#gifted I am happy to say that even the box of the product impressed me.The vacuum comes well packed in a environment friendly packaging (no plastic), each part is carefully wraparound a paper sleeve.The vacuum feels very premium and well designed.I loved the cream colour and all the extra bits that comes with the vacuum.I took me few minutes to assemble the whole machine.The instructions are bit confusing, as it cover not just the model i have, but other models too (with different stand, parts and extras)Once assembled i could not resist and have a go with the vacuum round the house.The suction is great, and i love the auto function! On the turbo function, the vacuum battery did not last too long.My only complain is: you can not charge the vacuum properly till you fix the charging holder to the wall.I really did not like that, i thought if some elderly purchased the product, got home, open the box and realise that you need to fix the charger station to the wall?! I think this is a let down for the product. Please think about this flaw on future products. Think about people how can’t do this kind of DYI or don’t have the tools to do.Apart from that I’m well impressed, I am a big fan of AEG products, and i have spread the word about this amazing product to my family, friends, work colleagues and everyone else who is into household technology like me.AEG keep going with the great work in making our life easer, on daily tasks.

#giftedUpon arrival I was surprised at how small and compact the box was. It was fairly easy to assemble and switch on without reading the instructions.There are 3 speed settings. Low, mid, turbo. I found turbo was the best to lift deep dust but there is only a short battery life of a few minutes with this. I noticed a high pitched ringing noise on turbo mode which did irritate my ears a bit. It was similar to having tinnitus so I found that I was sensitive to this.The bin was confusing to remove on the first go but when you realise that it is magnetically attached, it is almost effortless to remove. To empty the bin was a little bit of a faff but it is designed well to be able to clean the bin area and filters.The package came with 2 nozzles and a wall mount unit. Unfortunately the wall mount unit had no slots to hold the tools so they had to go in a cupboard. I find removing the vacuum from the wall mount is rather effortless and the charge status flashes to show the product is charging.The head does get stuck on the edges of the sofa when hoovering and doesn''t glide around corners as well as my other cordless vacuum but it seems to pick up bits better and I enjoy the little light on the front as a bit of a novelty.Overall, I would recommend this product for household cleaning of carpets and hard floors.

#GIFTED After receiving the AP81UB25SH I was keen to test it out against our current household cleaner. First impressions played out - the AEG 8000 series is not only a very smart, modern-looking product, it backs its looks with suction power, battery life and ease of use thanks to the incredibly light weight. The killer feature is the light on the UltimatePower Bristle cleaning head - sounds like a gimmick but genuinely has saved me time in avoiding going over the same areas (especially under tables/sofas) now that I can actually see what I'm cleaning! The AEG 8000 Series is a smart, minimalist, lightweight cleaner with all the power and smarts to cope with a full household clean. If you're in the market for a cordless vacuum cleaner this needs to be high on your shortlist.

#GiftedThe vacume was packaged well as didn''t take long to assemble. The lithium battery felt a little heavy but balanced well when the vacume was together. The cream colour does let the vacume down, the other models look modern and appealing, whereby the model I received to test does look like it''s from the cheaper product range. Although this doesn''t detract from the performance of the vacume.The vacume is easy to empty, although the waste cylinder should have had a larger capacity.The vacume needed to be charged, however, that was to be expected. The charging point Is an excellent feature. My husband used the screws which were supplied with the vacume, however, they were not strong enough to hold it to the wall. We used some stronger screws and it holds the vacume and charging point much better.First use of the vacume, I used the automatic setting and it easily adapted to the different floor surfaces. From rugs to carpets to hard floors, the suction was adapting perfectly. I used the hand-held on my stairs and used the brush accessories to get into the corners and found that it took less time than my previous vacume. The adjustable tube made it easy to adapt to different heights which my hubby found useful.There was a small place for the brush accessories which was a nice touch.The light feature helps me to see under the settee and the vacume easily reached under my furniture.The vacume is easy to use, it cleans well and has made a noticeable difference to my cleaning routine so far.

#Gifted - I was very unsure whether an AEG vacuum was going to live up to expectations as I have been an avid user of a well known bagless competitor for many years.I have been hugely impressed - the manufacture quality, simplicity to assemble and the attention to detail is impressive. Even the boxes/ plastic free packaging and instructions are all jargon free and easy to understand.The vacuum itself charges quickly, has good storage dimensions, and most importantly is sturdy, yet impressively lightweight when in use. It floss nicely to help get under furniture and has a handy light on the front, just like vacuums did when I was a child!The suction has really shown me how poor my last vacuum was, as the level of dirt I’m now getting from my clean looking carpets is significant. The tools, brushes and included attachments are limited with this entry level version, however it covers my needs perfectly. I have no ‘even better if’s’ and can only give positive feedback for this get product.

#gifted I really liked this vacuum from the moment I picked it up. The weight distribution is spot on and is easy to carry and use around your house. The design is sleek and it is a well put together piece of kit. It is very simply to use with only an ON/OFF switch and a power level switch beside that, it really is as simple as grab and go. The model I received only came with one adaptor which I would have liked to have seen given a holder on the vacuum or the charging holder for ease of storage. I know you can purchase extra attachments from the supplier so it would be worth looking into. The power of the vacuum overall is good and the dust chamber can easily cope with the whole house but can the battery? This is my only gripe with this product, run time is stated at 60 minutes but the best I''ve managed is 45 minutes to date. Thankfully the vacuum auto charges as soon as you place it it the holder so there''s no way of forgetting to charge it.I would still recommend looking at this modal as your next purchase
