Suppose a metrizable separable space Y is sigma hereditarily disconnected, i.e., it is a countable union of hereditarily disconnected subspaces. We prove that the countable power X ω of any subspace X ⊂ Y is not universal for the class ₂ of absolute G δ σ -sets; moreover, if Y is an absolute F σ δ -set, then X ω contains no closed topological copy of the Nagata space = W(I,ℙ); if Y is an absolute G δ -set, then X ω contains no closed copy of the Smirnov space σ = W(I,0). On the other hand, the countable power X ω of any absolute retract of the first Baire category contains a closed topological copy of each σ-compact space having a strongly countable-dimensional completion. We also prove that for a Polish space X and a subspace Y ⊂ X admitting an embedding into a σ-compact sigma hereditarily disconnected space Z the weak product W ( X , Y ) = ( x i ) X ω : a l m o s t a l l x i Y X ω is not universal for the class ℳ ₃ of absolute G δ σ δ -sets; moreover, if the space Z is compact then W(X,Y) is not universal for the class ℳ ₂ of absolute F σ δ -sets.

We prove that the countable power $X^{ω}$ of any subspace X ⊂ Y is not universal for the class ₂ of absolute $G_{δσ}$-sets; moreover, if Y is an absolute $F_{σδ}$-set, then $X^{ω}$ contains no closed topological copy of the Nagata space = W(I,ℙ); if Y is an absolute $G_{δ}$-set, then $X^{ω}$ contains no closed copy of the Smirnov space σ = W(I,0). On the other hand, the countable power $X^{ω}$ of any absolute retract of the first Baire category contains a closed topological copy of each σ-compact space having a strongly countable-dimensional completion. We also prove that for a Polish space X and a subspace Y ⊂ X admitting an embedding into a σ-compact sigma hereditarily disconnected space Z the weak product $W(X,Y) = {(x_i) ∈ X^{ω}: almost all x_i ∈ Y} ⊂ X^{ω}$ is not universal for the class ℳ ₃ of absolute $G_{δσδ}$-sets; moreover, if the space Z is compact then W(X,Y) is not universal for the class ℳ ₂ of absolute $F_{σδ}$-sets.
