Opinions on the Rowenta X-Force Flex 11.60 Aqua
I've moved house and I wanted a stick vacuum cleaner so I wouldn't have to take out the sled vacuum every time I had to clean. After a lot of looking, looking for the best quality-price-performance ratio, I have decided on this model and I do not regret my purchase. The product is robust and quality, and very practical, the main brush perfectly absorbs both human hair and cat hair, the LED lights illuminate dark corners, and the folding function is very good for cleaning under furniture. The power is very good and it has 3 modes, it has a price in line with its quality and features, much more profitable than other models from some brand, which exceed 800 euros.
Before buying this Rowenta I had a Dyson that I used daily and I was a little skeptical if it would reach the level, but It has been a pleasant surprise, it is an excellent product for my needs.
I have had several wireless vacuum cleaners from unknown brands before, trying to save, but it is a mistake, they quickly lose performance, the parts break... so in the end we decided to spend a little more and get this Rowenta X-Force Flex 11.60 Aqua. We decided on this model because of the scrubbing brush and what can I say, it's fantastic. The suction power is formidable, it captures hair without problems and comes with a lot of accessories. I recommend it without a doubt.
