Verdict

The Rowenta X-Force Flex 12.60 Neo Complete is a cordless stick vacuum featuring a 320W motor that delivers up to 150 Air Watts of suction power alongside an intelligent floor-detection system that automatically adjusts settings across hard floors and carpets. Its main advantages include a signature flexible tube design for effortless cleaning under low furniture without bending, a real-time digital control display tracking 4 power levels, 99.9% filtration, an integrated Aerospin Aqua head for simultaneous mopping and vacuuming, and a generous 0.9-litre washable dustbin combined with a removable battery providing up to 60 minutes of runtime in Eco mode. However, notable drawbacks include a significantly reduced battery life of under 10 minutes when operating on maximum Boost mode, a somewhat heavy handheld weight of 1.8 kg that can cause arm fatigue during prolonged overhead use, and an inability to stand upright on its own.
