Verdict

The Made in Italy RIBIMEX Cenetì (PRCEN009H) is a compact electric ash vacuum designed specifically for cleaning cold ashes from wood stoves, pellet stoves, fireplaces, and barbecues. It is equipped with an 800 W motor providing 17 kPa of suction pressure and a 30 L/sec airflow rate, drawing debris into a 15-liter lacquered steel canister. Key advantages include a lightweight 2.82 kg frame, an integrated carrying handle, and a removable, washable HEPA filter that effectively captures fine soot particles. It features an 85 cm flexible metal-lined hose combined with a 20 cm metal suction nozzle to reach tight corners safely. On the downside, some users note that the unit operates with considerable noise, the 1.5-meter power cord and suction hose are relatively short, and it struggles to vacuum larger leftover wood fragments over 2 cm.
