With two small children who constantly make mess, I found the Lupe cordless vacuum an absolute godsend! I loved it for two very obvious reason - it’s compact cordless. Being an upright cordless (there aren’t many of them apparently) I was able to store it in my kitchen cupboard and grab it whenever I needed to give the floor a quick going over. The fact its cordless meant I could run it all over the house in minutes. It’s not very heavy so taking it upstairs was no trouble at all. This certainly saved me time and backache when cleaning!
I was really impressed with the suction, having tested a few other cordless vacuums this one was definitely more powerful, especially when it came to sucking up pet hair from carpets. The brush head easily swivels in all directions making it perfect for getting into corners.
I found it incredibly easy to set-up and don’t think I even needed to look at the instructions as it was very obvious. The battery pops in and out with ease so charging it is very simple.
When it came to emptying, again this was super simple. It’s bagless so you just unclip the central compartment and empty the rubbish at the bottom and the top by removing the filter. I’ve tested other bagless vacuums and it’s not always easy to get all the dirt out of the compartment, but the fact you can empty both ends is super convenient and means you can even rinse the compartment to keep it extra clean.
I would certainly recommend this product because of its ease to set-up, use and performance. The only cons I found were that it was easier to clean hard floors with it than carpets. It still hoovered very well and sucked up the hair and debris from the carpeted areas but it was slightly more difficult to move and unlike other corded vacuums you wouldn’t be able to hoover a shaggy rug with it.
Although I found the attachments easy to use and very efficient I didn’t find it very easy to hoover up high with them. You have to lift the whole machine up to reach the cobwebs in the corners and this became too much for my arms after a while. I think this problem totally depends how you use your vacuum, if you like to hoover all the top corners and high areas of your house then I don’t think this would be right for you and you may be better off spending your money on a cordless Dyson. If you mainly use your hoover for cleaning all floors and furniture then the Lupe cordless will probably suit you better.
If I was to change anything about this product I’d make the extension pipe longer so you don’t need to lift it up to reach the high places in your house. Apart from that I loved its convenience, ease and great performance. I totally agree with the maker’s claim that it’s built to last, it felt very well-made and sturdy. It’s certainly priced at the top end of the market, but because of the quality and performance I think it’s worth spending more on a product that should stand the test of time.
