Verdict

The SAMBA 9287 (Newlux) is a 2-in-1 corded electric upright and handheld stick vacuum cleaner featuring an 800W motor, a 0.5-litre bagless dust capacity, and an energy efficiency rating of A+. Operating at an AC voltage of 220-240V with a 5.5-metre cable length, it delivers a suction power of ≥70W (≥13kPa) while maintaining a noise level under 80dB. Key pros include its ultra-lightweight 1.7kg build, freestanding parking system, and a triple filtration setup (HEPA, micro-perforated, and motor-protect filters) that captures fine allergens. However, its small 0.5L tank capacity requires frequent emptying, and the corded design restricts mobility compared to battery-powered alternatives.
