Vax Platinum Power Max 1200W carpet cleaner
Product description
Vax Platinum Power Max is a carpet shampooer that combines deep cleaning and versatile spot tools to tackle everyday domestic messes. It aims to lift embedded dirt and neutralise odours while offering a practical drying cycle for quicker use of rooms.
Key points
This upright washer promises cleaning performance claimed as five times better than a high performance vacuum cleaner, with separate 3.5L clean and 2.9L dirty water tanks and included cleaning solutions. HeatBlast technology blends hot air with extraction to help carpets dry in as little as one hour according to the manufacturer. The machine weighs 9.6kg, runs at 1200W and comes in black, so it is straightforward to manoeuvre and store in typical UK homes. It’s worth noting that the Pre-Treatment Wand and solutions are intended to tackle stubborn stains, but heavily soiled or delicate fibres may still need specialist care.
