Answers to frequently asked questions

Is a bagless vacuum cleaner suitable for allergy sufferers?

A bagless model allows for easier emptying and lower maintenance costs, but requires extra care when removing the contents, as some dust may be released when emptying. For households with very sensitive allergy sufferers, it is also recommended to check out models with HEPA filtration.

What surfaces is the vacuum cleaner best suited for?

The compact design and wet and dry vacuuming capabilities make it suitable for hard floors, upholstered furniture, car surfaces and smaller carpets. However, suction power may be limited more quickly on dense carpets or larger surfaces.

How often should the filters and container of the vacuum cleaner be cleaned?

We recommend cleaning the filters and container after each use or at least once a week with regular use, especially in households with pets. This will help maintain suction power over time and reduce the possibility of unpleasant odors developing.

Is this model suitable for removing animal hair?

A vacuum cleaner can be handy for occasional hair pick-up on hard floors and upholstered furniture, but for intensive hair removal on thick carpets, we recommend you also check out our guide to choosing a pet vacuum cleaner .
