The Philips PowerPro Expert FC9729/09 is a bagless canister vacuum similar to the Philips FC9745/09. Difference: it only comes with a hard floor brush in addition to the classic brush, while opting for red.
The Philips PowerPro Expert FC9729/09 is a bagless canister vacuum that works on all floor types. Unlike the FC9745/09 model which has multiple accessories, this one only comes with a hard floor brush to vacuum, as its name suggests, on hard floors and parquet floors. This canister vacuum has good maneuverability which makes it pleasant to use.
Strong points
- Excellent suction performance on all types of floors.
- Comfortable collector capacity.
Weak points
- Foam filter very quickly clogged with dust (it will have to be cleaned regularly).
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 prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
Just as we noticed on the Rowenta Compact Power Cyclonic 3A RO3753EA, all promises are kept on the RO3731EA model which has a similar technical sheet. It is compact and lightweight, so quite handy. It also provides good filtration and, although perfectible, its emptying system is practical. The only difference with the model we tested lies in the design since the RO3731EA has a blue dress.
