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

I got this as my first cordless stick vacuum and have been very impressed! I’ve had it for 2 months and have had no issues! I use it on the lowest setting (there are 3 settings) and it does the job super well for me! I can still see the vacuum lines in the carpet even on the lowest setting! I’ve vacuumed my couch and mattress and am amazed at the amount of stuff that comes out of it! I never realized how much my dogs shed (even though they are hypoallergenic) or how much dirt they bring in from a quick potty break outside. I feel like this vacuum helps get things tidy in a hurry! I love all of the attachments! I can now vacuum my baseboards without bending down and wiping them with a rag. It’s great! I really couldn’t get over the powerfulness of this vacuum. When I first received it, it felt cheap and too lightweight to really be super effective but I was wrong! The only thing I don’t love is that if you’re using it for a long time (20 mins or more) it does get a little uncomfortable, for me anyway. My hand starts to cramp up but it could be because my hands are small though! However I do LOVE that it has a lever where you can hold the trigger in place and don’t have to hold the trigger the entire time you’re vacuuming. Overall this is a great vacuum for my needs so far and I highly recommend! If you can, wait until it goes on sale! I got mine for $190 where as it’s $250 right now! Look for a deal! Hope this helps!

Description claims its good on hardwood floors. This is NOT TRUE. No matter which of the three powers you use, it throws the sand behind the vacuum rather than actually picking it up. If you need a vacuum for hardwood floors to pick up sand from being outdoors, dont buy this unless you have the patience to go back and fourth multiple times over the area you cleaned. The sand gets blown behind the cleaning head, and it takes multiple passes to pick it up. It wastes my time.

This is a great little vacuum for smooth floors, and it also works quite well for low-pile carpets and area rugs, though you may have to step on the corner of a mat to keep it in place. Low suction power is generally sufficient for most smooth-floor vacuuming, and at that setting, the battery lasts at least as long as advertised. It also has medium and high suction settings. I kind of wish it were designed to charge without the dust bin, so it could charge while the dust bin is drying. I prefer the option of some other models in which the charger plugs directly into the motor. That said, the fact that the unit charges automatically when hung in its bracket is very convenient. This is an unbelievable bargain, considering it is also a powerful little hand vac with a rotating brush. I am beyond pleased every time I see an ad for another brand costing more than twice as much and think, My Tineco does that! Of course I havent had it long and dont know how long it will last.

We have had this vacuumed for over two years. Wanted something for a quick vacuum. These will not replace the cleaning power of a corded vacuum under the best conditions. For the first 6 months it got used a lot. Washing the main filter does not clean it well enough to return the suction power so we would turn it on hi which would reduce battery life. Frustrated it wound up hanging on the wall for close to a year. Replacement filters get expensive and they will need to be replaced often. Even blowing out with air hose will not clean them. I cut one open and the layers are so tight I understood why. The vacuum build is great and it has held up. I wound up cutting off the cloth of two of the filters and replacing them with foam that I can take off and wash. It is now getting used once again.

As an engineer I prefer German and American designs and products. This is the first time I have purchased a Chinese product that I would highly recommend. After researching a vacuum that would meet my needs, I came across the Tineco brand which has earned recommendations from Consumer Reports and Consumer Electronics Show (CES) for one of the best in class products. I have used this product for over a month now and can see that it lives up to its reputation. This is not some cheap Dyson knock-off (Ive owned 3 so far). In fact it has a small feature with big results - led lights on the vacuum head. These leds highlight my German Shepherds loose hair on dark hard flooring easily. Something that I miss easily with my corded Dyson. The Tineco has 3 vacuum power settings with the lowest setting as default. I have only used the highest setting for larger objects (pea gravel my dog tracks in) and on my area rugs. In this setting, it rivals my corded Dyson in cleaning. The variable vacuum power settings extend the battery life and the charger provides quick charging (with visual indicators for charging status). The Tineco comes with several attachments with some of them powered. The powered attachments are surprisingly articulated and maneuver well around and under objects. This dirt collection bin pops open easily for cleaning and the filter has a good chromed surface that sheds dirt with no problem. Filter pops out with a quick twist of the wrist to assist with dirt disposal- especially useful for the aforementioned long dog hair. As it is extremely light weight, I can use it on stairs easily or for cleaning cobwebs from my vaulted ceiling using one hand. I find myself only using the Dyson once a week when cleaning the entire house as it has a larger dirt collection bin. I would highly recommend this product.

I waited to write this review for 3 months after purchasing the Tineco A11 Hero+ vacuum. I live in a 1,200 sq. ft townhouse and this vacuum is very convenient to use as a daily cleaning tool. I would still recommend using a more powerful vacuum (like an upright/corded) every 2-3 weeks to get an even deeper clean. Pros: 1) Batteries/Cordless - Comes with 2 - 2000 mah lithium batteries. We can usually clean the entire house using just one of the 2 batteries, but it is certainly a benefit since you can cycle which you use to help extend the life of this product. I also feel like having no cords to hinder you make it very versatile, especially if you need to clean your vehicle. 2) Included filter cleaning tool -- This makes it super easy to clean all of the dust collected in the pre-filter and helps to maintain suction every time you use your Tineco! 3) The wall mount is extremely convenient to use and can hold the accessories and charge both batteries at the same time. 4) Led Lights -- I never knew how much dust/grime I was missing in dimly lit areas of my house, but this makes it easy to see areas that still need to be cleaned. Its also convenient if you like cleaning in the dark! 5) Max Mode -- This option provides a huge increase to suction power and is great when trying to clean deeply soiled carpets. Of course, this will consume your battery a lot faster than normal mode, so that is the trade-off. Cons: 1) The main power brush this model comes with is good overall, but still struggles a bit picking up pet food and litter from our hard floors. It would be nice if both the soft brush and the power brush were included with this model. 2) Long hair still wraps around the power brush on this vacuum. On the plus side, it is easy to remove and doesnt appear to impact performance. This is the first cordless vacuum that I have ever purchased and pulled the trigger based upon a recommendation from a coworker. I am very glad I purchased it and have good piece of mind knowing that my registration will further extend the product warranty for 2 years. Im sure if we have any issues, they will easily take care of us.

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’ve now had the Hero since July. I use mostly on hardwood floors but do have carpets in the bedrooms and area rugs throughout. I love the light that comes on automatically when the vacuum is in use. It comes with three speeds so you change with the touch of a button on the go. If you have a larger room or want to do multiple rooms at once without stopping, there is also a clip that will hold it in the on position until you return the clip to its original position. One thing that made me up front buy over the other vacuum options available were the accessories included. I love the wall hanger! Keeps the vacuum charged and nicely displayed and easy to remove quickly to pick up something you noticed on the fly. You can choose how to use. Whether on the floor, the furniture, the curtains, there are many possibilities for the Hero really throughout the entire home. It is important to clean the filters regularly as the user manual recommends. It also tells you how to do it. I did not do so and I experienced some loss of suction. After quickly realizing my issue, I put in the extra filter while washing and drying the other out completely. This did help bring that suction back so keep up on maintaining the cleanliness of the filters. During this time I did reach out to customer service and WOW! I have purchased thousands of items over the years and also have been in customer service in the past. I can tell you, Tineco goes above and beyond to ensure their customers know 1) you as a customer are valued and heard. 2) Tineco is there to assist you with anything from video directions because you’re more visual to answering questions that maybe aren’t asked by others. If you appreciate great value, great customer service and included accessories to clean your whole house and even your car, buy this vacuum. You won’t regret it!

Takes awhile to learn how to use. Good suction.

I first saw one of these being used at a restaurant, and was impressed enough to go to Amazon and start looking. I decided on the Hero as it specifically mentioned pet hair, and awaited it eagerly. I did fumble it a bit at first, but it really does an incredible job. The dustbin was filling up so fast I thought it must be actually physically removing carpet, so I went through one load carefully. No carpet fibers, but all sorts of hairs and dirt and dust. All my rugs brightened up amazingly, and it proved to be an amazing little tool. So light and easy to use. The one thing it has trouble with is gravel and grit, but dealing with that is quite easy. A lot of grit will catch in the power head, so I carefully take it to the bin, gently flip it up and let it fall a few times, and all the captured grit falls into the bin. For stuff it cant actually suck up it will dump a neat little pile where you lift the head up, and that is easy to get with a dust pan and brush. It does very well on the lowest suction setting - and the higher settings do even better when needed. All round this is an amazing tool, great fun to use, astoundingly efficient while making very little noise. It took me a while to get my head round that - virtually no noise and the dustbin was full. Just the opposite of all those unbelievably loud upright cleaners - all noise and no performance. I heartily recommend this tool for anyone who loves cleaning, anyone who hates cleaning, and anyone who does actually clean when it gets too much to tolerate. I am in this last group. It is light and quiet enough to just pick up and use for a 5 minute whisk around at any time. My first time at the living room, I figure that the dustbin needed emptying once for every 4 square feet of carpet. With time that has gone up , and now I can do most of the room before needing to empty it. I love it!!!
