i'd just bought this vacuum in the morning and realised something.
actually singpost has both model: av1200 and av1260.
initially the counter auntie shown me the av1200 model, after asking about the accessories, she checked with her colleagues and shown me the av1260.
of coz I'd chosen the av1260. Very Happy

there are the additional accessories in av1260 - bag, extension hose, connector, brush (additional), and extended crevice. av1200 only comes with upholstery brush and normal crevice (these are also available in av1260).

so make sure that the model is AV1260 before paying.

by kenincf 15th June 2009, 11:26 am

I got mine yesterday! Actually they have both AV1200 and AV1260.

At the Singpost where I bought mine, the display set was AV1260. So I told the cashier I would like to have 1 set by referring to the display set. Then he went inside the store room and took out 1 set with AV1200 for me. I told him it's not the same model. He was like, "Huh???" He checked on his computer screen. Then he went inside again to check out the price difference. About 10 minutes later, he came out with the AV1260 for me. He said the price is the same: AV1260 + free torch tools at $39.90.

I was like, "OK, I take it!". I paid then I left happily. cheers

by **tish** 15th June 2009, 11:28 am

yhahahaha, u very smart!! cheers

by Terrier 15th June 2009, 12:15 pm

by **tish** 15th June 2009, 2:33 pm

lol, the best is vacuum finish, go for a drive to recharge battery...

by Terrier 15th June 2009, 3:12 pm

should you start your engine and vacumn or off your engine and vacumn??

if always off and vacumn will actually cut down the lifespan of car battery lifespan eh... how??

was reading the instruction manual yest. it is not recommended to use the vacuum with the engine on, or use for more than 30min continuously, as it would shorten the lifespan of the vacuum.
