While most hard-floor cleaning is a simple task for vacuum cleaners, we’d have preferred the option to use a higher power setting and switch the brush bar off manually. We found it became our default vacuum cleaner for quick clean-ups and even major spring cleans around the office during the time we had it. And at just 72dB(A) on power level one the Athlet is handy for a quick vacuum, even when the television is on. Thorough cleaning performance and minimal maintenance thanks to SensorBagless™ Technology with sensor controlled performance monitoring. There are pieces of Velcro at the end and a diagram to say this wraps around the handle, but the Velcro is simply in the wrong place and doesn’t secure to itself if it’s wrapped around the handle.

You do need to ensure that the shoulder strap is tight enough so it doesn't slip back off, which is particularly important when bending over (cleaning the stairs, for example). The Athlet is inspired in some areas but falls down in others, so it will very much depend on how you intend to use it. Charging is by a wall-socket adapter with a flying lead that plugs into the cleaner just below the handle. As mentioned, you get a shoulder strap for carrying the cleaner around, with the end of the hose and the upholstery and crevice nozzles within easy reach. The built-in Lithium-Ion battery provides up to 60 minutes of run time from a single charge, giving you plenty of time to thoroughly clean the whole house.

Bosch's vacuum is also able to lie totally flat, which makes vacuuming underneath tables, chairs and raised furniture very easy. Even from the sound of the motor on full power, you can tell this is a cleaner that means business, and the suction power through the floor head is enough to generate quite a bit of ground suction. That’s quieter than the majority of traditional mains-powered vacuums we’ve tested, apart from the models that are designed to be ultra-quiet.Up the stairs, throughout the bedrooms, even the kids' playroom are no match for its powerful motor and extra long runtime. Get closer to the skirting board and main head’s edge performance isn’t as impressive as with the open-space cleaning. The upright nature of the Athlet means that weight is far less of an issue, as it is usually resting against the floor, rather than being lifted and carried around. Remove the floor head and you can attach a clip-on hose and a selection of tools for reaching more inaccessible places while you carry the main unit on a shoulder strap.
