Vax with 300 five-star reviews now better than half price in Amazon Prime deal
Amazon Prime subscribers can get a great deal on a new vacuum this spring
With spring cleaning season in full flow, the least enjoyable part for many is dragging a heavy vacuum cleaner around the house. It's easy to see why this is a dreaded part of the cleaning routine - especially if the vacuum isn't up to scratch.
There are many vacuum brands out there, however Vax is known for offering shoppers a range of vacuums with a powerful performance.
Vax is also an option for nabbing a bargain on a well loved brand - and Amazon Prime members are now in luck as they can get the Vax Air Lift 2 Pet Plus Upright Vacuum for £101.74 down from £219.99 on Amazon - over 50% off.
This corded upright vacuum is designed to give homes a thorough clean, with strong suction and dual brush bars that work well on both carpets and hard floors. The VersaClean Technology helps lift and agitate dirt as shoppers go, so it's effective across different surfaces without needing to change settings.
It also switches into a smaller, high-performance vacuum in just a few seconds, making it easy to clean places like stairs, upholstery, and the car. The Turbo Tool is handy for picking up pet hair or cleaning tight spaces like car boots, while the Textile Tool with the Tough Brush Attachment helps remove stubborn dirt from fabric surfaces. Whatever shoppers need the vacuum for, it guarantees a smooth and easy result.
If this vacuum isn't calling out to shoppers, they could opt for the Shark PowerDetect Corded Stick Vacuum Cleaner for £199.99, which has two brush-rolls and multiple sensors react and adapt for optimal performance, is designed to work in both forward and reverse for faster debris pickup and can sense floor type and adjusts brush-roll speed and suction to optimise cleaning performance. The cleaner is lightweight as it weighs less than 5kg for easy lifting. Another option could be the Dyson Ball Animal from Dyson for £279.99, which is said to automatically de-tangle hair for powerful deep cleaning on all surfaces with no loss of suction, rides on a ball for easier manoeuvrability, and is perfect for deep cleaning homes with pets.
The Vax Air Lift 2, however, has a 4.1 out of 5-star rating from a total of 546 reviews on Amazon. One shopper wrote: 'The vacuum cleaner has very good suction and leaves the carpet looking nice. The versatility of design is convenient and allows the body of the cleaner to remain whilst vacuuming walls and shelves etc whilst not being too heavy.'
'Only had it a month. Never going back to cordless, this is great. I'd say it's light compared to other corded vacuum cleaners, but obviously still a bit heavy. The only thing I don't like is that the attachments are a bit flimsy. I used the one with the rotating brush for the stairs, and it doesn't spin if it touches the carpet - not great, but it still picks up the dirt,' said another.
Another shopper wrote: 'Very pleased with this cleaner, it reaches right into corners and along the edges. It has very good suction and I would recommend it.'
However, a handful of people weren't on the same page and shared their opposing views. One wrote: 'Does a great job but it is very heavy.' Another said: 'The bottom doesn't rotate much and isn't as flexible as I assumed.'
However, with over 300 five-star reviews on Amazon and over 50% off for Prime members, the Vax Air Lift 2 sounds like a solid choice for shoppers.
