Ryobi - 18V ONE+ HP HIGH-CAPACITY Stick Vacuum Kit (PBLSV718K)

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 personally liked the new [Ryobi 18v pet vacuum from bunnings](https://www.bunnings.co.nz/ryobi-18v-one-hp-bl-stick-vac-with-dual-roller-kit-r18xsv9pet142_p0372183), however it may not be for you. **pros:** \-quite affordable for a 2 battery kit compared to dyson \-good suction \-2 hepa filter included in the box, new filters sold at bunnings \-double roller (1 softroller + 1 brush) and mini powered roller included **cons:** \-no charging dock in NZ, however it comes with charger in the USA model \-no mechanism to easily push dirt out from the cannister \-little bit heavier than the dyson, especially with the battery on it \-no self cleaning dock either I know bunnings isn't usually a place for people to go to for house vacuums but if you own Ryobi tools or looking for different options this may one to consider? I also see Shark vacuums are similarly priced with a self cleaning dock as well, maybe have a look into those

Tbh Bunnings mostly have entry lvl brand for stick vacuums and plug in wet n dry vacs. Ryobi have been killing it in the last few years with their high performance (HP) lineup though which is why this one is pretty decent for the cost It’s really good value if you consider that it comes with 2 batteries and new ones are easily interchangeable and easy to replace then it’s a good option

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.

If you want to save a bit of money, we got this one [https://www.bunnings.co.nz/ryobi-18v-one-hp-brushless-stick-vacuum-4ah-kit\_p0657567](https://www.bunnings.co.nz/ryobi-18v-one-hp-brushless-stick-vacuum-4ah-kit_p0657567) and I would highly recommend it. You can also get a 2Ah version for cheaper again but we've found that with a 4Ah battery, this gives us enough power to vacuum a 4-bedroom house plus a little extra. It doesn't have the extra attachment but think that might be for upholstery (I may be wrong) but the standard one picks up pet hair super easy off our carpet.

I went with a Ryobi because I have a lot of Ryobi tools so I also have a lot of Ryobi batteries. I scored a machine on clearance for $100 and it’s honestly it’s pretty great. I have owned a Tineco that was gifted to me and that thing was hot garbage. If you have power tools, look to see what whatever platform(s) you are invested in already have to offer.

Love ours. Even upgraded to the whisper series. It’s nothing special in terms of a cordless vac, nothing to complain about either. What sets it apart is the fact that I have a dozen batteries ready to rock at any time.

Eh, it’s definitely quieter which is a plus for dogs or napping kids, but it’s not like I notice a major difference in power or anything. I’m no vacuum expert. We were happy with the original, but when part of our original broke, after some back and forth with Ryobi, they sent us the whisper model in its entirety, rather than just replace the broken part from our original, which we would have been happy with. So is it worth the upgrade? Probably not, to the average Joe like me, but it’s been nice for the QoL upgrades they made. Hope that helps!

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.

my ryobi pet stick vacuum it works great and its cordless

We got the ryobi pet stick a month or so ago and have really liked it- it does a good job getting dog hair off the couch, battery life seems ok for us( we already had a bunch of the batteries for other tools)

r/vaccuumcleaners might have some good tips, although in the past I asked a similar question there and a bunch of people were like “just make using the bagged vacuum easier!” Because a bagged and corded vacuum is, undeniably, the best quality and most long-lasting style of vacuum. But I’m with you, I needed a more convenient vacuum because the best quality vacuum suddenly plummets in effectiveness when you can’t bring yourself to use it. I ended up with a Ryobi 1+ pet stick vac. I tend to hyper focus when I do start vacuuming and sometimes I enjoy vacuuming for like a while, getting into all the nooks and crannies, so I wanted one with a long battery life. The Ryobi model I went for came with two decently long lasting batteries, and I feel like a vacuum by a tool brand MUST be pretty durable. It’s been a few months since I got it and so far so good

We have a Dyson V6 that we got on special YEARS ago, still working. The brush is a bit worn though so I have one coming from Aliexpress for not much $$. Keep an eye on specials. I'll replaced it at some point with a Ryobi as if you register it, you get 6 years warranty. Being a stick vac makes it about 10000% easier to be motivated to vacuum compared to a drag around vacuum. Granted the suction won't be as good, it's a worthwhile compromise IMO.

Ryobi One+ all the way. The included battery does the entire 3 bedroom house and if I really need it we have the extra batteries in the garage
