Don't Buy a VAX Vacuum Cleaner
Do VAX vacuum cleaners suck ? Yes, but not as you would wish! VAX are useless, so don't buy a VAX vacuuum cleaner. Are VAX any good - no, they are rubbish. I just bought one and when I tried to use it it was totally useless. It sucks, but unfortunately not dust, it just sucks.
I would have done better to have taken my carpet out into the garden and beaten it with a stick. I took the useless VAX hoover back to Argos where I had the misfortune to buy it and they said tough ! I was told they don't do refunds on useless products, they just sell them. So they are quite willing to take your money selling rubbish, but they refuse to state in their catalogue that VAX vacuum cleaners are rubbish and to be avoided at all costs. If you want a refund you have to make sure you don't use it first, but of course you don't know the VAX rubbish vacuum cleaner you've just bought is useless until you actually try to use it ! By which time it is too late.
So now I'm stuck with a useless VAX vacuum cleaner / hoover - so I still need a vacuum cleaner so I've got to try and buy smething that is not rubbish like VAX and of course I won't be using Argos any more. But I shall of course be warning as many people as possible via my numerous blogs and websites ! Buy anything except VAX you certainly can't do any worse.

What model Vax was it?
The old BRITISH MADE 3-in-1 were/are great, but the Chinese made Rapide uprights are a pile of pooh.
The machine my mother bought for £50 broke after only 3 uses.
This has happened to many people after using their machine only once or twice.
What is the best value - a Brit made one for £150 that lasts years, or a Chinky pile of crap for £50 that lasts two uses?
Buying cheap does not pay!
Hi
Can't remember the number - it was a £50 job - we thought it would be good enough for a couple of years but it was useless and a total waste of time effort and money. We took it back to our local Argos but they refused to take it back because we had used it - so we cleaned it up properly and took it back to another Argos and got our money back :-). Argos it seems won't take stuff back if you have used it, so don't ever admit you've used anything. We bought a Miele which is great and highly recommended (by my wife).
We used to have a VAX (like your mum) and had similar experiences the old ones were OK the new ones are rubbish. We are now Miele converts !
