Tineco - A11 HERO

Shark Stratos or Tineco A11 Hero. They're both solid under $300. Avoid Bissell stick vacs, weak suction and bad battery life in my experience

Oof, classic Ryobi bait-and-switch. It is great for tools, terrible for vacs. If you’re looking for real performance under $500, start with LG CordZero, Tineco A11/A15 Hero, or a used Dyson V10/V11. If battery cross-compatibility isn’t a must, just get a vac that actually vacuums.

Habe seit ca 4 Jahren einen Tineco Hero A11, ist ziemlich OK für glatte Böden und tonnenweise Katzenhaare.

Yes, as it looks like you are referring to stick vacuums. I got a refurbished V8 about 12 years ago. The battery started to crap out after five years, so I got a Tineco. I moved the Dyson to my second floor for quick jobs and kept the Tineco on the main floor for daily work (between wood kitchen floor, rugs and carpeted living/dining room). Then I realized I could replace the V8 battery. It came back to life and I was reminded how well it worked. I had to replace the Tineco battery after one year and then when it was dying again the second year, I gave up on it and got a new Dyson V15. It is awesome and worth every expensive penny. I have a Sebo canister vacuum as a "deep clean", but I have been underwhelmed with it. My two Dyson sticks do a great job and I vacuum pretty much everyday. I spent $200 on the Tineco that lasted two years and I hated it. I spent $200 on my 12yo V8 and replaced the battery once. I spent $700 on my new V15 and plan to have it last just as long as my V8 (which is still going strong). (Oh, I also should mention I don't have pets, but I have long hair and so does my daughter. The V15 is noticeably great at staying unclogged with wrapped up hair.)

I had two Tineco’s and really liked them. Unfortunately, they both broke. I recently got a Riccar stick vacuum. I’m very impressed with the build and suction. It’s a bit heavier. The battery just pops out to recharge or you can recharge on its stand. It’s pricier than Tineco, $400, but I think it will last a lot longer.

Tineco in my experience is no better quality that shark.

I love my Tineco stick vac (higher rated than the Dyson by the NYT Wirecutter) and so does my son and DIL, to whom I gifted one. However, another son is ready to fight us over the supremacy (so he says) of his Dyson. So both are great.

Same. I adored my Dyson but it was useless when it came to dog hair (labrador). I too bought a very cumbersome, corded Bissell, but my goodness, the stuff it sucks up - AFTER using the Dyson - it's insane. I bought a Tineco stick vacuum to replace my Dyson (still have the Bissell), and it's a million times better than the Dyson.

Tineco! I freaking love mine for a stick vac

Porque no los dos? We have both, had to save up to buy separately and got a good discount on holiday deals. We have a shark robot vacuum (cheapest model bc we didn’t want to mess with programming) and a Tineco stick vacuum and we love both! We have a toddler, 2 cats, and a dog and our combo works great
