AEG VX83-2DB VX8.3

Upon opening the box, it is immediately noticeable that the vacuum cleaner is well and neatly packaged. A dust bag is already included as standard, and an extra bag is supplied. What strikes me most after that is the build quality. Clearly, no expense was spared on the materials. The stainless steel tube, for example, feels incredibly solid and premium. I previously had a vacuum cleaner with a plastic tube, and the difference is truly noticeable. The rest of the vacuum cleaner also feels sturdy and well put together.

Assembly is simple. It is basically a matter of plugging a few parts together, and you can get started right away. However, I do find it a pity that only one small extra attachment is included. This is especially handy for corners and hard-to-reach places. I would have appreciated a somewhat larger attachment, for example for stair treads. During use, it is immediately noticeable how quiet the vacuum cleaner is. You might expect there to be less suction power because of this, but nothing could be further from the truth. The suction power is truly amazing, and I am quite impressed by it.

What I perhaps like best of all is how smoothly everything moves. Both the vacuum itself and the suction head roll incredibly easily across the floor. Moreover, the head is very maneuverable: you can easily rotate the wand and the head, allowing you to effortlessly go around furniture and reach corners with ease. It really works with you, and you constantly feel like you are in complete control. You also pull the vacuum itself behind you without much effort. As a result, after a while you are actually no longer consciously focused on the vacuum; you can concentrate fully on cleaning. Especially on my PVC and microcement floor, the head moves almost as if it is flying across the floor. The only minor drawback is that the head rolls so smoothly that if you lean it against a wall for a moment, it sometimes rolls down and falls to the ground. Also positive: I have bumped the head against baseboards a few times, but no black streaks are left behind. Unfortunately, I have experienced that with other vacuums. Additionally, the cable is long enough to vacuum a considerable part of the home without having to constantly switch power outlets. The cable itself and the plug also feel solid. All in all, I am extremely satisfied with this vacuum cleaner and it is highly recommended. The combination of the low noise level, the very good suction power, the excellent build quality, and especially the enormous ease of use makes this a really great vacuum cleaner for me. It feels solid and premium, and vacuuming is simply remarkably fast and easy with it.

I was looking for a new vacuum cleaner to vacuum up my dog's hair and ended up with this one. I think the vacuum has good suction power, which you can adjust using the rotary knob. The nozzle also rolls smoothly over my laminate and tile floors. I don't have carpet, so I can't say if it is suitable for that as well. I find the handle for lifting it easily feels a bit fragile, but I hope it will last a long time. Additionally, I find the vacuum itself quite heavy, but my previous vacuum was much heavier, so I think this is about an average weight. I also don't think the noise level is among the quietest vacuums, especially the sound at the nozzle or the attachment; the motor itself is reasonably quiet. All in all, a fine vacuum cleaner that does what it is supposed to do.

This AEG works great! I have a tiled floor with a few rugs at home, and the cleaning result is top-notch on both surfaces! That is, after all, the most important thing about a vacuum cleaner.

It is handy that an automatic nozzle is included for switching between surfaces, but it does take a little getting used to compared to what I was accustomed to.

The build quality of this AEG is what you would expect from this brand: sturdy. As a result, I expect to be able to enjoy this vacuum cleaner for a long time. However, this does mean that the vacuum cleaner itself is a bit heavier.

I am also pleasantly surprised by the noise level.
