Just picked up this handy 2 in 1 cordless Vac, instore Sainsbury's Tamworth. Varying prices online raging from £40-£80. 2yr Warranty, 16v lithium battery. The reviews I've read vary from loving it to hating it but for £25 it's ideal for quick pick ups.

Russell hobbs dont deserve customers. They have put profit over customer safety in the past.
Sorry, but i wouldnt want one for free.

similar experience with one of their irons. in my experience their quality is inferior to other brands but are usually keenly priced - you get what you pay for! for £25 you've nothing to lose and no risk of electric shock in a cordless vacuum :-).

Just look up russell hobbs and watchdog. They are cheap for a reason in my opinion. They left customers using dangerous products and kept selling them for over a year after knowing that they were severely burning customers.
A while ago now, but same company at the end of the day.

Similar to Hotpoint/indesit with tumble dryers, or Beko few years back too! Most larger names like this have products recalled/faulty. As I said it's £25 it's cordless I'm not expecting it to be the best vac ever(_;)

Absolutely. Im not pulling your post down either, but just hold a massive grudge against Russell hobbs.
Its a shame as the products tend to look smart and great value. Maybe great value is acheived by using inferior parts! I was sold a faulty iron and didnt appreciate it not being recalled for over a year after Russell Hobbs knowing about the dangerous fault, infact they knew about people receiving electrical burns before selling one to me and many others, so I feel entitled to hold a grudge. I understand that it doesn't put everyone off though.
