5 Best Cordless Vacuum Cleaners in Singapore [2022] 

In the market for vacuum cleaners, there are the canister vacuum cleaners, and the stick (cordless) vacuum cleaners. 

Canister ones come in two parts, the stick part that sucks up dust and debris, and the ‘motor and dustbag’ which you drag with you around the home when you are vacuuming your home. With each room that you enter, you have to first plug it into a power socket, maneuver and park it in the right spot before you can begin to vacuum. While it arguably has greater suction power than a stick vacuum cleaner, canister vacuums will eventually add to your fatigue with all that repeated bending and plugging, and maneuvering. 

In contrast, cordless vacuum cleaners are lightweight and convenient, as you only need to charge before using. No annoying cables, motors and dustbags to plug and unplug as you move from room to room, nor bulky canisters to drag around with you. 

To help find one with the right suction power and vacuuming attachments that suits your household cleaning needs, we have listed 5 popular (and good) cordless vacuum cleaners that you can buy in Singapore. 

1. Xiaomi Vacuum Cleaner – Roidmi F8 Cordless

• 18500Pa Suction  
• 115W suction power
• 1.5KG 
• 75dB(A)
• 55min max battery life 
• 2.5 hours charge time 

The Xiaomi Roidmi F8 has previously won the iF Product Design Award as well as a Red Dot Design Award in 2018. 

Not surprising considering its attractive minimalist design that stands out from competing cordless vacuum cleaners. The F8 even comes with a simple magnetic white wall mount. If you have a white wall, it would be almost unnoticeable. 

Its suction power of 18.5 Kpa ranks as one of the highest amongst the Chinese cordless vacuum models. Users also liked that they can customise the power setting. At its lowest power setting (80 W), the F8 has a cleaning time of 55 minutes.  That’s impressive for a cordless vacuum model. 

The F8 also has a LED light that illuminates the ground so you can see where you’re cleaning. 

The F8 doesn’t use a trigger button where you have to press and hold. Instead it comes with a traditional power button that you just need to switch on and off as and when you need it. 

Users mentioned that for this bagless model, when it comes time to empty the dust cup, it can be a bit of a hassle as unlike a bag, this model needs you to actually pick ou any remnant dust or hair that might still be caught in the cup AFTER you have already emptied whatever you can. If handling dust and dirt is not your thing, you may like to look for another model where the dust cup contents are emptied with just the push of a button.
