You can forget conventional cleaning – the new Dyson V6 range has been engineered with convenience in mind, no matter what kind of floors or surfaces you need to clean.

The Dyson V6 range is the most powerful yet lightweight cordless vacuum cleaner that’s been designed for up to 20 minutes of cleaning. This range is powered by the Dyson V6 digital motor that spins up to 100,000 times a minute. It features 15 radial cyclones across 2 tiers for increased airflow to capture fine dust.

Unlike other handhelds the V6 range can be used up top, in-between and down below. Dyson engineers used Archimedes’ simple, but brilliant lever principle to perfect the balance in hand. So it’s just as easy to clean cobwebs from ceiling corners, as it is to clean crumbs from the floor.

The slim aluminum wand also fits into tight spaces – like between kitchen cupboards and fridges. We know because we tried.  This wand can also be completely detached from the machine, turning it into a very portable handheld for compact spaces like the car.

Each model within the range has been designed to help you get the best cleaning result for your particular needs. The Silver V6 has a motorised cleaner head that removes dirt from carpets and fine dust from hard floors. The V6 animal comes with an additional mini motorized tool with stiff nylon bristles that remove pet hair ground in dirt from furniture, car seats and other tight spaces.

The V6 motorhead has a direct drive motorised cleaner head that has been invented specifically for carpet cleaning and is 75 percent more powerful that the standard brush bar for heavier cleaning jobs.

The V6 fluffy has a soft roller cleaner that’s been invented for hard floors. This cleaner head removes large debris and fine dust at the same time. The full coverage roller is made of soft woven nylon with rows of anti-static carbon fiber filaments for a brilliantly clean hard floor.

And the V6 Absolute comes with the direct drive motorhead, the fluffy soft roller cleaner and the mini motorised tool, for a complete vacuuming solution for the entire house.

As you can see, the new Dyson V6 range means you can forget about pulling out your full sized vacuum cleaner for every minor cleaning task.  Whether it’s carpet, hard floors, the car or furniture, there’s a Dyson V6 model perfect for you!

If you’re part of a big family in your home, then chances are, you’ll have pretty big laundry loads. Whether it’s sports, business wear or night garments, there’s probably a big basket of clothes just waiting to be washed. LG’s front load washing machine might just be the answer to helping you get through your large, family-sized washing volumes.

This LG washing machine can handle a massive 10 kilos worth of dirty clothes and linen. This mean that wash frequency and the amount of time spent washing is reduced, freeing your day up to get on with the other things you need to do.

If you prefer to do your laundry at night time, then you will definitely appreciate LG’s Direct Drive. Instead of using belts and pulleys like on a standard washing machine, the Direct Drive actually fastens the drum directly to the motor. This system results in less noise, less vibration and increased durability – now that’s something you’d want in a domestic workhorse like a washing machine.

The Direct Drive provides a really wide range of washing movements, resulting in a more natural, almost handwash clean. There’s actually 6 different wash movements, which the washer will select based on the wash program you’ve chosen.

The unique six motion control technology rotates the drum at various speeds and directions for a great clean. The high speed processor controls the direct drive motor, allowing you to wash with 6 types of motion. Here are a couple of examples of how the different motions work on different types of fabric. The stepping function uses a powerful tone of walling water to remove dirt and stains on more heavy duty items such as jeans. Similar to washing by hand, the gentle motion of the swing function allows you to clean delicate clothing without the worry of them being damaged.

If an issue with the Smart Washer does occur, LG’s Smart Diagnosis feature will relay a 6 second sound to a call centre that you’ve contacted, who can then quickly identify what the problem might be. And the LG App available on Apple and Android devices will also provide feedback on the status of your washer or instant feedback.

That’s the LG 10 kilo direct drive washing machine. Less loads, more time for you.

It was only just 21 years ago that Dyson changed the way we Australians vacuum their homes.

Before Dyson, conventional vacuum cleaners remained unchanged for over a century – they would work on carpets but neglected other areas of your home. They just didn’t do what they were needed to do, and left a lot of dust and dirt behind around the home.

In 1993, James Dyson launched his first bagless machine with no loss of suction and no bag – the DC01. It took him 5 years of perseverance and over 5,000 prototypes  to create this best-seller. From there, Dyson set out to launch more upright vacuums, designing and engineering the next machine to perform better than the previous ones.

Still setting the benchmark for vacuum cleaner suction performance today, those smart engineers at Dyson have built a vacuum cleaner for your entire home. The latest addition to the range is the Dyson DC65 Animal upright vacuum. Let’s take a look at this machine in more detail.

We know that 91 percent of Australian Homes have a mixture of floor types, and to get good dust pick up across all floor types – there are a couple important things you need to know. There is the brush bar that will loosen and agitate the dirt and there is the suction at the cleaner head that pulls the dust away. This is precisely what the Dyson self-adjusting cleaner head is designed to do.

You see, as you move from floor type to floor type, the floating sole plate automatically adjusts to maintain a good seal and high suction. The DC65 also has a new design purple brush bar, driving deeper into the carpet pile with 25 percent more brush bar power than its predecessor. With a Dyson DC65, you really get the best of both worlds on carpets and hard floors  without wasting suction energy … and you don’t even have to worry about fiddly dials. Simple!

DC65 has 12 cyclones that make up Dyson’s most advanced Radial Cyclone™ technology – spinning the air very very quickly, creating incredible forces that capture the tiniest of particles … microscopic allergens and dirt that you can’t see – as small as 0.5 microns.

DC65 is perfect for cleaning around the rest of your home. Whilst fixed wheel vacuums are fine for going in straight lines, a house full of obstacles means the ball technology in Dyson machines allows you to navigate easily around all the obstacles effectively and efficiently.

And did I mention that DC65 is great for cleaning up high and hard-to-reach places … all the way up to the top of the stairs with its instant release wand. Just simply use the right tool for the right job – such as the mini tangle-free turbine tool – it picks up hair and dirt without tangling. This is just one of the extra tools that help you clean dirt from awkward places – from up high and down below to the edge of your skirting boards.

Dyson DC65 upright is engineered specifically for real Australian homes and tested to be incredibly strong and durable. Come on in to any Bing Lee store to try one out!

We’ve just taken delivery of a brand new vacuum cleaner, and let’s just say up front that it doesn’t fit the standard idea of a cleaning machine… at all. We think that it really does look like something Michael Bay would dream up for one of his robot fighting blockbuster movies.

The vacuum in question is the new Powerbot from Samsung – even the name delivers a action flick sensibility. This is a robot vacuum that is actually a vacuum, in that it uses suction power to clean in addition to its brushes.

You can send it out to battle dusty and dirty areas using the supplied remote, or let it work its own way around your house. It actually creates a map of the house and cleans as efficiently as possible.

And try this for smart – when it gets low on battery power, the Powerbot returns to its charging station, and then gets back out into the field to complete its job, starting where it left off!

If you think this sounds more like some kind of sentient cleaning robot than a standard robot vacuum, the folks at Samsung feel the same way, and they’ve created a video to illustrate what they obviously had in mind when they designed and produced this beast of a robo-vac.

Enjoy, and have a great weekend!

Bag-less cyclonic vacuum cleaners have long held the mantle as having the latest technology with power, hassle-free convenience, without the need to buy dust-bags, not to mention you can actually see the dust you’re capturing.

Electrolux looked for feedback and set out to address three main issues: performance – with regards to suction and power; ease of use – primarily around maneuverability, noise levels, and storage, and finally – the management of dust. Based on that research, they created the Electrolux ultracaptic.

One of the issues with bag-less vacuum cleaners is how to clear the dust and dirt. The ultracaptic is designed with a unique and innovative easy release handle, part of the ‘Compact and Go’ solution. For fast and convenient emptying, you just push the easy release handle and press a button – no extra hassle required. This means you’ll avoid messy contact with the dust and dirt, and it keeps the canister internally visible so you can easily see the volume of dirt you’ve picked up.

To deliver performance and ease of use, the Ultracaptic features powerful cleaning, including Multicyclonic Technology, which helps deliver high dust separation, with up to 99.95% dust pick up on hard floors. Ten mini-cyclones separate ultra-fine dust particles and capture them in the Fine-dust Filter. This reduces the risks of filters being clogged and increases the performance of the cleaner.

The washable HEPA 13 Allergy filter provides clean Exhaust Air by trapping more than 99.99% of fine dust. The ultracaptic has also been designed for ultimate manoeuvrability with an ergonomic grip, and large, soft wheels that protect hard floors. It also has 5 speed settings so you always have the right suction for the surface you’re cleaning.

With many of these features, Electrolux received the coveted 5 star excellent rating for dust pickup and filtration from Germany’s SLG testing institute.

Other models in our range include the Ultra Active, with bagless super cyclonic technology, HEPA 12 exhaust filters and a 3 in 1 accessory tool.

So let’s check out the range of cordless floor care models. Keep in mind that all operating times mentioned do depend on floor types and household conditions.

In the cordless range, the Ergorapido delivers instant grab and go cleaning for up to 20 minutes, plus the patent pending brush roll clean that cuts off hair, string and debris from the brush roll with the push of a pedal.

The Ergorapido Plus extends that usability time up to a possible 30 minutes with only 4 hours charging time.

The UltraPower model runs up to 50 minutes, with an exchangeable battery pack, and an LED light for illuminating any corner to be cleaned.

The ZB4106 is the first cordless vac to have integrated wheels for gliding over any surface without straining your wrist. The ZB4112 boosts cleaning time up to 20 minutes while retaining the wheels and the double filtration system for better air quality. Finally the Rapido plus provides wheels, cyclonic action, double filtration and a cleaning time of up to 35 minutes.

As you can see, Electrolux have a comprehensive range of floor care to suit your environment and your lifestyle. Come into Bing Lee or browse online for our complete Electrolux floorcare offering.
