We think it’s a powerful model that’s great for cleaning pet hair and hard floors, while the lift-away design is a useful extra (particularly for stairs and cars).
A downside is that the floorhead is narrower than we’d like, but this does make it slightly lighter.The company has also scrapped advanced extras to keep the weight and cost as low as possible, so you won’t find any LCD screens, adaptive suction, or lights on the brushbar..
Instead, all you get are a couple of indicators displaying the battery level and the selected power setting, along with a button for turning the rotating brushbar on and off.A minor annoyance is that the battery and power mode indicators are next to each other, so it’s easy to mix them up..There are also a few extra attachments, which we’ll cover in the “Tools” section..

Manoeuvrability and Ease of Use.Ease of Use Rating: 4/5.
We found the Halo Capsule generally easy to use, although we have a few complaints about its manoeuvrability.. It’s simple to flick between the three power modes on the Halo Capsule, and, thankfully, you don’t need to hold down the power button when using the cleaner..
The handle position being at the rear makes it easy to push the cleaner around any floor surface, but it would have been nice to see the handle extended further round the body.Go back and forth multiple times for a better clean.
A criss-cross pattern moves the fibres in different directions for a deeper clean..Vacuum rugs first.
These often contain the most dust, so it makes sense to clean them first.You could also bang them off outside to get rid of more debris.
