18V LXT® Lithium-ion Compact Cordless Vacuum, Tool Only (XLC02ZB)

The 180/181/182 are basically the same, just different switch designs. It's fine for quick cleanups in the kitchen, but it's not that powerful. There's a cyclone attachment you can get for it that makes it work better and doesn't clog up the filter as fast, but it adds girth to the whole unit and it's pretty shit anyway because it's friction fit attachment. It doesn't attach too tightly so eventually it works itself loose and falls off while you're vacuuming. The low tech solution is to duct tape around the pipe so that it's a tighter fit. Don't need to tape both parts together. Pony up for the 280/282/284/286 brushless and you'll be much happier in the long run I only got my 180 from a Christmas sale deal last year because I didn't feel like spending too much money on it. I kind of regret that choice. Don't make that mistake I did

I tend to use an 18v makita stick/handheld vac.Decent suction,good for the car/skirtings,silly little kitchen spills,top of cabinets,spider webs!etc. But I have loads of their batteries,tools etc.So the bare tools aren't usually that expensive and usually good quality.

I tried the "New LXT" next to the XGT before buying. The XGT has a considerably less annoying sound profile... this is way more significant than it sounds, especially for wife/gf approval factor The LXT is kinda whiny and annoying sounding. According to your numbers, the XGT has 17% higher suction and 20% higher airflow. In practice I did find this extra power significant. u/trickster2, you say Dyson is better but I dont agree. (I DO have a Dyson v11), the power head fell apart after a year and if you are using it on high the battery lasts a pitiful \~6-8min then takes forever to charge. (and the battery & motor are unreliable POS, requried several replacements) With the Makita you can cycle batteries and clean continuously. In practice I have several batteries but only need to cycle 2 for vacuum use.

I have both Makita 12V and 18V vacuums. They are awesome, especially if you already own other Maktia cordless products.

Tatsächlich hier als Hauptgerät ein kabelgebundener Sauger (Hundehaare) und für fix was weg machen ein einfacher Makita Akku Sauger weil wir als Hausbesitzer mit Garten jede Menge Akkus haben dank diverser Geräte. Ist aber auch wirklich nur für mal ebenen fix geeignet.
