Pretty good reviews on the Kogan and Dick Smith websites. Cheaper then the $89 (plus $15 shipping) vacuum from Kmart
Cyclone filtration
Compact, ergonomic design
180deg swivel steering
3L dust capacity
700W motor
3m hose and 7m cable length
Have you tried that? :)
Yes but I have hard floors mostly so I haven't used the"full" potential
Do you have a link to the Kmart one?
Gee. 700w motor on this Kogan cleaner vs 1200W on the Kmart one. I think that the Kmart one is better.
If not for 500W less power on the motor, the Kogan one looks nearly identical to it. Just missing the adjustment for the floor height and the smaller rotating head that the Kmart one has attached to the handle.
For $10 more I would go for the Kmart one. I've got it myself and it's a beast.
$79 vs $104.64 shipped. $25 difference.
Kogan model also has 3L bin vs Kmart 1.3L bin.
Why ship? Just walk in the store
Most people would have a Kmart close enough to them that it wouldn't cost more than $5 for the trip round and back, and they also get to spend time in there which I would bet is a favored past time of OZBers.
1.3l is actually a decent capacity. Considering the Dyson stick cleaners have a capacity of 400ml, it's more than 4x the capacity of those Dysons. 1.3l is plenty for me. I get around 4 whole apartment cleans, once every 10ish days, and only have to empty it once a month. 3L is double that, but with a motor twice as weak, it will take 4x as long to fill.
Kmart one also comes with an extra rotating brush head.
I think the extra few dollars and smaller dust capacity of the Kmart one are worth it over less powerful Kogan one. Then there's also the reputation, not that the Kogan one is bad - it just doesn't have any. The Kmart one has a great one, although it may have all started with a paid for promotional article on a news website. It was enough to peak my interest and I've been happy with mine over the last 9ish months.
I miss Dick. DSE was pretty sweet.
Yeah it was great when it was the proper DSE. I liked Dick.
Why not just grab that Kmart one everyone raves about. Only$10 more
