Pros
Sort
-
Build quality was one of the strongest points, with reviewers repeatedly describing premium materials, sturdy construction, and a solid, high-quality feel.
-
Self-standing storage was widely liked, especially in upright/Comfort mode, though one reviewer noted it only stands by itself in that configuration.
-
Reviewers repeatedly praised the HX2 Pro's suction, with several calling it exceptionally powerful or excellent, though one lab comparison found Dyson rivals stronger in raw suction.
-
Noise impressions were favorable overall: reviewers described it as relatively quiet, less irritating than typical vacuums, and quieter than a Dyson V10.
-
Fine-dust pickup on hard floors was excellent across lab tests, with flour, sugar, and fine crumbs cleared cleanly.
-
Filtration and dust containment received strong marks, including HEPA praise and one retailer review describing dust as staying contained rather than returning to the air.
-
The Pro bundle was praised for a broad accessory set, with multiple nozzles, extra rollers, batteries, chargers, and storage options highlighted as useful.
-
Versatility was a major theme, with reviewers praising multiple configurations, while some felt the 3-in-1 concept delivered less real benefit than promised.
-
Ease of use was generally good in simple use and floor transitions, though some reviewers separated that from the less convenient bin and mode-switching issues.
-
Debris illumination was praised for revealing floor messes and lighting under furniture; one demo also called the headlight bright.
-
LED lighting was usually helpful for revealing debris, though at least one reviewer said it was weaker than Dyson's green laser.
-
Floorhead design drew both praise and criticism: reviewers liked its coverage and multi-surface tools, but some faulted the soft roller and hair-management limitations.
-
Overall verdicts ranged from premium praise to one long-term non-recommendation; most reviewers liked cleaning power but disagreed on whether the drawbacks were acceptable.
-
Design impressions were strongly positive, with reviewers calling the vacuum beautiful and praising its clean, futuristic lines.
-
Automatic floor sensing was viewed positively, especially for switching between carpet and hard floors without manual changes, though not every review focused on it.
-
Battery and charging were mixed: dual batteries were valued, but short preferred-mode runtime and extra-battery dependence remained concerns.
-
The convertible 3-in-1 layout drew mixed responses: many liked the flexibility, but several found switching modes fiddly or less useful than expected.
-
Low-pile carpet pickup performed well in controlled tests, with reviewers reporting visible residue removed and low suction being enough in one demo.
-
Handling was split by configuration and reviewer: Comfort mode lowered hand weight and felt easy to push, but others found turning clumsy or poorly flexible.
-
Area-rug and floor-transition handling was generally positive when the floorhead automatically adjusted power or brush behavior across surfaces.
-
Cordless use was praised for freedom of movement and as a plausible replacement for a plug-in cleaner.
-
Carpet hair pickup impressed in multiple tests, including visible pet hair and combed-in cat hair.
-
Onboard and dock storage for tools was praised as convenient, especially for keeping common tools attached or nearby.
-
Runtime was mixed: extra batteries helped, but reviewers found preferred settings much shorter than headline claims.
-
Maintenance was mixed: reviewers liked easy filter care or self-cleaning features, but one long-term user found filter cleaning could be easier.

One long-term user praised the floorhead for avoiding backward flicking of debris.
-
One hands-on video found assembly quick and easy, with parts clicking together without trouble.
-
One review found the vacuum cleared flour and sugar from wood in a single pass, supporting strong groove pickup on hard floors.

Edge cleaning was excellent in one controlled test, with dirt removed right to the skirting-board edge.
-
Hard-floor hair pickup was strong in one pet-shelter test, where the reviewer said it had no problem with the hair.

One retailer review strongly praised warranty and support coverage, calling it among the best in the business.
-
Medium-pile carpet pet-hair pickup impressed one reviewer, who reported clearing visible hair in several passes.
-
One review praised the Vortex-style cyclone path for separating fine dust from coarser dirt before emptying.
-
One review tied value partly to expected longevity, saying the machine is built to last if looked after.
-
Under-furniture use benefited from the handstick configuration and helpful lighting, making low and high reach more practical.
-
Comparative results were mixed: one reviewer placed its cleaning among the best tested, while another found it weaker than Dyson at spill pickup.
-
The floorhead seal impressed one reviewer for total coverage but disappointed another when hard-floor Cheerios lacked enough traction to pass under the head.
-
One hands-on reviewer liked that the brush motor shuts off on hard floors, framing it as a useful way to save power.

One reviewer treated the self-standing cordless configuration as a distinctive trick rarely seen in cordless stick vacuums.

One retailer review said the pivoting design could work under furniture with about four inches of clearance.
-
One review found pet-hair performance generally decent, especially on hard floors and medium-pile carpet, while noting tougher entrance matting left some stubborn hairs.

One demo described the agitator as helping the vacuum move on carpet, suggesting a mild self-propel feel.
-
In a pet shelter entrance-mat test with heavy traffic, performance was described as decent despite some stubborn hair remaining.
-
One review liked that floor-type detection and roller behavior helped protect soft wooden flooring.
Cons

Above-floor use was limited by weight and balance, with reviewers noting high cleaning could become a struggle.
-
Value was polarized: reviewers admired premium performance and build but repeatedly questioned the high price, especially given the bin, weight, and feature tradeoffs.
-
Hair-wrap resistance was sharply mixed: one reviewer saw no wrap, while others complained of tangled hair or missing anti-tangle tech.
-
Tool and mode changes split reviewers: some found configuration changes easy, while others called parts stiff, roller swaps fiddly, or conversion a faff.
