Electrolux has unveiled a new range of bagged canister vacuum cleaners called Pure D8, of which the Pure D8.2 Silence tested here is one. This series aims to be environmentally friendly, with the devices being made from 55% recycled materials.
It’s almost faultless for the Pure D8 Silence canister vacuum cleaner, the first in the D8 series to enter our comparison. Good suction performance, maneuverability and low noise level, the Electrolux D8 Silence has it all. We also appreciate its electronic variator on the handle which avoids having to bend down to change the suction power.
Strong points
- Quality finishes.
- Excellent suction on thick carpet.
- Useful and functional “Smart” mode.
- Very quiet vacuum cleaner.
- Perfect filtration.
Weak points
- No LED ramp on the main brush.
- Bag capacity a little limited.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude the prices of stores whose the VAT policy is not clear (so-called “gray” stores, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
Electrolux produces an excellent canister vacuum cleaner. We don’t have much to complain about the Pure D8 PD82-4ST, other than the price of its rather expensive bags. Otherwise everything is there: the suction performance is good, the automatic mode which adapts the suction power depending on the floor is very practical and the noise level is moderate. Clearly, this model is a success!
