Polaro V18Cordless stick vacuum
One charge for the whole home: the hallway, the landing, the stairs, then the car. 45 kPa of suction lifts grit out of carpet and crumbs off hard floors, the colour screen shows you exactly what is going on, and the 1.5-litre bin means no stopping halfway round to empty it.
Taxes included. Free delivery.

The whole house in one go. No cord. No recharging halfway through.
It hangs on its wall mount or stands in a corner, ready when you are. Here is what changes once it moves in.
Quick cleans actually happen
No cable to unwind, no socket to find in every room. Lift it off the mount, do the floors, hang it back up.
The screen keeps you informed
Battery, power level and a clear alert if the filter needs a clean or something is blocking the tube.
Light on the floor head
White LEDs light up fine dust, crumbs and pet hair under the sofa and along the skirting boards.
Empty it once after cleaning the whole house
The 1.5-litre bin holds a full clean. Hold it over the kitchen bin, click, and the dust drops out.
45 kPa that lifts the dirt, not just moves it
A 550 W brushless motor drives up to 45,000 Pa of suction at the floor head. Grit trodden into the hall carpet, cereal under the table and litter kicked out of the tray come up on the first pass.
Pick Eco, Mid or Max with one touch, or leave it on Auto and let the vacuum set the power.
Up to an hour, with a battery that clicks out
Eco runs for up to 60 minutes, Mid for around 35 and Max for around 25. For most homes that means every room, the stairs and the car on a single charge.
The battery slides in and out by hand, which keeps charging and storage simple.
Everything you need to know, right on the body
The round colour display sits where your eyes already are. It shows the battery level and the mode you are in, and it warns you when the filter wants a clean or something is stuck in the tube.
Tap once to change power. No app, no pairing, no updates.
Empty it once, not after every room
The dust bin holds 1.5 litres, almost four times a typical 0.4-litre cordless bin. Hold it over the kitchen bin, press the release and the dust falls straight out.
Multi-layer HEPA filtration and a stainless-steel filter keep fine dust inside the machine instead of back in the room. Two HEPA and two foam filters come in the box.
Light where the dust hides
Four white LEDs across the front of the motorised floor head light the floor at a low angle, so fine dust and pet hair show up under the bed, beneath the sofa and along the skirting.
The roller brush works on carpet and hard floors alike, and the telescopic tube adjusts to your height.
Stairs, sofa, car. One click and it is a handheld.
Take the tube off and the body becomes a compact handheld with the same motor. The crevice tool reaches between car seats and down the side of the sofa, and the 2-in-1 brush takes care of upholstery, shelves and the dashboard.
When you stop, it stands up on its own. No propping it against the wall.
It does more than the floors
The same suction, pointed at the places a normal vacuum never reaches.
Sofa crevices
The long crevice tool slides down between the cushions and pulls out crumbs, coins and pet hair.
Corners and edges
Slim gaps, window frames and the corner behind the door, cleaned properly rather than skipped.
Curtains and soft furnishings
Lower the power and freshen curtains, cushions and headboards without taking anything down.
Three parts doing the hard work
A good cordless vacuum comes down to how well it picks up dirt, where the dust ends up and how little it gets in your way. Here is how the Polaro V18 handles each one.
Pull
The 550 W brushless motor creates up to 45 kPa at the head, while the motorised roller lifts the carpet pile and sweeps hard floors.
Trap
Multi-layer HEPA filtration and a stainless-steel filter hold fine dust in the 1.5-litre bin, which empties with a single click.
Tell
The colour screen shows battery and mode, and flags a blocked tube or a filter that needs cleaning before suction drops.
Your first month with Polaro V18
- First clean
You see what you were missing
The LEDs pick out the dust along the skirting you had been walking past. A minute later it is in the bin.
- Week one
Little and often
Because it is on the wall and ready, five-minute tidy-ups start replacing the big weekly session.
- Week two
The bin surprises you
You empty it far less often than you expected, and never with your hands in the dust.
- Month one
The old one stays in the cupboard
Stairs, sofa and car are all handled by the same machine, on the same charge.
Does “up to 60 minutes” hold up?
Fair question. Plenty of vacuums quote a runtime you will never see. Here is how ours breaks down.
The 60-minute runtime applies to Eco mode
Eco is the everyday setting for hard floors and most rooms. On carpet you will switch to Mid, around 35 minutes, and Max, around 25 minutes, is there for the stubborn mess.
Mix the modes, finish the house
Most people clean the bulk of the home on Eco and Mid and save Max for the doormat. Used that way, one charge covers a typical family home.
Still not sure?
Use it as your only vacuum for 60 days. If it does not suit your home, send it back for a refund.

Three ways to a clean house
Same goal, very different bills over the next few years.
A premium big-name cordless
Brilliant on day one. Then you live with a small bin, a short Max runtime and the cost of a new battery once the warranty ends.
A budget stick from a marketplace
Cheap to buy, but short runtimes, few spare parts and nobody to call when it stops working.
Polaro V18
45 kPa, up to 60 minutes, a 1.5-litre bin, a colour screen and every tool in the box. Five-year warranty, 60 days to try it and free tracked UK delivery.

Made for busy, lived-in homes
An honest look at who will love it, and who should buy something else.
Polaro V18 suits you if
- You want the whole home done on one charge
- You have a mix of carpet, laminate, tiles and stairs
- You have pets or long hair in the household
- You would rather empty the bin once than three times

- You want a robot that cleans while you are out
- You need a wet-and-dry vacuum for spills
- You want app control: Polaro keeps it simple with a screen

Still deciding?
How long does the battery last?
Up to 60 minutes on Eco, around 35 minutes on Mid and around 25 minutes on Max. Most people clean the bulk of the house on Eco and Mid, which is why one charge usually covers the whole home.
Is it strong enough for carpet?
Yes. Switch to Mid or Max on carpet and the motorised roller lifts the pile while 45 kPa of suction pulls out the grit underneath. Very deep shag-pile can slow any cordless floor head, so a corded upright is still the better tool for that.
Does it cope with pet hair?
It is built for it. The motorised roller and strong suction lift dog and cat hair from carpets, rugs and sofas, and the LEDs help you spot it on hard floors. The roller brush is removable, and a mini cleaning brush is in the box for clearing any wrapped hair.
How big is the bin, and is it messy to empty?
The bin holds 1.5 litres. Hold it over your kitchen bin and press the release: the dust drops out without you touching it.
Does it stand up on its own?
Yes. Stop wherever you like and it stays upright on its floor head. A wall mount is also in the box if you prefer to hang it by the door.
What does the screen show?
The battery level, the power mode you are in (Eco, Mid, Max or Auto), a blockage alert if something is stuck in the tube, and a reminder when the filter needs cleaning.
What is in the box?
The main body with touchscreen, 1.5-litre bin, removable battery, motorised LED floor brush, roller brush, telescopic tube, crevice tool, 2-in-1 brush, wall mount, stainless-steel filter, 2 HEPA and 2 foam filters, mini cleaning brush, UK charger and user manual.
How do delivery, returns and the warranty work?
Delivery is free and tracked, express in 3–4 days anywhere in the UK. You have 60 days to try it and return it for a refund, and the vacuum is covered by a five-year warranty from the day it arrives.
The whole home on one charge. Or your money back.
No cord to wrestle, no emptying the bin halfway round, no hauling the big one up the stairs. The Polaro V18 does the house, then goes back on the wall.
