I'm confused on how this works, this is electric right? So why is the cord detachable? Will it work w/o the cord?

I don't have the ZAQ Dew, but rather the ZAQ Mirage and I think the cord is just detachable for packing purposes. It does not work without the power cord.

It is electric. It will not work without cord. It's not battery operated. I detach the cord to refill at sink.

The cord is detachable to make cleaning easier. It does not work without the cord.

Does not come with a cord, have to supply your own. If your talking about the cord retaining space, it is a space with a hook you wrap the cord around that keeps the plug in place while using so it does not come unplugged. Hope that helps.

Could you please elaborate as I do not quite understand your question. It seems like removing the power cord would make the unit useless.

No retractable cord. You have to wrap it up on the back. Vacuum works great though. We love it.

The cord is not retractable. The reason our vacuum became unreliable has been due to a loose connection. If we pulled slightly on the lead or pushed it slightly into the back of the machine it would work. It maybe a simple loose connection but infuriatingly it seems a huge job to remedy the problem. In short if the lead still comes out of the plastic rotating lug that you wind the lead around I would be worried you would eventually have the same problem we experienced. Good luck on your decision.

No it is not detachable. The coiled cord is fine for me. It's not that long but does stretch pretty far.

The cord does retract. We have not used that feature so I'm not sure how much of the cord is left out. I tried retracting ours to find out but it doesn't work.

It has an adapter with it. It that slips out of the plug easily. I just use an extension cord and have no problem.

Well, it's a good sturdy switch. I don't know about that kind of cord - they're usually fatter than normal, aren't they? It might work if you need a way to switch off a vacuum and this is your last hope. I don't know why you just can't pull the plug, but of course that's up to you. i think I'd try it if a regular appliance repair service had no answer for you. But if it's not actually strong enough to handle the required amount of electricity, what would happen - fire? I'd definitely find out about that before putting it on the vac cord!

The cord itself is not included. There is a plug-in near the handle, but the cord is purchased separately. You need one rated for outdoors and according to directions so it won't burn out. I have a 100 ft. 14 gage one and I have to plug it in once at the house and once at the garage to cover our lawn. Be careful not to run over it with the mower as it will cut it, sparks will fly, and you are done until the cord is repaired. I go in an "S" pattern moving away from the outlet and drag the cord along as I go so I don't cross over it. My wife has arthritis and can't start a gas mower on her own, so this electric is perfect for her if I am ever away from home. The cord itself is not included.

The cord is permanently attached to the pump at one end and the other end is a normal type of wall plug. In between there is an inline switch and some kind of adapter so it is possible to detach the cord without removing the cord from the wall. If you do not understand what I mean about the adapter then the important thing is that it is not important. The important thing is that replacing the cord requires replacing the pump.

Sorry, the cord is not detachable. I'm glad that it isn't, because if it were, then it would have that aggravating break-away magnetic cord!Yes, the plastic perforated pan that comes with it also lets you use it for steaming such things as fish or veggies. Hope this helps.~Daquan13

Hi,You need to supply your own extension cord. It plugs in at the handle, with a little loop to help hold it in place. I used a velcro strip to hold it better, as it would sometimes come loose. Really, though, pay attention to complaints about the auto-feedling line. It's a pain. For what this thing costs, it could work better.

This is electric. The cord comes from the clip to hang and be plugged into a wall socket. It works quite well but be careful it gets hot real fast and the little switch is on top and if you touch the metal it will burn.

It comes with a detachable power cord, but with one major issue. They use a 3rd party to manufacture the cord. My first one split just past the plug and wires became exposed. I contacted Phillips and they put me in touch with the North America supplier. A new wall cord was 65$. Since my unit was 3 years old, it was cheaper to purchase a whole new unit. My second unit's cord split within a month of owning it. It was much cheaper and easier to pick up a universal power supply at radio shack. I went through so much trouble with this because the sound quality was one of best I've heard compaired to anything I've heard on the market at price points under 200$.

Hello. I'm glad that you are interest in this item, unfortunately I'm sure of the answer to that question. I only tested it with the cord that was provided, which worked perfectly. Have a blessed day.
