Bosch Athlet Serie 6 BCH86SILGB ProSilence 25.2 V Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, 60 minutes runtime - White

Product Information

In upright mode with the main floor head it coped admirably well. On full power it cleaned the test carpet area, with its well-rubbed-in pet hair, to pristine clean in around 18 seconds. Slim and manoeuvrable, the Athlet has superb power and, combined with the innovative SmartSensor technology, achieves the same cleaning result as a corded vacuum cleaner.* The Bosch Athlet vacuum boasts a motorised AllFloor HighPower Brush that works at approximately 5000 revolutions per minute to ensure maximum cleaning results across all floor types. It's a bag-less model too which means there's no hidden follow up costs having to buy dustbags - simply empty the container and wash the filer on a regular basis to ensure optimum performance. The built-in Lithium-Ion battery provides up to 60 minutes of run time from a single charge, giving you plenty of time to thoroughly clean the whole house. As mentioned, you get a shoulder strap for carrying the cleaner around, with the end of the hose and the upholstery and crevice nozzles within easy reach. This portable nature means the hose is very short, but with the superlight weight and no mains cable to trip over, the Athlet is excellent at reaching places other cleaners struggle to reach.

First off let's look at the performance of the Athlet. The first thing you notice when you turn on the Athlet is the plethora of lights on the front of the main container. These act as battery and dust bin indicators. The Athlet is extremely powerful for a cordless. It has 3 power settings, the first doesn't use the powered brush bar and is intended for hard floors. All of the power settings are more powerful than we expected. Bosch make a big deal about the battery life. Simply tying the strap on was fine for our test, and the Bosch worked as described – assuming you’re comfortable with having a machine over your shoulder. The main hose tool was OK for stair cleaning, although, as ever, tools without a rotating brush are always going to have limited efficiency on carpeted stairs. Care must also be taken when putting the vacuum cleaner down in this mode, as there’s no obvious way to place it on the floor. It would be easy to put it down ‘end-first’, crushing the hose. Used on level 3 (labelled ‘Turbo’) on mixed-pile carpets, the Athlet ran consistently at full power without fading or reducing power for just over 12 minutes. At this time it stopped completely, indicating it needed a recharge. We had to empty the container mid-way and several rooms got vacuumed twice before the machine stopped working. This is a great result, as you can get a lot of cleaning done in 12 minutes. If you’re prepared to do a lighter clean on Level two power, you can nip round all but the largest of houses on a single charge. Shhhh. Blaring music. Traffic. Loud (albeit friendly) neighbours. If you are sensitive to noise – or have napping children at home – the ultra quiet Athlet ProSilence quietly gets the job done. Without compromising on performance. Improved battery technology gives this model an incredible runtime of 75 minutes**. With outstanding cleaning performance to rival mains vacuums and versatile accessories included, enjoy superior, easier cleaning on both hard floors and carpets.
