I wish I’d have read these reviews before wasting £179.99 on a Vax Powerblade useless nothing like the advert Not just that but I had a battery replaced after only 8 months and now the second one has packed up after another 8 months When I finally spoke to someone in Customer service they said there was nothing they could do as the machine was out of warranty I argued my case that it was the second battery they supplied less than a year old not the machine surely a battery should last than a few months she even agreed the battery was defective but they couldn’t replace it but I could buy one for £79.99 !! I said what if I’ve been supplied with a faulty battery or charger surely they should be replaced at less than a year old warranty or not at the end of the day it’s obviously a fault with the product She told me to take it to consumer rights if I wasn’t happy so no not a lot of help at all £179.99 out of pocket and even when it did work it wasn’t that great Very disappointed would not recommend this product
