Manufacturer's Description

Vax Air ReachThe Vax Air Reach is the lightest full size multi cyclonic upright vacuum cleaner in the world... with extra reach. If you hate lugging a heavy vacuum cleaner around your home, you’ll love the Vax Air Reach. Designed in Britain by an iconic British company, it has all the performance and capacity of a full size upright, but weighs a third less. Its long reach hose and power cord make it easy to clean high stairs and large rooms, or even valet your car.

Full size performance, a third less weight Building from the ground up, Vax used precision engineering to reduce the weight of every component, piece by piece. Their goal was to create a powerful, high performance machine in a uniquely elegant and lightweight frame. They succeeded, as Air Reach is the lightest full size multi cyclonic upright in the world.

Air Reach has all the power, performance and capacity of a full size vacuum cleaner, but without the bulkiness and weight that make others such a drag. As it’s so light, it’s easy to carry upstairs and less effort to push across your carpet, so it’s the ideal choice for older people, or for those with back problems.

Air Reach’s compact, slim design and retractable handle means it takes up less space than most uprights, so it’s perfect for modern homes where storage is at a premium.

Longer hose and cord for extra reach Air Reach has an extra long power cord and stretchy hose, giving you an astonishing total cleaning reach of 15 metres. This means you can go from room to room without unplugging and clean right to the top of your stairs, leaving Air Reach safely at the bottom.

Ideal for homes with pets Pet hair poses no problem for Air Reach, as the TurboTool easily picks up the most stubborn of hairs from stairs, upholstery and car seats. The H12 HEPA filter helps remove pollen and other allergens, making your home a more comfortable place to be, especially if you suffer from allergies. This filter is anti-bacterial too, helping to keep pet-related odours at bay.

Constant, powerful suction Air Reach has multiple cyclone technology to provide consistent suction for powerful, efficient cleaning. The air and dust sucked into the machine spins through a series of cyclones that separate out most of the dust before it reaches the filters, so they don’t get clogged. This ensures that you don’t lose suction as you clean and you never experience a frustrating drop off in performance.

Ergonomic cleaning As Air Reach has a telescopic handle, it’s comfortable for everyone to use – short or tall. It can be adjusted to 8 different heights to achieve the most ergonomic position for vacuuming.

An LED Performance Indicator quickly alerts you of any blockages, so you always know how well it’s performing. The transparent brushbar cover can be removed by releasing two clips, so it’s really easy to clean too. The dust container is quick to empty too, simply hold it over a bin and press the release button.

There are two cleaning modes so you can switch between vacuuming hard floors and carpets at the touch of a button. Simply switch the brushbar on for carpets and off again for hard floors. A space saving 3-in-1 crevice tool, dusting brush and upholstery tool is stored on board, so it's always on hand and never gets lost.

The Vax Air cylinder’s market leading 6 year guarantee gives you complete peace of mind.

Other models in this range include the Air and the Air Pet, which has an anti-bacterial HEPA filter and a TurboTool for removing pet hairs. Designed for bigger, busier homes, the Air Force has more power and double the dust capacity of standard Air uprights. A new range of Air cylinder vacuum cleaners have all the cleaning performance of a standard sized multi cyclonic cylinder, in a smaller and lighter package.

Costumer Reviews

A remarkable cleaner

Over the years I have owned many vacuum cleaners and in fairness all have done the job one way or the other upright and and cylinder. I have just replaced my Dyson upright with a Vax Mach Air Reach; this is without a doubt the best cleaner I have ever owned. Firstly it is very lightweight and easy to manoeuvre, The Mach Air Reach comes complete with integral hose that reached very easily to the top of the stairs it also comes with a very good motorised head I was able to clean the stairs easily and quickly you will be amazed at the suction, the motorised head was also perfect in removing cat hairs from cushions something my Dyson was not able to do, I have two Main Coons cats. The long reach wand cleaned my curtains and pelmets something I have found difficult in the past on board tools was great. I tried an experiment firstly I cleaned my carpets with my Dyson cleaner then I went over the same carpets with the new Vax, you must try this yourself the Vax was lifting a lot more from the same carpets.

When it comes to using this machine as an upright cleaner it will not disappoint either, the motorised bar is efficient and easy to turn off for use on solid floors, the head is very responsive going round furniture with ease. I must also mention the cleaning of the brush roller bar instead of having to turn the vacuum cleaner over you can get to any blockage from the top of the roller bar by just unclipping the top roller bar cover. Emptying was very easy just one button and you are done, Vax also provides you with a very long cable with will almost cover your entire house from one socket!

I have been trying very hard to say something negative about this cleaner it is very difficult as Vax obviously have listened to the customer.

This is without a doubt a fantastic cleaner with a six year guarantee you can't go wrong highly recommend

I have had my Mach Air Reach now 2 weeks and there are things I love about it and some things that I would change. I am in the middle of moving house so I have put the machine to a good test.

I love the size of the machine as it stores away very easily and the length of cable allows me to plug in 1 room and vacuum through to the next. Although I wish there was a way the cable automatically retracted as there is a lot of cable to wrap round at the back of the machine.

I love the switch that allows me swap between carpets and hard floors. My previous vacuum cleaner only did carpets so I think this is a big plus for this machine.

The extension hose is another plus for this version of the Vax Mach Air which allows you to clean stairs top to bottom easily. The machine is so light weight you can carry it up the stairs no problem unlike my Dyson which was so heavy I used to bang it up the stairs.

I do find the hose attached to the machine a bit fiddly where you pull it out from the back. It is supported by a clip that does not come off so I was forever stretching the hose from under this clip. The clip is designed to stabilise the machine so when you pull it along it does not tip over like my Dyson did so it is good in this way. The hose fittings do fit/clip together easily.

The Handle to the machine does act as a telescopic wand type so you can pull it out completely and attach the hose too it and use the various tools. I would have liked the handle to have been a little longer.

I like the extra tools it comes with which are handy for stairs and adding the extra little brush allows me to do skirtings and corners of the ceilings. There is a turbo tool which is handy for pet hair but the machine does a fairly good job at pet hairs anyway. It is a shame that all the tools can not fit on the machine but I guess they are trying to keep the overall weight down.

The power of the machine is good as in my first time of vacuuming I filled the cylinder with dirt and hair etc. and my house is vacuumed every other day. So it seemed to get the dirt and hair that my Dyson did not get and it was much quieter too. This was strange as my Dyson seemed to have more power as it used to pull the carpet up where the Mach Air did not.

Emptying the machine was different story as when I came to empty it into my wheelie bin the whole thing fell into my bin. I and the machine ended up covered in dust so just be careful. I did prefer my Dyson that while holding the handle you pulled the lever and it emptied with this machine you have to unclip at the bottom. I do wish it could hold a bit more dirt etc. as my Dyson does hold more in its cylinder.

Overall the Vax Mach Air does tick more boxes than my Dyson. It is lighter and quieter. It will travel further and with the extra hose reach further. It is brilliant to go from carpet to hard floors with the touch of a button. It is a practical and user friendly machine.
