Titan - TTB774VAC

My Shark Pet was on offer £149. it's pathetic now. Got a Screwfix Titan builders one. noisy as anything, bought a better pole/brush off ebay and it's amazing. £48 in total.

That might do for you. I got a similar vac, a Titan fron Screwfix and have been very pleased with it. It's very noisy, as it's shop and not domestic. I bought it for dealing with various bits of dust and rubbleand ash, kept it as a general downstairs vac for floors that are brick and stone with rugs. Upstairs we have carpet and pets and I have a Sebo, but that's partly because I'm not prepared to lug the Titan up and down stairs, I need a vac on each floor. I've only used it once as a wet vac but it was very effective at that too. https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttb774vac-1300w-16ltr-wet-dry-vacuum-220-240v/826kh

Titan wet/dry vac I bought for my shed. Basically a shop vac. Insane suction, stupidly simple, and just werks. It's better than any "household" hoover I've ever had.

For a house with carpets, I would always go with an upright with a roller. So much better for fluffing up carpets. For hard floors, a Henry would be perfect. To counter the Henry, Screwfix ow brand titan wet and dry vacuums are amazing! so cheap, but so much suction. Have a couple for my workshop and don’t want to say bad things about Henry.. but I think it’s better than him.

I got the titan one and they are alright. Great for things you just don’t want to wreck your proper vac for. Mine is best as a wet vac - if I’m changing a radiator and expecting some water to come out i get the vac on it and it is powerfully enough to make the water go horizontally into the vac rather than fall.

Wet dry vac is way to go, titan is a brand you could look into should be strong it's for construction painting and decorating and the likes

Shark for daily vacuums (yeah right 'daily'), and a Titan wet dry vac from screwfix for deep cleans and dust that's not appropriate for the shark. The Titan was about 50 quid and comes with wheels, you do have to get floor head attachments but they're generic. Also does blow for when I can't be arsed to sweep the front path or need to blast the PC

Definitely. I have a cheap titan I got in screwfix. Cost €55,got it cos builders were in years back. But the suction in this cheap hoover is lightyears ahead of the cordless Dyson.

Thanks very much for that recommendation. I'd already looked at a few Titans ... other models have more mixed reviews than this one, quite strange. So, useful to hear of someone's experience of it. Seems to tick all my boxes!

Titan out of Screwfix, twice the power of any of the fancy yokes and half the price
