Bosch's Best Cannister

by VacOMatic (theinvisibleboyy@aol.com)
Posted on 3/25/2006

BSG81396 Prestige is another of the few relatively quiet cannisters that do a good job cleaning rugs and bare floors. Telescoping wand is easy to adjust but is not as well integrated as some. The large powerbrush has a rubber strip and works well on medium pile and bare floors, but only has 1 heigth setting. At full speed you hear mostly air noise, but low speed has considerable motor hum (speed control is on wand handle).
Suction/airflow is good but not up to the other german vacs.
The combo uphostery brush parks in the wand handle, but its round brush has no angle setting, making it awkward for horizontal surface cleaning.

Pros Cons
HEPA filtration and filtrette bags
Long hose and cord
Quiet operation at full speed
Powerbrush does thorough cleaning job
Unusual tapered hose
Less suction and airflow than some
Powerbrush noisy, only 1 heigth setting.
Considerable motor hum at low speed
Hose sometimes kinks in tight turns
Small combo brush tool awkward to use
Some awkward detailing of wand parts
