Cordless Upright Water Filtration Vacuum

[myles_v]

I found this recently and it looks intriguing. It's the first cordless water filtration vacuum that I've seen, and it's also a stick vac (advertised as an upright). It appears to just have a small handvac in it, and there's a bulbous piece just above the floor nozzle. I'm wondering if the lower piece relates to the water filtration.

Clearly, this doesn't look like a durable or deep cleaning machine, but I am almost intrigued enough to buy one.

Aha, I found a short YouTube video about it. I was correct about the bulbous piece toward the bottom, it holds the water filtration tank.

Alex...

It is to me, I'm actually surprised this post hasn't gotten more attention.

The same company makes one of the straight suction water filtration canisters that I've seen for sale online from time to time. https://smile.amazon.com/Kalorik-WF...6639985&sprefix=kalorik+water+,aps,138&sr=8-3

I like the idea of this for quick clean ups. I’m not sure I’d use the handheld mode since it’s a dry filter only. I remember HSN sold this not too long ago. The Kalorik canister had my eye too. But I haven’t owned either one.

See, it seems like it would be good for quick clean ups, but water filtration vacs take a bit of time to set up before use and clean up after use so that would negate any time savings from being cordless.

Really, it is interesting to me because I'm not sure what the target demographic of regular consumers and intended use would be.

Nice Idea. But wouldn't have one.

That would be no different than setting up a Rainbow or similar full size vacuum to clean the crumbs off a chair.

Far to much hassle and as we all know many consumers just don't want to take the time for proper care of a vacuum of any description.

Also what happens to the water in the cup if you want to clean under a low piece of furniture??
