Verdict

The Akitas 800W is a lightweight (2.5 kg to 4.2 kg) corded bagless cylinder vacuum cleaner powered by an 800-watt motor that generates a strong 19 kPa of suction power. Key characteristics include a 2.5-liter one-touch release dust bin, a true multi-cyclone filtration system with an H13-grade HEPA filter, a 76 dB noise level, an automatic cord rewind, and a 5-meter to 5.5-meter power cord giving an overall reach of 8 to 9 meters. Its main advantages are the award-winning German Wessel-Werk patented 2-in-1 floor head (RD264+) that boosts suction efficiency by 30% on hard floors and carpets, specialized pet turbo tools for effective animal hair pickup, and a highly maneuverable, compact design that is budget-friendly. However, notable drawbacks include a lack of adjustable suction power control on the body—making it difficult to vacuum delicate surfaces like curtains or light rugs—reports of the brush head aggressively scraping some flooring, and a non-removable or difficult-to-clean internal filter system.
