Tineco A11 Hero Cordless Lightweight Stick Vacuum Cleaner, 450W Motor for Ultra Powerful Suction Handheld Vac for Carpet, Hard Floor & Pet

but now I love it!!! When I received my Tineco A11 Hero vacuum, it was so lightweight I wasnt sure it was going to do the job. I live with three large dogs, and we are always going on adventures to the woods, lakes, and streams, and consequently, our cabin becomes the house of hair and dirt. Over the years we have acquired and used numerous vacuums of all types, but I have always preferred the lighter-weight ones for cleaning. Our cabin is just under 1100 square feet and includes a set of 13 stairs where we come in from the outside, so every time I clean I have to clean those stairs and my corded vacuum does not completely reach the whole way. The floors are laminate, with many different sizes and thickness of rugs throughout. This Tineco Hero takes care of the whole cabin with power to spare! I use the lowest setting for the laminate floors, and only occasionally need to up the power for the thickest rugs. My favorite things about this vacuum are the lightweight( it doesnt scare the dogs while Im cleaning), the LED headlights (I can really see all the dirt and hair), and the battery life (I can vacuum the whole cabin and still have power to burn). Of course, since it is a cordless stick-type vacuum I can go anywhere with it and get under all the beds and the couch easily. Because it is so lightweight and easy to use (and quiet), I tend to vacuum nearly every day when Im at the cabin, which cuts down on the need for those all-day cleaning sessions. I havent owned this vacuum long enough to see how it is going to hold up in the long run, but for now I love it and highly recommend it. Tineco has its own website and communicates frequently through email, so I feel like if I need it, product support will be there.

This vacuum was fine, had it for a year and it worked okay but not nearly as well as our old corded vacuum - maybe thats not a fair comparison? We have a few larger higher pile area rugs and it just never seemed like it got them that clean and also tended to push things around on the hardwood but for the price and for a wand vacuum seemed like a fair compromise. After having it a year it suddenly lost suction so now we need a new vacuum - warranty claim process looks cumbersome, would like a replacement.

I got this to replace a Dustbuster for the kitchen. I didnt want to spend Shark money but wanted the features. I was a little concerned at first, mixed reviews and all. So far, I have been really happy with this vacuum. Easy to use. I wish there was a flatter attachment, like a Dustbuster sucker for it, the sideways one works but I think it would be better if it was flat. **UPDATE** So the vacuum totally came with the attachment I needed. I just hadnt used it yet, just found it today. ** Its been great for the stairs. Really happy about that attachment. I even use it for light vacuuming between heavy vacuum cleaning in the living room. I dont have a good place to put it yet, for attaching it to the wall so that is annoying when it comes to recharge it. And hitting the button 2x to get to the real good suctioning is annoying because lets be honest, who is using those 2 other settings?! It does take a second to kick on when you hit the trigger, this is not that bad, but confusing the first few times. And my kids can use it, not as easily as the Dustbuster but they will learn.

The vacuum is very lightweight and easy to move around the whole house, stairs are super easy and no lugging around a tank and getting tangled up in the cord. Works great with dog hair & kid “stuff”. Depending on your home you may need to empty the canister after each room but it’s kind of fun to see how much you’re cleaning up! Definitely recommend, wish we hadn’t waited so long to get it!

This is my first cordless vacuum, so I was interested in finding one that could do the job for as little money as possible, knowing I wouldnt get a top-of-the-line model. I think I did well with my purchase - I am LOVING the quick grab-and-go freedom of a cordless vacuum, and how easy it is to empty and change between the various tools. I vacuum every day now instead of whenever I can muster the energy to drag out my heavy corded vacuum. All that said, the suction on this isnt as good as Id want in something Id be using longterm. I have to run it over rug areas multiple times to get everything up, which isnt great, but considering how light and easy to use this is, Im not too mad about it. It does much better on hardwood than rugs.

I love my wife. I hated to see her with that crappy little vacuum that she uses. You know, the one that looks like someone rammed a stick through a Dustbuster? It didnt pick up very much, made a lot of noise and didnt seem that robust. Weve already been through a few of them. Ive also had to add a couple of electrical outlets to our home in order for her to use that joke vacuum, and she was already making noise about needing another one somewhere. So.... I did some research, and bought this as a Tyson alternative. It was delivered promptly, dangerously close to my wifes birthday (I know what youre thinking, and no way, just no way was that going to be a birthday present.) I put it together and gave it to Wifey, who seemed pleased at the suction power, the fact that she could vary it (But why? she asked), the lack of a cord and that the light on the power head that showed it didnt miss much dirt (mostly Yorkie bits, carried in from outside in her floor-length coat). About fifteen minutes later, the battery had died. At that point, we determined that the battery would last much longer if we reserved the max suction setting for those few areas in the house where we have rugs. The low setting worked just fine on the tile floors throughout our home. Armed with this information, the next time was a bit more successful, but there was still not battery power to get all the floors in the house done. The wall-hanger for this vacuum is great. There is a spot on top to charge a second battery. Armed with this information, we bought one. Now, between the moderation of suction power and the second battery, our floors get cleaned without any problems. The vacuum is easy to empty. Theres a filter that will need cleaning inside the dust bin. Its easy to remove, and Tineco provides an attachment that sucks the dirt from the filter. The manufacturer gives you two filters, so you can one in the vac while youre using the vac to clean the other filter. If you go to the website, theyll give you yet another filter just for registering your purchase.

This was my first cordless stick vacuum and I did my research. I was changing from a new Dyson Ball to a stick because I have a lot of stairs and the Dyson was like a heavy ball and chain with a short cord. When the Hero box came, it was a nice presentation. The roller is a standard size, which is nice and it also has a small roller for furniture, etc. It is lighter than I thought it would be which makes taking it up and down stairs a delight and for getting in all the nooks and crannies. It goes under furniture better than the Dyson. I did a comparison to the Dyson which has reputed superior suction and the Hero was only very slightly less powerful. However, this stick seems to collect more dust and smaller particles than the Dyson. So, the Hero is light, priced better than many others, very easy to use, no cord, deceivingly quiet and works extremely well on the carpets, tile floors and furniture in my house. The battery life has not been an issue and I have not run out of juice yet. I have a dog so fur is my greatest nemesis, but this Hero sucks it all up. I even used it to clean my car floors with the wand attachment. And it hangs easily on its charger. I am very very happy I got this vacuum and will be getting another for my other place. Id say its fantastic for the price, but even if it were more expensive Id say the same thing.

The vacuum is easy to use . Not heavy or too loud. I love the fact that it lights up on the floor with an LED light and you can see the dirt the dust you may have missed. I would love for them to have each attachment have a light, because sometimes you have to get into those tight corners behind furniture a light would help!

We used our vacuum for the first time yesterday, and I was quite surprised about the amount of sand that was pulled out of our garage carpet runner. The rug always looked clean, but when this vacuum was turned on the high speed mode, it had so much suction that I had to push rather hard to get it to move. We bought a battery operated vacuum several years ago and bought one we could afford. I do not like paying $230 for a battery operated vacuum but it is many time more powerful than the cheap one. We were going to buy the $500 Lupe vacuum because it is so powerful, but it did not have headlights. So we purchased this one, our second choice. The headlights are very bright and the suction is amazing. Would I recommend it? Absolutely yes!!

I was so tired of dragging around my old vacuum with an extra long cord that caught on every piece of furniture I got close to! I took a long time to decide on a cordless vacuum. It had to have powerful suction, a long-lasting battery and be light enough for me to carry easily. And it couldnt break the bank. And it had to deal with the debris left by 5 cats! I found the Tineco A11 Hero after hours of reading reviews. I am so pleased! I wish I had purchased it sooner. It met all of my requirements: 1. It has 3 levels of suction. So when Im just vacuuming up cat litter, cat fur, and pieces of cat scratch pads, I use level 1. Its fine for that. 2. When I want more suction for cat food, I use level 2 or if Im vacuuming cat fur, etc. off a rug. 3. I rarely use level 3. 4. Ive only run the battery out once. Keep in mind, I dont do my whole house in one day, but I use the vac as I need it for spot cleaning. I can do the family room, dining room, kitchen, cat room (yes, I have one) and not run down the battery. For the master bedroom and bath, never a problem. For the guest bedroom and bath, no problem. For the library/sitting room and office (my house sounds big - it isnt - about 1800 sq ft). no problem. 5. Its light and easy to handle. True, I have to push it over the debris to get it to pick it up (it wont pick up in reverse), but Ive gotten used to going forward when I use it. The swivel feature is the bomb! I can get under almost any furniture or around any chair leg. Although my cats still run from it, it doesnt make anywhere near as much noise as the other vacs I have. The only drawback is the waste container. I wish it were larger. I collect so much cat fur that it fills up quickly and then I have to empty it - again and again and again. For the price, it cant be beat. The quality is excellent (I had never heard of Tineco).
