Tineco A11 Hero Cordless Lightweight Stick Vacuum Cleaner, 450W Motor for Ultra Powerful Suction Handheld Vac for Carpet, Hard Floor & Pet

I bought this vacuum a year ago. It wasn’t what I was expecting when I bought. I was looking for a vacuum that is good for pet hair and really wanted a cordless vacuum. I wasn’t a big fan when I first got it but gave it a try. I have dogs and the filters smell after a few uses. I feel like I’m constantly washing them. The battery only lasts for about 1 pass through the house and turns off frequently during this. I have hard wood floors and loved the different attachment for it. However debris is always falling out back onto the floor! And clumps of hair will stay on some of the rugs. I would’ve put the money for this towards a Dyson!

If I wrote this 1 year ago it would give 5 stars, but I still have stars in my eyes for it, it’s light weight, good for my weak wrists. It picks up pet hair and I have a lot of it. Quick and fast clean-up for that unexpected guest. Great for a bedroom, bathroom, smaller room, or about 20 minutes of vacuuming anywhere in the house. It will not vacuum a 2,000 sq foot house in one charge, so don’t buy it for that, plug in a cord for that. I don’t use it on carpet, but I do use it for kitty litter tracks, and while it will pick it up I have to go over slow or a few times. It comes apart for easy cleaning, the latches are a little hard to open, but I think you want that so it will keep good suction. Oh, one thing to be aware of, it does not stand up on its own, so trying to make a quick getaway will likely end it up on the floor or back in its base. Overall it’s a great product, and I’m glad I bought it.

Disappointed. I have an older Shark stick vac and needed a replacement. I read the reviews and videos and felt this might be the one. Its almost too light, sort of flops around and the top seems heavy...off balance with the entire machine. It is not self propelled. Does not leave nice vacuum lines and the rotating bristle brushes are short and just skirt the top of the carpet. Long hair still get caught up in it. The suction is not what I expected. I never used the lowest setting because it just didnt do the job. The higher suction level buttons had better suction. Fairly easy to clean out. Lots of nice attachments. With Shark all the function buttons are within thumbs reach. This unit power suction level button is on top away from the onoff un switch. Personal preference regarding button placement. When Im vacuuming I dont want to fidget with buttons. You must use the lock switch to keep the unit running or you have to constantly hold down the on button with with your finger. The handle sort of rubbed a sore spot on my thumb. Over all I just didnt care for it so I gave it to my husband to use when cleaning the vehicles.

I have had my vacuum now several months. I was at first intimidated by all the filters, the cleaning of the filters, but now that I know how to do the cleaning I am able to do it easily. I am impressed by the suction. I use my vacuum for area rugs only. It is very strong and really cleans the rugs well! The drawbacks: The battery does not last long enough to vacuum all my rugs at the same time, and the dust bin needs to be emptied very frequently during the vacuum as it fills up too fast. For the price, I think it is worth it. Also, kudos to Tineco customer service. I called them today for a problem of my own making and they were very attentive and really made an effort to help me.

I don’t usually write reviews but after owning this vacuum for about 3 months, I couldn’t get it to run. I really loved how easy and efficiently it cleaned, so I called customer service to see if they could help me. After a brief phone call, the technician was able to isolate the issue and offered to send me a replacement part, free of charge. I am impressed not only with the vacuum itself, but with the customer service and responsiveness of Tineco.

After 2 years of use, it needs to be recharged more frequently than once per week. On bare surfaces it works like a dustbuster on steroids. But on rugs and carpets it is no match for a good corded, lightweight stick vacuum available from other manufacturers, like Shark. I bought one of those and now only use the Tineco for light, bare floor duty.

Use for quick cleaning when I dont want to drag out corded vac.Like the adjustable suction for lighter fabrics and rugs. Bought this to use on stairs .Is ok for that but not as well as I had hopedbut the carpet is that old 70s sculpted nylon carpet thats pretty worn .Is easier than using corded upright.. Wish it had a extendable wand to help us shortys reach high spots.would be handy to have another holder on rack to store the filter cleaning tool

When I first used the vac I was impressed but now I am not happy with this vacuum. It doesn’t have the suction that I would like. I picks up dust prefectly but anything with weight such as peanuts, little pebbles, little pieces cardboard etc. have to keep going over the the items several times to pick up and it sometimes it spit out the items you just picked up from the floor brush. The on /off switch is placed to close to handle snd I’m always hitting it by mistake so then the vac shuts off. That’s a real annoying problem when you are vacuuming. I have wool rugs that shed when vacuuming and the the debris gets stuck around the bagless canister and I have to open up, dump out the debris frequently even though the canister isn’t filled up. So what I’m saying I would not recommend this vac and I thought I did my research when buying thoroughly but it doesn’t meet my standards of quality. Update: July 2022 I have had this vac since March 2022 snd would like to say I didn’t realize there was a button that increases the suction power which has improved the working performance of this product. Even on high it may not pick up everything but it’s better than the low or medium speeds but the handle gets warm from the battery working at high speed.

OK. So Im a terrible internet shopper because I almost *never* leave reviews for *anything*. However, I am so compelled by how utterly fantastic this vacuum is that I have no choice but to write one. Strap yourself in. The attention to detail that the engineers at Tineco have is unprecedented. Their keen eye for functionality deserves heaps of awards and a standing ovation. The main goal in my review is to shed light on some of these small, unobtrusive features that make this vacuum a gosh darn (replace with exuberant profanity) marvel. The marketing team at Tineco needs to stop being so humble and start stomping their lame competition. Heres the list of the most praise-worthy features of the A11 hero+ 1) Lights for seeing dust on the floor. The lights on the front of the roller brush show you exactly where that chip you dropped ended up. Youll never ask yourself wait did I get that corner? again. 2) Integrated filter cleaning device. This is my personal favorite. You know how on most vacuums you need to occasionally wash the spongy micro filter? You know how much of a PITA that is? Then it has to dry off before using the vacuum again. Awful. Youll never have this issue with the Tineco. It has a separate attachment that is designed to clean off the micro filter. It takes <30 seconds and then youre back in business! Genius. 3) Multiple batteries. The thing comes with 2 batteries so that when one runs out of juice, you just re-load and carry on. All other vacuum manufacturers take note: this should be standard practice! 4) An easy to disassemble rotating brush. Worst thing about vacuums? Maintenance. Weve all spent far too much time sitting on the floor unraveling hair wrapped endlessly around the roller brush that wont turn anymore. It sucks. Once again, Tineco engineers come to the rescue here. The roller brush disassembles (no tools required) so that you can easily cut the hair directly off the brush. Once again, a minute or two and youre back in business! 5) Air circulated to cool the battery circuit. Ok, so this one is a bit esoteric but bear with me -- it shows that the people who made this vacuum really care about their work. The air coming out the HEPA filter is actually recirculated down the handle directly into the battery pack to cool the battery and related circuitry. **who even has the time to come up with this?!** 6) Squeeze release latches for EVERYTHING. No tools required. You can: change attachments, change batteries, remove the micro filter, remove the HEPA filter, empty the canister all with squeeze latches. Thank you Tineco for not making me break out the tool box just to do NORMAL MAINTENANCE! 7) Its very quiet. I havent looked at other reviews but if anyone says this thing is loud, they clearly live on the moon where there are no people, no cars, not even the occasional squirrel. OK, maybe it isnt whisper quiet but even our cats dont seem to mind and they mind literally EVERYTHING. Do yourself a favor, step your game up, quit swooning over Dyson, and buy this vacuum.

I have been using a Roomba vac and have loved it. My daughter convinced me to buy this new vac for my new house- said it would blow my mind. She was right. It finds dust bunnies, pet hair and debris from places I didnt know existed! Great suction. The light on the wand is a great addition. Thought I wouldnt like how short the rotatingroller brush is, but in fact the smaller size allows for getting into very small spaces. Lots of attachments. Easy to clean. Wish the charge lasted longer but my shoulder needs a rest after the 30 minutes anyway. Great purchase. Highly recommend. Great price.
