Xiaomi Cordless Vac

Looks like a Dyson competitor. But it seems to be 'crowdfunded', so it might never see the light of day, or it might be destined for certain shores only.

Looks pretty suspicious, and Sir James is likely going to go after them for that fluffy head. I definitely would never give money to that company.

Hi,

I see a lot of vacuums almost identical to this one on Amazon. I also wondered if they would be considered competition simply because of the cyclone and dirt bin design being so similar.

Thanks for sharing! Interesting vacuum but I too am skeptical of crowd funded items that seem like they may never get fully launched.

Thanks

Looks like a Chinese Dyson clone.

I mean... are you surprised? They literally copy ENTIRE automobiles. A stick vac would be child's play.

Yeah, back in the '70s and '80s, one Chinese firm was making such good copies of Minolta cameras under the "Seagull" brand that when Minolta needed to free up production capacity to bring out its Maxxum line of autofocus cameras, they actually contracted with the maker of the Seagull cameras to produce legitimate, Minolta-branded versions of the cameras they'd been knocking off for years. Production continued under the supervision of Minolta engineers until Konica acquired Minolta and handed the camera business over to Sony.
