Editorial note

The Philips PowerPro Expert FC9742 is a vacuum cleaner that stands out for its cyclonic suction technology, ensuring optimal efficiency in cleaning surfaces. Its 2 L tank capacity allows for extended sessions without the need for frequent emptying, which is an advantage for users with regular cleaning needs. Additionally, its ergonomic design and reasonable weight of 5500 g facilitate maneuverability and transport, making usage more enjoyable. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. Although the noise level of 76 dB is acceptable, it may be perceived as too high in quiet environments, which could disturb users sensitive to noise. Furthermore, the 2 L capacity may require frequent emptying, especially in households with pets. The fixed tube also limits flexibility when vacuuming in tight spaces, making certain cleaning tasks more laborious. Finally, the 7 m cord length, while acceptable, may not be sufficient to cover large areas without having to change outlets. Overall, the Philips PowerPro Expert FC9742 offers good value for money thanks to its advanced features. Users appreciate its ease of use and suitable accessories, although improvements could be made in terms of flexibility and capacity to make it an even more efficient product.
