Battery life is really unbelievable

published

Google says this has 40 mins running time but it is actually 7 mins on the description of this website.

I just bought this 2 days ago and it lasted 7 mins after fully charged first time. Can't even clean entire my room with this item. ( even Dyson V6 lasts 20 mins )

And I thought it would be okay if I have an extra battery and it costs $200 :(

Build Quality 4/5 for heavy weight (-1)
Ease of Use 1/5 for short running time



actually all the minus points except heavy weight are due to the short running time.

Purchased in March 2021 at Polyaire for $300.00.

Automatic stopped working

published

I used this vacuum for a while and been upset most of the time since it always stopped working automatically while i’m using it. It’s stopped eventhough the dustbin is not even half full and the battery is not enough for me to clean half of my house. I used Dyson before and missed it a lot

I love Samsung n i love my ProStick

published

Got this as a bday present from my other half; originally wanted a Dyson but have been extremely satisfied. Sleek, powerful suction. Mutiple attachments. Very satisfied. Different attachments for certain surfaces. If it switches on n off; just need to check the filter is clogged. Has high function for super suction but if u use that constantly time usage only lasts about 8mins which isnt very long.

Waste of money

published

The only thing I can use this vacuum cleaner for is to get some fluff off the carpet but it won't do hard vacuuming. It cloggs up and stops operating after a minute or so even on my carpet. Sleek Good Guys salesperson told me the good reviews they had and my mistake on not check this site. I just checked and the have discontinued this model, I wonder why. I fixed my 15 year old Wortheim vacuum cleaner by getting a new head @ $25.00 and vacuums 100 times better than the Samsung and I kissed my $600.00 goodbye.
I can't understand where these businesses get all the good reviews from? they obviously pay for them.

THUMBS DOWN!

This vacuum does not work and has been a complete waste of money

published

This vacuum never worked for us! Every time I have used this vacuum it is lucky to vacuum half a room ( thats the best I've managed) and the vacuum head blocks and unit stops working . I have cleaned the vacuum out many times and checked the head for anything caught and nothing works. Incredibly disappointing and a massive waste of money - I cannot fathom Samsung would charge so much for such a terrible product.. My husband purchased this without checking reviews first - If only we had looked we would have seen how poor this is! We had just bought Samsung washer and were looking at more Samsung products but this has really put me off as I cant understand how they released such a poorly performing product.

Purchased in November 2021 at Samsung Online store for $500.00.

Gets clogged up all the time

published

Bought the pro as it would supposedly be more efficient. It is extremely difficult to clean and gets clogged up all the time. Took it back to retailer as stopped working and was told I might be charged an inspection fee I send it back for repair. Can't believe I spent 600 dollars on this garbage. Instead of saving me work at home it gives me work to operate. Cleaning parts are very unfriendly and difficult to maneuver. Very unsatisfied customer

Clogged 24/7

published

Everytime I vacuum it just shuts down, I have to dismantle it and check because oh lord if there is hair in this vacuum it just doesnt work, literally everytime. I got it because I was too lazy to get out my barrel vacuum everyday, but now that is more convenient. I hate this vacuum. Bought from the Good Guys who said it was perfect for animal fur... it really isnt, it looks pretty thats about it. Will never buy another Samsung item again (well except for the phones). Shoulda gone with the Dyson V10.

Absolutely rubbish

published

Bought this in jb hifi around November 2018.
The turbo head gets clogged everytime we vacuum up hair. Then it stops spinning. It's been in for repair twice which takes 4 weeks at a time.
This keeps happening. This is 110% a massive design flaw.
It's near impossible to suck up all the hair then vacuum with the turbo head. It serves no purpose if I have to do that.

Good product

published

Bought this vac for using in my two story house on carpet and tiles. It comes with many accessories and is good to use as a backup vac. To vac the whole house with this just takes too long, have gone back to using the ducted system. The Samsung has good suction and is good for vacuuming the car. But I don't think it is good enough to be your only vacuum cleaner, great as a back up unit.

Doesn't compare to my Dyson Barrel vac

published

I have a small apartment and the Samsung struggles to vacumn a room without losing suction and needing to be emptied. I have found that the suction capacity is dramatically compromised and having recently fixed my Dyson, realised that the carpets have a lot of residual dirt still in them even after using the Samsung on a daily basis. For the money (I paid approx $800) I am pretty disappointed in the product given that the sales rep at JB HiFi gave it such a glowing review.
