Wyze Cordless Vacuum S

$130 and honest about runtime — but its 'HEPA' filter is rated 95%, not 99.97%.

$129.99

Overall score 5.9/10

Pros

  • + $129.99 for a removable battery, a motorised head and a published three-mode runtime table
  • + 4.9 lb assembled — light enough to carry upstairs one-handed, and the handheld half is 2.8 lb
  • + Publishes suction per mode as well as runtime per mode, which most budget brands avoid
  • + A second motor in the brush head rather than a passive roller

Cons

  • The 'HEPA filter' is rated at 95% of sub-0.3-micron particles. Real HEPA means 99.97%. This is not an allergy vacuum whatever the listing says
  • No wall mount, no dock, no stand — it ships with a bare AC charger and nowhere to put it
  • 10 minutes in Turbo, and Wyze will not say whether that is with the floor head running
  • Wyze's own page gives two different bin capacities, which does not inspire confidence in the rest of the sheet

Wyze Cordless Vacuum S review: what the specs say

$130 and honest about runtime — but its 'HEPA' filter is rated 95%, not 99.97%. At $129.99, Wyze's 2024 model sits among the cheapest we cover — the cordless Vacuums we compare run from $129.99 to $1,199. It scores 5.9/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Handling & Ergonomics at 9.0/10 — weight, balance, whether power is a push-button or a trigger you must hold, and how it stores. The weakest is Filtration & Sealing at 3.5/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: the 'HEPA filter' is rated at 95% of sub-0.3-micron particles. Real HEPA means 99.97%. This is not an allergy vacuum whatever the listing says; and no wall mount, no dock, no stand — it ships with a bare AC charger and nowhere to put it. Every specification on this page comes from Wyze's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.

Full Specifications

Machine TypeDry cordless stick vacuum, converts to handheld
Suction (as published)Sources conflict on units: Wyze quotes 20,000 Pa in Turbo (9,000 Medium, 6,000 Eco) and separately claims '100 AW'. Pa is sealed suction measured at a blocked inlet, not work done at the head, and 100 AW alongside 20,000 Pa is not a figure Wyze substantiates
Runtime, Eco / Headline40 min
Runtime, Max Power10 min
What the Runtime Claim Actually MeansWyze publishes all three modes — 40 minutes Eco, 23 Medium, 10 Turbo — but does not state whether the powered floor head is fitted for any of them
Removable BatteryYes — removable 6-cell pack (2,000 mAh x 6, 21.6 V DC), 4-6 hours to charge
Spare BatteryNot published by the manufacturer
Dock / Wall MountNeither. An AC charger only — no wall mount, no dock, no stand in the box
Filtration3-stage with a filter Wyze calls HEPA but rates at '95% of particles under 0.3 micron'. Genuine HEPA is 99.97% at 0.3 micron. No sealed-system claim
Bin / Tank CapacitySources conflict: Wyze's own product page gives 0.55 L in one place and 0.7 L in another
Weight4.9 lbs
Filters, Consumables & Self-CleanWashable filter. Wyze publishes no replacement schedule, no filter price and no brush-roll availability
ConnectivityOn-board controls only, No app despite the Wyze name
