Manual of product FC8261
Editorial note
The Philips FC8261 vacuum cleaner stands out with its high suction power of 250 AW, ensuring deep and effective cleaning on a variety of surfaces. Its bagless design with a 1 L dust container allows for prolonged use without interruption, although this capacity may require frequent emptying during long cleanings. The presence of a washable filter also facilitates maintenance, extending the lifespan of the device. In terms of design, the vacuum features a modern red color and an ergonomic look that fits harmoniously into various interiors. However, the plastic wheels, while practical, may have limited durability compared to more robust materials. Additionally, the fixed tube may restrict access to certain tight spaces, which could pose difficulties during use. Regarding user experience, the 9 m operating radius offers good flexibility, but the noise level of 85 dB may be bothersome for some people during use. The value for money is acceptable, but some users may find that the high energy consumption (1600 W) is a drawback to consider. Finally, while the user manual is helpful, additional online support would be beneficial to enhance the user experience. Overall, the Philips FC8261 is a high-performing vacuum cleaner that meets many needs, but it has some limitations to consider.Score details
