    Thanks OP, this will replace the Rowenta one I got a few years back… https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/87705
    Rowenta one has seen better days (I had to convert it to run on Ryobi one+ battery packs when the batteries crapped out). Had a good run out of it, hopefully this one will be even better. The free tefal frypan from that deal is still going really well though.

    • sky blu on 02/02/2017 - 21:36

      Hey just wondering how you did the Ryobi battery on the Rowenta?

      Which Ryobi tool did you pry the "receiver" from? And just mount and wire directly to the back of the Rowenta?

      • stumo on 02/02/2017 - 21:52
        +3

        I use the $19 Ryobi one+ torch as the receiver. I have a couple of these torches that I have modded to bring out a pair of wires straight from the pack out to a hobby RC connector. Lots of uses, I've even use it via a 24V-12V converter to power our camping fridge. As for the rowenta, I just brought out the pair of wires from the dead internal battery, then cable tied my one+ torch onto the handle. Its ugly but its lasted a couple of years now. The one+ packs made that thing work better than new even though it had been used enough to kill its original pack.

    • The Hobo on 02/02/2017 - 22:46

      Had the Rowenta - brilliant vac. Shame they stopped selling them. Lasted 5 years or so.

      Is there any advantage with this model? I can see RRP is $149 ($50 cheaper than the VX51), it lasts for 45min instead of 22min… what are the cons? Is it less powerful? Less versatile?

      • inherentchoice on 02/02/2017 - 22:36

        Well the VX51 has a powered floor head which helps with pet hairs etc.

        You can see it in this video… https://youtu.be/6Xo647SqjTI

        you can remove the stick so it becomes a handheld vacuum.
        it comes with other attachments as well.
        battery life is shorter mainly due to the motor head.

        • snapper on 02/02/2017 - 23:51

          Ok thank you. I think those feature are preferable for me. Pulling the trigger!

        • mrgeckoz on 02/02/2017 - 23:59

          @snapper: pleasure. i have a dyson dc54 for something like once every fortnight clean, but i do want something for day to day use…so i bought it!

        • snapper on 03/02/2017 - 00:02

          @mrgeckoz: Same here - I have a Dyson DC14. I was trying to click&collect at numerous stores but just kept getting an error "items not available/listing expired" or some BS. Guess I left it too late.

        • mrgeckoz on 03/02/2017 - 00:22

        • Jackson on 03/02/2017 - 09:07

          I believe both units can have the stick removed to become handheld

    Bought one half year ago at $120+. It can work roughly 20 minutes after every full charge . Considering the much lower price than dyson's product, it's a good machine doing its job.

    • Jackson on 03/02/2017 - 01:29

      Can you turn the power head off and get 40 min of charge?

    Was gonna bite, but I'll spend the extra for the Dyson V6. Got pretty bad sinus issues in this house so a hepa filter is compulsory for us.

      only V6 Absolute model equipped with HEPA.

      any other variants just blows whatever it sucks.

      Cheapest 'Absolute' during sales is around $430

        Thanks. Yep, it was the 'absolute' I was looking at.

        Now to think of it, I'll grab this and put the difference towards importing a ~$300 air purifier from China :).

    • Cheap Rich Guy on 04/02/2017 - 15:57

      Nasonex spray is a better deal if you want to treat your sinuses.

      • lyl-Lychee on 04/02/2017 - 21:37

        lol I'm already on a nasonex prescription.
        Better to treat the cause than the symptoms though.

        Getting rid of indoor free floating formaldehyde (probable carcinogen) is a bonus too, you know.

    It's selling out pretty quickly - I've tried to buy from two stores (6km and 13km away) and in both cases got all the way to trying to confirm the purchase which fails with an error. The error indicates no stock available (and the listing doesn't seem to allow for postage either, pickup only).

    So it definitely seems popular..

    $119 on their website with Click 'n' Collect available at every store near me and also available for free delivery. Granted $99 was nicer but still decent price at $119 given HN only dropped these by $10 to $189 (price match?) - was just about to buy one at $189 - thank God for OzBargain.

    • inherentchoice on 03/02/2017 - 13:32

      Yes $119 with free delivery is still a good deal.

      Good Guys does have a price guarantee which should bring it down to $105.

      https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/pay-less

      • hopper on 03/02/2017 - 15:16

        $105? please explain

        • inherentchoice on 03/02/2017 - 15:23
          +1

          Click the link and read the T&Cs of their price beat guarantee. They are offering to pay 120% of the difference.

          $189 - $119 = $70
          70 * 1.2 = $84
          $189 - $84 = $105

          Probably just go into a Good Guys store and show them the Target Catalogue and ask them to beat the price at $105 up front… https://d3i63g6yqk8ui8.cloudfront.net/imageicon/trg/prod/j00…

          If it works then maybe you can post a new deal for this vacuum at $105.

          Actually reading that catalogue carefully it looks like Target made an error and mixed up the prices of the two stick models. That's really good of Target to honour the price error though.

    • hopper on 03/02/2017 - 15:24

      yes, thanks, but i was unable to use the promo code "SPENDSAVE20" as stated on their home page for discount :(

      • inherentchoice on 03/02/2017 - 15:30

        That code is for clothing and homewares, not electronics.

        • inherentchoice on 03/02/2017 - 15:31

          @hopper: $105 from Good Guys is a decent price though, definitely worth a try and I don't see why it wouldn't work.

        • Lord Ra on 03/02/2017 - 16:53

          @inherentchoice: Tried it. They didn't go for it.
          Quoted them from the site but they had difficulty comprehending it. Final statement was to buy it at $189, then go online and lodge the claim. THat would bring it down to $105. But Target is right outside work vs driving and all that for the extra $15. Guess I will just go with Target this time around with my 1.5% cashback.

        • inherentchoice on 03/02/2017 - 17:11

          @lordra: Ah for calling themselves the "good guys" that doesn't sound very helpful of them.

          What is PAY LESS, PAY LESS?

          PAY LESS, PAY LESS refers to The Good Guys PAY LESS PROMISES. With these promises you can trust you’re getting the best price because you’ll PAY LESS before you buy and PAY LESS after you buy from The Good Guys.

          Yet somehow based on your experience they turned "pay less" into pay more. :o

        • maxall on 03/02/2017 - 17:36

          their price beat only for listed store. Please check whether Target is on their list. painful deal with them for price beat

        • Lord Ra on 03/02/2017 - 22:33

          @inherentchoice: EXACTLY. So Paul from the store in Kotara, Newcastle, said that they would price match and get it to $119. So pointed out that the website says they would beat the price. So then he says, sure, $118.
          From the site :
          "How does WE’LL BEAT IT work?

          If one of our competitors* has an advertised price for an identical product, just show us the advertisement in print or on your phone at any The Good Guys store. We’ll check that the price is current and that the item is in stock and then we’ll beat their advertised price!"

          Source

          I point out that I will get it for much less if I do the 30 day price match to which he says, 'go do that then'. He did not confirm or deny if Target was on the list but they did agree to match it so I suppose that it is still on the list.

          Is this worth it for the $$? Just in the market for something that I can use for my car too. Cordless as its communal parking and there are no power points in the parking lot.

        • TheContact on 10/02/2017 - 07:51

          According to Dyson(as in specs for both the Vax and V6 coming from Dyson), it's about 25% less powerful than the V6 on normal. 21 air watts vs 28. Of course, on max, the Vax gets obliterated.
