Ryobi - ONE+ HP 18V Cordless SWIFTClean Wet/Dry Stick Mop and Vacuum

Vac/Mops do not clean as well as having a separate vacuum and mop. They will clean better if you dry vacuum first and then use the vac/mop just to mop. I recommend avoiding any vac/mop that has a fixed battery. The battery is the most common issue and also degrades over time so any machine with a fixed battery is living on borrowed time before it's completely dead. Almost all vac/mops do not dry vacuum at all, they don't dry vacuum hard floors and they do not vacuum rugs. Only a few of the original corded Bissell Crosswaves can dry vacuum and refresh rugs, both functions are not very good and not a compelling reason to buy an original Crosswave. Steam is marginally useful. It's helpful for breaking down greasy stains but it's not strong enough to sanitize and you do not want to use steam on biological stains because it can bake/set them. Steam requires a lot of electricity so the cordless vac/mops with steam are very expensive. I think you vacuum much more often than you mop so getting a good corded or cordless vacuum is a must. The classic O'Cedar Spin Mop is really hard to beat in terms of easy to use and effective. Cleanup is emptying the bucket and machine washing the mop pads. I also just learned you can mop your walls and cabinets, how's that for versatile? If you want a vac/mop I recommend going with a corded model or a model with removable and replaceable batteries. The Bissell CrossWave Hydrosteam $269 is reasonably priced, it can use cleaning solution or steam. The Hoover Streamline Corded $138 and RYOBI ONE+ HP 18V Cordless SWIFTClean Wet/Dry Stick Mop and Vacuum $379 are also good options without steam. You will get better results if you dry vacuum first. Alos lookup the cleanup required after each use because if you don't wash and dry everything it will mold and smell bad.

Most of the vac/mop combos only clean hard floors in a wet mode. Only the original Bissell Crosswaves have a dry vacuuming mode for hard floors and a wet refresh mode for rugs and it isn't very good. None of the popular vac/mops will vacuum or wet clean rugs. You need a good corded or cordless vacuum to dry vacuum rugs. Batteries are the most common failure and wear point on cordless vacuums and vac/mops so I only recommend models with removable and replaceable batteries. Owners are reporting battery failures across all models in as little as 6-12 months. Good batteries should last 2-5 years. So I don't recommend any cordless Tinecos because they all have fixed batteries. Currently, I recommend the corded Bissell Crosswave Edge/EdgeFind, corded Bissell Crosswave Hydrosteam, corded Hoover Streamline, and cordless Ryobi ONE+ HP 18V Cordless SWIFTClean Wet/Dry Stick Mop and Vacuum. Since you have wood floors I'd avoid the Crosswave Hydrosteam and any steam mops as excessive heat can damage wood. Please be warned vac/mops must be washed and dried after every use or they'll grow mold and odors very quickly. I hope that helps.

There are vac/mops that vacuum while you mop like the Bissell Crosswave and Tineco iFloor combos. These mostly only mop and cannot dry vacuum floors, carpets, or do anything above the floor. Among the cordless vac/mops I only recommend machines with removable and replaceable batteries because the battery is such a common failure and wear item. The Hoover Onepwr Streamline and Ryobi Swift Clean are the only vac/mops that are decent and have removable batteries. The Dyson V9 with the Submarine mop attachment is a dry cordless stick vacuum good for all around vacuuming with a mop attachment. The mop attachment mops but doesn’t vacuum at the same time so you need to dry vacuum first and then mop. Vac/mops require a lot of cleanup after each use. Dyson’s submarine also is quite messy and requires a lot of cleanup after each use. Personally I would choose a decent cordless stick vacuum like a Dyson V8 or a LG CordZero and get a good manual mop like a O’Cedar Spin Mop or a good reusable spray mop. Both mop better than the Submarine and are less cleanup than a vacuum/mop. There are lots of choices. Hope that helps.

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.

If you’re searching for a reliable, heavy-duty cordless stick vacuum that actually pulls hair out of carpet and still performs great on hard floors, I highly recommend the Ryobi HP 18V Stick Vacuum. We use these for both residential and commercial cleaning, and for a cordless option, they’ve been outstanding. The battery life is excellent when paired with 6–8Ah lithium batteries, and Ryobi even offers 12Ah batteries if you need extended runtime. One huge advantage is the Ryobi ecosystem. They have a portable rapid charger that can hold up to 6 batteries, which is a game-changer if you’re cleaning large areas and don’t want downtime. Strong suction, great hair pickup, and real durability — wayyyyy better than any other cordless competitor we’ve tested. If you want power, flexibility, and reliability without dealing with cords, this is the move.

It has great dust filtration, its not hepa filters but they do have great replacement disc filters that can be replaced for a couple of dollars.

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.

They’re great till they break! No parts available. I have a pile of 5 of them that are headed for the dustbin!

No silly rabbit, because there’s no parts and they were under warranty they sent me new ones. Which in turn broke.

I am nutty, but still. Like I said they’re really great vacuums till they break. At the time you couldn’t even get brush rollers and mine had plastic bearings that would melt and fuse with the housing.

Vacuums well but has two weaknesses - 1) It is heavy, so you end up having to switch hands periodically while vacuuming. 2) the canister doesn’t empty fully so you need to use a bottle brush to pull out hair that gets stuck inside. Pluses - the vacuum light is wonderful and lasts a decent amount of time on a battery.

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:(

Nejlepší poměr cena výkon je za mě v tomhle Ryobi, vysává fakt dobře a vydrží. Navíc se ta baterka dá přenášet mezi dalšími nástroji.

I think you should be able to buy an extra battery for most of the name brand stick vacs. I’ve had stick vacs that died after 10-15 minutes and ones that are more like 20-30. I also have an old Ryobi stick vac and something like 10 batteries (acquired for other tools). Sadly, that’s my least preferred and mostly relegated to the garage.

Same here! I had a similar experience with Dyson, felt like I was paying for the name more than performance. I switched over to a Ryobi stick vac too since I already had their power tools and extra batteries, and it’s been so much more convenient. Being able to swap out batteries instead of waiting for a recharge is a total game changer. 

Totally get what you mean about Dyson being the Apple of vacuums, super sleek, but not always worth the price tag. The whole closed ecosystem, expensive accessories, and all that kinda turned me off after a while too. With Ryobi, I love that I can just use the same batteries for basically everything in the garage! 

Oh wow, I had no idea Ryobi’s parent company owns Hoover! That totally makes sense now with how the battery platforms are kinda converging. I’m all for it, honestly, being able to use the same batteries across a bunch of tools and my vacuum just makes life so much easier. I never understood why Dyson stuck with the “sealed unit” concept when battery tech has gotten so good.
