My ideal vaccim ever

Works much better than the Dyson cordless vacuum it replaces.

This vacuum has been super convenient to use in my 500ish square foot apartment. The battery isnt the most capacious ever, so I would want something different for a larger place. The suction is not astounding on my perfect rug but, again, the square footage Im dealing with doesnt make it a good consequence. I have two major pet peeves: 1. There is nothing in place to cut / deal with longer hairs, and the rollers get tangled pretty easily 2. I have to clean the filter more than I would like. I would say every 2 - 3 weeks, vacuuming 2 - 3 times a week. Performance-wise, though - great for small dwellings.

TL;DR: Bought on sale cyber monday, shouldve bought a spare battery then. Go ahead and get a spare battery for the deeper cleaning days! I can normally cover ~2800sq/ft (hard to guess tbh, not sure how big the downstairs is, but it does account for most of the house, and is mostly tile/hardwood) in 25ish minutes and be fine, but if Ive been lazy and the cats have been shedding, one battery wont quite make it (but itll be close). I really like this vacuum! Other things of note: If you run it wide open (max suction) the battery will last maybe 10 minutes. You do not need to do this however unless the situation calls for it. let it decide. You need to clean the dust filter often (This goes for many vacuums, not just this one), I normally do it after every full-downstairs vacuum because it comes with a spare, and itll normally be dry by the time I want to use it again. Takes about 1 minute total to clean, so theres no reason not to do this. Thats it. Its a great vacuum for what I wanted it for, light to medium duty frequent use so I dont have to bust out the plug-in dyson and drag that thing all over the place. For carpet heavy environments, you want something plug-in period, this is not a great main unit for a carpet heavy environment. For all hard floors it would be great. We have 3 cats and two small children, so theres always something that needs vacuuming and I wanted a reasonably powerful cordless vac to hit the proverbial high spots, and this more than meets those relatively low requirements. As stated above, I can usually cover the whole downstairs on a single charge, occasionally if theres excessive crud (because someone hasnt been running it regularly) I have to grab the second battery, or if were doing a more deep cleaning around the furniture and pulling stuff out from the wall, it comes in handy (think multiple canister dumpings and what not). Its very easy to break down and clean.. I probably shouldve read the instructions but nah. I have not clogged the dust filter to a point where the vacuum constantly runs in high vacuum mode (this is a complaint I read about from other users), and I keep it clean to avoid that situation. This is something one should do with their corded vacuums as well, as it greatly cuts down on the available power if neglected (and causes a higher instance of dust circulation rather than capture). The included tools are mostly helpful for the situations that require them, not much else to say there. I dont see the point of the dust filter cleaner attachment since youd just be clogging up the other filter, instead I wash them by hand in the sink by running water down the middle (backwards), and let em dry til the next use. easy peasy.

This is my first stick vacuum. Before this I had a Hoover Platinum Upright -- I call that the King of Vacuums. However, with the whole Covid, its in storage and we are temporarily living elsewhere in a good-sized apartment whose floors are about evenly split between laminate and low-pile carpet. I looked for a vacuum that would meet our needs, but maybe not overlap with the Hoover so when the two are united, both might have a place in our home. Good choice. This vacuum is terrific. Pros: - Capably handles both carpet and laminate with no problems. - Very maneuverable (much more so than my upright), which is handy as the edge cleaning isnt fantastic -- I can quickly shift to using the front of the vacuum where its better. - Very easy to shift between hand-held and stick. I found myself doing that last time I vacuumed -- quickly switching at the end to get some places in-between the furniture and the wall. - Power management -- this ramps up the speed when you are in areas where it finds more dirt. This sounded like a gimmick when I read about it, but in practice its seemless and very effective, and I appreciate it given it helps with the balance between battery duration, vacuum cleaner weight, and suction power. Clever and well implemented. - I can see the dirt. Ok- I never thought I would like this, but its actually very handy. Did that piece of cardboard I was uncertain about and vacuumed anyway make it up to the unit? Oh- there it is stuck around the brush, and oh there it just made it up to the hand-held portion. Will this handle that pistachio shell? Look, I can see it in the thing. This is really, really handy. Cons: - Light, but not light enough. I can very comfortably wield this at length, but Im a big guy. My wife, on the other hand, is more petite of maybe average height. I asked her if we might just use this at our new place and her response was that she likes it and will use it, but its too heavy to clean a house with. Somebody needs to figure out how to mount the battery nearer the floor to maybe shift the center of gravity- thats the winner. - The connectivity is gimmicky and not useful. I dont need a different app telling me its time to vacuum, or that I need to empty the thing, etc. I cant see this being useful for anyone. - The thing cant stand on its own. Youre vacuuming around -- oh, here, lets shift that chair. Oh- where do I prop this thing up awkwardly while I do that? - I wish there were a good option for not mounting. - Its kind of spendy, and Im now not convinced the Tango model was worth it. This thing is as expensive as my Hoover Platinum upright, and while I called that the King of Vacuums, its truly more like the Emperor. Anyway- bottom line is this: I like it and it meets our needs. The pros very much outweigh the cons in my situation, and the connectivity con is more like a feature nobody needs, where if I were to buy this again, Id simply choose a less-expensive model without it (if that exists). In our new home this will handle stairs, spot cleaning, and single-room cleaning. The rest goes to the Emperor.

This vacuum makes it easy to clean up the daily messes from my dogs and toddler. Battery life is alright depending on the amount of mess. For deep cleaning though its still best to have a decent corded vacuum around.

Like it’s easy to use, but not great on carpet…

This is a really nice stick vacuum. I got an extra battery but the battery life is really quite good as long as you dont use the max power mode too much. I really like the feature that shows how dirty an area is so you know where to put in the effort. We have a German Shepherd and Siberian Forest Cat and they are all-pro shedders. Tineco Pure does a great job keeping up with the hair. Using an attachment to clean one of the two provided filters is an ingenious way of thumping filters against the nearest trash can to dislodge dirt. Worth the money as long as it lasts a couple of years.

For reference I have a two bedroom apartment. The vacuum will last charge wise if I move quickly throughout the rooms. If I need to take my time to make sure I’m getting all the dirt and dust, it dies before I’m finished. I will also say, this doesnt pick up anything larger than a grain of rice. I dropped uncooked Israeli couscous and the vacuum would not pick it up as the standing vacuum. It did pick it up when changing to the handheld version. Hair does not get stuck in the roller, but it does get stuck in the wheels a bit. I love the emptying feature. You can use the lever and to get a good clean you can remove the peices from the middle of the lever to make sure all of the dust is out. I have a dog and a cat so this sucks up ALL of the hair and litter. I love it. Con: the battery just doesn’t last. Pros: cleans up pet hair no problem

** Long post ahead ** I have been using corded shark vacuums for the last 5 years. My most recent one broke so I decided to try out a cordless one since that seems to be the new big thing. I wasnt sure what brand to try and I knew I didnt want to spend $1,000 on a big name brand one. So I did my research and found Tineco. Videos and reviews were great and people seemed to rave about this brand of vacuum. I purchased it and it came in the mail early. I used it immediately (knowing the battery wasnt fully charged but I was excited). I wanted to return it almost instantly. I have a shorter area rug. Its not totally flat but its also not a shag carpet length. I couldnt even get the darn sweeper to move on the rug. I literally worked up a sweat just to make at least 2 vacuum lines. By that time the battery was dead (I jad it on Auto). I plugged it in and let it charge while we went out of town for the weekend. Came back and decided to try again. This time with a full battery I was able to at least move it (obviously it would move easier with less suction in certain areas). On my laminate floor it did ok picking up dog hair. Again I had it on Auto mode to conserve the battery. It did an ok job but definitely didnt get as much as my corded vacuum did. I had to pick up my pace to try and get as much of my house vacuumed before the battery ran out. I have a 1200 sqft house and to hit every spot it takes roughly 30-45 min to vacuum. I didnt even get 15min out of a fully charged battery. So my bedrooms, laundry area, and bathrooms did not get touched and I had to speed through the dining room. I may just pull out one of my older vacuums and use that just to feel satisfied that my house is properly swept. I will give it a couple more tries, but right now I just want to return it. So far it seems like an overhyped fad and a waste of money.
