The best 2-in-1 universal vacuum cleaners: vertical with a portable unit

The Zelmer ZSVC 412 vertical vacuum cleaner provides the user with standard functionality for cleaning a room or car. The affordable price corresponds to the capabilities and equipment. There is an electric turbo brush for cleaning wool from carpets, a crevice nozzle and a standard dust nozzle. A metal fixed pipe is used, which is removed, turning the vacuum cleaner into a compact unit with low weight for manual cleaning of furniture and walls. The model is aimed at regularly maintaining cleanliness, but will not be able to cope with complex tasks (high-pile carpets, coarse debris), since the suction power is not very high (11,000 Pa). You can choose one of two modes to prevent damage to delicate materials, such as suspended ceilings or wallpaper.

Zelmer ZSVC 412 is powered by a battery that lasts for 30 minutes of continuous operation. Enough to maintain daily order in the apartment without being tied to an outlet or wires. You will have to wait for a full 5 hours to fully charge, which is long enough for such autonomy. A charge level indicator is provided. The wall bracket guarantees secure parking of the vacuum cleaner.

The Xiaomi Mi Handheld Vacuum Cleaner Light transformable vacuum cleaner easily turns into a compact mini-unit weighing only 1.2 kg for easy cleaning of furniture, car interiors, curtains, and blinds. In normal mode, the model copes well with carpets and hard surfaces thanks to the electric turbo brush. The soft structure of the moving elements prevents scratches on the parquet (laminate). The crevice nozzle will help get rid of debris in the folds of the sofa, along the baseboard, and the dust nozzle with a soft tip will carefully collect dust even from equipment, such as a laptop, without the risk of damage. The wall bracket holds the vacuum cleaner and attachments.

Xiaomi Mi Handheld Vacuum Cleaner Light is equipped with a reliable brushless motor with adjustable power. There are two modes - standard and maximum, which is useful for heavy dirt. The suction power is sufficient for most tasks.

The filtration system consists of 3 levels. A mechanical barrier traps large fractions, a cotton pad traps dust, and HEPA gets rid of allergens and microparticles up to 0.3 microns in size. Garbage is securely held in the container, preventing it from falling back into the room.

It is worth noting the duration of work - 45 minutes. It is quite enough for cleaning a one-room apartment or a small office. 5 hours of charging is not the best indicator for such battery life.

Samsung Jet 60 Turbo VS-15A6031R1 is an advanced 2-in-1 vacuum cleaner thanks to its 410 W inverter motor. This workhorse provides good suction power, sufficient for complete cleaning of an apartment, office, or minibus. Depending on the coverage, degree of contamination or cleaning object, you can adjust the engine speed to create effective traction. Settings are easy with your thumb using the buttons on the handle. Greater capabilities lead to increased noise (86 dB), which must be taken into account when choosing.

The package includes a Jet Fit electric turbo brush, which shows good results on any carpet and hard surfaces. It can be rotated 180º for better maneuvering and comfortable corner processing. The dust and crevice nozzles work well when paired with a separate hand unit when you need to treat furniture and car interiors.

According to the manufacturer, the filtration system captures 99.99% of particles. This effect is achieved through the use of 5 levels of protection - a cyclone separator, a metal mesh, a Jet Cyclone system (9 blades / 27 air flows), a washable microfilter and HEPA for microparticles. All garbage is collected in a volumetric (0.8 l) container, which is easily removed, cleaned and washed under the tap.

The universal dock allows you to attach attachments and charge the battery when not in use. Thus, the vertical vacuum cleaner is always ready for use, and for the longest cleanings you can use a spare battery (not included), which will give you another 40 minutes of independence. The charging process takes only 3.5 hours.

The Dreame V11 upright vacuum cleaner stands out for its advanced capabilities and build quality. It is equipped with a high-speed motor and a system of complete control over operating modes. The color OLED display shows current settings, charging progress and service messages. The digital unit fully controls the motor, allowing you to set one of three power modes (Eco, Medium, Turbo), and if the air duct is blocked, it stops operation to avoid overheating and breakdowns. The engine is packaged in a separate flask, so even at maximum load it remains low noise (73 dB).

Dreame V11 is equipped with a multi-level filtration system that traps large debris, dust and microparticles up to 0.3 microns in size through the use of a HEPA12 fine filter. A vacuum cleaner will help get rid of allergens, mites and other parasites. Extended equipment is responsible for the cleaning process. In addition to the standard dust and crevice nozzles, the manufacturer has provided an additional mini-turbo brush and a flexible hose. They provide not only surface cleaning, but also cleaning of hard-to-reach places (under the car seat and furniture, behind cabinets, in niches). The vacuum cleaner exhibits high suction power (25,000 Pa), which in combination with a full-size motorized turbo brush is especially good for high-pile carpets. The vertical design quickly transforms into a portable unit with increased maneuverability and minimal weight.

The manufacturer has provided a really capacious battery (3000 mAh), which will last up to 90 minutes in standard mode. This is enough to keep it clean every day for a week. At maximum load, autonomy is 10 minutes, and combined use will provide an average of about 40 minutes of life activity.

The stylish and compact vertical vacuum cleaner JIMMY JV85 Pro is comparable in performance to classic models and is capable of carrying out general cleaning in a private house, apartment or minivan. The heart of the device is a 600 W brushless motor with 200 W suction power. It is the most productive in the JIMMY series, so it can easily handle large debris and hard-to-reach places. The latter is also facilitated by an angled rod and a flexible corrugated nozzle, which allow you to look under furniture, car seats and any places with difficult terrain. It is also worth noting that it comes with a motorized turbo brush with an anti-winding system for wool and hair on the roller, a mini turbo brush and a soft brush that can be used to go over delicate surfaces and equipment without the risk of leaving scratches.

The vacuum cleaner uses patented horizontal cyclone technology, which promotes maximum traction with minimal energy consumption. The absence of wires and the ability to be used as a portable hand unit greatly increases functionality. The user has 3 intensity modes available depending on the complexity of the contamination. The maximum service life on a single charge is 70 minutes (15 minutes in turbo mode), which is quite a lot for such power. You can visually control and change settings on the high-definition LED screen. It displays the selected mode and remaining battery charge, and signals the need to recharge. The latter is done using a docking station, which simultaneously holds all the attachments in one place. The disadvantage of such an effective device, perhaps, is the increased noise (82 dB), which can wake up not only children, but also neighbors.
