It’s understandable to be initially skeptical when presented with something like the SOWTECH cordless vacuum. On the one hand, it makes a whole bunch of claims about its capabilities as a convenient cordless handheld. On the other, how much can you realistically expect from a rechargeable dustbuster for this kind of price?
The short answer is quite a lot, as you’ll find out in the details of my SOWTECH Cordless vacuum review. It boasts fantastic convertible design and powerful cyclonic suction, and there is much more to this thing than meets the eye.
Lightweight, versatile, and complete with all the accessories you’ll need to reach every corner of the home, it’s hard not to be impressed, particularly when you consider its price, which again seems almost too good to be true.
While it may not perform on the same level as a top-shelf stick vacuum, you need to consider what you’re actually getting for your money. Which, in the case of the SOWTECH cordless vacuum cleaner, is an absolute bargain – no question about it!
Features of SOWTECH Cordless Vacuum
This compact piece of kit has been designed primarily with convenience and versatility in mind. It’s a good looking appliance with impressive lightweight characteristics and a decent contingency of accessories included in the box. The official size and weight specifications of the SOWTECH HM226 are as follows:
- Product Dimensions – 15.8 x 5.9 x 4.7 inches
- Item Weight – 4.06 pounds
- Shipping Weight – 4.9 pounds
When paying this kind of money for a quality cordless, you expect a certain amount of compromise. Particularly given how some of the more premium vacuum on the market cost more than four times as much as the SOWTECH vacuum. Nevertheless, the manufacturer makes the following claims regarding the features and functionalities of the SOWTECH HM226 Cordless Vacuum
Pro-Cyclone System
Unlike most comparable handhelds, this innovative device features a genuine, true pro cyclonic suction system, which translates to exceptional power and performance from start to finish.
Advanced Filtration Technology
Taking things several steps further than many handheld cleaners, the SOWTECH Cordless Vacuum Cleaner uses five-stage filtration technology to remove more than 99% of dust effectively, dirt and general contaminants from the air.
Long-Running Time
Along with a battery that charges relatively quickly, the SOWTECH vacuum can be used for up to 40 minutes from a single charge. More than enough to vacuum the average home from top to bottom.
All Round Versatility
The SOWTECH Rechargeable Cordless Vacuum Cyclonic Suction Lightweight Handheld Vacuum Cleaner itself weighs approximately 4lbs and ships with six accessories as standard. Everything needed to reach into every corner in the crevice of the home with ease.
Life-long Use Stainless Steel Filter
The removable stainless steel filter is said to be more durable and environmentally friendly than a standard HEPA filter. Simply remove the filter and give it a rinse on a regular basis to keep it fresh and clean.
Quiet and Discreet Vacuuming
Rated at no more than 75dB noise reduction technology when in use, this dustbuster friendly to noise-sensitive and significantly quieter to use than many comparable vacuum cleaners.
SOWTECH Cordless Vacuum Review – Pet Hair and Allergies
One of the most impressive aspects of the SOWTECH cordless vacuum’s performance is its capacity to pick up problematic pet hair from around the home. Even where deeply embedded pet hair in carpets is concerned, it makes light work of just about any everyday cleaning job. As it is a lightest cordless vacuum, it is also perfect for cleaning furniture, awkward corners, and even the car.
As the manufacturer indicates, the SOWTECH HM226 cordless hand vacuum is capable of removing at least 99% of allergens and contaminants from the air. Coupled with the ultra-hygienic washable stainless steel filter, this makes it a great choice for households with pets and for anyone who suffers from allergies.
Pros
- Very lightweight and convenient to use
- Impressive power and performance
- Fast charging and good battery life
- Suitable for all floor types and furnishings
- Ships with multiple accessories
- Removable stainless steel filter
- Great for dust and allergen reduction
Cons
- Not quite as powerful as a premium cordless
Final Thoughts
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – it’s all about value for money. The way I see it, if you don’t absolutely need to spend $300+ on a vacuum cleaner, you really don’t have to. You could keep more than $200 of this cash in your pocket and still take home an impressive machine, like the SOWTECH cordless vacuum.
Put to the test, and it’s one of the most versatile and user-friendly vacuums you’ll ever have the pleasure of working with. It may not have the earth-shattering power or prestige as some of the market’s more premium models, but seriously – we’re talking everyday appliances for cleaning the home!In terms of performance, versatility, and value for money, the SOWTECH Cordless Dustbuster is well worth checking out in every way.

I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MY LITTLE SOWTECH AND HAVE RECOMMENDED TO EVERYONE I KNOW. WHEN YOU ARE IN YOUR 70’S, GETTING THE BIG VACUUM OUT IS A “HUGE” CHORE ON ARTHRITIC HANDS, KNEES, BACK. THIS LITTLE HANDY DANDY SOWTECH PICKS UP ALL THE UNSIGHTLY THINGS BROUGHT IN TO LEAVE ON LINOLEUM ( ALSO OTHER AREAS). MY PUG SLEEPS IN BED, SO I HAVE TO DAILY VACUUM HIS HAIR OFF BED. IT PICKS IT ALL UP. UNFORTUNATELY I DROPPED MY FIRST SOWTECH. I IMMEDIATELY, IF NOT SOONER, ORDERED ANOTHER. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS OLD LADIES LIFE SO MUCH EASIER. 🙂

Hello Helen – well I have owned a SOWTECH handheld for probably a year. The battery will not hold a charge. So disappointed that I cannot find where to get a replacement battery…do you know? It works for about 60 seconds at a time, recharging required constantly…

I recently ordered the Sowtech SVC1021-L Cyclone Vacuum cleaner from Amazon after reading many reviews, I am Approaching 60 and have Arthritis in both hips so was thrilled when my delivery arrived, However this was short lived as the main part was missing The AC Adaptor which was definately part of the contents and without it the Vacuum is pointless, Amazon could not provide the AC adaptor charger as this was not there policy. I explained to them that i do not have neither a Smart phone or a Printer to get returns label to return. This has caused me a lot of upset and im afraid i had to give my delivery experience a bad review as without the AC adaptor charger the Vacuum cleaner is No good. And as a pensioner if i was to attempt to purchase the charger myself i might end up with the wrong one and i can not afford to loose more money. Please can you help me. Anna.
