I had been looking for a cordless vacuum that was affordable for some time, so this was bought mainly for the vacuum as I already have a cordless blower. I have used it quite a lot now and it does exactly what I need. It runs on full power for 10 minutes and takes 1 hour to charge. I use it on a bank under a hedge where dead leaves drop and are awkward to gather, also the corners of paths around the house and on a gravel drive. It munches everything very small and usually the bag is full after ten minutes. As a 75 year old female find this quite long enough to do what I want. I am very pleased with my new machine.
Charged batteries for over 24 hours but would not fully charge. Tried using blower and could only use for 10 minutes before batteries ran out. A waste of money.
