Verdict

The Rowenta RH7L75 X-Force Flex 9.80 Animal Care is a cordless stick vacuum featuring a 100 Air Watt suction motor, an ultra-lightweight design weighing just 1.2 kg in handheld mode, and a signature flexible tube that bends to easily clean under low furniture. Main advantages include its intelligent Smart Control Display, automatic suction power adjustment based on floor type, an integrated LED-lighted multi-floor brush, an impressive battery runtime of up to 1 hour and 20 minutes in Eco mode, and a specialized animal turbo brush kit optimized for pet hair removal. However, a major drawback is that the unit lacks a telescopic rod to adjust its overall height, and it cannot stand vertically on its own without a supporting wall or docking station.
