The telescopic tube is made in a very thin aluminium.
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

The telescopic tube is made in a very thin aluminium. I used it less then 3 months and it got broken. It is impossible to find a spare telescopic tube for this model, FC9920/69. Just waste of 255 pounds, only because I can not find a spare telescopic tube. The vacuum cleaner is very good quality, but I am disappointed. I was expected at high quality from Philips, as I bought many years their products. Now, I am not the same opinion anymore...

avoid...
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

This vacuum cleaner worked ok for 10 months and suddenly won't start again. Contacted customer support but apparently as I changed the fuse on the plug to check if that was the cause of the failure they told me I have voided the guarantee?....so will have to take it to the tip for recycling (or pay for the repair which could be as expensive as getting a new one?). I'll buy a vacuum cleaner from a company who knows how to make these things next time....

For deep cleaning
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I tried this vacuum cleaner for the first time in my brother's home in Turkey. This was the first product I bought in my new home when I moved to England. In this country, more vertical electric cranes are preferred, but if you make your choice for this type of vehicle, the Philips model is excellent in terms of both price and performance. Gravity is very strong. Thanks to its small design, it does not take up space at home. Big head brushing at the same time during brush. This brushing feature saves me from minor stains as it breaks at home. You can easily adjust the traction force for the parquet. Maneuverability is sufficient for me since there is no ladder in my house.

Tremendously powerful
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Luckily the suction power can be varied by two controls. I usually associate Philips with quality engineering, and this product complies. It is well-designed and well-made, and easily manoeuvrable.I find it difficult to know where to grasp the main stem because of the number of buttons and tools on it. The 'manual' consists of pictograms only, and I find this irritating. Some English explanation would have been useful.

An utter disappointment! Don't bother
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I bought this vacuum based on the reviews - and for 2 years it did a good job....suction was ok but not fantastic and certainly not as good as Miele or Dyson alternatives. It then lost all suction. Checked everything, cleaned filters etc and nothing. I have never had a vacuum last such a short time and will never be buying a Phillips again.

Good Dyson alternative

Strong suction on various surfaces, lots of different setting, sturdy and easy to clean. Unfortunately also quite chunky so will take up a lot of space

Powerful Vacuum Cleaner
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

We were always using Philips vacuum cleaner in our home country and after moving to UK, I bought another popular brand here to give a try. It was a 800W cleaner but after using it for 6 months, it lost most of its power although we were cleaning it regularly. And the build quality was cheap and it doesn't have many accessories with it. After 1 year, we decided to change it and bought this one. Although it says as 650W, I can clearly say that it is much more powerful than the old one with great vacuum skills and it has all necessary accessories inside to clean everywhere in the home. It is large and bulky, not the easiest about manoeuvrability side but I can definetely recommend it.

Long Term Review..... Excellent product.
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

We're using this vacuum since Jan 2019. Really happy with the product. Initially it felt like less power.... compared to our old Philips Vacuum with 2500w power...... but it's very much capable of doing the job well with much lesser power consumption. Excellent product.

Silence is key for me, and it does
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I used in the past Philips again for a silence and it was again proof itself.Not always you need full power and you can lower the suction power and even in the midnight you can easily use it without disturbing the people at home or neighbours.In normal suction power it is pulling a little bit my full floor carpet , so it has good enough power that if you are looking for power.I know everyone trying to get Dyson I don't see any point. I used my old one broken and borrow from my friend Dyson it was terribly noisy and not suck the dust enough, maybe it is old but even that it is too noisy and no opportunity on that machine to lower the suction and make it silent.In UK Philips is not well known , but you can give it a try.

Great vac for the price
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Had this for a couple of weeks, bought to replace a Dyson cylinder vac that can't be repaired. Pros are: Great suction, really quiet, easy to empty dust container. Cons are: the tool storage is in a daft place it gets in the way being on the hose, it doesn't come with a turbo brush head and it won't stand on the stairs. However you can get a turbo brush designed for another vac if you buy an adapter so that it will fit. Also, although the Phillips doesn't stand on the stairs, the hose and tubes on it are so long that you can get three quarters of the way up the stairs without needing to stand it on the stairs anyway. Really good vac for a reasonable price. I would definitely buy it again.

Excellent vacuum cleaner

It’s an excellent vacuum cleaner and I use it for cleaning a large house. In Germany and Austria this vacuum cleaner is sold with a slightly better power brush. I wish this brush was available on Amazon UK

Very disappointing
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I would not buy this product again because, in my view, it has some very undesirable design flaws. Easily the worst flaw is the protruding "mudguards" over the wheels. The drag of the cable (whether extended or not) coupled with a long flexible pipe mean that the vacuum is almost certain to catch against any object in its path and not glide around it. Yes the suction is very powerful, BUT if it is on the lowest setting and you use the carpet attachment on a low pile carpet it is very hard to push - there is a manual valve that will release the vacuum but this is cumbersome to use - I use the hard floor brush instead which therefore makes the vacuum less effective on carpet. The automatic cable feed rarely works successfully and one often ends up having to help it back in. On the other hand, the tension on the cable when pulling the cleaner is sometimes sufficient to pull the plug out of the socket just enough for the cleaner to cut out!

Super suction power

Heavy suction power. If you have weak hands better look for alternate option and this one get really stick to the mat. Emptying the bin is effortless. Good built quality and very less noise being produced while operating. House is super clean now. I liked the product
