    I got one today from the Southport store. However it was a vax but a cheaper one £60 reduced to 50. Feel a bit cheated if everyone getting the £100 one.
  • For those wondering if argos are still offering a substitute, I can confirm the branch in bolton are. Reserved mine last night after coming across this thread and picked it up this evening which is a SS8 model. This a cheaper one than the earlier versions, however still cost more than £25 and although it's been previously returned (Sellotape on box, water tank damp inside) it works perfectly fine, you still get 2 years guarantee, but best of all, this model comes with two mop heads instead of the usual one!

    Many thanks to everyone who has been spreading the word.:beer:
    It's never too late so take that leap! :T

    I think we might have problems if we need to get any repair/replacement under the guarantee. The receipt shows the Steamworks one (at least mine does), so not sure how we could convince Vax we have a genuine guarantee. Argos might honour it but not so sure about Vax.

    Still worth a chance for £25.
  • Went into Chichester store today and ordered the Steamworks mop & got the Vax instead! Thank you so much this site is ace!!!!! :j
  • got 2 from here yesterday,had 7, now have 5@6pm last night.

    I got a s87 T2 from Winchester Store today
  • I read about this in Martin's weekly email a little while ago and tried to get one locally with no success. I still needed one so i logged in yesterday and reserved the last Steamworks model available in Orpington. When I picked it up I was really surprised to see that they'd given me the Vax SS-8. :j

    I can't believe they're still doing this - why isn't it just marked as unavailable rather than supplying more expensive models?

    FYI When I looked yesterday, there was one available in Bromley.
  • Bought one in Newport & two in Abergavenny all were Vax S87-T2 models for £25!! Thanks for the post. Very pleased as are friends & family! :)
