spare elements

One factor I’ve seen with many of those Chinese language firms is that it may be tough to get substitute elements at cheap costs. Fortunately Jimmy has a retailer within the EU with a wide variety of elements and GeekBuying appears to have loads of elements too.

Meeting

This has numerous element on the packaging and is a bit intimidating at first. Along with all of the totally different cleansing heads, you even have the charging stand, which is made up of 4 separate elements.

I had to check out the charging stand directions to know what was happening. The image makes it clear, you may have the bottom and the put up, then the center half, to which you’ll be able to connect equipment, after which the second put up with the built-in charging base. You possibly can then screw all of them into place.

The ground head has a tough ground curler put in by default. That is mainly a foam curler that’s designed to stop hair from getting tangled. Since I’ve a mixture of exhausting ground and carpet, I needed to change the top. This was a little bit of a trouble, there’s a little launch button that detaches a chunk of plastic, permitting you to take away the curler. I struggled to get the rolelr out although, had to make use of a knife to get it out.

cleansing modes

This comes with a plethora of equipment that mean you can do no matter activity you need. For the overwhelming majority of cleansing, I used it with the lengthy versatile wand and the ground head with the rotating carpet brush. I additionally discovered the 2-in-1 crevice software helpful for cleansing mud that was on the facet of rugs and boards.

The headboard of the mattress was additionally helpful for going over our sofas.

Air Watts vs Energy

Some manufacturers could also be obscure about vacuum efficiency or quote any quantity that makes them look higher. A great instance is Gtech, who do not present any info on energy or air watts as they imagine air watts aren’t actually consultant of how properly vacuum cleaners can carry out and could be fairly deceptive.

Very often the quantity listed would be the energy of the motor itself, however this doesn’t essentially equate to hoover efficiency.

Air watts are speculated to be extra correct. Air Watts is a European take a look at customary (IEC60312) for vacuum cleaners. An upright vacuum ought to have round 100 air watts, and a cylinder vacuum ought to have round 220 air watts.

This vacuum cleaner has a 600W motor and claims to realize 200 air watts. I’ve no manner of independently verifying this specification.

cleansing efficiency

This void got here at a very good time. I simply modified the roof and now I would like to scrub all of the particles and mud from the attic. This inevitably meant {that a} important quantity of mud and particles landed on my carpeted flooring.

After eradicating the particles, numerous mud was embedded within the carpets (fortunately, we’re changing them as quickly as we end the remainder of the work). This stage of dust is properly past what most battery-powered vacuums are able to cleansing.

I’ve 4 totally different vacuum cleaners to check and I’ve ordered all of the vacuum cleaners so as of efficiency, from greatest to worst.

1. Vorwerk Kobold VK200 upright vacuum cleaner
2. Jimmy H9 Professional Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
3. Halo Capsule Cordless Vacuum
4. Ecovacs Deebot N8 robotic vacuum cleaner
5. MooSoo K17U cordless broom vacuum cleaner

The extremely costly Vorwerk Kobold VK200 plug-in upright can suck up any stage of dust on its highest setting. It’s listed with a rated output of 700 watts and a most suction energy of 280 watts (which I assume is air watts). It’s claimed that upright vacuum cleaners like this one ought to have at the least 220 watts of air energy, making the Vorwerk 27% extra highly effective.

The Jimmy H9 Professional cordless vacuum simply takes an in depth second. Efficiency is nowhere close to the Vorwerk, which is to be anticipated, but it surely’s simply higher than the others. Utilizing the turbo perform and spending a bit of extra time on the carpet, he was in a position to take away the overwhelming majority of seen dust.

The Halo Capsule does a good job, simply inferior to the Jimmy H9 Professional. My overview acknowledged this has 120 air watts, however different take a look at knowledge has proven this may max out at 185 AW. Subjectively, I might say that is about proper, a bit in need of the 200 AW the Jimmy H9 Professional claims to realize.

As anticipated, the robotic vacuum cleaner didn’t carry out very properly. Deep cleansing is just not their sturdy level, they’re higher at common cleansing and checking issues out.

The MooSoo K17U has a motor energy of simply 250W in comparison with 600W on the Jimmy. The outcomes are due to this fact predictable. It can’t deal with deep-seated dust and is just helpful for preserving on high of sunshine dust.

Past that excessive take a look at, I used the Jimmy H9 Professional for normal cleansing and located it to be wonderful. The vary of equipment means it ought to be capable to deal with any take a look at. The product spec states that it weighs 7.1kg however I am positive it should be with all of the equipment, I discovered it fairly mild and it was straightforward to scrub my stairs.

Drums

The battery is detachable and could be charged in two methods, both utilizing the cradle that has the charging contact factors or with the devoted charger. You should purchase spare batteries for €60, and this could mean you can have a spare charged always.

Putting the vacuum again on its charging stand after every use by no means utterly drained the battery. I discovered the battery indicator very helpful, providing you with an apparent indication of how a lot time you may have left.

Utilizing it on turbo mode when making an attempt to scrub up the attic mess, it will drop from 100% to 80% in slightly below 10 minutes. I might say it is best to simply recover from an hour of use for normal cleansing and fairly probably the claimed most runtime of 80 minutes.

Value and different choices

The Jimmy H9 Professional is out there at GeekBuying. The RRP is £537.35, however on the time of writing they’ve a lightning deal to deliver it all the way down to below £270.

The official Jimmy EU web site has an RRP of €425.99, which works out to about £370. This appears to be an inexpensive worth in comparison with the large manufacturers.

The marketplace for cordless vacuum cleaners could be very aggressive. Well-known aggressive choices I discovered at John Lewis embrace:

  • 45 minute run time, 3 hour cost time
  • 72W energy (I am guessing it is speculated to be AirWatts)

Common

I have been impressed with the Jimmy H9 Professional, it does every thing I need from a cordless stick vac with none of the widespread negatives these vacs have like poor suction and horrible battery life.

The cleansing efficiency is the perfect I’ve utilized in a cordless stick vacuum.

The official PVP undercuts Dyson, and the PVP of Shark. Based mostly on the specs, it appears like efficiency ought to be just like the £430 Dyson V10 or the £299 Shark IZ300UKT (£430 RRP). Shopping for from GeekBuying it is best to be capable to get it for below £300, making it a beautiful possibility in comparison with the Shark IZ300UKT.
