The vacuum sucking power won't go up it turns of when you press it?
Hi David, that's certainly not what we'd expect. When you turn on the vacuum it is in low-speed. Whilst it's running, press the lower button on the handle once to change it to the high power speed setting. We hope this helps!

Please, I own a vacuum cleaner, but the battery charger broke down. Can I get it from kmart ?
I had the same problem & after much frustration i was eventually unable to find a charger or charging dock! Anko don't have a spare parts department for thier rechargeable vacuums and if you are lucky enough to find one it will be too expensive, you are actually better off buying a new one.
Hi Firas, thanks for reaching out. We're really sorry to hear that the vacuum cleaner you purchased is no longer working. We don't offer spare parts, but our appliances usually have a 12 month warranty so we recommend contacting your local store to discuss your return/exchange options.
You can buy a compatible one on eBay very cheap. Just note the specs stamped on the charger and note the connector type. Then use this information to find one
I am wondering why the vacuum keeps cutting out even though it is charged? It is only a couple of weeks old, what am I doing wrong?
Clean all the filters. They must be cleaned after every use! Probably overheating
Hi Kerry, please do try cleaning the item and if you are still experiencing the same issue, do take this back to any of our stores so our team can assist with a replacement. Thank you.
Are u holding the button all the time then it cuts out u just have to press once and it keeps going
I love this vacuum but after a year the head no longer rotates and I was wondering if it's possible to order a new one? Thank you for your time
The same thing happened to me after one use, i.e.The first time I used it! I emptied & recharged & now it only turns on low- which is useless,not enough sucking power to pick up Anything at all. Was a gift..So I had no receipt to return it

Hi Katrina, I had the same problem with you. Kmart did not give me any useful information. I find Ango product manual in Kmart and get their product support phone and email. When you send the email to them with model number. Their support staff will help you. I got the replacement floor head today. Hope this email address may help you. I bought the cleaner over one years , they did not even ask me the original invoice and sent me replacement free. Great service. info@hegroup.com.au . Good luck.

im guessing the battery died and will not recharge enough to run more than a few seconds [but it shows full charge?] perhaps there is another repair that might fix this? If not - where can we get another battery for this?

Motorised Floor Head of the said VAC is not spinning although Power Pack is fully charged and sucking dust of the carpet
Your lucky I used mine once. Recharged and cleaned it and it doesn't suck Head just spins on low.
one of two things are easy fixes. 1. hair or string might be preventing the head from spinning? [remove beater bar and clean it and the housing & see if that helped to free it up] hope hope. :) 2. maybe the belt operating it might be broken or jammed? dirty connections?
Do we get a spare battery with the product? if not, can we buy additional battery?
No. Googling "EV693 battery" turns up sites that sell replacement batteries, but most are sold out.
What is the warranty on this vacuum
Hi My name is Will Kleiberg from Caboolture.I bought my Anko model number EV693-S296 last year work very good .but battery died can not find were to get a new battery This mean i no longer will i be able to use it I think this battery should last longer Where would i find a new Battery to buy . Waiting for you answer
Hi Will, At the time I had this issue I wasn't able to find any. It's like you rent a vacuum cleaner and you have to pay the price for whatever it takes to die.
What did customer service say?
began looking and still am unable to find another battery - let us know If you find one.
Hi, I’ve had mine for about 6 months but now when I press power it turns on for .5 of a second and then stop. I’ve cleaned everything out and still an issue. Anyone else have this problem ?
Yes ! Just in the last day. I called the number on the back of the vacuum and they wrt were really helpful, whilst they don’t have any in stock they are waiting for parts, they will organise to have a replacement to be sent once they arrive. I’ve had mine just on 12 months. You can over do the battery by having it on charge all the time, I turn mine off when it’s charged but I switch mine off once it is charged.
Why the roller is not rolling when I turn it on? It first made noises then suddenly it stopped rolling.
Have you removed the roller and removed the hairs around it's drum?
I’ve tried to but couldn’t as I don’t have the manual. I’ve looked online on how to do it but the locking clip is different from what my vacuum have.
You mean the manual listed on this page?
spare parts where can find them ????
No Way, I contacted Kmart for it. They don't support for any spare parts. Total waste of money.
spare parts where can find them ???? for hand- stick vac
Would it not make sense to ask Kmart?
