Verdict

The Rowenta Air Force Light RH6543 is a lightweight 2.3 kg cordless stick vacuum cleaner powered by a 14.4V lithium-ion battery that delivers a maximum runtime of 30 minutes on its minimum setting. It features a bagless design with a 0.65-litre dust capacity, a cyclonic separation system for consistent airflow, a foam filter, and a rectangular POWER LIGHT suction head equipped with integrated LEDs for enhanced visibility. Main advantages include its ultra-lightweight build, excellent maneuverability, a standalone parking position for easy storage, and 2 adjustable power speeds. However, notable drawbacks include a relatively long recharging time of 4 to 5 hours, a high operating noise level of 80 dB, and lack of a handheld conversion option.
