What we like about Lavor RUDY 1200 S

  • High suction power for effective dust and liquid removal
  • Excellent value for money and affordable pricing
  • Large 20-litre durable steel collection tank
  • Versatile built-in blowing function for clearing leaves and light debris
  • Lightweight yet sturdy design that is easy to move around
  • Pneumatic filter shaker mechanism for easy cleaning without opening the bin
  • Silent motor design compared to standard industrial vacuums

What we don't like about Lavor RUDY 1200 S

  • Short 1.5-meter suction hose limits extended reach
  • Standard floor brush or attachments feel basic and plastic-heavy
  • Short power cable requires frequent use of extension cords
  • Relatively high noise level during heavy-duty operation despite the silenced motor claim
  • Can be bulky to store in small households

Verdict

The Lavor Rudy 1200 S is a compact wet and dry drum vacuum with a 1,200 W motor, 18 kPa suction, 35 L/s airflow and a 20 L steel tank. A blower function and four swivel wheels support home and hobby use, while the fabric and foam filters cover dry dust and liquids. It offers good value and weighs just 5.4 kg, but runs at about 79 dB(A) and has no integrated power-tool socket.
