Features
A function that allows the vacuum to stand upright on its own without needing to be leaned against a wall or placed on the floor. Convenient when you need to pause cleaning to move furniture or answer the phone. Helps prevent the vacuum from falling over and getting damaged.
This vacuum does not have a self-standing function, meaning it cannot stand upright on its own and needs to be leaned against a wall or laid down. This can be inconvenient when pausing cleaning tasks, as it may fall over if not properly supported.
A function that automatically removes hair and debris tangled around the brushroll. Reduces the need for manual cleaning of the brushroll, saving time and effort. Helps maintain optimal cleaning performance.
This vacuum does not have a brushroll cleaning function, so you will need to manually remove hair and debris tangled around the brushroll. This can be time-consuming and require extra maintenance to ensure optimal cleaning performance. Regular cleaning of the brushroll is essential to prevent clogging and maintain suction power.
Equipped with LED lights on the vacuum head to illuminate the cleaning path. Makes it easier to see dirt and debris in dark areas, such as under furniture and in corners. Ensures thorough cleaning even in dimly lit spaces.
The LED headlight illuminates the cleaning path, making it easier to see dirt and debris in dark areas such as under furniture and in corners. This ensures a more thorough cleaning, especially in dimly lit spaces where dirt might otherwise be missed. The LED light helps to highlight dust and debris on hard floors.
A function that allows the stick vacuum to be easily converted into a handheld vacuum. Useful for cleaning furniture, car interiors, and other hard-to-reach areas. Provides versatility for various cleaning tasks.
The convertible handheld function allows the stick vacuum to be easily detached and used as a handheld unit. This is useful for cleaning furniture, car interiors, and other hard-to-reach areas. The lightweight design of the handheld unit makes it easy to maneuver and use for various cleaning tasks. It provides added versatility for cleaning different surfaces and areas.
A function that offers different power settings to suit various cleaning needs. Allows you to switch to a higher power mode for stubborn dirt and a lower power mode for delicate surfaces and extended run time. Provides flexibility and control over cleaning performance.
The multiple power mode function offers two-speed settings, allowing you to adjust the suction power based on the cleaning task. Use the low-speed setting for delicate surfaces and extended runtime, and the high-speed setting for stubborn dirt and debris. This provides flexibility and control over cleaning performance, optimizing battery life and suction power as needed.
A function that allows for quick and easy emptying of the dustbin without the need to touch the dirt. Simplifies the disposal of collected debris, reducing mess and contact with allergens. Makes maintenance more convenient.
This vacuum does not have an easy empty dustbin function, so you may need to manually remove the dustbin and empty the contents. This can be less hygienic and more time-consuming compared to vacuums with a one-touch emptying system. Take care when emptying the dustbin to avoid spilling or creating a mess.
