PrettyCare Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Review

I wanted a small, efficient vacuum for my apartment, so I tried the PrettyCare Cordless Vacuum. It looked like exactly the what I was thinking that I would like to get. It’s the right size, cordless, has multiple attachments, and, of course, isn’t too expensive. As you can imagine, it’s pretty dusty on the ground floor, no matter if you keep your place locked up tight. I’d had it with the broom and scoop. It wasn’t very effective anyway and didn’t help get the dust and so on setting beneath the sofa seat sections.

Ordering and Delivery

I bought the vacuum on Amazon, and even with a Prime account and a Prime shipment option displayed, it took seven days to be delivered to me here in Saskatchewan, Canada. I didn’t mind too much since living further north sees me waiting a few days more than I’m used to for deliveries from Amazon.

Design & User Experience

I got the navy blue vacuum. I believe they also had it in red. It’s beautiful and I love it. The vacuum is well-designed. It’s got a large enough handle to make maneuvering it easy. It’s also easy to assemble and disassemble. It allows cleaning and emptying to be a quick affair. It’s equally quick and easy to swap out the attachments when I need to. It works great for the baseboards, vents and sofa as well as the floor. It comes with a wall mount (which I haven’t used so I can’t tell you if it works) and an extra filter pad. The filter pads are sturdy and washable.

I thought the dust barrel to be small initially. It is listed as 1.2L. Since I’ve yet to fill it up even after several rounds of use before emptying it, I can’t in good conscience say that it is ‘small’ anymore. Additionally, I love that the battery percentage rage is displayed when it’s on and charging.

The PrettyCare Cordless Vacuum is easy to store. I can stash it away in a closet or corner fully assembled or pull it down. It makes it easy to store, which is great.

Usage Time

I made sure that the PrettyCare Cordless vacuum was charged up to 100% before I went on a vacuuming spree around my apartment. My apartment wasn’t super dirty, however, it’s a ground-floor unit and so dust is pretty much an everyday reality, even with doors and windows only occasionally open.

I vacuumed the floors of two bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom, an entryway, a hallway, kitchen space and the sofa. Since this review is being published two months after I started writing it, I can get one good vacuum session in my entire apartment, and then a series of kitchen and entryway touch-ups before charging again. I’d say it’s somewhere between 40 minutes to an hour of run time from the vacuum.

By the time it gets to 10%, you have about two minutes or so before it well and truly dies. I’d say it’s somewhere between an hour, an hour and a half of use time from the vacuum.

Charging time

The vacuum takes about three to four hours to fully charge up when the battery runs down completely.

What I Don’t Like About the Vaccum

The one thing I would change (I don’t know if I would really change it) is that the largest attachment with the rolling brush can get dust cause caught around it. It has a sort of lining that captures the dust and if you don’t clean it frequently, you can end up just pushing the dust around. However, it mostly traps dust. I typically clean it by just getting a damp/wet paper towel square. I give it a quick wipe to get the dust off and she is ready to roll again (literally).

It has two speeds and I never use the lower one. I do wish it had just a bit more power, but it’s not something that would make me reconsider buying it.

Cleaning and Maintenance

To clean the vacuum is pretty simple. The attachments are easily removed with a snap. To clean it, emplty the barrel and dry wipe it and the barrel down with a wet cleaning micro-fibre towel. The filters are washable. I knock them out and then hand-wash them. There are two of them, so you can use while the other dries.

Dry-wipe down the hose and barrel entrance. To clean the brish motor, remove the roller brush to remove hairs circled around it. Wash the brush or wipe it down, then wipe down the motor.

Final Thoughts on PrettyCare Cordless Vacuum

Overall, I love this thing. It’s light and makes it super easy to keep the floors clean and crumb-free without requiring too much muscle. It’s especially great for quick pass-overs in the bathroom since I shed hair like a pet. It is equally functional for crumbs in the kitchen from daily use and dirt that gets left behind in the entryway due to outside-shoes traffic.

Update: 1+ Year of Use

The suction has reduced significantly over one year of use, but it still gets the job done. To get similar use time as when it was brand new, I have to use the low-power setting. If I turn up the power, the suction is good, but it only lasts for five minutes or so (if that long).

Update: 2+ Years of Use

The suction power has declined considerably now. It still picks up lighter materials like dust, and debri over smooth surfaces, however, on a rug – even flat ones – it doesn’t do so great. It also requires cleaning more frequently to do that much.

The battery power is about five minutes on the lower setting with a fully charged battery. Which means in a room that really needs it, I have to hurry and can’t vacuum a second one. In total it’s about 20 seconds on the higher setting.

That said, after two years, I am looking for a new vacuum. I’m carefully reviewing before I buy the next one, since I don’t want to be shopping for a new vacuum two years.

Final Update: 3+ Years

The vacuum began sputtering after two years, and I went and got a new one since it was no longer able to vacuum after five minutes on the lowest setting, even though as it take hours to charge and is still on the decline even though it’s not being used regularly. We keep it around for backup use;however, it’s at the end of its useful life.
