Doffler vacuum cleaners: features, advice on selection and operation
The history of the development of such a widespread device as a vacuum cleaner is about 150 years old: from the first bulky and noisy devices to high-tech gadgets of our days. A modern house cannot be imagined without this faithful assistant in cleaning and maintaining cleanliness. Strong competition in the home appliance market forces manufacturers to fight for the consumer, constantly improving their models. A multifunctional and reliable unit can now be purchased from a young brand such as Doffler.
The lineup
The Doffler brand was created by the large Russian company RemBytTechnika, which owns a developed regional network of techno-hypermarkets. For 10 years, the brand has been presented on shelves throughout Russia, and during this period the range of Doffler vacuum cleaners has expanded quite a bit. The most successful and popular units have undergone modifications, design and functionality have been improved. The current model range is represented by the following items:
- VCC 2008;
- VCA 1870 BL;
- VCB 1606;
- VCC 1607;
- VCC 1609 RB;
- VCC 2280 RB;
- VCB 2006 BL;
- VCC 1418 VG;
- VCC 1609 RB;
- VCB 1881 FT.
When choosing a model, it is necessary to proceed from such characteristics as the type and volume of the dust collector, suction power, electricity consumption (on average about 2000 W), the number of filters, the presence of additional brushes, ergonomics, and price.
At Doffler you can find a vacuum cleaner for every taste: classic with a dust bag, cyclone type with a container or with an aquafilter for wet cleaning, which allows you to completely get rid of dust. Owners of small apartments and spacious houses face different tasks, therefore, different models for cleaning such premises are needed. The dimensions and weight of the vacuum cleaner affect the choice. And, of course, for the modern consumer, the appearance of household appliances is important, the design idea should be clothed in an attractive design shell. Before use, you should carefully read the instructions to help avoid damage to the unit. Careful handling of the vacuum cleaner will prolong its life.
Important! If you washed the parts of the vacuum cleaner after work, then before turning them on again, they must be completely dried.
Features of VCC 2008
This dry cyclone unit features an original design in gray and brown. The model is compact and weighs just over 6 kg. Electricity consumption - 2,000 W, suction power - 320 AW. There is no power regulation for this model. The auto-winding power cord is 4.5 m long, but many users note that this is not enough for comfortable work in a large room. The size of the telescopic tube also gives rise to criticism - it is short, so you need to bend over during operation.
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a spacious (2 l) transparent plastic dust collector, which is easy to operate: shaking out the dust and then wiping the walls of the container with a damp cloth is not difficult. In a cyclonic product, due to the special design, the centrifugal force creates a vortex effect. The intake air flow passes through a series of filters like a cyclone, separating large particles of dirt from the smallest dust. The obvious advantage of this device will be that you do not have to constantly spend money on dust bags and look for them on sale.
The complete set includes, in addition to the universal brush, additional attachments: for furniture, parquet and turbo brush. The filtration system has three stages, including a fine filter.The filters can be changed by purchasing new ones or cleaning the installed ones (it is not recommended to wash the HEPA filter). The device has a 1-year warranty.
All in all, this is a decent, powerful vacuum cleaner at a budget price, guaranteeing effective cleaning of floors and especially carpets.

Negativity can cause cleaning noise and short tubing.
Customer Reviews

Many satisfied users point out that there is no need to overpay for a famous brand, when the same equipment and functionality can be obtained for much less money. All Doffler models considered are quite powerful and perfectly cope with their tasks: they qualitatively clean various types of coatings from dust, dirt, hair and pet hair. In some vacuum cleaners, buyers note the insufficient length of the tube and power cord. Many are not satisfied with the high noise level.The lack of power regulation is also a source of dissatisfaction.
The most technologically advanced model Doffler VCA 1870 BL with aquafilter has the highest number of responses in the network. Among similar devices from other manufacturers, this vacuum cleaner is distinguished by an affordable price and high-quality assembly. But in a large number of reviews, consumers pay attention to the following drawback: the maximum level of water filling is indicated on the container, but if the container is filled up to this mark, then the water can get into the engine, since during operation it rises in a vortex flow. Through trial and error, users have determined that they need to pour water about 1.5–2 cm below the MAX mark.
