Third-party reviews

What customers like about SEVERIN HV 7146

  • Excellent suction power on both of its speed settings
  • Highly effective motorized turbo brush for extracting pet hair and car seat debris
  • Versatile wet and dry functionality that easily absorbs minor liquid spills
  • Built-in LED lighting that enhances visibility in dark or narrow spots
  • Quiet operation compared to alternative handheld models
  • Generous selection of 4-in-1 accessories stored directly on the wall mount

What customers don't like about SEVERIN HV 7146

  • Slightly heavy and bulky for users looking for a compact handheld option
  • Battery life drops significantly down to 20 minutes when running on maximum power mode
  • The dust container's sealing rubber can be quite tight and difficult to open during the first few uses
  • Long 5-hour charging process required to achieve a full battery capacity

Verdict

The SEVERIN HV 7146 is a 120-watt 4-in-1 cordless wet-and-dry handheld vacuum powered by an 18.5V (2,000 mAh) lithium-ion battery that delivers 5.5 kPa (5.5 AW) of suction power across two operational modes. Key advantages include a lightweight 1.1 kg frame, integrated LED lighting, an H7 filter system, a motorized 2,500 rpm rotating turbo brush ideal for pet hair, and dual-capacity storage accommodating up to 650 ml of dry dust or 150 ml of liquid. Main pros feature its cordless mobility, versatile 4-in-1 accessory kit with a space-saving wall-mounted charging station, and an optimal runtime of up to 30 minutes in Eco mode (20 minutes in Power mode). Conversely, notable cons consist of a relatively low 5.5 AW suction rating, a lengthy 5-hour full recharge duration, and a loud 79 dB noise level during operation.
