Customer Ratings & Reviews

Have had this vacuum for a few weeks now and we love it!

As good as dyson if not better for the same price.

Not as powerful as I would have hoped. Doesn’t pick up dirt on first pass. Sometimes needs several passes to get it all.

Not as strong of a suction as we thought it’d be. Could find a better product at a similar price point.

We returned it. The suction was okay, but had a Samsung before that was leaps and bounds better.

Easy to use and lift, but lacks the suction of similar vacuum cleaners. The filter is easy to change and the attachments are great, but at the end of the day its ability to pick up debris is why I rate this so low.

I do not like this vacuum. Mainly because emptying the dustbin is too long of a process which creates a mess and leaves you w/o a vacuum for 24hrs while the filter dries. Otherwise, I do like the maneuverability but it does take multiple times for it to pick up some of the slightly bigger pieces on my hardwood floors. Haven't used it on the carpet to review that.

I use it for lighter maintenance cleaning. It does not have the power of my plug-in vacuum.

I love LG products but this one missed the mark. This vac pushes the dirt around. We missed our return window or I would taken it back.

I received the LG - CordZero Cordless Stick Vacuum with Kompressor, model A925KSM in a huge box with lots of parts that needed to be put together. First, the construction of the actual vacuum, including the telescopic wand is no problem. Then you must put together the charging stand and thread the charging cord through the back of that said stand. That takes a little bit of nimbleness, but not too bad otherwise. First the good. I have the stand stored in a utility-type closet that has an outlet to plug into, nice way to keep it out of the way and my area clutter-free. So, like other cordless stick vacuums, the motor assembly clicks into the telescoping wand and makes the unit top heavy and unable to stand on its own unless you lean it against something. This configuration has 2 batteries that are chargeable at the same time, so there should be no reason that you can not be able to get a nice, long vacuuming time no matter how large an area you may need to do. I am not sensitive to noise, but my husband is and he even commented on how quiet the motor was on the highest turbo level setting. I personally love the telescoping wand because it allows for comfort, no matter how short or tall the person vacuuming is. By the way, the wand must be at its shortest length when you click it on the charging stand, you will hear a tinkling sound that lets you know that you have properly attached the vacuum unit to the stand and the battery indicator on the front of the unit will have lines going up the shape of the battery. In 2019 I got the prior model to this one, the paperwork and brochure that I received at the time called it the A9. The Kompressor is a welcome new addition. If you look at the picture I have included, it is the red push rod that helps push out the dirt and other contents of the collection bin when you open the door or flap to that container. One of my chief complaints, and there must have been many others that felt this way, was that when you opened the dust bin, the filter unit always came loose and you needed either your hands or something else to grab the dirt in the bin. Well, this has now been remedied. Now the bad and the ugly. I was having a terrible time getting my unit to connect with the app through the WiFi, etc. I have an android phone and I downloaded the LG Thin app. You use this app to register the unit's warranty and add the device, through your WiFi, whether that be a home or office. The instructions specifically state that you cannot use either the WiFi setting, but your location's network and that also cannot be a 5G frequency, but must use a 2.4 GHZ one. I have encountered that before and have the option to set my network on that setting. The instructions also state that you should physically be near your router with the vacuum and your phone, too. While I did that, I found it ridiculous that with my strength of router plus extender on the second floor that I would have to do this. However, I tried at several different times and places to no avail to get this linked and I knew that this aspect was one of the items that LG wanted commentary on. Good thing that the 800# is open 24/7. I called over the weekend when I had more time and ran into a terrible experience. First, they offshore you to the Philippines and my customer service person, Kristine, did not speak English like an American does. So, not only did I find it difficult to understand her, I requested that she slow down and spell some of her words because I did not understand what she was saying. I wound up asking her to let me talk several times. Usually at the beginning of a customer service troubleshoot phone call, the operator asks for various set up information, which she never did, and they also ask for the model number so they can reference instructions for that specific unit. I told her my problem and had to stop her and say that "Don't you need the model number." Bottom line, it was very obvious that she was not trained to be able to troubleshoot on this machine and certainly could not communicate with me. She gave me the phone number for the app department, not a toll free call, by the way. I spent 60 minutes on the phone with her to no resolve. While I was waiting on the phone during the many times that she put me on hold, I though what if I delete the device and then try to add it again. I did this 5 times until it finally worked after I got off the phone. The really bad and ugly part is that I did nothing different all these times until it finally worked. I had added it the very 1st time, but it was offline and never connected. After 7-10 times of adding and deleting, it worked. As I write this review, 1 day later, the unit is still connected to the app. After trying everything I knew to do and getting the unit to connect with the app through WiFi, I put it back on the charging stand and have opened up the app, from time to time, and checked on the status, to see if it is still connected.This app uses GPS to identify where the LG item is physically located and it states the status of the machine. So, right now it states that the unit is "Fully Charged..." So, it let me know when it was charging and even sent a notification when it was fully charged. I thank goodness that all of this finally worked out, but in my case it took way too much time, energy, and effort, and when I reached out to the supposed experts at customer service, that went no where, too. By the way, when the machine is not on, you can use the Smart Diagnose button , follow it through to do a product check. In my case,, it did not detect abnormal operation, checking the suction motor, filter and whether the filter needs cleaning, the battery, and if there is any restrained spinning. It dates and time stamps the diagnosis along with general maintenance tips The good is the machine, its operation, and cleaning tools plus replacement parts included, the bad-what is up with the app??? In conclusion, I took 1 star away from my review and even considered taking 2 away. As a consumer, you need to evaluate what is most important to you.

I have an earlier model of the LG CordZero that I've been very happy with, and this new one so far is just as good. There are a ton of things I like about it and only a few things that aren't perfect, but it's still my go-to vacuum for quick clean ups around the house. The charging base is sturdy and makes it really easy to grab the vacuum for use and drop it back in the slot for charging when it's done. I rarely have to switch to the second battery, but if needed it's right there in the stand always charged and ready to go. The run time I get out of a single battery is usually more than enough for me to hit the main areas in my downstairs (at least 15-20 minutes). I also like that the stand has a place to keep both attachments so they don't get lost. When I grab the vacuum to go, I usually pull the crevice tool off and slip it into my back pocket so I have it when needed. The telescoping floor brush is another super convenient feature. I'm over 6' but when it's fully extended I can vacuum without having to stoop over. Then, when I'm doing the stairs, I can shorten it until it's just the right length to clean the steps as I go up. I can switch out the roller head with the crevice tool to get the edges of the steps, as the roller doesn't get all the way to the edges most of the time. The "kompressor" technology is also a game changer. The weak link with most stick vacuums in my house is they fill up really fast with pet hair and I feel like I'm constantly emptying them. With this one, I can shut it off for a second, push the lever down to compress all the hair/debris to the bottom of the canister and then start vacuuming again. I can now do large areas without having to stop and make a trip to the trash can to empty it out. Anything that saves time is a big plus in my book. It's easy to empty out when you're done. Usually pressing the lever down will make everything drop out, but a couple taps on the side of the trash can will get anything that tries to stick. I also pull the filter out of the top each time and tap it into the trash to clear most of the dust off. Then every few weeks I'll wash that filter and let it dry for a day and it's practically as good as new. It does have a wifi connection so you can add it to your LG ThinQ app with other LG appliances, but I haven't found that to be particularly useful for anything. After I'm done using it and put it on the charger, I'll get an alert later that it's finished charging. I guess that's nice, but really isn't necessary. Maybe it'll alert on other conditions if something happens to it, but I have yet to run into that situation. There are a couple of things about it that aren't perfect. One is the suction is a little on the weak side, especially if you have the stick extended all the way. I find myself using it in the "turbo" mode most of the time and then it picks everything up. It's noisier and uses more battery in that mode, but still acceptable. The other thing it does is sometimes leave a little line of dust/pet hair on rugs from the back edge of the roller head. There's a little strip of material like a short cloth brush on the trailing side of the roller. As you're vacuuming and pull it towards you, it apparently gathers the debris. Then when you roll forward again it leaves the line of dust/hair on the rug. The solution for me is to always vacuum rugs by working your way backwards. Then at the end you can clean up that little line of debris. So, it's not perfect but like I said it's still my vacuum of choice for cleanups in between major vacuuming with a corded model. It's light, easy to use, holds a lot of debris, and has a good long battery life. For me, that overcomes its weaknesses.

To sum it up, I really like this vacuum. There was definitely some thought put into the design, it works very well, it is versatile, and using it seems less of a chore than other vacuums I have used in the past. Unboxing and setup are what you would expect, nothing out of the ordinary. Simple, quick, and straightforward. I needed to get the batteries charged up, but I was otherwise ready to go in no time. I did also spend some time installing the suggested App. You can see battery levels, some other usage data that frankly, I am not sure I am interested in, and some diagnostic stuff that may prove useful. I will have to see over time. Probably worth the install. As for the vacuum itself, it has the same quality I have seen in other LG products I have used. Everything is solidly built and put together well. That said, I was kind of pleasantly surprised with how lightweight it was in hand. A big change from the “ancient” standard corded vacuum I have been using. It is very strange for me. I also really like the “controls.” Easy power on and off, levels, and power mode. Simple. Convenient. Comfortable (no trigger thankfully). You get a rather nice stand/mount that I am still trying to determine how I want to set up. Once I decide on a location, I will probably go with the wall option. I really like this part of the whole package. It more or less mostly holds everything. Vacuum, batteries (yes, you get two), and attachments/tools. It is a pretty clean setup, charges the batteries, and it is great to have it all just “there.” One of my favorite parts of this package. In use, I have found the vacuum very effective. Now, my space is rather small, but it is mix of hard flooring and carpet. It handles everything, easily. It has enough power for me in just the normal mode, which really helps with the battery, but the turbo mode works scary good. Now, it is pretty loud, but if only needed in short bursts, it is a non-issue. Perhaps if you need to use it a lot, it is something to think about. One thing I have really also liked is being able to quickly just detach and have a hand vacuum. This is something I have lacked, and it has been very useful. All in all, I have zero complaints about how it, well, just vacuums. It has been great for me. It works, it is easy to maneuver around, and can be used in several different ways. I will also add, that while I am somewhat new to stick and honestly, nice vacuums, I also didn’t really have an issue with the size of the “bin.” It is quite a bit smaller than I am used to, but you can actually compress the contents down, giving you more room. Again, my space is small, so this wasn’t really an issue for me, but it is a nice feature, and really just kind of cool. Regardless, emptying the bin is an easy and clean process. Given my space, this is, again, not a big deal for me in terms of getting my vacuuming jobs done, but I have to commend LG on providing two batteries with this vacuum (and the great charging solution). Per the stated ratings, admittedly in perfect conditions, you should get about an hour per battery. So, things like using some attachments will drain a little faster and using Turbo mode will drain a lot faster…but being able to use one battery and then just swap in the other is just a fantastic add. Those with large spaces and/or big jobs should be covered. I just wish more companies and sectors thought like this. Ultimately, I really like this vacuum. It does all I need it to, and it does it well. It has an excellent storage solution, and “range” is not a concern. It’s built well, and I think it should last over time, which I think is important with something like a vacuum, but perhaps most importantly, it is just easy to use, and it simply makes my vacuuming experience better.

Received the LG A9 and it was a fairly easy assembly out of the box. You simply do 2 clicks and then insert the battery on the vacuum itself. A detailed instruction sheet is included showing you how to access the LG ThinQ app. I signed up with the app and registered it. You click on ADD A DEVICE and place the product information in there. Please note that this app has to be used on a 2.4 GHz network and will not work on 5GHz. For me personally I do not have an automatic switching router so I decided that after the initial run I wasn't going to be changing out my router settings as you don't need the app to run your vacuum. The app basically tells you battery life, cleaning history, filter info, etc. but I can also look at the vacuum and see the same. It IS a convenient feature if you have an easy router change up. It works splendidly without the app however and I am pleased with that. My model came with charging stand, 2 battery packs, a crevice tool, soft brush tool and a cleaning brush tool for the bin. It has the Universal Nozzle power head which was fine for all my needs here. I charged it overnight but have since only had to charge it a couple hours for the battery to be ready again. It's quite nice to have that second battery ready if needed but I haven't had to use it. I clean my 3,000 sq. foot house using the Normal mode and one charged battery lasts. I do not use the Turbo or Power Modes as my floors are mostly laminate with 3 rooms of carpet and I found the vacuum was more than adequate in Normal. I did try Turbo and Power modes out briefly but the noise level is pretty loud so with my sensitive ears I found the Normal perfect. You can use the included charging station free standing or they include mounting hardware for attaching to a wall. They also give you an extra washable filter, which is nice. I love the fact this can become a portable handheld unit by just removing it from the stick. It worked wonders on my carpeted steps heading down in the basement. I had been thinking about buying a handheld for that so it was certainly a real plus to have this feature. As far as the battery running times LG says you will get about an hour of cleaning time in the Normal mode, which I did. If you choose the Power Mode it should last about 20-30 minutes and the Turbo mode drops you down to 6 or 7 minutes. Of course you do have that extra battery waiting but as mentioned the Normal mode is perfect for my needs. After cleaning the dust bin will need to be emptied of course and it's so simple and efficient! You just push down on the Kompressor lever and everything easily comes out. No more using my hand to grab stuck remaining dust out of the bin! During use you can also compact the dust by sliding the lever down several times. On my older stick vacuum I had to empty that bin about 3 times so this was another feature I really enjoyed on the LG. The cleaning brush that's included you'll want to use around the Kompressor plate to clear away debris. I always clean out the dust bin after every use to keep the suction at its highest level. Be sure after you wash the filters they are completely dry before inserting back. LG suggests waiting 24 hours so they are not damp in any way. All in all I found this vacuum to be an excellent choice from ease of use to its cleaning ability. I like that fact it's not too heavy or bulky and has convenience features I really like. I can definitely say I'd recommend it if you don't mind not accessing the app if you just have a 5 GHz network available. As stated, it works perfectly fine with or without the app in my opinion and makes for a most easy cleaning experience. Fantastic design job on this vacuum LG! I love mine!

LG has created another great product. I already own an LG TV, as well as a washer and dryer. Consequently, I’ve already been using LG’s ThinQ app (for Android). Adding this stick vac to my WiFi and the app was very easy by just following the instructions in the app. One thing I feel is missing from the app is the ability to see a numerical representation of the amount of charge the battery has. In other words, I think it should show the battery level percentage. I only noticed this was missing when I wanted to see how much battery I used during one of my vacuuming sessions. I receive notifications from the app when the battery is fully charged. The app works well, but I honestly don’t see it as necessary. I don’t foresee needing to look up my vacuuming history or need to be “told” when the battery is done charging. Maybe if there is an issue with the vacuum would it then prove to be useful. That being said, the vacuum works wonderfully. It’s very easy the switch between the included tools and I really like how it comes with an adjustable telescopic wand. I’ve owned quite a few stick vacs and this is the first one that comes with a wand like that. Other than the wand, the other tool that I use a lot is the crevice tool. We have a Golden Retriever and his long, feathery hair is all over our floors. With past stick vacs, when I try to vacuum up his hair, the vent on the vacuum inevitably ends up blowing his hair away. It’s actually quite frustrating. With this LG stick vac, that does not happen and it’s very appreciated. One thing I found a bit wonky is how the crevice and combination tools are stored on the stand. As I mentioned, I use crevice tool a lot. On the stand, there are 2 spots for storing the tools. The front spot is for the combination tool, and the cleaning brush is stored up inside it. The back spot is for the crevice tool. Each tool snaps into the spots and there is a release button to remove the tool. The release buttons face the front. I’m detailing this to convey the fact that pressing the release button to remove the crevice tool is somewhat difficult. There is not much space to get your finger in there to press the button. It would have been better to place the release button, at least for the crevice tool, on the side so it would be easier to get to. We have a 3100 sq.ft. home, with hard wood floors, rugs and carpet. I’ve been able to vacuum the entire house on a single charge. On the hard wood floors and rugs I use the standard power level; on the carpets I kick in the turbo mode. A single full charge of the battery was able to handle all that without running out of juice. Very impressive. If by chance the battery does not last for a vacuuming session, there is a backup battery that was included. It’s stored away in the included charging stand ready for use. One unique feature of this vacuum is the “Kompressor technology”. While this is a great feature, I would not label it as “technology”. It should be called a “Kompressor button” because that’s exactly what it is. When the container gets full, you manually push down this button to compact down the debris, so more can fit in. Again, a very handy feature, but the name hints that it’s an electronic or automatic function. All in all, this is a great vacuum. It has a very long battery life, with an extra battery to spare. It does a very good job vacuuming on hard flooring as well as rugs and carpets. There are a few “quirks” but I would definitely recommend this vacuum.

I'll preface this by saying this review doesn't live in a "vacuum", pun intended. I have had a few of these stick vacuums over the years, and they've mostly been the same brand, probably the most popular brand in the category. That being said, that manufacturer should be paying attention, this LG is a more than worthy competitor, and is better in some ways that may just prove to be the tipping point for many consumers in the market for one and doing a direct comparison. As such, most of my review points are going to be a bit of a direct comparison to the LG's more expensive competitor. pros: - build quality - Better build quality than what I'm used to. The components feel sturdy and well made, certainly well thought out and engineered. It's very obvious that the team at LG saw something on the market and didn't seek to reinvent the wheel, only to make it better. - adjustable height - How novel, a telescoping main tube that you can slide back and forth, depending on your height and comfort level? - "kompressor"/filter clear switch - This is a really cool feature. Use this external switch to push an internal ring down inside the filter, sort of tamping down the contents. Helps to clear the suction area and to create create more capacity. Akin to pushing down the trash when it gets full so you can fit more in, only significantly less gross since here your hands don't get dirty. - floor stand - Also a nice touch, the included floor stand let's you have a bit more freedom over where the vacuum is stored, though it is still attached via power cable. Nice to not have to drill into the wall unless you actually want to though. - button operation (instead of trigger) - Not the biggest of "pros" of course, but operating via button (including multiple levels of suction per press) instead of a trigger. - 2 batteries included, removable - Another win for this model in my opinion is the inclusion of 2 *removable* batteries, and the ability to charge both at the same time - one in the vacuum itself and the other cleverly tucked away in the stand. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 2 hours on the lowest setting and 15 minutes on the highest, it's very easy to switch to the other battery to keep things moving (and continue to charge the other battery without missing a beat!) - suction - All other technology aside, it actually does a fairly good job of cleaning both carpets and hard floors. It is, however, still a stick vacuum, and while good for day to day cleaning, probably not the deepest clean you'll get. Larger pieces of mess (we have birds at home that make massive messes with seemingly entire giant pieces of nut/seed/what have you) aren't always picked up on the first pass. cons: - no smaller hand held roller at this price point - While it is cheaper than some other manufacturers, I still would've like to have had the smaller roller brush, for pet hair on couches and similar messes. misc: - wifi/app connection - I'm not sure how useful this will be, but there is the ability to connect via WIFI and get the "status" as well as cleaning log. Probably not something I'll use a ton. overall: There are quite a few options out there in this category, but this is definitely one of the stronger ones. Easy 5 stars for me.

The LG Cord Zero is a great option at this price point when you compare it to other vacuums in the price range. It has some positives and some flaws as most products do. Anytime you go with a cordless vacuum you will have compromises. However, none of those outweigh the glory of not needing to find an outlet, manage the power cord while vacuuming, and rolling the cable back up. It has changed the way we clean at our house. We vacuum far, far more often now. We never reach for the dustpan and broom either. It’s just so easy to use. Pros: Its very light weight while feeling solid. When using the vacuum, you never feel fatigue. The material choices are excellent. The main shaft slides up and down very easily for adjustment. The dust bin opens in a way that makes it as easy as possible to land the dust into the garbage bin without spills. The stand that comes with the vacuum is very convenient. I did not want to wall mount, so its nice that LG provided a solid solution for a less permanent option. I like that the vacuum doesn’t use a trigger to turn on/off the vacuum function unlike one if its competitors. Instead, it’s just a button located in an easy to press location on the top of the handle. There’s two main modes, normal and turbo. On normal the vacuum feels like the usual for a cordless vacuum. Weak compared to their corded counterparts. That’s ok because that’s literally every cordless vacuum on the market. The most powerful cordless vacuum cannot match the most powerful corded vacuum. However, the LG Cord Zero does have a nice way to get close to the power of a corded vacuum. Turbo mode. With turbo mode, the vacuum achieves very high levels of suction. It will run out of battery quicker in turbo mode, which is to be expected. The last pro I have is the fact that it comes with two batteries. A cordless vacuum with one battery is not the best situation. Luckily, this kit comes with two! Cons: There aren’t many cons. It takes a bit of getting used to putting the vacuum in its stand. For a while it will feel difficult, but you get used to it after a while. It could be designed better I feel. The last con is that there aren’t that many attachments included in this kit. It would’ve been nice to get one more vacuum head included in this kit. I went on LG’s website, and they have some cool options to purchase separately, so at least you can get more if you are willing to pay extra. Ultimately, the LG Cord Zero is a strong performer. It boasts a useful turbo mode. It feels great to use and is lightweight. It comes with two batteries, and they last a good while. The attachments that did come with the vacuum are useful. You can’t really go wrong at this price point with the LG Cord Zero.

Here is yet another stick vacuum on the market; however, hold on for a second....this one has some things going for it. What's in the box: Surprisingly, a lot. The box is fairly small, but whomever was in charge of packing the box obviously is a world champion Tetris player. I mean this in a good way since there are quite a few things included. Two batteries, charging stand, brush head, and two crevice cleaners are included. Setup: Although there are quite a few parts, setup was fairly straightforward. You click together the stand, click together the vacuum and insert the battery(s). You can then set up wifi, if you want, to get a few more features.....most of which I don't use...more on that. Use: Overall it is fairly straight forward...it is just a stick vacuum after all. There are a few things, though, that I really like. One of those things is the two batteries. If you really want to get your clean on, you simply swap batteries when the first one dies. The second battery charges in its own spot on the charging stand, so both are always charged. I will say, battery life is what you would expect with a stick vacuum. It's not like they included two because the one.....sucks (see what I did there?). The buttons are easy to use. Push to turn on, and then use the other two to change the suction power. You can hold the "plus" sign one for a few sections and turn on turbo boost; however, this will cause you to go running for the second battery fairly soon after....but it is very powerful for a stick vacuum. Unique features: Besides the two batteries (see above), there are the wifi features, the extendable "tube" and a little flappy pushy doodad that helps empty the dust container. The wifi features are..neat...but I found after setting it up I don't use it. On the LG Home app you can see the charge status, how long you've used the vacuum for, and a few other stats. Nothing that I found very useful other than "oh thats neat". The extendable tube I both like, and dislike. I like because it makes the vacuum compact and easier to store. What I don't like, is that the button/slider you use to extend the tube is a little quirky. It sometimes took me a few tries to get it to extend. That dirt container thing? I LOVE. You open the bottom of the container and push down on a slider that pushes all (most) of the dirt and hair right out and into the trash. No more digging in and going on a hunt trying to empty it out. Overall: I really like this stick vacuum. Besides the extending tube quirk, I love everything else about it and that quirk is not enough for me to give it 4 stars rather than 5.

The LG-CordZero Stick Vacuum with Kompressor technology is a great addition to a robovac home. We live in a house with two dogs who shed and insist on bringing the great outdoors inside. With wood, tile, linoleum and carpeted surfaces, as well as furniture, we added a robovac to the family to try to keep up. RoboVacs are a great 90% solution, but there are still corners, behind doors, furniture, and just the odd spots to vacuum. A rechargeable stick vacuum is a great idea, but most that we tried either just didn't have enough vacuum, capacity, or battery to really work well. The other problem with a 'cordless' is that you have to charge it somewhere, you can't just stick it in a closet. The LG-CordZero solves these problems in a compact, easy to store package. The LG-CordZero has a very nice charging stand that hides in a cubbyhole nicely (see picture). LG provides a hideaway second battery that can be swapped and charged while the vacuum is in use. The basic vacuum is sufficient for dust, fur, and dirt, and there is a boost and turbo mode for really dirty stuff. It's also great on furniture and blankets. It comes with a 'beater' head, crevice tool and brush attachment which pretty much covers any surface you need to clean. The 'neck' adjusts to accomodate the height of the user. Setup was a breeze. It literally took us longer to get it out of the box than it did to get it clicked together to use. The instructions are clear and concise. It is WiFi connected, but I found that to be marginally useful. It's not required for operation. The 'compressor' technology actually works pretty well, at least for fur and dust. There is a lever that you press and it pushes the gunk down into the bottom of the 'gunk' well. Since none of these stick vacuums have much storage, it allows you to empty it much less frequently. It also makes emptying it much easier because you open the bottom, flick the lever a couple of times and it pushes the gunk out the bottom. All in all, an excellent addition to a robovac home. It would be welcome in a smaller home or as an alternative to pulling out the corded vacuum to vacuum a room or couple of spots. Highly recommended!

I had the older version of this same model and really liked it. This one is even better as the battery runtime has been improved to 60 minutes from 40. There’s still enough suction at regular power that I hardly need to engage the power or turbo mode for any reason. With the included extra battery I can do the entire house while another battery charges in the docking station. Another difference is the old model included a hard floor and a carpet attachment. This one just has one universal attachment to do both. I think this approach is much better. I’ve had no issues using this all-in-one attachment to clean both my tile and carpet. It also includes a combination tool that can be used to clean your car or if you use it on the end of the telescoping wand I’m able to get random spiderwebs out of the corners of my 10 foot ceilings. The Power Punch tool has a vibrating feature that allows it to aggravate the dust and debris and remove it from upholstery. There is a 5-step filtration system so there are several filters: a prefilter, 2 “cyclonic”, metal, and fine dust, all of which are both easy to remove and washable. My old model also did not feature the “Kompressor” technology which compacts the dirt and hair so that it both stores more and is easier to dispose of. It provides a Kompressor Lever that you can utilize while vacuuming to force the dirt into the bottom of the dustcup. I find this to be a valuable new feature because I constantly had to use my finger or remove the filter to get all of the dirt out of the old one. Pros: High Performance Not that noisy Includes 2 batteries Washable filters 1 large attachment for all floors Multiple smaller attachments Kompressor technology Wifi enabled Docking station can be placed on floor or wall mountable 10 year motor warranty (1 year general) Cons: None! Overall, this is an excellent cordless stick vacuum and I have no hesitation recommending it to anyone. The increased runtime and extra battery give you two hours which should be enough to cover an average or even large home.

The vacuum stick has great suction on both hardwood and our area rugs. It does have some issues trying to pick-up larger debris, but a lot of this is toys you wouldn’t want to be trying pull or dig out later. It would be nice though in the dining area to be able to grab those larger crumbs at times. The battery seems to last for quite a while allowing me to get through the entire house and re-touch any areas that need extra attention where there’s high foot traffic from our kids; eating and play areas. This is in normal mode and switching between batteries after about an hour of use. Overall this is a good vacuum for everyday light cleaning that is easy to operate and easy to unclog and clean. An advantage to this is the free standing base for charging and storing the vacuum vice having to hang it on a wall. Plus having the option to store most attachments to the stand and not having to find a place with others to store the additional accessories. Just kept readily available what I would use daily and more often for those deeper cleanings. I did find during use that it did seem a little unbalanced at times in trying to keep it on track with where I was trying to get it go.
