    Hi, i’m currently looking for a Vaccum cleaner and i can’t see any reviews on Rowenta or Bosch Vertical Cordless Vacuums?

    Heya SonyBekoSamsung1981, sorry for the delayed reply! We haven’t tested any Rowenta or Bosch models yet, but you can submit a vacuum to be reviewed to our product finder tool at the bottom on the review pipeline page (there are also a few vacuums from Rowenta and Bosch models listed on our product voting page). If a vacuum wins the popular vote and lines up with our testing criteria, you can be sure we’ll run it through our test bench.

    In any case, please don’t hesitate to reach out again if you have any further questions or feedback!
