Vax twin cyclonic. Comet took back crap hoover with no problems. We picked up the vax for £10 less. Have just gone over areas I'd done with (supposedly more powerful) hoover and picked up loads more dust. Dust is falling nicely into bottom rather than sticking around filter. Its much easier to clean out and everything feels sturdier.
Tis rather heavy and cord is in awkward place but cord is also much longer than hoovers pet manager one so don't have to keep plugging it in.
Well, back to vacuuming
