Thomas TWIN Panther

Advantages: lightweight, easy to clean parts

Comment: Very good vacuum cleaner, I am completely satisfied with the purchase. He washes the floors perfectly, plus I can say that you don't need to clean up the garbage before washing. Its weight is not large, so it is convenient to carry it with you. The vacuum cleaner itself washes quickly, the parts dry out in half a day, I don’t wipe them in addition. In general, the purchase is good, I am completely satisfied.

Advantages: Powerful - lifts the carpet behind it, a little bulky, but not heavy, quite easy to assemble, disassemble and use.

Disadvantages: 1 dust bag included, not reusable

Comment: The first experience of using a washing vacuum cleaner. The main task was to cope with animal hair on carpets, which, after cleaning with the previous vacuum cleaner, had to be intensively collected with a mop, from which the mop brushes quickly failed them, and this also required a lot of effort. Thomas sucked in the wool during dry cleaning, and on wet cleaning he also collected everything that was simply not visible to the eye and was between the pile of the carpet. I washed the floors with a bang too. The only thing is that each tank of clean water requires about 20 ml of washing liquid. I have enough tank to wash 1 small room. Includes a 250 ml bottle of liquid, you need to purchase it. It turned out to be quite simple in assembly, disassembly, cleaning after reading the instructions.

The most important thing that I did not notice in the reviews is dry cleaning through a bag, NO AQUAFILTER! The bag included is disposable. Spare ones on the Internet from 500 for 2 pieces. Although I found a reusable unofficial one. So I sit and think to return and take the aquafilter or leave it ... On the one hand, it will be like a regular vacuum cleaner with a bag, but for that kind of money you can find it better / less / easier / smarter. On the other hand, he knows how to wash and the price is not space. It is a pity that there are few comments.

Advantages: Lightweight, maneuverable, not loud, easy to clean, plastic quality.

Disadvantages: the water temperature for washing is no more than 30 degrees, the nozzle with a brush and an elastic band flies off with intense friction.

Comment: This is the second washing vacuum cleaner, the first was Zelmer, so there is something to compare with. I didn't think that washing vacuum cleaners could be convenient :) The vacuum cleaner is light for its kind, maneuverable (Zelmer got stuck and was clumsy), convenient (the water container is located at the back of the case, you do not need to open and climb inside to add water), not noisy , the pleasant sound of work (like an air conditioner) Zelmer resembled a rocket launch into space - all the neighbors in the area knew that I was washing the floors. Spraying water is fanned out, not a jet. The quality of the plastic is good, you can feel right away that it is reliable. It is quite simple to use, the buttons are rubberized, soft. Can stand both horizontally and vertically - also a plus. The lack of adjustment of the suction power does not affect it - everything sucks well, the floors dry quickly. For those who complain that the floors are wet, learn how to hold the floor brush correctly and you will be happy. In general, I am very pleased that I became the owner of the Pantherka, I hope it will not fail in the future, and it is cheaper than the clumsy Zelmer.

Advantages: really washes

Disadvantages: no

Comment: awesome) washes, collects small debris - before washing the floors I do not burn! They wrote that heavy is not true! How do you drag the bucket behind you, I wonder)) yes, after that you need to wash it, but you also need a bucket and a mop) I don’t dry the parts later, I wipe it dry and that's it), taking into account its washing, it takes less time to clean) it takes a little more standard vacuum cleaner! I'm very happy!

Advantages: Cleans carpets and tiles well, even cleans inter-tile joints. Roomy dust collector.

Disadvantages: Dimensional (although this is a sin of all washing vacuum cleaners), after cleaning it requires washing and drying.

Comment: A powerful vacuum cleaner, it will perfectly cope even with post-repair cleaning in the apartment. Its large weight and the need for regular washing are a little upsetting, but this, in principle, is tolerable. I have not yet decided on my attitude towards the bag: it seems to be cheaper because of this, but on the other hand, there would be no price at all with an aquafilter. For me personally, an indicator of quality is that this vacuum cleaner was able to clean the "grandmother's" carpet (you know, everyone probably had such houses, but now they lie / hang in their dachas?) To such a state that it looks quite fresh, as if it would be in the nineties again and it was just hung on the wall: D I can recommend it to owners of large dogs - in the fall you will understand what I mean;)

Advantages: good power, no noise, many attachments

Disadvantages: no

Comment: We bought this vacuum cleaner a year ago, an excellent household helper. We have a child and 2 cats at home, so the wet cleaning function is a must for us. The vacuum cleaner itself is very powerful, not very noisy. A great plus that the package contains a large set of nozzles, so I was pleased with the large 6-liter dust collector. An excellent vacuum cleaner for the price.

Advantages: I usually don't write reviews, but I couldn't resist here! Anyone who doubts: take it without hesitation. The power is excellent, it washes well. I tried the tiles in the bathroom (up to the ceiling), the sofa, the floors. I was also pleased with the opportunity to purchase various attachments, which from Thomas are suitable for all models of vacuum cleaners.As a result, my Panterka will be able to wash the laminate. And it is not at all necessary to buy an expensive unit for these purposes. The brush for wet cleaning the laminate costs 3500. So far, only one delight from this device! The cover is REMOVABLE !!! Read the instructions carefully. Raise to a vertical position and push forward. I thought a little and I did it!

Disadvantages: The only drawback is not a sealed container for dirty water. Grains of sand and hair fall on the lid and stick as they are wet.

Comment:

Advantages: Cleaning quality. There is much less dust and dirt.

Disadvantages: The quality of the case itself is not the best. My lid did not fit snugly against the bucket with a seal, which is why part of the air with dirt flew past the grate with water through the extension cord and got between the bucket and the body of the vacuum cleaner. If you do not follow this, dirt with water can theoretically get inside, into the motor. I had to modify the German vacuum cleaner with Russian ingenuity - to glue flat pieces of foam insulation about 8 mm thick on the bottom. with its own adhesive layer to raise the bucket and ensure a snug fit of the seal. The main thing is not to overdo it, so as not to break the lid, to control the load on it when closing. Cleaning the cover after cleaning is not thought out. It is inconvenient to wipe it with a rag, it turns out hard and of poor quality. I solve this problem by removing the cover, slightly unscrewing the fastening screws on the hinge after each cleaning. Then I remove the lid (without removing the loop) and wash it under running water.

Comment: I like the vacuum cleaner. Powerful, washes very well. You can easily wash the rug in the corridor with street dirt. Good idea, but not the best implementation. We have to finalize the design for the Germans.

Advantages: Suction power Maneuverability

Disadvantages: Bulky enough and heavy Noisy

Comment: It does its job for its cost. There will be no effect as after cleaning the cleaning service, but it is quite suitable for maintaining cleanliness. The water tank is enough for two rooms 15-17m, if you don't "maniac" too much. It collects water and small debris from linoleum well, but again, if there are any "twisted" spots and dirt, then wash them only by hand. All parts fit snugly. Some water can get under the bucket and under the container with clean water. The volume of the bucket holds 2 volumes of the tank for clean water. You can carefully move it by the hose and not be afraid to damage the vacuum cleaner. After wet cleaning, the seals from the cover can be easily removed and rinsed. I wanted to write about its shortcomings that it needs to be disassembled in order to wash, rearrange the attachments, the bag and the bucket when changing wet and dry cleaning, but did not, because, it seems to me, this is the problem of all washing vacuum cleaners, and not so and all this is difficult to do. The noise of 80-90 percent drowns out the crying of a baby in another room. Small rugs are better than pressing well when cleaning, because the vacuum cleaner pulls well enough. Photo of a vacuum cleaner after cleaning and a carpet that has not been washed for a very long time. Half of Pure Water went to that small area.
