Ryobi - 18V ONE+ HP Cordless Pet Stick Vac Kit

I have a similar designed upright vacuum like the bissell, but it is cordless and it did not have the best filtration. I ended up getting a [Ryobi 18v](https://www.bunnings.co.nz/ryobi-18v-one-hp-stick-vacuum-tool-only_p0657566) one as I can just swap the battery (but not integrated dock for charging). I have a Hoover Allergy 7011PH for deeper cleaning but sometimes, its great but I can't be arsed dragging the cord around.

i have the Ryobi and its been really good, especially the one with the dual roller (soft roller brush + traditional roller brush). It got me to buy more ryobi products and surprised with how good their HP lineup is these days..

I have the 717 model and really like it. We use on area rugs, wood floors, carpet and tile. It does a great job with dust, dirt, dog hair, Christmas tree needles, etc. but doesn't like ornament hooks. Like the flexibility of removing the extension bar for the stairs. Cleaned the HVAC ceiling intake vents before Christmas, easier than it's ever been. Looking at adding the small beater bar for the furniture now. Appreciate that the beater bar is mechanically driven rather than suction driven. Like the various modes (beater bar on/off and high/low suction). Highly recommend, it's meeting all our needs.

my ryobi pet stick vacuum it works great and its cordless

I have a pet stick vac and upgraded to this one then returned it and got another pet stick vac. the "whisper" is only quieter because it runs at less power. at full power it makes about as much noise as the regular vac. the dual rollers are heavier and harder to maneuver than the single roller however it does a slightly better job of cleaning bare floors. overall the for me the price increase isn't worth it over the pet stick vac. I have both the dual roller and single brushless pet stick vacs and almost always go for the convenience of the single roller, it's just so quick, light and easy to maneuver which is kind of the point of these.

The ryobi dual roller is great. If you already have a bunch of ryobi 18v batteries then I would recommend. Pricey tough at $600. the cheaper ryobi models are apparently not so great.

I question how fixable these Ryobi Stick Vacs are - there are very few teardown videos (mostly older models) and aftermarket spare parts, unlike DeWalt but DeWalt doesn't make home vacs (they make shop vacs, which I have the DCV501LN which is excellent). Family has the R18XSV9 Pet Stick vacuum with the R18XSV3-FH3 beater bar/motorised head unit. After about (less) than 2 years, the head's hose tore from repeated flexing. Pretty poor quality hose really. Couldn't tape it as the Y shaped plastic encasing made it inaccessible. Even worse, there is no official replacement for the hose, and Ryobi claims the head is a consumable (which is why there are no spare parts for it apart from the rotating brushes). A new replacement head is 1/4 the price of the vacuum, which is really stupid when one of the cheapest parts of the head is prone to early failure, leaving the head unusable. I quite like the replaceable batteries, but I wouldn't quite recommend them to anyone. Perhaps I'd change my mind if more fix-it videos come about or Ryobi starts providing more spare parts and instructions to replace parts. I am glad that when I was shopping for a shop vac, I did not go for the RHV18X and went with the DCV501LN instead.

Ryobi has one with TWO roller bars in the powerhead. It works better than any other battery powered vacuum I’ve tried. Batteries are easy to swap out when needed. Only downside is it’s too strong so if there’s a sock an inch or two away from the head it will suck it up

I have lots of hardwood floors and some area rugs but I use the Ryobi double roller sick vacuum and it is awesome 

I’m switching from Ryobi to another brand after having several tools break over the last year. That being said, I just purchased another Ryobi stick vac to replace our Dyson in our home. Out of anything they produce right now- they got this one right.

Still have issues with small pieces breaking in the joints where you can remove the stick/extension. Once those break, it becomes loose and has small air leaks:(

I have a Ryobi cordless pet hair vacuum that works great. It’s probably on sale at Home Depot or direct tools outlet right now.
