Vax History
Vax UK Ltd was founded in December 1977 by Alan Brazier, who had prior experience in the field of industrial carpet cleaning. Brazier developed a prototype of a machine suitable for a household but capable of washing carpets and handling accident spillages or flooding. In 1979, Vax launched an "orange tub" multi-functional floor-care machine to fulfil this purpose and initially engaged with consumers by door-to-door sales of the device. This product was a world first.
Vax products were first offered for sale by high-street retailers in 1982, and the 111 Orange Tub model went on to become the best-selling vacuum cleaning product in the United Kingdom in 1987.

For cleaning sealed hard floors, tiles, vinyl or Lino we recommend the The Vax Hard Floor Pro. I am not a great fan of mopping and never have been. It's wet, seems to take forever to dry out unless leaving my doors or windows open (which I am not a fan of in winter) and has the problem of emptying dirty water out in a sink. This steam cleaner although as expected does leave a damp floor after cleaning, this quickly dries unlike mop cleaning. This cleaner is easy to assemble, comes in 3 parks that need clicking together with no tools needed. This Steam mop is very lightweight even once filled with water, and takes literally seconds to heat up (may be slightly longer than the 5 seconds it suggest). There is a guide on the side of your water compartment showing you exactly how much detergent to use so you can't go wrong. With only one dial for settings on the front, it keeps it all nice and simple. These settings enable you to set how much detergent you feel you need, we find this very useful for when floors are in need of a deep clean. Be aware if you use your steam mop regularly on the deep clean settings you may find your floor can become sticky. The Vax steam mop detergent is also environmentally friendly. The vax has two liquid compartments, one for your detergent mix and the other for plain water. Combined they have a cleaning time of around 20 minutes.

With interchangeable pads that need no fitting and can simply be thrown in the washing machine after use, meaning no mop that needs to be left to dry out somewhere. We find this tool highly effective and heating water to near on boiling point assures you kill 99% of all bacteria. Takes up barely any room at all when stored and as you can pull the pads straight off after cleaning you are free to put the steam cleaner back in the cupboard straight after, unlike the retro mop and bucket. These steam mops also come with a carpet attachment. Having attempted to use these on occasions I have found them to be no good for the job. I feel when cleaning carpets I need the dirt pulling out the carpets rather than just steaming them to make them smell fresh.

Although these cleaners are a little heavy when filled with water they are amazing at what they do. We have tried various cleaners on the market and this one performs far better than most others. It is simple to use and can be used on 99% of carpets and also has an amazing attachment for helping clean sofa and stairs with astounding results. Both to fill up and empty is very simple and with a 5L tank you can do a huge area without the need to keep filling. I would definitely recommend this product if you have a home with a large through flow of dogs or people.
Powerful water jets clean deep into the carpets, whilst the rotating brush bar agitates the carpet fibres to lift and remove embedded dirt and stubborn stains. Dual V twin air path technology provides powerful suction and directs heated air onto the carpet, so it dries more quickly. We tend to use warm water in our Vax to help decrease the drying time. Saying that, we have always found after carpet cleaning we are able to walk on the carpets straight after. But would recommend not wearing sock on the carpets for at least an hour. |

The wash tool is ideal for cleaning stairs and upholstery, and getting into those hard to reach areas for effective cleaning around your whole home.
Please note putting this simple solution extreme in some carpet cleaners can invalidates your warranty. If in doubt spray on the carpet before cleaning with the carpet cleaner.
