Man you are a champ with your patient and humorous replies to some stupid comments here. Thanks for the review! Funny fact: here in Hungary people call refrigerators "frigidair", you can guess where that came from!
Hi laz thanks for reaching out sir,I love getting comments even if there negative or strange,iv been very lucky and have had mainly fantastic comments and it definitely spurs me on to make more videos,the odd time I get negative comments I don’t reply or just thank them for watching and commenting,if I get a nasty one I just say I love you ❤️
I love the moment when it is emptied over the flower bed, and I'm glad it's not my flower bed - I would have said exactly the same thing😮😂 And thank you very much for the demo about the filter, when vacuuming water👍
Hey man, nice review , thanks. Haven't seen the blower in action in other reviews. Also Surprised by the good weather there ! isn't always raining in England ? :))
Hi friend, yes it does rain quite allot in the UK but I do love a bit of weather!, have you seen my video about rain? If not check it out, on another note the blower action on the hoover is really good for blasting the fine dust of the filter cartridge!!!! Thanks for watching and commenting and hope you watch some of my other videos 🤘 rock on
I had No idea "Hoover" was that well known in Europe! We just call them "vacuums" here in the USA. Just so you know most Americans do not call recip saws "Sawzall's". Some do but its a old term. Mostly because back in the 1951 in The USA, Milwaukee Power Tools (back when they were a USA company) Invented the reciprocating saw! They called the "Sawzall". It was better than other brands for several years too. So lots of old guys call them "Sawzalls" (Hand me that Sawzall! ) Most people just call them recip saws anymore tho. I'm 54 and I've heard both, but I always say "Recip saw"
Hi Paul awesome to hear from you, hope you are keeping in good spirits, this is what's great about my CZcams journey, I get to chat with cool guys like you and find stuff out and learn things, iv always wanted my channel to be a 2 way street, like an exchange of ideas and I love the bants as well, as you've probably noticed my tool reviews are not exactly on point, I guess if you want a dead serious and in depth makita review I'd say don't watch my channel, buuuuuut if your tired of all them tool review channels taking themselves way to seriously and them bloody anal tests!! I don't want to watch some dude drive in 500 screws untill the battery dies!! I like to have a laugh and a crack and mess about, don't get me wrong I love makita tools,("check out makita man on my channel) anyway thanks for sharing about the recip saws other old name in the states! Cool!! Merry Christmas to you and your family! Oh ps I'm uploading a new video today about my new 10.8v recip saw with a very dodgy song intro. 🤘
Hoover, Sellotape, Biro, Post-It Notes etc etc are all terms used here in the UK where the trademark name has become the generic name for items. I googled it, apparently the name for it is ‘genericized trademark’. It’s funny watching all the pedantic snobby idiots commenting in tears because someone called a vacuum a Hoover 😂
Oh hi friend thanks for reaching out and commenting, dude you have made my day!, wow a name for calling vacuums hoovers and so fourth!!!, I'm not sure why people get a bee an there bonnet about that but hey people are watching my silly videos which is awesome, I'll tell you what if I didn't have cool guys like you commenting on my videos I think I would have just packed this you tube thing in!!! Cheers dude and happy Christmas to you and your family 🤘🤘
Iv just pick one up second hand with the filter on it wont pull anything through the filter looks clean tho. Iv got another filter coming is there anything else it could be stopping it from working?
Oh hi Daniel I did have a problem with my vacuum a while ago when it stopped sucking and it was the Little white impeller sort of thing that sits under the filter cartridge in the main body of the vacuum, it was all sort of blocked up with dirt and hair and was stopping all the suction,might be that? As soon as I cleaned out this little impeller thing my vacuum worked again,please get back to me if I can help any other way 🤟🤟
I have all my 18v system with erbauer , but I definitely like this product. Shall I? - Wait for Erbauer to release a similar product? - Use one 18v battery adaptor such as thisone? You reckon the battery adaptor would fit the bay inside? it is just a couple of inches deep apparently. Thanks
Hi rafael sorry for the late reply, a makita battery just fits by about 4 mm under the cover so if you were using the big erbauer battery plus adhaptor the lid would not shut but if you had the slim erbauer battery and the adhaptor mmmm not sure maybe!!, to be honest if I was you I’d just have the battery lid open or take it off!, hope this has been some help and thanks for reaching out, let me know if you need any more info 🤟🤟
Hi @@UKTOOLTALK Really helpful your comment :) . Im gonna then proceed to order one of this. Thanks a lot I will let you know if this whole thing works. Cheers!!
i have just bought one of these to replace the makita vacuum with the bag as the bag was useless although i could do with a longer hose to attach this to my chops saw or plunge saw etc ? have you come across a hose extension that fits this at sensible prices ?
Oh hi Mark thanks for reaching out and I hope you are well, mmmmm great question dude!, the answer is I don't know but I'll definitely look into it, I can totally see that a longer hose is needed for attachment to a power tool, with me being just a lowly plumber who just uses it for hoovering up little bits of crap iv never thought about needing a longer hose, buuuuut what I have found is the hose that comes with the vacuum kinda gets blocked easily so I'm trying to find a slightly larger diameter hose with a smoother inside somehow, that might be hard because of the concertina way it works, hey you know what's funny I'm just doing another modification on my vacuum to make it better in wet mode, video coming soon, hope you get to watch part 2 of the vacuum review which is up on my channel and part 3 coming soon, anything I find out about extra hoses I'll get back to you about it, have a good weekend sir 🤘
Hi pal, just bought this myself and just wondering if youre suppose to suck water up without the filter? will it not go into the fan bit? Because the filter has a float valve in. Cheers pal
Good evening sir, well then the plot thicken"s!, my vacuum doesn't seem to have a float valve unless I'm mistaken, when I'm sucking up water I usually take out the filter, I think that's best, oh check this out! If youve been sucking up fine dust and want to clean the filter what I do it swap the hose onto the blowing function and it blasts out all the dust from the filter really well (do this outside dude it causes allot of dust to blow about, folks will probably think your vaping!!!) this is Also good for getting all the dust out of the flexi bits on the hose!! Hope this has been some help and thanks for watching the video, I think you will be stoked with your new makita vacuum 🤘
@@UKTOOLTALK what happens when the container reaches full capacity with water will it not go through the motor with there being no shut off valve without the filter in ? Cheers dude

Oh hello friend, thanks for the question its a good one, mmmmm I have used the vacuum at home on the carpets,pepper our dog sheds lots of hair buuuuut is cat hair finer that dog hair? I guess it depends on the breed, anyway I transgress it's OK at vacuuming carpets but only OK, it's great for laminate flooring buuuuut the hose is quite short, so in summary if your after a vacuum for just your home I'd say no don't get it,cheers 🤘🤘
Build quality is good, The hepa filter is not suitable for wet vaccuming. They need a small tap so you can drain off the liquid as you are vacuuming. Once the water level hits the hepa filter you lose vacuum suction
Oh hi Sam hope you and your family are well, you have made me smile on this cold Monday morning!, thanks for your lovely comment and thanks for watching my daft video, there is another video about the vacuum on my channel and one last one which I filmed yesterday which is a kind of makita vacuum super hits and modification so watch out for that, it's trippy about the accent, another dude messaged me saying he struggled to understand what I was saying, he was from the states, I don't think I have a really strong Lancashire accent (that's where I'm born and bred and live, it's in the North West of England!
