Opinions on the Bosch Series 6 Unlimited
I've been using it for a while and I'm very happy. I did two floors of the house without draining the battery, and I have not needed to activate the turbo at any time. It is light, makes little noise (important for me) and tilts well from 90º to 0º to clean under beds and sofas. It makes the task of cleaning much more bearable.
If you are looking for a vacuum cleaner for many years, this is yours. You can purchase additional batteries for a reasonable price and compatible with other Bosch products, this seems key to me. The suction is good and the weight is contained. It is the only interesting vacuum cleaner if what you are looking for is durability.
I had a cheap stick vacuum cleaner and the change has been worth it. This Bosch broom has good power and it shows, both when cleaning floors and upholstery.. The construction quality is also noticeable, it looks resistant. We decided on it because of the battery, so we can easily replace it when we need to. I am happy with the purchase.
It's a mid-range product, light and easy to handle, maybe the tank is a little small, but the battery is enough for an 80 m floor2. To put the charging base you have to drill, it's not what I preferred, but oh well.
I recommend it 100%. It has great suction power and is lightweight. Coming from a corded vacuum cleaner, you have to get used to having it charged, but it's worth it for the convenience of not having to plug and unplug it later. Excellent quality, does not disappoint.
