I love my Gtech. When my first one gave up the ghost, I bought a Shark cordless, couldn`t wait to be rid of it, I hated it! Went straight back to Gtech.

They were great to me and my Air Ram whilst still under guarantee. It was during lock down and they could pinpoint the problem by listening to it over the phone. I was sent new parts free of charge and a label to return the faulty part to them.

I'm onto my 2nd the first lasted about 12 years I have tried a cheaper cordless but eventually bought another gtech AirRam brilliant suction and light easy to use.

Totally agree. I purchased several different makes of vacuum cleaners, from very expensive to much cheaper. None of them ever really did thejob I expected and hoped they would do. Then three and a half years ago my kids gave me the air ram and hand held one for christmas. From the start I knew this was exactly what I had been looking for over the decades.

East to use, light to move, powerful suction, easy to clean, etc. etc. When I was in my house it did both upstairs and downstairs with ease and efficiency and hand held one did stairs very well, and my car. In my flat rarely use the hand one, but it i good to have it. The upright goes with ease over my bedroom carpet the rug in my living room and the hard floors for the rest of the flat, with the handle folded down it stores easily.

Hopefully, will not need replacing,but when it does will probably be by another GTech.

I wouldn’t have anything else, everything can be repaired easily on them and they are so efficient.

I also have the hand held Gtech for the stairs etc.

My Gtech AirRam is seven or eight years old. I absolutely love it. They are ideal for anyone who has arthritis in their arms /hands. So light and easy to handle /carry upstairs. Yet powerful enough to do a good job of cleaning carpets and hard floors. Highly recommend. Good to know Customer Service is excellent.

I absolutely love my GTech air ram. It's revolutionised my cleaning. So efficient yet light and manoeuvrable.
I got it on the recommendation of several Grans on GN. They weren't wrong. A good company by the sound of Eddiecat's experience.

Excellent after-sales service ! I don’t have a GTech, but if I do need a new Vacuum cleaner, I shall consider it.

I had a problem with my 3 year old Gtech cleaner cutting out. I phoned customer support this morning and was put straight through to an advisor. A really helpful lady instructed me how to take various bits apart - whilst she stayed on the phone - so we could pinpoint the problem. It was decided I need a new head unit. I paid her and it's been delivered tomorrow!
I'm slightly stunned by their efficiency! (It's just taken me 2 weeks to get a solicitor to arrange to return our old wills!)
