AEG Animal 2-in-1 CX7-2-45AN Cordless Vacuum Cleaner with up to 45 Minutes Run Time

Got fed up of lugging out the big vacuum for quick clean ups. The AEG is great for a quick whizz round. It is light to carry upstairs. It is manoeuvrable and cleans under the bedstead. Also handy in the camper van. Good run time. Easy to empty. No searching for a socket and getting tangled with the wire. The lift-off dust-buster is good for fiddly bits. Good on hard floors and for light cleaning of carpets. For this it would get 5 stars. BUT - If you have kids, pets and a partner with a liking for DIY you may want something stronger for the really heavy cleaning, hence the 4 stars.

I did a lot of research before buying this so that I could grab a bargain in the Black Friday sale. I'm so glad I ended up buying this one! It's light, slim, the suction is great and I love the addition of the light to get into less well-lit corners. The smaller removable vaccum is perfect for the stairs and the car and although I was worried the suction wouldn't be as good, it's still great! It doesn't need emptying as often as you would expect given its small size but the amount of cat hair it manages to suck up is impressive. Very happy with my purchase.

I was quite nervous when first trying to empty the filter, however I have mastered it now. After using the machine a few times I am really pleased and impressed with how it performs. It is nice and light and easy to manoeuvre be it on carpets or on hard floor surface.

I wanted to replace our corded Dyson with a cordless 2-in-1 hoover and so began to research and read reviews for all the contenders. I was surprised to find the most expensive and heavily marketed models each seem to have some significant drawbacks in one way or another. The AEG though seemed to tick all the boxes and received consistently good reviews across multiple sources. Suffice to say, we are very pleased with the AEG. Pros: Well made and well thought out design. Easy to manoeuvre. Gets under Furniture edges really well. Great charging stand. Stands up by itself. Good suction. Motorised floor brush works great. Good battery run time. Good on hard floors or carpet. Great 2-in-1 pop-out handheld design. Easy to empty. No need to hold power button. Low power mode is handy for hoovering loose mats. Cons: Handheld brush extension could be better quality. Dirt capacity could be larger but it's not a big deal. Overall this is a great hoover which I would happily recommend.

Love this hoover, i've never had an AEG before and find it really powerful and easy to use with it being so light. Its really easy to empty once full, would highly recommend.

Apparently better than the leading brand this light, nippy machine makes easy work of cleaning floors and sairs. Mine was missing the nozzle but great customer service and hope to receive that very soon. Roller needs occasional attention (long hair gets caught) but that's very easy. The lights on the front are a bit of a novelty but i don't find them very useful. What i do love is the handheld smaller machine, fantastically convenient and very easy to attach. We're very happy customers so far.
