Unlimited 7 – our most flexible vacuum yet.

Powerhouse Stick Vac. Highly Recommend.

I bought this vac a week ago and just love this new Bosch stick vac. This is German technology and made so it is quite robust and not flimsy to use. Register your product to get 10years warranty on the motor. It is so powerful and so quiet for a vac (esp on Eco mode). I also am so impressed at how much dust I'm pulling out of my carpets and the mattress. Whilst I used to vac every four to five days with our old ten year stick vac and get what I thought was a good result, it’s nothing like I’m getting using the Bosch Rechargeable vacuum cleaner. I’m so impressed. Due to this success i have been vacuuming every day since purchasing and will continue to vac daily until the dust has been fully pulled from the carpet and mattress. The LED lights on the powerhead are brilliant for highlighting dust etc on wooden and tiled floors. I use the Eco (lower battery mode) option on these types of floors. On carpet I use the Turbo mode. This does drain the battery quickly but I believe necessary to draw the dust out of the carpets/mattress. You do have to treat the powerhead with care as it does want to occasionally bind up or stop on some rugs or sections of hard carpet but it is easily managed and in these tough areas I find pulling back gets better results than pushing. Otherwise carpet use is easy peasy. Whilst the recommendation on the filter canister is to clean the internal filter at the end of the month. I’m doing it after every use and that is due to after a few days of use, the gap between internal and outer filter was getting wedged tight with dust. To me, if this filter isn’t cleaned after each use you are inhibiting the vac’s power and you will get a much better clean everytime. The way the filter compacts the dust is brilliant. I also use a small powerful mini blower to really give the Bosch filters and canister a thorough clean. Grateful this product comes with two 3.0Ah batteries as I can use one whilst the other is on charge. Thankfully the power head unit and stick part has excellent rotation and minimal height. Now I can get this stick vac right under our bed which has such limited access. Whereas with our old stick vac’d I wasn’t able to get the reach. So really happy I can now get rid of that dust. If I had the option instead of just a 4 rating if I had the option I would have given 4.5 or 4.75 out of 5 but for three things which are not big issues in the scheme of things but noticeable to me. One, despite being quite a solid and robust feeling unit (big tick) there is a very small amount of play between the motor/collection canister part and the top of the stick part. Secondly, the motion of having to push the red release on the battery whilst simultaneously pulling the battery off the charger or vac feels awkward & counterintuitive. A third point is aligning the collection canister back into the motor part. It is probably more a “the more I practice the better I get” but I find it doesn’t engage easily. I never force it and just keep trying to join it together. Cause when it does properly engage with a crisp click snap shut, it just feels solid and right. So if you have this issue too, just be patient, don’t force it shut and realign. I haven’t installed the wall bracket as yet but I’m looking forward to doing so and having all the accessories neatly together. Yes I would highly recommend this stick vac.
