Bosch Rechargeable Vacuum Cleaner Unlimited BCS712GB Gone are the days when vacuums need to be huge bulky and sound like a Boeing 747 to give your home a good clean, the Rechargeable Vacuum Cleaner Unlimited 7 White from Bosch is wonderfully compact and light. This makes it easy to move around the house, but the user-friendly features don’t stop there, the Flex Tube allows you to reach under furniture effortlessly and the Nozzle Foot Release makes it simple to detach the nozzle from the tube without bending over for spot cleaning. The Easy Parking Clip lets you securely hold the tool in place against a piece of furniture whilst you move the cat out of the way or have a sip of tea, however being able to stand it upright on its own would be more convenient. Saying that the Quick Stand will hold the floor unit upright whilst you use the handheld nozzle, the floor unit has a motorized brush with LED lights, handy for spotting debris under furniture or dark corners. This vacuum come with a crevice nozzle, 2in1 furniture brush and upholstery nozzle, long flexible crevice nozzle as well as a charging cable, quick charger, docking station and two exchangeable battery pack. The dual 3.0 Ah batteries offer 33% more runtime, this means you can clean up to 100m with just one battery charge, that’s about 40mins run time and when that runs out simply switch it over to carry on, no waiting around for a recharge. When the time comes to charge up the batteries the fast charger works up to three times faster than the docking station (1hr for a full charge), it is also compatible with all 18 V batteries from Bosch Home and Garden and other Power For All Alliance brands, plus the vacuum will recognise the battery and automatically get the best performance out of it. After cleaning its easy to empty the 0.3 l dustbox, just turn the red wheel and let it drop into the bin, there’s no need to wash the filter. The free 10-year motor guarantee ensures you have lots of cleaning power for years to come. The BCS712GB is a powerful and versatile little machine, you can bend and twist all over the place, get up close and personal with the skirting boards and use the various attachments for tighter spots, over head and furniture. There are three power modes to choose from which will affect the battery life, but we found it could handle most daily dust and debris on the lower setting, it did struggle a bit with pet hair on carpet particularly in high traffic areas. This is a good choice for those with mobility issues, allowing you to reach areas without bending down and take a break when needed and particularly good with hard floors, we love that added battery too, letting you getting all the cleaning done in one hit, giving you more time to enjoy messing it up again.
