According to our vacuum expert
When using the Philips Performer Ultimate FC8955/09, you won't miss a single speck of dust. That's because this vacuum's multi-surface brush is equipped with LED lighting. This way, you'll easily see all dust, even in darker spots. In addition to this multi-surface brush, you'll also receive a special carpet brush. Even high-pile carpet or coarse rugs won't be a challenge with this brush. This vacuum also has an automatic on/off function. If you place the tube on the floor, the vacuum will turn off immediately, and when you pick it up, the vacuum will turn itself back on. The suction power can easily be adjusted with the remote control on the handle, which will save you a lot of bending down.

Looks great, sucks really well! The squeegee works perfectly! Makes little noise, has multiple positions, has many attachments! I'm very happy with it!

Our previous Sebo vacuum cleaner has served us for more than 15 years and already had a stepless control in the handle. We didn't want to miss out on that comfort and after some searching our eyes fell on this Philips with the illuminated floor brush and handle control. I don't think there are any comparable devices on the market at the moment (2017). However, the features that this vacuum cleaner has are very handy and indispensable after a few days of use! The biggest asset is the LED lighting that is built into a very low floor brush, so you can easily go under any furniture. Floor brush is actually a wrong choice of words, as bristles have been replaced here by rubber strips. Three of these strips are supplied separately and it takes some skill to mount them in the base. Why they are not confirmed from the factory is a mystery to me. In my opinion, the pedestal slides less smoothly over hard floors than I am used to and I wonder whether scratches will not appear over time in waxed parquet and some delicate tile floors. The LED floor brush works very well on carpet, you regulate the desired suction power on the handle, the display on the vacuum cleaner clearly indicates the selected setting. A carpet brush is included, but that seems unnecessary to me, unless you have full carpet. However, the lighting that is oh so handy is missing! It would be even better if Philips also provided LEDs in the handle itself so that the work surface is also illuminated when you use the attachments! Positive is the auto-off function, the quiet operation despite the high suction power, the conveniently placed dust bag, the long handle with control and the long cord. The weight is also worth it. Due to the wiring that is incorporated in the hose, it feels a bit stiffer, but you get used to it quickly. Conclusion: a vacuum cleaner that approaches perfection. It remains to be seen whether the rubber strips are sufficiently wear-resistant and whether the electronic functions such as the auto-off and the LEDs continue to work without any problems.

super suction, ultra modern, LED lighting is ideal in dark places, eg under bed.
