Samsung 1800w obsolete cyclone

Previously, when there was no wide range, and the range of vacuum cleaners was limited to 1-3 series, the devices differed mainly in power and design. In 2014-2016, many reviews were published about the Samsung Twin 1800W model. About 5 years ago, she was really popular and left supermarket shelves very quickly.

The quality of parts and workmanship was on top - the model can still be found on resale sites. The owners are asking for an outdated vacuum cleaner for some characteristics 2-3 thousand rubles.

Negative moments include insufficiently flexible hose material, loud noise during cleaning, and rapid wear of the filter sponge.

A brief photo review of the characteristics of the Samsung Twin 1800w vacuum cleaner:

Due to the low price and a set of basic functions bagless vacuum cleaners Samsung demanded and loved by users. The 1800w models are medium-power vacuum cleaners that are quite suitable for household cleaning.

Enhanced Option - Samsung SC18M21A0S1 / VC18M21AO

A similar model was produced on the basis of a vacuum cleaner, which had long left the conveyors of Samsung factories, but already from improved materials and with a more thoughtful design.

Vacuum cleaner SC18M21A0S1
This is a SC18M21A0S1 vacuum cleaner with a powerful turbine, which is now actively sold in network markets at an average price of 5650-6550 rubles

In fact, this is the same Samsung 1800w vacuum cleaner, and if you are used to the old model, but it is already out of order, you can safely buy the updated version. The same model on the manufacturer’s website is labeled VC18M21AO.

Design and useful features

The manufacturer took into account the imperfections identified in the work of the predecessor vacuum cleaners, and tried to leave only the best in the new model.

From the point of view of developers, the device has the following advantages:

  1. Power increase through the use of new technology - Anti-Tangle Turbines. It prevents the accumulation of debris, dust and hair on the filter, which increases the duration of absorption by 2 times.
  2. Convenient use of a dust collector. Cleaning is carried out in three stages: took out - opened - poured out.
  3. Compact design: the model, like its predecessors, is lightweight, maneuverable, has dimensions reduced by 22%.
  4. Increasing comfort for use, comfortable rotary handle Easy grip. Thanks to it, the hose does not twist, no additional effort is required during operation.

Similar technological solutions are also found in other manufacturers, but Samsung is distinguished by the fact that it does not exhibit good quality and additional usability at an unbearable price. All vacuum cleaners of this brand have a moderate, and somewhere budgetary cost.

By design, the new model resembles prototypes produced more than 10 years ago. This is a compact device with an elastic hose and a straight telescopic tube, connected to the network with a long power cord.

For storage, the vacuum cleaner is installed in a vertical position, and the tube is fixed on the body - so the device takes up a minimum of usable space.

Design features of the model SC18M21A0S1 / VC18M21AO - in the photo review:

As you can see, the manufacturer tried to improve the design, but at the same time he simplified the model. For example, the control unit was transferred from the handle to the housing, while removing the ability to adjust the suction power.

To vacuum the room, insert the plug into a power outlet, and then press the start button. The cord will automatically unwind to the desired length - a maximum of 6 m. Thus, the radius of the cleaning zone, taking into account the length of the hose and tube, will be about 9 m.

Wheels for moving the vacuum cleaner
For the free movement of the room and overcoming small obstacles, a pair of two rubberized large wheels on the sides and one small one - in front of the body

During the cleaning process, the bowl will fill up - this can be determined visually. As soon as it is full or the filters become clogged, the suction process will sharply weaken - the device will refuse to work further. To continue cleaning, you need to remove debris from the container and rinse the foam filter located under the bowl.

    I bought a model Samsung SC 6560 for my wife. The vacuum cleaner is pretty smart at handling dirt and dust. And in general it is very convenient in operation. I often use it myself in the garage. Korean quality speaks for itself. In my opinion, the price presented in stores for this brand is fully consistent with the stated. To summarize, Samsung is in no way inferior to its competitors.

  2. Irina

    I have been using the Samsung 1800w vacuum cleaner for four years now. It may be an outdated model of a vacuum cleaner, but I really like it. The vacuum cleaner draws dust well, it is convenient for them to vacuum in hard-to-reach places, and it easily moves around the apartment during cleaning. And let it work loudly, but it cleans it up well. And while I don’t think about buying a new vacuum cleaner.

  3. I need some kind of inexpensive but reliable vacuum cleaner that doesn't use bags. I will clean a small two-room apartment in Khrushchev. Samsung is a good company, before that I had their devices and the quality was quite fine with me. It is embarrassing that specifically about this model of the SC18M21A0S1 vacuum cleaner there are a lot of negative reviews. What makes noise is garbage, but they write that it overheats quickly and sucks worse when the container is filled by a third. I will think.
