The Atrix VACBP1 HEPA Backpack Vacuum is designed to be used for the those big jobs, air vents and big curtains for example, and as more of a commercial model for the cleaning of big spaces like offices and schools. It has HEPA filtration – four stage with three quart capacity – and promises to be multi functional as the vacuum can be converted to a blower for even more outdoor tasks but is it able to perform?
One of the main selling points of this Atrix VACBP1 is versatility and many buyers appreciate the different capabilities of this vacuum.
Versatility is vital if this backpack vacuum is going to suit all those tasks and environments. One of the added benefits here is that it comes with a telescopic wand so users can get into all the nooks and crannies. There is a slight problem with this idea of greater versatility because while a backpack should mean that users can roam those large spaces, those big offices and the outdoor areas in need of a blower, the cord is only said to measure at around 2ft so an extension cord is needed at times. Wherever this vacuum goes, however, there is plenty of praise for the suction. Some talk about strength on a professional level, which means that it should suit those proposed locations, and some say that it so impressive that it sticks to the floor.
The power and potential of this Atrix Backpack Vacuum are quite impressive but there is a little work to be done on that “backpack” element if this product is going to get 5 stars from all users.
As this is a backpack vacuum, there is a heavy emphasis on the comfort and fit in order for wearers to use it with ease for as long as is necessary – some of these design features work pretty well but some buyers can see the flaws. The shape is pretty ergonomic with the promise of ideal weight dispersion, although a more substantial harness with a stronger element across the sternum would be appreciated by some to enhance this, and it is light enough to be carried around with ease at just 10lb. There is also the accessory storage in the loops of the belt strap so everything that users might need is on-board and in easy reach. Again this is one of those features that is better in theory than in practice and could do with a little adjusting on future models so that items are more secure.
The final verdict on this Atrix VACBP1 HEPA Backpack Vacuum:
There is a lot of love for this vacuum with lots of buyers saying that they can get plenty of jobs done in a short space of time, despite the issue with the cord, and there is no doubting the power and potential on offer. There is room to improve in the harness and weight distribution but the basic ideas and capabilities are strong and it generally lives up to its aims of all-over, high suction cleaning with ease.
