Not durable. Power switch failure is common. The battery terminals on the handheld melted g tech won't supply parts offered a new cleaner body only. So much for being able to repair! Despite Union Jack flag on box the cleaner is made in China. I binned it and bought a different make. Importing plastic unrepairable chep stuff like this from China is harming the environment. The local tip has a lot of Gtech stuff in the skips! Avoid!
