Pros and cons

According to our vacuum expert

• With the included turbo floor attachment, you can remove pet hairs, dust, and dirt quickly and easily from your floor because the brush rotates.
• Thanks to the LED lighting on the multi-surface tool, you won't miss any dirt and your floors become truly clean.
• The auto function recognizes your floor type, so the suction power automatically adjusts and you always vacuum thoroughly.
• You won't receive a parquet brush, so it's less easy to vacuum wood floors.

Description

With the AEG AB81A2DG 8000 Animal, you can vacuum your carpet and rugs extra thoroughly and easily. That's because a turbo floor attachment is included. With this, you can remove dirt and pet hairs more easily and faster from your floor because the brush rotates. When you use the multi-surface tool with LED lighting, you can see dirt extra well. This way, you're sure that you vacuum thoroughly. The auto function of the vacuum recognizes the floor type you're cleaning. The suction power automatically adjusts, so you don't have to think about it. Rather choose yourself? Via the handle, you can adjust the suction power. The Hygiene 12 filter stops 99.999% of the smallest dust particles, so the exhaust air stays clean. Thanks to the 12m operating radius, you don't have to change sockets often.

Very powerful vacuum cleaner

• Suction power
• Qualitatively

When I saw the vacuum cleaner, I thought it was very beautiful. Using it is also nice! The high suction power was immediately noticeable upon first use. The buttons on the handle are very useful, but sometimes you can accidentally turn off the vacuum cleaner or set the setting higher or lower. The vacuum cleaner is manoeuvrable and that is nice. But sometimes it is too manoeuvrable, causing the vacuum cleaner to sort of 'fly away'. The vacuum cleaner adapts to the type of floor, for example if you need to vacuum the carpet, the suction power is automatically set to a lower setting. You can also adjust it manually.
We are very satisfied with the vacuum cleaner and definitely recommend it for people with or without pets.

Quiet vacuum cleaner with good performance

• Much quieter than previous vacuum cleaner
• Remove cat hair from the sofa/mat with little effort
• Flat cord, fits easily under doors
• Less manoeuvrable than previous vacuum cleaner

I mainly compare this vacuum cleaner with the Dyson DC48 Animalpro, given that it was the previous vacuum cleaner.

It is striking - as often stated in the reviews - that the vacuum cleaner is quiet. Sometimes you really wonder if it is even on. Great that it can also be vacuumed with little noise. The Dyson had no problems with cat hair on the old couch, but on the current couch it was a workout session. With a lot of effort, the sofa was somewhat free of cat hair. This is a piece of cake with this AEG vacuum cleaner.

This AEG vacuum cleaner is heavier and less manoeuvrable than the Dyson. The Dyson often fell over. I see both points more as "getting used to" rather than taking them very seriously. The long and flat cord is very nice, 1 socket per floor is sufficient and the doors easily go over the cord, without anything getting stuck, which happened with the Dyson. I also read somewhere that this vacuum cleaner would be inconvenient on stairs. I have a staircase with two curves and this vacuum cleaner fits perfectly in the vertical position, so I don't experience that awkwardness myself.

Used it twice more, but vacuuming the sofa in particular is now a lot more pleasant and I also really like the fact that there is no more dust swirling around. Those are my main points, which made me choose this vacuum cleaner.

Excellent vacuum cleaner

• Good suction
• Long cord
• Heavy duty vacuum cleaner

I have been using the vacuum cleaner for about 3 weeks now and am satisfied with it. The vacuum cleaner was heavier than expected but sucks very well. I did buy another vacuum cleaner head, which is especially suitable for hard floors. Personally, I think this is a much nicer vacuum cleaner than the large vacuum cleaner nozzle that came with it as standard. The vacuum cleaner is now much more manoeuvrable and can reach corners and under the sofa more easily. We have 2 cats and I must say that it sucks up the cat hair very well. The vacuum cleaner doesn't make much noise, my old vacuum cleaner made a lot more noise. What I also really like is the old vacuum cleaner nozzle light so that you can clearly see what you are sucking up and whether everything is gone. I also like that it is a vacuum cleaner with a bag, which is more hygienic and the vacuum cleaner is less likely to become clogged or very dirty. I am very happy with this vacuum cleaner
