Cordless is so convenient, best thing I have ever purchased in the house, and the car is a bonus...

Buy whatever you want for the house The v8 is a decent upgrade on the v6; v6 is very very good. Then buy all the attachments for the car (flexi hose, stiff brush and dusting brush get the most use). You don’t need a separate Dyson just for the car Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

The refurb Karcher WD2 is currently £40 on the outlet website but out of stock. B&Q have them for 50 quid brand new, but for that money you could get the Titan wet and dry from Screwfix that many people on here rate very highly. I have the Macallister branded version of the same machine and it’s really good, apart from the push in hose fitting. Perfect for the car interior, great for wet use when needed and it also has a blower function for drying the car after a wash. Even used the power tool take off function a couple of times.

I've used vax wet and dry for years which has been great but bought a Dyson v6 about 6mths ago. Brilliant Hoover and so convenient as I can give the car and house a quick vacuum little and often. This means it is less of a chore so I don't mind doing it. As commented above if doing whole house we have to put a spurt on as battery lasts about 10mins on maxi power!! This is where v8 differs it has a better battery.

My experience of the smaller vacs has been similar to yours and I find a hose easier to get into smaller spaces without catching on or hitting things. Last edited by Sh1ner; 01-01-2018 at 12:03 PM. |
