Verdict

The Einhell TC-AV 1720 DW has a 1250 W motor, 175 mbar suction and a 20-litre steel tank for cold-ash cleanup. Its pleated filter plus fine-dust prefilter, 1.2 m metal-reinforced hose, blower function and four swivel castors make it practical to use and empty. The 2 m power lead and short hose limit reach, and it should not be used on hot ash.
