12 Best Handheld Vacuum Cleaners in Malaysia 2023 - Review

The best.

Overview

Beautifully built with an ergonomic handle, the Dibea D18 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner easily removes dust and particles from furniture surfaces, beds, car carpets, and tile floors. It can be placed almost horizontally to the ground, allowing it to flexibly clean the difficult-to-reach area under most furniture. 

Its multistage filtering system absorbs all debris with its high-precision cotton filter. The particles then go through the cyclone separation system that separates dust from the other particles. Lastly, the stainless-steel metal filter collects larger pieces of particles. 

Other interesting features include the LED lights firmly placed on the main tube that provide a better view of the floor and particles while you are vacuuming. Additionally, the indicator power lights in bars easily show you the battery percentage so that you'll know when it needs to be charged. 

Details

- Rechargeable battery with ergonomic design handle

- 2-speed control for effective cleaning

- Wide floor brush with LED lighting lights

- Stainless steel mesh with fine filtering function

- Replaceable roller brush design

Performance

Overall, the Dibea D18 is somewhat similar to the Dibea F20 Max, but with weaker suction power. Do note that, in addition to being less suitable for carpeted floors, the D18 has been critiqued as having less-than-optimal battery life. Nonetheless, its performance is satisfactory at this price point. 

• Power: 120W
• Weight: 2kg
• Capacity: 0.5L
• Run Time: 45 minutes
• Input Voltage: 22.2V
• Suction Power: 9000Pa

A lightweight vacuum makes cleaning easier as you won't have trouble lugging it around.

Overview

Say goodbye to blind spots in cleaning, because the Airbot iRoom CV100 Vacuum Cleaner has a slim and flat design that easily cleans corners. It helps that the vacuum also comes equipped with smooth wheels for ease of manoeuvring.  

In addition to its slim design, the Airbot is almost feather-light; weighing just 1.9kg. 

One interesting feature is that the Airbot has double-sided exhaust valves that cool the equipment easily, ensuring heat dissipation and preserving efficiency. This feature ensures that there’s no need to worry about the vacuum cleaner heating up excessively.

Details

- Grip handle design that is optimized for ladies

- Noise-cancelling features

- LED light bar for easier monitoring

- Best for cleaning sofas, mattresses, curtains, keyboards, cupboards

Performance

The Airbot is frequently praised for being light, versatile and easy to manoeuvre. On the downside, the battery isn't very long-lasting and its suction is rather weak. With that said, the Airbot is best for light usage only.

• Noise: 50-60dB
• Power: 150W
• Weight: 1.6kg
• Capacity: 0.6L
• Run Time: Lowspeed: 30-45 minutes; High speed: 10-15 minutes
• Suction Power: 19000Pa

A great investment for your home.

Overview

What makes the Tineco S12 Ex Smart Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner so fascinating is its iLoop smart sensor technology that senses dirt in real-time and automatically adjusts suction power according to the varying dirt amount.

Because of its smart battery management system, the Tineco has an impressive runtime of up to 100 minutes whereas most vacuum cleaners have a runtime of only 45 minutes.

The vacuum cleaner can even be integrated with a mobile app to receive real-time updates, set cleaning reminders, and keep track of your cleaning reports. Up to 99.97% of particles are captured with its stringent 4-stage filtration system, consisting of a HEPA filter that expels non-allergenic fresh air, a pre-filter that blocks fine dust, and a mesh filter that blocks hairs and dust, and finally a cyclone system that separates large particles.

Details

- iLoop Smart Sensor Technology

- 6 times more powerful suction than ordinary cordless vacuum

- Soft roller power brush effectively deep cleans low pile carpets & hard floors

- Mini power brush easily grabs pet hair from upholstery and bedding

Performance

Users are impressed with its superior battery life, premium material, and top-notch smart technology. However, because of its weight, the vacuum cleaner is rather difficult to manoeuvre, especially in tight spaces like in-between chair legs.

• Power: 500W
• Weight: 3kg
• Capacity: 0.6L
• Airwatts: 145 Airwatts
• Run Time: 100 minutes
• Suction Power: 26000Pa

Here's a value-for-money recommendation. 

Overview

This is only possible because of its Germicidal UV Light Technology which can kill up to 99.9% of bacteria. UV lights are scientifically proven to kill bacteria by emitting radiation, thereby causing critical damage to the bacteria’s DNA.

Therefore, the vacuum cleaner is perfect for cleaning fabric surfaces on sofas, curtains, and mattresses; home to a myriad of harmful bacteria. 

This handheld vacuum has a long stick body that makes it ideal for cleaning floors. Its desktop vacuum feature allows for easy cleaning of tabletops, cabinets, and wardrobe interiors.

Overview:

A powerful 3-in-1 cleaning tool, the Dyson Digital Slim™ is a stick vacuum that can be transformed into a handheld one, allowing you to complete various cleaning tasks with just one device. Its versatility makes it a good investment in the long run. 

Weighing 1.9kg, it’s 30% lighter than the Dyson V11™. Its Slim Fluffy™ cleaner head can capture large debris with soft woven nylon, and sweep fine particles from hard floors thanks to the black anti-static carbon fire filaments. In addition, it comes with a crevice tool with LED lights, for easy cleaning of dark spaces.

Though lightweight, don’t underestimate its power. Equipped with a Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor, it spins at up to 120,000rpm to generate 100 Air Watts of powerful suction. Its 11 scrolled cyclones are designed to remove fine dust and dirt from the airflow.  On top of that, the Dyson Digital Slim™ has a 5-layer filtration system that captures dust and allergens. 

In terms of battery, this vacuum has up to 40 minutes of run time which puts it at the top of the spectrum as the average battery life of vacuums is between 15-40 minutes, though there may be outliers that can push a little longer than that. Further, the 3.5 hour charge time isn’t really a concern as you just have to leave it at the wall dock while it charges.

It has an LCD screen that allows you to receive filter maintenance reminders which takes the guesswork out of things and is helpful if you’re too busy to remember when it needs to be changed. It also displays the performance, settings, and blockage reports in real time. 

Key features of the Dyson Digital Slim™ Fluffy Pro vacuum (Gold/Iron):

• Smooth bin emptying - The ejection mechanism with rotary catch enables no contact emptying of the bin 
• Easy maintenance - The components can be easily washed and wiped to keep them clean
• Removable battery - The battery can be replaced with an additional click-in one(sold separately) to instantly double the run time

The difference between the Gold/Iron variant and the Purple/Iron colourway is that the former is a direct exclusive to the Dyson Demo store and www.dyson.my, and it includes an additional floor dock.

Overview
