Polaris vacuum cleaner review

Polaris vacuum cleaners are well known to the Russian consumer and are present on domestic counters in a wide range. These units enjoy well-deserved popularity and act as a worthy alternative to expensive European models.

Polaris vacuum cleaners are manufactured at the enterprises of the company of the same name, which has branches in four countries of the world: China (the birthplace of the brand), Israel, Russia and Italy. Despite its Chinese origin, this technique is considered one of the most reliable and durable, in no way inferior in quality to world renowned counterparts. The company owns a powerful production base and uses unique technical solutions and patented innovative technologies in the manufacture of vacuum cleaners.

The company produces units of four types, which greatly facilitates the choice and allows you to purchase a model of any functionality and cost.

• Robot vacuum cleaners are mobile autonomous disc-shaped devices capable of cleaning premises without the presence of an operator. The models are equipped with a touch-screen navigation system and a variety of infrared and ultrasonic sensors, allowing the unit to easily avoid obstacles and not fall off steps. Despite their compact size, the robots are distinguished by high suction power and an effective filtration system, which allows them to deal with rather strong contaminants. Moreover, the units are equipped with special detectors that independently determine the nature and intensity of contamination, due to which the devices independently choose the cleaning mode and more efficiently consume battery energy.

• Portable vacuum cleaners are lightweight functional devices designed for quick cleaning of small dirt, cleaning car interiors and removing dust in hard-to-reach places.

• Cyclonic models are the most numerous group of devices and are represented by units of different power and functionality. A distinctive feature of their design is the absence of a dust collection bag, the role of which is played by a storage tank. The principle of operation of such vacuum cleaners is quite simple and consists in the following: thanks to a powerful turbine, dust and small mechanical debris are sucked into the hose and moved to the dust collector. Then, separators are put into operation, creating vortex flows and, using centrifugal force, throwing debris to the walls of the accumulator.

• Dust Collector Models, unlike previous samples, are equipped with removable bags for collecting dust and debris and suggest their regular emptying or replacement. These units are equipped with a telescopic handle and a large number of additional attachments for cleaning both hard and soft surfaces. The advantages of bag vacuum cleaners include low cost and fairly good performance.
