Best Vax cleaning products to buy 2024

Score: 93/100

Simple to use, sturdy, and a stellar cleaner, this is one of the very best models our team has tried. It automatically releases detergent as you move it, and drys your carpets on the go too.

No stain proved beyond its capabilities, and its array of tools helped make light work of trickier jobs like removing set-in mud. It’s ideal for refreshing carpets throughout your whole home.

Score: 95/100

Three of the Vax spot washers we’ve tested share the top score, so we’ve included all of them here, listing the pros and cons of each to help you decide which is right for you. This one is designed to make cleaning up soils quick and easy – and it showed on test, banishing dried-on stains with ease.

This is particularly handy if you don’t have time to tackle a spill as it happens (and in fact, testers found it marginally better at cleaning stains after they’d been left than addressing them straight away). It’s great for cars too. A dream cleaning machine.

Score: 95/100

If portability is your priority, then this cordless spot washer is the one for you – it’s lightweight with clear controls and its battery lasted for 25 minutes in our tests, which should be plenty for most stain-removal jobs.

As with the others on this list, it lifted stains well – the only one it struggled with was red wine – it was unable to quite banish all traces. But that’s hardly a surprise – wine is notorious for staining for a reason! Our surfaces were largely dry after use too, meaning whipping it out in a cleaning emergency won’t be too disruptive to your day.

Score: 95/100

This is the last of our spot washer top picks, and it’s the most affordable of the three, meaning you can still enjoy Vax’s cleaning prowess but for a lower price. Testers found little scrubbing was needed to achieve a good finish and the cleaner left surfaces close to dry afterwards.

It struggled with wine and mud on carpet, and coffee on upholstery, but testers were able to shift most eventually – so only keen eyes would notice. And they were impressed with the overall appearance of our carpet, which was refreshed and water mark-free.

Score: 97/100

Dropping just three marks across all our testing, this hard floor cleaner should keep your home sparkling. It washes and dries as it goes, and lifted stains with ease. Mud required a smidge more effort – but when our experts adjusted the brush bar, the results were impeccable.

It’s also simple to use and has a faff-free water tank. The best bit? A self-cleaning programme means you don’t need to worry about any additional clean-up.

Score: 94/100

This is the best Vax stick vacuum our experts have tried. It aced our dirt collection tests, and its pet brush tool lifted hair reliably too – which is good, as this vacuum is designed specifically for homes with furballs.

The dust canister was easy to empty, it has a powerful boost mode, and it impressed when used as a handheld to clean a car. Just note that it can’t stand up on its own, so you’ll need a good spot to store it.

Score: 76/100

Giving you maximum dust-gathering capacity with the flexibility of a stick vacuum, this Vax is the best of all vacuuming worlds. It’s a cordless upright vacuum, meaning it’s more portable and better suited to big homes.

It rivalled traditional uprights too, lifting all dust from hard floors and 80% from short pile carpet. Pet hair was easy breezy for it too. It wasn’t the best on long pile though, but it’s easy to use.
