Pros & cons

RYOBI 18V ONE+ HP Brushless Jobsite Hand Vacuum Kit

  • Brushless HP motor with published specs: up to 34 CFM, 84 IOW sealed suction
  • HEPA filtration, uncommon in this category (most handhelds use a washable filter only)
  • 45-minute rated runtime is long for a handheld
  • Ships as a complete kit with a 4Ah battery and charger — no assumed existing battery
  • 68 dB sound level is quiet for a brushless motor
  • 3-in-1 handheld / stick vac / stationary design and a 3-year warranty
  • No motorized pet-hair brush among the included accessories
  • $189 kit price is high for the handheld category
  • Dimensions beyond weight not published by Ryobi
  • Larger and heavier than a basic 12V dustbuster-style handheld
  • Too new/niche a line for long-term owner reliability data

RYOBI ONE+ 18V Cordless Hand Vacuum with Powered Brush (Tool Only)

  • Genuine motorized mini beater bar for pet hair — not just a passive brush attachment
  • Published airflow (30 CFM) and sealed-suction (23 IOW) specs instead of vague marketing claims
  • Over 40-minute rated runtime, long for a handheld
  • Comes with a dust brush and crevice tool in addition to the pet beater bar
  • 3-year limited warranty
  • Cheaper than Ryobi's premium PBLHV701K brushless kit if you already own a battery
  • Tool only — no battery or charger included, adding real cost if you don't already own Ryobi ONE+ batteries
  • No published filtration type (HEPA or otherwise)
  • No published weight or dimensions
  • Too new a line for long-term owner reliability data
