.
    Very lightweight, I love the booster speed (which I always use) has enough juice to do my downstairs, which is what I wanted it for.
    Battery charges quickly and holds it power well over the weekend and holidays when not used.
    Overall I’m pleased with it as a top-up hoover. I don’t think it’s powerful enough as a main household one, and saves me from having to haul Henry round (he is wonderful but cumbersome to say the least).

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersWith such a mind boggling array of choices for cordless vacuum cleaners this one seemed to stand out from the crowd,WHICH? & Good housekeeping guide recommended

    Easy to assemble from the box very easy to use ,the attachments are great for doing stairs plus my carpets have never looked so clean outstripping even the mains operated hoovers I’ve owned and worn out over the years

    I also own two cats which at this time of the year are shedding their winter coats like there’s no tomorrow !!
    But It picks up all of the ingrained fur without any problems

    I like the fact it’s got a light on the front so you can see the dirt better especially on my carpets which are all dark coloured

    I live in a small 3 bedroom semi so one battery is more than enough but if you are going to use it more intensely or you have a bigger house I’d definitely go for the option that has the two batteries and cheaper than buying one separately

    The extra suction button is very powerful and the hoover stick to the floor literally it picks up even stray cat litter
    But it gobbles up the power quite quickly
    All in all I’m over the moon with this vacuum cleaner its made hoovering much more of a joy than a chore for sure

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersThe blade is really good to use has plenty of power and if on the boost takes so much more up and my carpets look different now . The only drawback is the 45 mins runtime just no chance of achieving that. Full charge with boost 5 mins max but with just brush 10.15 mins max totally disgusted .their claim for 45 min . Would be 5 stars plus if they were honest about the battery.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersInitial impressions – seems powerful and easy to use. Not an amazing mounting mechanism but works fine… Would be better with a place to hang the slinky hose and possibly a screw keyhole hanger on the back of the battery charger – I used a couple strips of double sided foam with good adhesive to adhere to the fridge.
    Turbo mode seems to be so powerful that it holds onto hard flooring like it’s life depends on it… Which is good because I’d prefer to use less battery and stay away from turbo mode.
    Carpet with turbo and the powered roller feels like it is about to take piles out of the carpet. My old Gtech AirRam K9 obviously didn’t touch the depths of the carpet that the Blade 4 Pet and Car does as I had vacuumed one room and ended up with a satisfyingly gross amount of dust and hair (see pic). As embarrassed as I am to show the photo, I think it needed to be shown just to let it speak for the blade 4.
    Too early to tell with the battery life but as with all battery powered vacuums… You will never get what you want (it to last forever). Maybe only what you expect from Li-Ion.
    Would recommend. Not a bad price for what it picked up…

    5.0 out of 5 stars It sucks (brilliantly)

    Arrived as promised. All the pieces fit well. Suction us strong and it really is the best carpet vacuum. The dust catcher fills up with one house vacuum. Battery lasts long enough to vacuum 3 bedrooms, lounge, dining room, kitchen and bathroom Including entrance hall and stairs. The dust doesn’t fall out of the catcher. You have to pull it out which is a messy exercise. I find it easier to pull it to pieces and clean out after every vacuum. 1 month and still going strong. Very impressed.

First use with the light on was shocking! I had only vacuumed the evening before yet the light highlighted the amount of dog hair all over the floor. Suction power is incredible, and that’s only on the first setting! Would def recommend

    Not the most powerful vacuum and struggles a bit with thick dog hair but at the same time I love it, it’s light weight and hassle free, I use it way more then I used to use my Henry hoover.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersI am kind of vacuum obsessed. I have several robot vacuums and owned a dyson animal for years. After extensive research to find the balance between, battery, good for pets and dust, attachments, weight etc i settled on this. To make it easy i will break it down, i am comparing it against my dyson as that’s what it was replacing;

    Pros;
    Battery life- Much longer then dyson, it does a 5 bed house and not even half battery is done.
    Suction power – Way more powerful than my dyson, it really doesnt leave anything behind.
    Has LED lights on main floor attachments, makes it very easy to see dirty spots.
    Cost – Way better value for money.
    Good capacity, slightly larger than my dyson.
    Diffrent power settings, easy to use.
    Multple attachments.
    Great for pet haair (i have a dog)

    Cons;
    Slightly heavier than dyson (battery size has part to play)
    Not as easy to empty as other cordless.
    Not a fan of the smaller brush with motor, they have made it bend so not easy for stairs.

    Other than that, very happy.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersBought this a week ago and am pleased with it. Has more suction than any one I have had before including a DYSON even on the default power setting and the motorised roller really works on carpets. Only use it for short periods and the battery lasts a reasonable time before you have to recharge. Once used to it the detachable dustbin is easy to use and better than having to hold the whole machine over the refuse bin. Drawbacks – the battery has to be removed to charge and cannot just be left on and the machine is much heavier than other comparable ones and thus a bit cumbersome.

    I bought tis as my wife is struggling with the old heavy upright we have – even though I do most of the vacuuming. Great for any little accident such as an ashtray being dropped on the floor. Quite good for a thorough cleaning job. Very handy without any cords. Efficient. A little heavy/clumsy on stairs as it is quite heavy even though it is described as a light weight.

    Great little light weight hoover. Im a cat owner in a small flat. The hoover does great for what I need it for but on full power (which you need with animal hair), the battery usage is about 10-15 mins only. Lasts a bit longer on basic hoover mode and it’s easy to clean out. If you have a bigger home I’d advise you that you’d only be able to do a few rooms at a time between having to charge it up again.

  27. AkilahRoyal says:

    Not one to usually write reviews but I am so impressed with this vacuum I felt it’s worth writing one. After purchasing several models of similar dyson models at a much more expensive price I decided to give this a chance. Glad I did, not only have I saved money but the vacuum does a much better job than the dyson. Would highly recommend

  28. ONJCarissa says:

     United Kingdom

    Little bit tricky to put together, but once the battery was fully charged, my god!! I never realised that my previous hoover (which was also a Vax) never picked up everything. I have a long haired cat, and the power brush mode, picked up every single hair. My rug looks brand new now. Very happy

  29. TressaBaecker says:

     United Kingdom

    It is fantastic! Sucks up even the deepest and tiniest particles of dust,rotating brush or the dirt container doesn’t clog with hair ( we have Persian cats so this machine is a life saviour as all other vacuums clog and break!). It is a bit heavy for my arm ( I have had shoulder rotator injury few weeks ago) but I really don’t mind a bit of a workout :)))
    I love the light at the end of the main brush which helps cleaning under the furniture etc, also all little attachments it comes with are super handy!!! It sucks up so brilliantly thst dirt has no chances in the smallest of crevices, beautifully cleans skirting boards etc

    This Vax Pet Blade is excellent. Having three medium sized dogs, you can imagine the amount of hair that is distributed around the home. With the brush-less motor and great suction, it does a great job of cleaning up. Being cordless too, it’s so handy to just lift from it’s cloakroom storage station when required. It actually works so well, that you need to empty and clean the machine quite often, which is not a complaint. I can see now why it received a ‘best buy’ award. Highly recommended to anyone considering a purchase. You won’t be disappointed.

    Always wanted a Dyson but as they are very expensive, I thought I’d try some cheaper versions.
    I bought a Prosenic which was ok but the battery only lasted 10mns. I returned it and researched a new one.
    I purchased this one and I am very, very happy. Seeing the amount of dust it picks up everytime I use it and how clean my carpet afterwards. I am pleased.
    The suction is powerful and the motorised brush is making a huge difference so I have it on when I use it on the carpet.
    The only issue is the battery.. It doesn’t last 45mns for me. I would say 20mns top which isn’t enough to hoover the entire fla

  32. Chris Harding says:

    The suction and cleaning of floors is excellent. There are a couple of things to note. Most people move a vacuum cleaner backwards and forwards. It’s important to note that with cordless models if the brush bar is rotating you cannot do this without lifting the head off the carpet slightly. The reason being the protection device will trip out as it thinks the bar has jammed. This isn’t a fault, but it’s not something I was used to and is something to be aware of . Also, because it is so good at sucking up the dust and hairs the collection bin has to be emptied regularly and initially very quickly.
    Run time isn’t huge, but then it’s so easy to use a quick regular run over is all that’s needed. I have to admit I am pleasantly surprised by the quality and effectiveness of this little vacuum and have no reservations in recommending it, in my opinion in preference to the Dyson or any of the others.

  33. Chris Chin says:

     United Kingdom

    I am extremely pleased with this purchase. The suction power is excellent, the battery lasts long enough the maneuverability is great and I highly recommend it. The only downsize (though not for me) could be the weight which is I presume is with any cordless vacuum cleaner on the same range of prices (Few grams less or more won’t make any difference, I guess).

    Basically, the shortlist was Vax blad4, Dyson v7/v8 and Shark IZ300uk.

    Based on research Vax is more powerful than Shark, and more suitable for my needs.

    I didn’t choose Dyson because the model v7/v8 wasn’t on sale on Black Friday and the charging is via docking which means the vacuum cleaner has to stay where the docking/socket is located. With Vax, I can have the battery detached and charging on the kitchen counter while the vacuum is stored away.

    Overall I am super happy and I highly recommend it.

    This Vax ONEPWR Blade 4 Pet replaces my original Vax Blade from about four years ago – it still works but is minus one wheel and will now be used for DIY projects. The general and look design, usage and handling of the Blade4 hasn’t changed but the increase in power certainly has made an amazing difference! The separate battery charger is also a great idea as is the addition of the ‘powered’ pet hair head tool. I am pleased that the tools (brush and nozzle accessories) also have exactly the same fitting as the original model and are therefore interchangeable, this, I believe, is a generous design feature by the people at Vax.

    This is an affordable vacuum cleaner which does give a decent performance. It comes with 3 attachments and has some good features such as a 45 minute battery life; LED floor head so you can light up where you are cleaning; wall mount attachment; removable battery for charging and of course bagless.
    It has 2 power modes. I find the booster mode is a bit too strong for my carpets so I tend to keep it on regular. I have 2 dogs and it is good for picking up dog hairs and smaller debris.
    It should be remembered that this is a mid range vacuum and so for the money I think it’s quite good.

    This is great for a quick whip round and for less used rooms. It handles dog hairs pretty well, but I still prefer to go round with my conventional vacuum cleaner on heavily used areas each week (mainly the living room).
    Absolutely love the convenience of not being tied to an electric socket, and not having dust bags to dispose of.
    Normal use on floors is fine but I do find it a bit heavy on the wrist when cleaning the stairs or my car (which also fills up with dog hairs surprisingly quickly).

    This is my first cordless vacuum that I’ve bought. Choosing one with just reviews to go by is hard. But I’m so pleased with this one.

    It has two settings one that auto turns the brushes and a power boost. I find the auto good for my carpet and hard floors and I use the normal setting for my rugs and lino.
    I’ve used the boost a couple of times which I use for tougher areas.
    I hoover once a week and when I first went round the flat with this, I filled the container twice!
    I find the suction really good for a cordless, it is annoying that it doesn’t stand up right on its own but I’ve got the wall mount for storage and I just rest it on something when I’m moving things around mind clean.
    All in all I’m happy with my purchase and I would reccomend

    I have to say I actually love this Vax I knew my old vacuum wasn’t working that well but when I vacuumed my bedroom I was so shocked and disgusted with what I got up off the carpet that wasn’t visible to the naked eye I realised just how well this Vax was working. We have a dog who shed loads of fur and a bird who is constantly chucking seeds out and this deals with it all so easily. The stairs I used the smaller attachment but this wasn’t as easy as I expected it could be just where I wasn’t used to using a mini roller to do them so I’m going to keep trying but over all I have to say I’m very impressed with this price wise it’s good value for money definitely, it does a really good job and it’s small enough to hide in a corner out of the way if you don’t have much space.

  39. MylesD72milzhl says:

    I purchased this as I had problems with my other vacuum which I purchased from another manufacturer. Apart from needing a new vacuum, I was wanting something that dealt with pet hairs (in my case my cat)
    I have three short haired rugs in my front room which I thought were somewhat clean. I only used this vacuum for the first time & was so shocked at the amount of cat hair that was hidden in my front room rugs.
    I have to be honest & say the Vax One Blade 4 Pet vacuum is the most impressive system I have purchased. It is amazing. I cannot say what the stair attachment is like, as don’t have any stairs, but can’t wait to use this attachment on my car upholstery.
    Another highlight of this vacuum is being able to wash the filter unit, rather than having to shop around for replacement filters. The hand held unit is easy to use, but I found the battery slightly heavier than expected; having said that, I would recommend this vacuum to anybody that has pets in their home (or just messy children) Highly impressive.

    For the size I wasn’t expecting much. I was so wrong it works brilliantly and being disabled a light hoover that works this well is a gods send. I was amazed at how light it is. I put the suction on max which is what I have had to do with other hoovers on my carpet, however it was too powerful so I had to reduce it down. Its absolutely brilliant and worth every penny. I can now hoover pain free (mostly) wish I’d got one sooner.

  41. Andrew Krok says:

     United Kingdom

    The best thing about this vacuum cleaner is that fact that I’m not tethered to an electrical cable while I clean. Once the vacuum is charged I can compile it the way I need and get on with cleaning. For most tasks I tend to have the long attachment on. It lets me vacuum my carpets and hard floors. For getting into small spaces I found that the flexible attachment is excellent.
    The suction is powerful and lifts everything. It’s exceptionally easy to empty too.
    I can get all of my vacuuming done easily with a charge.
    It’s quick to charge and easy to clip the battery back in again. Also it doesn’t take up a lot of space to store in between uses.

    Great suctio

    I admit I was a little nervous when I bought this vacuum cleaner because in the past I have always bought reconditioned machines but unfortunately to be honest they were not worth the money paid so I decided to buy “New” and what a surprise I got when this cleaner arrived! (Next day delivery) I quickly assemble the machine, put the battery on charge and once the battery indicater told me the battery is fully charged around my ground floor flat. It was so quiet and picked up the bits on the carpet with ease and when I had finished it was so simple to empty the dust etc into the bin. I can’t praise this cleaner enough, just fantastic, oh, by the way full instructions can be downloaded from the net.

  44. DollieCarden says:

     United Kingdom

    I would give the vacuum cleaner five stars apart from a few niggles. The first is that I find it quite difficult to get the battery out of the charger, and the second is that the clip attaching the wand to the power unit is really stiff, so it takes a bit of effort to convert it into a handheld cleaner. The final niggle is that trying to snap the dust container back into the unit takes a few goes before it clicks into place. Apart from that, I found the suction really good, even without using the boost button, and the battery is fine for what I want (I couldn’t do the whole house though).

    We purchased this to replace a cheaper unbranded one that we only use upstairs. So much better and would suffice as our main hoover. Adjustable suction settings and a decent selection of tools.
    Minor annoyance is the charger is not wall mountable and you have to remove the battery to charge it.

    Overall good performance but would benefit from a better weight and balance ratio between the top where the battery and handle are located and the brush.
    A lighter handle or heavier brush head would make this vacuum easier to use.
    The shorter head for stairs cleaning etc is easier to use.
    The light on the cleaning head is a good feature and great for under furniture etc.
    Battery life is ok, I can clean my small house on one charge.
    Easy to empty.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI researched a lot as wanted a cordless but couldn’t afford to buy a Dyson!
    We had a Dyson ball for years and it started to die and I’d wanted a hand held for a long time.
    We have 2 cats, so there’s hair everywhere and we moved somewhere with laminate flooring and didn’t realise how many crumbs we make!
    This Vax is perfect for just running over the floors quickly, and I love the light! It means you can see along the edges of the kitchen cabinets! It’s great.
    The suction is great. It gets all the cat hairs of the sofa and carpets.
    It’s great on the stairs too, so much easier than an upright!

    I was concerned about the bin capacity, but it’s fine. If I’m doing the whole house on a proper clean I have to empty about 3 times, but we’ve got a 4 bedroom house and I don’t think that’s bad.
    The battery will do the whole house in one go or last for over a week if just refreshing the lounge and kitchen areas.

    The only downside is I have weak shoulders and this sometimes they ache after using it for a while, and it’s just because the weight is by your hand rather than by the floor. Honestly I’d probably ache after I used any cordless, so I don’t know how it compares to others.

    All in all, we are over the moon with it! It just sits in the wall behind the door, its so handy and it works so well!!

    I think it’s a bargain for the price! I don’t think that a super expensive one would be that much better!

    Good little cordless vacuum, works well in the kitchen & handy not to have to keep carry a hoover upstairs, the downside is the light that comes on when you have the brush head going doesn’t come on when just using the normal suction without the brushes which is slightly annoying as the light is a good feature to have & it certainly helps you see dust that you might miss without the light!

Took us a while to work out why the battery wasn’t charging (you have to push it right down – I was worried we would break it!). Holds charge for a good amount of time. It cleans out 4 bed house on 1 charge including the stairs. Picks up all pet hair without problems. Overall very pleased.

    Bought this to replace a Dyson. Battery life is good well over double that of the Dyson. Downside is you have to remove the battery to charge it, so loses marks there. Very manoeuvrable, good auction, good light on the main brush head. On balance should have stayed with Dyson, BUT this came with a 3 year warranty. Your call!!

    Great little vacuum, attachments are a little hard to swap to begin with but soon loosen to a nice fit, the only downside is the wall stand, a bit flimsy and nowhere to store extra accessoriess

    This vacuum does what it should – good suction, good accessories & works well. It’s not cheap but you get what you pay for.

    Assembly was fairly easy and the Vacuum performed as well as I expected. It is a bit ‘handle heavy’ compared to conventional vacuums but you soon get used to it. The dirt drum needs more frequent emptying than I expected and taking the drum off and reconnecting is a little fiddly. Suction power is very good but the clear plastic brush head quickly became ‘cloudy’ which gave the impression that the dirt was collecting at the head rather than travelling up to the dirt drum. This in fact did not happen but it was an initial cause for concern. My telephone call to Vax Customer Service to clarify this situation proved very unhelpful as I was merely told to ‘contact your Retailer’ rather than offering any helpful advice!

    Plus points: lightweight yet great suction. Battery lasts a decent time and charges quickly.
    Negative points: Absolutely ok when using upright but when going under tables etc and on stairs, the bit of the handle that I find easiest to hold it by is where the buttons are – and so keep turning it off.
    Also, if doing a thorough clean (moving all furniture rather than going round larger heavier items) the battery will not do whole house (large detached) but ok otherwise. To pre-empt this it was my intention to buy a spare battery to swap half way through so VERY DISAPPOINTED to find when registering our product that there is a package available with spare battery included for less extra money than getting the battery separately. Would really of liked to have known about this package deal when buying.

    I got this one when my older version finally packed in. It’s a bit heavier, for me anyway, but it’s got extra power compared to my older version. I like that the battery is charged separately so it can be put somewhere discreet without the whole unit being on display.

    Product is easily assembled and comes with tools. It’s fairly lightweight and dexterous enough to get beneath tables and settees and the like. I have two whippets who although have a fine coat, shed quite a bit and have not yet found any problem with dust, hair and even bits of broken bone removal. Using the handle part along with a brush tool the stairs are easily cleaned but the dust collector is not very large. As to staying power, beside my other battery powered cleaner, it lasts much longer. A unit comes with the cleaner so that the battery can be charged and there is an indicator next to the push button start that lets you see how much power there is left… my downstairs area is about forty-seven square metres and I charge it up twice a week.

    Might get a tad heavy for some people, I find it fine but I think my Nan would probably struggle with it. Besides that it’s fab! Easy to use the floor cleaner is great with the lights let’s you find all the dirt battery seems to last ages! Great for stairs as you can make it handheld too.

    With so many Cordless Vacs available it was a minefield working out which one to purchase. I carefully looked through various reviews on and off Amazon to get a general feel for different vacuums. I compared what I could get for around 200 at the time and this was on offer at 199.

    The genuine reviews for the Vax are very positive and I’m actually quite impresses. Think I was sort of expecting it to be a bit pants compared to a corded vacuum – it’s actually really good.

    Pros – Nice design, quality build and sucks really well on Carpets – perfect if you have pets.

    Cons – Minor – could do with a spare battery, we might buy one but they are currently 79. And slightly heavier than other makes – not a problem for me as I prefer the better build quality.

    I’ve come to the conclusion that none of these cordless vacuums are especially good – they all fail to pick up larger debris, clean close to the edges, or do much at all on hard floors. This one distinguishes itself in that it picks up superbly on carpet, so its portability makes it great on stairs and for a quick clean up in a room, but you have to change head to get right up to the sides and into the corners. Having used a fed different cordless vaccums I think that this is probably as good as a cordless vacuum can get.

    I use this product for everyday cleaning and it is very light and manoeuvrable. It has strong suction and cleans very well, better i would say than my Dyson? My only dislike is the power buttons are very easy to catch whilst putting it away, thus starting it unnecessarily?? A very minor niggle for a fantastic produc

    Previous model: Slim Vac Pet Plus, which gave up the ghost; parts replaced with secondhand bits from other slim vacs, due to lack of available spares.

    Looked at other makes & models – decided on this vax after comparing price vs. reliabilty & performance via posted reviews & our own experience with vax products: carpet cleaner, corded hoover & the vax slim cordless.

    So far, very happy with it!

    Having two big shedding dogs in the house (Labrador and Newfoundland) we have always gone for a big heavy powerful hoover. Our last Dyson animal recently broke so we decided on a change and went for the battery operated Vax Blade 4 pet. For starters it has better suction than the Dyson, is lighter than the Dyson, is easier to use than the Dyson, more manouvreable than the Dyson and it has headlights so that you can see under things as it works. The battery charges up in a couple of hours and it’s good for 30-45 minutes depending on which feature you use. The suction is so good I don’t need to use the turbo button. You could alwasy get a secong battery if you are on a marathon hoovering session.
    The only way the Dyson is better is that the Dyson has a 1.5l collecting bin and the Vax is only 0.6l. However, it is very easy to empty and as it is so manouvreable it is no problem.
    In short, it is a revelation. I would thoroughly recommend it.

    This is a superb vacuum cleaner. I decided to read as many reviews on it as I could. Nearly all of them were very favourable with ample justification. I couldn’t find out from the product description what the voltage was. When I did discover that it was 18 volts I admit that I was a bit disappointed as I thought that it would not be powerful enough. But my confidence was very quickly fully restored when I started using it. It is, in fact, very powerful in spite of it’s relatively low voltage. The suction power is terrific and the battery life is excellent. It is so effective that I have rarely needed to use the booster mode. If that is used then the battery does naturally run out of power rapidly. But normal power is usually ample and really good. It is light and easy to use. The dust box is very easy to empty and clean. All in all I think this is probably the best vacuum cleaner that I’ve ever owned in just about every respect.

    Decided to purchase a Vax cordless hoover, and so glad I did it is great. I have had cheaper models but they aren’t worth it. Spend a bit more and you won’t be disappointed. It’s lightweight , easy to empty, battery lasts 45 minutes on normal power, but if you use the turbo button that time will be reduced to 30 minutes. I now look forward to hoovering as it’s so quick and easy. Will definitely buy this item agai

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI did not think that it would be so good, bought it mainly for the light weight and more convenient size, but the standard suction power was more than adequate and did not have to use the highest level hardly at all, taking the battery out after each session seemed to prolong it’s charge, and cleaning it out every time will i am sure make it last longer, overall well impressed.

    I love this vacuum cleaner and can not praise it enough. The standard suction for hard floors is sufficient to clear up any mess but the power suction for the carpets is amazing. I have always struggled to find a hoover that would pick up the hair from my ragdoll cat and this does it perfectly. The movement is very easy to manage and goes flat enough to go under the sofa and coffee table. It is a little heavier than I have been used to but do not find that a problem at all. I wish I had bought one earlier.

    The Vax ONEPWR Blade 4 is a very nice vacuum cleaner. It is lightweight and makes it nice and easy to grab and clean the areas that need a quick once over. Ideal for the kitchen area. The nice thing about cordless vacuum like the Vax ONEPWR Blade 4 is that they make life a little easier. I keep the Vax ONEPWR Blade 4 upstairs. It allows me to quickly manoeuvre around the house quickly and vacuum the dust.

    It is light and it also charges quickly. A very handy piece of equipment. It has multiple attachments and a pet brush which you can attch and it makes cleaning stairs , upholstery a breeze. It is also handy for the car, so that is a bonus. Only downside is the battery, if it came with a spare, it would have been a clincher; so you can charge one, while using the other. It’s only a minor niggle.
    Overall, a great purchase.

    I have used this everyday since I’ve had it. Tried it on every part of my home. Great suction, very versatile. Yes it’s a bit top heavy and I wish the battery lasted longer when on the highest power but would buy it again after studying many cordless vacuum cleaner this is good value.

    Golden Review Award: 14 From Our UsersExtremely happy with the new Vax! I bought this for my 75 years old mother who was finding her Dyson ball too cumbersome to lift up the stairs, plus on her new thick carpet the suction was so powerful it wouldn’t actually move much. This new Vax has been absolutely brilliant. It was a doddle to assemble, and equally easy to modify to it’s smaller, handheld size. The mini pet attachment is just the right size for the stairs too. It’s super lightweight, it goes really flat, which is great to get under tables etc, so more versatile than our Dyson. It’s very handy right now with the nozzle attachment for dealing with spiders too. I like the fact you can choose the suction power and can use a ‘boost’ of power, you can choose to have the head rotating or not too. Good that it has a light that others don’t have too. It charges fast and easy. Because it’s not really a chore now, she vacuums more, which means less build up of stuff to clean up, so better all around. Very happy to recommend.

    I have been using the Blade 3 version of this VAX cordless cleaner and i have to say this is much better. Suction is fantastic , it gets in deep to the carpets and they look so much cleaner. The added tools make it work even better , a smaller brush head make cleaning the stairs almost a joy. It is easy to fit together , it is so lightweight that i have no difficulty moving it around our 3 storey house. The battery charger is small and compact, the only niggle i have is the battery life could be a bit longer but now i have the two it makes life easier . I really recommend this great cordless vacuum cleaner.

    Easily picks up animal hairs, dust and food crumbs – more than enough battery life to go days without a recharge. Only downside with this design is unlike the Shark it can’t stand up on its own when you need o pause during the cleaning. It has to be laid down on the floor and if you try to lean it up against a piece of furniture because of its weight distribution it will inevitably slide forward or fall over which caused a minor injury sometimes. Otherwise, it’s faultless.

    With a hedonistic labrador/golden retriever cross careering around the house, this Vax “for pet” (sic) cordless vacuum is an absolute godsend.

    I cannot impress enough how lightweight this is. My mother in law had a go on her last visit and and has ordered one. She does not like heavy lifting. She could virtually throw this thing up the stairs!

    The blade modes were confusing at first, with a button that can turn off the “rollers” which facilitate vacuuming on carpet. This is a perfect mode for hard floors. The suction is good. The vac is super quiet, which is brilliant when I’m bored at 5am. The separate attachment is perfect for the stairs and works well.

    The separate battery, rather than having to mount the vacuum or dock it into a charger, is brilliant. It charges quickly (perhaps just under an hour) and lasted for a good 20/30 minutes before needing a charge, which is perfectly fine for me.

  79. Leicester Mercury says:

    I’ve been enslaved by the power lead for so long that using this Vax was like setting foot in another dimension, it is almost perfect and it pains me to not give it a perfect five out of five, the positives are many, it is easy to assemble and is extremely powerful, it gives a nice clean wherever it goes and although noisy is not so noisy as to be off-putting.

    The negatives are minor things that only frustrate a little bit, such as not being able to use the stand as it is quite wide so it is not able to stand, the dust filter does not seem to come out so it is a little fiddly to get in there and clean it and the price for me is maybe 50 too high, but that is just me,

    But this is easily an almost five star review and as I said it saddens me to only give it 4 and three quarter stars.

    I’m pleased with this vacuum.

    Out of the box it is easy to set up and put together – all quite intuitive.

    The battery needs charging upon arrival and this will take several hours. The battery is charged externally from the vacuum – so you don’t plug a charging cable into the vacuum itself.

    In use, it does suck up the dust and dirt very effectively and with a very decent amount of suction. The extra head works well to get the hairs off the dog bed.

    What I would say is that it is significantly heavier than the design cordless vacuum I own.

    But overall it does a good job and will get a lot use in our household.

    I gave this a little while before writing my review so I could really get to grips with it and decide whether it’s worth the price tag as I don’t usually spend over 100 on any vacuum.
    I would also normally use a corded model, as they tend to have better suction and there are no worries of them running out. I’ve chosen to keep this vacuum upstairs to save me lugging my massive George around and my back thanks me for it. Once fully charged the run time is plenty long enough to get the whole of the upstairs finished. I like the boost button that spins the brush inside the head and you can really feel the suction when you use it, but it does drain the battery quickly when using this particular mode.
    As with all hand-helds, although fairly straightforward to empty, I will need to be emptied often as it doesn’t hold a lot of debris.
    Overall it’s a great vacuum but I think the price could be more reasonable, under the 200 mark.

    The Vax cordless Vac is very easy to assemble and use. The battery requires around 3 hours for a full charge and gives a good 40- 45 minutes of use. Some nice brushes and tools with this model to help with more ingrained carpets, particularly for pet owners or for excess human hair. Easily adjusts to suit different surfaces such as stairs or crooks and crannies. The dust holder is easy to empty and the Vac is sturdy and slimline allowing for easy storage. A very efficient piece of equipment.

    I am happy to report that the Vax Blade 4 Pet Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is a really effective ‘wand stle’ cleaner that really meets my expectations.

    The added pet tools is a real bonus if your home is blessed with pets.
    It allows you to achive a deep responsive clean.

    Vax make great cleaners, this is one of their best and that is saying something

    You can easily read all the specs for your self but be reassured this is a a great cleaner if you have pets and you need a better wand cleaner.
    Thanks for reading.
