An Amazon vacuum cleaner that rivals Shark and Dyson is now almost half price. In a new limited-time deal, the Smoture VAC02 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has been reduced from £199.99 to £109.99. This marks a saving of £90 or 45% from the original price and is the lowest ever offered for the vacuum, according to price tracker camelcamelcamel . This budget-friendly model regularly features in Amazon’s best-selling vacuum cleaners list and has been highlighted as an Amazon’s Choice product. It provides a cheaper alternative to devices like the Shark Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner with Anti Hair Wrap (£170) and boasts a high review score of 4.6 stars, beating Shark’s 4.5. The Smoture VAC02 is said to deliver ‘remarkable’ suction thanks to its brushless 600w motor, which allows it to remove dust, pet hair and stubborn dirt from carpets, hardwood floors and furniture. The vacuum is designed with an LED panel that allows for easy monitoring and adjusting of its suction levels. When in Auto mode, the suction is automatically adjusted to match the floor type, so it will increase the strength for carpet or decrease it for hard floors. The Smoture has a long-lasting battery that can run for up to 65 minutes from a single charge and takes between four and five hours to fully charge. It’s also free-standing, allowing users to conveniently stand the vacuum cleaner upright without it tipping over, while green LED headlights illuminate hard-to-see dirt. Smoture’s VAC02 rivals major brands like Hoover, which has just slashed £100 off its HF4 Hydro Pet Cordless Vacuum Cleaner With Anti Hair Wrap . Although more pricey at £219, this model includes a ‘hydro nozzle’ for mopping the kitchen, bathroom or other hard floors. But the Smoture VAC02 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has won over Amazon customers, with 93% of reviewers awarding it four or five stars. Several satisfied shoppers have said it ‘outperforms’ more expensive Dyson and Shark vacuums. One said: “The suction is excellent, it easily picks up dirt, pet hair, and debris from both carpets and hard floors without needing to go over the same spot. The battery life is also outstanding and I really appreciate the visible battery level indicator. “I’ve owned both Dyson and Shark cordless vacuums and this outperforms them both in terms of power and usability. It’s lightweight, easy to manoeuvre, and feels well-designed. Another said: “It’s lightweight, easy to use, easy to empty and has transformed my vacuuming. It’s easy to carry up and down stairs. The amount that comes off my carpets and hard floors proves it’s really powerful. I can’t fault it in any way and for the reasonable price it outperforms other more expensive cleaners.” However, this buyer left a mixed three-star review for the Smoture vacuum , saying: “I expected it to vacuum my whole house on one charge but it only did my kitchen and lounge then packed up. It picked up well and I could see the dust and bits of crumbs because of the light on the front but I want it to do the whole house in one go, I only have a little house, I wonder if the battery is faulty.” While another glowing review said: “Bought this as a replacement for a Shark that would no longer pick anything up. Using this is like night and day – the suction is amazing and we ended up having to empty it four times doing one rug on the first go (we have six cats, so you can imagine the fur buildup). “The auto feature is great as we have both carpet and hard flooring. It is not too heavy and charges quickly.”
