Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about GRUNDIG VCP 9131

  • Convenient 2-in-1 design transitioning easily between a stick and handheld vacuum.
  • Actiflex technology features a bendable tube making it effortless to clean under furniture.
  • Integrated LED lights on the nozzle provide great visibility in dark spots.
  • Large 900 ml dust bin capacity reducing the frequency of emptying.
  • Removable and replaceable battery allowing for up to 60 minutes of runtime.
  • Auto Floor Detection system adjusts suction power dynamically based on the surface type.

What we don't like about GRUNDIG VCP 9131

  • Overall suction performance can feel weak or mediocre on certain surfaces like deep carpets.
  • Small wheels on the main floor brush clog quickly with hair and debris and are difficult to clean.
  • Dustbin latches and plastic parts are prone to breaking or cracking under regular use.
  • Long battery recharge cycle taking up to 5-6 hours for a complete charge.
  • Device has a tendency to overheat quickly and shut off unexpectedly during longer sessions.

Verdict

The Grundig VCP 9131 is a 2-in-1 cordless stick and handheld vacuum cleaner powered by a 550W BLDC motor that delivers 210W of suction power across three adjustable power levels. It is equipped with a 28.8V Li-ion battery providing up to 60 minutes of runtime, a generous 900 ml dustbin, an EPA E12 filter, and a flexible Actiflex bendable tube with a 5-LED smart floor nozzle that features Auto Floor Detection technology. Key pros include its versatile cordless maneuverability, generous real-time LCD information display, excellent attachment bundle, and automatic suction adaptation to different floor types. However, its notable cons include a long battery charging time of 4 to 5 hours, a relatively heavy operational weight of 3.3 kg, and a loud peak noise level of 83 decibels during turbo mode.
