Polaris vacuum cleaners have won a positive reputation among consumers, which differ from their competitors in their favorable cost and good technical and operational characteristics.

Among the variety of product lines there are the most popular models. In this article, we present the most purchased brand vacuum cleaners, designate their technical characteristics and features identified by the owners during use. We also talk about the basic criteria that you can focus on when choosing the right vacuum cleaner model.

Top 10 best vacuum cleaners manufacturer

Polaris cleaning equipment is represented by the following categories: traditional bag and cyclone aggregates, vertical models and robotic vacuum cleaners.

The pricing policy of the company is very loyal. Most units belong to the middle and budget segment, models are more expensive - this is a robotic technique.

For an objective comparison, devices of different types and costs are included in the rating. Technical parameters are supplemented by practical user reviews.

1st place - Polaris PVB 1801

The rating gold was given to the traditional bag model Polaris PVB 1801. By many selection criteria, the unit is rightfully considered the leader. Among the main advantages: low price, powerful traction, spacious dust collector, stylish design.

The parameters declared by the manufacturer are justified by positive reviews.

Specifications:

  • thrust - 360 W;
  • motor power - 1800 W;
  • dust collector - 2 l bag;

Users appreciated the high efficiency, the large volume of the bag, a practical set of nozzles, and the lack of motor overheating. Noise during the work is acceptable - it does not cause much discomfort.

Some did not have the length of the cord and the choice of colors. However, at such a price it is very difficult to choose a more decent model of a Polaris vacuum cleaner.

2nd place - Polaris PVC 1836

An honorable second position was given to a brand representative with a cyclone dust filter. Despite the capacious container, the unit is quite compact and maneuverable. Its weight is 5.56 kg.

Traction power - 380 watts was also praised. During operation, the vacuum cleaner does not lose power. Stability of absorption is promoted by the multicyclone consisting of two filtering elements. Separation of contaminants occurs in the container - the dust settles to the bottom and does not clog the filter.

The main criteria for choosing a vacuum cleaner

The principles of selection of cleaning home appliances are the same for all manufacturers. Before buying, you need to determine the type of vacuum cleaner, the preferred option for a dust collector, the required power and a filtration system.

Features of different devices

First of all, you need to choose the optimal type of vacuum cleaner. All variety is divided into three categories: cylindrical, vertical and robotic vacuum cleaners.

Traditional vacuum cleaners with a hose remain at the peak of popularity. Their main advantages: high power, versatility, reliability and a loyal pricing policy.

Bag vacuum cleaner
Cons of operation: cumbersome equipment, the need to control the position of the wire, increased energy consumption

These shortcomings are deprived of vertical models of autonomous action. A small cylindrical body is attached to the handle with a nozzle. The proximity of the engine to the brush allows you to use low power motors, so portable units are considered energy efficient.

Cons of vertical vacuum cleaners:

  • high level of noise;
  • despite being compact, some models are quite heavy;
  • small dust bag.

Robotic equipment is fundamentally different from previous vacuum cleaners. Modern units are able to clean the house without human intervention. Devices are programmed to work in different modes. Models of the latest generation of premium can be controlled remotely via Wi-Fi.

Vacuum cleaner robot
The main disadvantage of robots is the high cost. Vacuum cleaners of an affordable price category have insufficient power and do not always cope with wool cleaning, carpet cleaning

When choosing the type of device, you need to compare the purchase budget and the expected operating conditions.

Which dust bag is better?

Efficiency, power and degree of dust retention are largely determined by the principle of dust collection.

There are three options:

  1. Bag vacuum cleaners. Such devices are cheaper, characterized by high power and relative compactness. Cons: the need to buy replacement bags, loss of traction when filling the tank.
  2. Cyclones. Main advantages: stability of suction power, no need to update the dust bag. Cons: gradual clogging of the pump filters and their change, increased noise level, the accumulation of static electricity. The cyclone container requires regular cleaning.
  3. Aquafilters. Hydraulic units better clean the air and partially moisturize it. An additional plus - no need to spend money on supplies. Disadvantages: cumbersome, the need to add water during cleaning, the high cost, the complexity of maintenance.

There are no models with aquafilters in the Polaris product line. A large assortment of bag aggregates at an affordable price.

Read more about the principle of operation of vacuum cleaners of various designs Further.

Vertical vacuum cleaner
Cyclone dust collectors are equipped with all robotic vacuum cleaners and vertical portable appliances. The same technology is implemented in a series of cylindrical units of the brand

Motor power and suction power

It is traction that determines the effectiveness of cleaning. For household appliances, an indicator of 320-350 W is enough under standard operating conditions.

In some cases, an individual approach is required:

  1. For allergy sufferers, it is better to take a vacuum cleaner with a maximum traction - about 450-500 watts.
  2. If there are no carpets in the apartment, then low-power models are suitable - up to 300-350 watts.
  3. In the house with pets, numerous carpets - 400-450 watts.

A power reserve should be provided. As the garbage container fills, traction drops by 10-30%.

Accounting for additional parameters

In addition to the indicated criteria, it should be taken into account: the degree of filtration, noise level, equipment, tank volume and the convenience of the handle.

HEPA filter
High degree of purification is provided by HEPA filters. The barrier holds up to 95% of the dust inside the container. Almost all Polaris models are equipped with such elements.

The acceptable noise level of a household vacuum cleaner is 70-72 dB. Robotic devices can brag of a smaller indicator.

The dimensions of the device and the duration of work without cleaning the tank depend on the volume of the container. You should adhere to the rule: the larger the room, the more spacious the dust container should be.

Universal brush
Of the nozzles, it is desirable to have a universal brush and a crevice accessory. Turbo brush shows excellent results - suitable for carpet cleaning, wool collection

It is desirable that the power switching button is located on the handle. The user does not have to lean toward the housing during cleaning.

    I know that Polaris is a budget device, I had a blender for this brand. I worked for a year and a half and fell apart, the knives were initially weak, chopped only soft. But it cost a little over 1 thousand rubles. Therefore, I will definitely not buy a vacuum cleaner of this brand. Moreover, they basically only have vacuum cleaners with bags, and this is the last century. Now it is very difficult to find replaceable bags.

      The main purpose of the vacuum cleaner is already in its name - it is to suck (suck) dust. And the fact that Polaris is really a low-cost equipment does not mean at all that vacuum cleaners of this brand will do worse with their basic functions than vacuum cleaners of other branded companies. Polaris vacuum cleaners have an ideal price-performance ratio. They are bought primarily by those for whom the main thing is cleanliness and order in the apartment, and not the name of a famous brand with a lot of unnecessary additional options.And as for removable trash bags: it's not that hard to find. They are sold in all household appliance stores.
