Verdict

The Vacmaster VSD1801 Swivel-Stick is an 18V cordless 2-in-1 vacuum cleaner featuring a 120W motor and a 2200mAh Lithium-Ion battery that provides up to 30 minutes of runtime on a 5-hour full charge. Weighing just 5 lbs, its main characteristics include an integrated detachable handheld unit, a 0.6L bagless translucent dust cup, a 180-degree swivel head with LED headlights, and a foldable handle for compact storage. Key pros include its lightweight versatility on hardwood floors and carpets, a washable HEPA material filter that captures 99.7% of allergens down to 0.3 microns, two adjustable speed modes, and a convenient self-standing design. However, notable cons include its lengthy 5-hour charging time, a tendency for the filtration system to clog quickly requiring frequent manual cleanings, a relatively small dirt capacity, and a slightly cheap plastic build quality.
