Ease of order and everything arrived in good condition as scheduled. Carpets had 6 years of grime to contend with but came up looking almost as good as new with a single wash. Our house looks lighter... See more

Easy to order online and quick delivery. Can see a few enhancements/modifications from previous models mainly to do with the cord clip. Not sure yet how sturdy the handle will be but, having bought di... See more

Vax pet carpet cleaner

Vax pet carpet cleaner. Delivery was good, product absolute rubbish. Ruined my carpet. Had to pay for a new carpet in the end. Customer service wanted me to fill in this form for them to investigate, I give up in the end and cut my losses

After much confusion trying to register…

After much confusion trying to register the warranty i contacted customer services an agent called Stephanie came to my rescue as i had said the model and serial numbers on the head unit were different to the ones on the box and vax website didn't recognise the product it was at this point I was pointed in the direction of the numbers required. As a note to vax it might be helpful to put in the booklet when registering use the numbers located on the label behind the dust collection cylinder not the head unit.

Broke first time I used it; 40 minute wait to get through to customer services; complicated return process - AVOID

Bought a Vax platinum platinum smart design pet carpet cleaner and the front fell off the first time I used it, rendering it unusable. It took 40 minutes to get through to Customer Services who then only offered to send a new part, not a new machine, and when I asked for a refund they make you follow a ridiculously convoluted process of sending you a letter with a label and you then have to arrange your own return. Utterly useless. Avoid.

Hello Danielle,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

I am sorry to hear of a delay when contacting us.

This does not sound like our usual refund process, I have sent you a request for further information for me to look into this for you.

Kind Regards,
Ben,

The customer service I received from…

Excellent customer service. My warranty had expired by 11 days but Vax still honoured a part I needed. Upon delivery there was a picking error, the replacement part was delivered the next day as well as a free bottle of detergent for the error. I highly recommend this company not just for the products but also their outstanding customer service.

Found it very easy to use

Found it very easy to use. Lighter than previous Vax cordless. Like the bright light on brush head, lights up floor very well. Disappointed that that that light only works with brush running so not able to light hard floor under sofa and cabinets.

Vax is a very good company

Vax is a very good company and very trustworthy. I was pleased with the carpet cleaner and it brings my carpets looking like new.
I have tried other cleaners and they were not able to clean the carpets properly. The cleaner was delivered very quickly and I used it straight away.
