1. Corvan Cordless Vacuum Cleaner & Mop K18
Disclaimer: This is a sponsored product
Before you even get a cordless vacuum cleaner, we want to bring your attention to a cordless vacuum cleaner that is also a mop!
The Corvan Cordless Vacuum Cleaner & Mop K18 has several advantages over the original Corvan cordless vacuum cleaner models (K9 included).
For starters, the K18 can mop and vacuum simultaneously with its electric spin mop head that dispenses water automatically. The set also comes with an elegant charging stand (which the K9 does not have), an impressive 6-stage filtration system (vs the 3-stage filtration system of the K9) and an improved design for emptying the bin.
Furthermore, the K18 is around the same weight as the K9 (1.5kg vs 1.4kg without any accessories) while the Dyson V11 weighs 3kg. Even though the K18 packs roughly the same suction power as the Dyson V11 (201AW for the K18 vs 185AW for Dyson V11).
Note: K18 weighs 1.85kg with the extension rod and crevice tool, 2-in-1 dusting tool or bed vacuuming tool. And it weighs 2.35kg together with the motorized floor brush and extension rod
The Corvan K18 is twice as powerful as the K9 (201AW vs 115AW) and at 50 minutes, has a slightly longer runtime than the K9 while the charging time is around the same (3.5 to 4.5 hours vs K9’s 3-4 hours).
Note: However, the swappable design of the battery pack means that you can buy an additional battery to double the runtime to 100 minutes!
You might note that the bin capacity of the K18 is slightly more than the K9 (800ml vs 600ml) too.
As far as appearances go, the Corvan K18 leaves behind the minimalist appearance of the K9 in favor of a striking design that looks a little closer to Dyson’s.
The Corvan Cordless Vacuum Cleaner & Mop K18 is twice the price of the Corvan cordless vacuum cleaner K9 but it will save you time since it can do everything that the K9 can do, on top of mopping and vacuuming simultaneously!
With the build quality we observed, we think the K18 stretches the value of your money better if you were looking at the Dyson V11 Absolute which costs RM3,000+!

2. Dyson V11 Absolute
Crossing clean over the RM3,500 mark, is this the best cordless vacuum cleaner in Malaysia? Maybe yes, if you’ve never tried a Dyson cordless vacuum cleaner before!
Pet owners in particular, fully appreciate the power of this machine! Because it picks up so much, you’ll probably have to empty the small bin a few times!
True, it’s quiet and very powerful with a HEPA filtration system. And it can reach most usually inaccessible areas! Despite that, you cannot ignore that price and the weight!
- Run Time: 60 minutes
- Charging Time: 4.5 hours
- Bin Size: 0.54 L
- Filtration System: Fully-sealed filtration system (HEPA)
- Weight: 2.97 kg
- Dimensions: 1285 x 261 x 249mm

- Excels at carpet cleaning (Boost mode)
- Great for removing dust mites from mattresses
Cons:
- Most expensive in the market
- Very heavy the longer you use it
- Small dust bin capacity
- Have to hold down the trigger as you use it
- Long charging time
3. Dreame R10 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
RM800 might seem a lot for a cordless vacuum cleaner. Especially when you can get the same suction strength and similar accessories (crevice tool, wide brush, multi-surface floor brush with LED lights, motorized mini-brush, etc) for less.
But the Dreame R10 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is undeniably a looker. And we can personally attest that the build quality (including the accessories) befits the price.
One unique feature of the Dreame R10 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is the silicone extension that is part of the Flexible Combination Tool. We do find it handy for some situations where a stiff brush will not work.
Moreover, the Dreame R10 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has a great suction strength as well. See how we use the Dreame R10 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner in our full review.
Pros:
- Excellent build quality
- Looks nice in the house
- More than adequate suction strength
- Good maneuverability (especially the Multi-surface Brush and Flexible Combination Tool)
- Accessories are also well-made
- Appealing output noise (not loud or whiny)
- Easy to maintain (most of the key components are removable and washable)
- Battery can be replaced
- Long run time (60 minutes) for a charge time of 3.5 hours
Cons:
- Not the lightest or most value-for-money on the market
- Spare batteries are not readily available on the market
- Tall and heavy for petite users
4. Dyson Cyclone V10 Absolute
Why did we bother including this? For starters, it’s lighter than the Dyson V11. And with considerable suction power (150AW) too! Still higher than the majority of cordless vacuum cleaners in Malaysia!
According to users, the build quality is great. But it just makes it into the bearable threshold of human hearing (<85dB). Battery lasts quite long unless you turn on the max mode!
Verdict:
A cheaper and lighter (by ~0.4kg) alternative to the Dyson V11 Absolute. By cheaper, we mean ~RM700 to RM1,000! Another selling point is the fluffy head for hardwood floors!
- Run Time: 60 minutes
- Charging Time: 3.5 hours
- Bin Size: 0.54 L
- Filtration System: Fully-sealed filtration system
- Weight: 2.5 kg
- Dimensions: 1241 x 241 x 248 mm
- Comes with: Quick-release attachments (e.g. crevice tool, mini soft dusting brush, docking station, soft roller head, etc)
- Loudness: 75 dB
- Suction Power: 150 AW
- Warranty: 2 years
- Price: ~RM2,999
Pros:
- High suction power (~40AW less than the Dyson V11 Absolute)
- Long run time (~1 hour)
- Dyson v10 absolute comes with 2 cleaner heads and 4 extra tools
- Can convert into a handheld vacuum cleaner
- Works on many surfaces (including carpets)
Cons:
- Expensive
- Doesn’t have that nifty digital screen that the V11 has
- Does not automatically switch modes (unlike the V11)
- Very short running time on max mode
- Dust bin takes some effort to clear
5. Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart has about the same specifications as the former Airbot Hypersonics. With both models, you get 1 year warranty, 27kPa or 140AW suction strength and ~50 minute run time (5 minutes shorter for the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart).
It takes slight less time to charge up the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart than the Airbot Hypersonics too (4 hours vs 4.5 hours).
On max mode (there are 3 speed settings), the battery lasts for approximately 15 minutes. This is the same for the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart and the Airbot Hypersonics.
The dedicated dust mite brush is an additional purchase (~RM100) for the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart. But instead of the RM600 price tag of the Airbot, the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart than the Airport Hypersonics comes in at a mid-range price point of RM400.
Around the price point of RM400, the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart has the higher suction strength of a similar priced competitor, the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max (27kPa vs 19kPa).
Both the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max and Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart has similar specifications otherwise. Their noise level is around 70dB with substantial bin capacity (0.8L for the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart and 1L for the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max).
However, the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max comes with 2 years’ warranty instead of 1 year like the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart. And the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max comes with a motorized dust mite brush. Unlike the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart.
Between the two models, the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart is lighter than the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max (1.5kg vs 1.7kg).
So, if your budget is under RM500, and you’d like a powerful but lightweight cordless vacuum cleaner, go for the Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart. If value-for-money is more worth it to you, go for the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max.
- Run Time: 15 – 45 minutes
- Charging Time: 4 hours
- Bin Size: 0.8 L
- Filtration System: HEPA Filter
- Weight: 1.5 kg
- Dimensions: 710 x 160 x 285 mm
- Loudness: ~70 dBA
- Suction Power: 27 kPa / 140AW
- Warranty: 12 months
Pros:
- Lightweight (1.5kg)
- Powerful suction
- Good runtime to charge ratio
- Spare parts are available from the official store (HEPA filter, dust cap, fluffy brush and dust mite brush)
Cons:
- Price doesn’t include the motorized dust mite head attachment
- Short warranty period (1 year)

6. Dibea F20 MAX Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
Boasting a short charging time, the Dibea F20 MAX Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is an improvement on the former D18 model. But noisier!
It has adequate suction power – users find it strong enough to suck out hair, dust, and fur from carpets! You just have to get used to the weight!
Much cheaper but comparable to the (and maybe even better than) Dyson V8! This cordless vacuum does not come with dust mite brush. But you can buy the mite removal brush separately.
- Run Time: 20 – 55 minutes (Eco mode)
- Charging Time: 2 – 3 hours
- Bin Size: 0.5 L
- Filtration System: multi-stage cyclone and hand washable cotton filter
- Weight: 2.5 kg
- Dimensions: 1172 x 256 x 217 mm
- Comes with: Brush tool, crevice tool, wall mount
- Loudness: 75 dB
- Suction Power: 25 kPa
- Warranty: 6 months – 1 year
- Price: RM698
Pros:
- Flexible head with swivel joint
- Has LED lights
- Higher build quality compared to Airbot vacuum cleaners
- Converts to hand handheld
- Power display at the back of the handle – you can see how much power you have left! And save the remaining power with the handy Eco mode!
Cons:
- Small bin capacity
- Short warranty
- No HEPA grade filter
- Slightly noisy
- Heavy for elders
7. TINECO A11 Hero Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
A11 Hero is both fairly powerful and quiet with its brushless motor. The number of included accessories can be overwhelming. But not if you’re keen on getting the most out of this vacuum!
You don’t have to keep your finger on the trigger constantly! And it’s surprisingly better on carpets than hard floors!
As far as stick vacuum cleaners go, the A11 Hero by Tineco is value for money. Coming with a storage unit and accessories! With better-than-average build quality!
Note: There’s a pre-filter cleaning tool, hair cleaning tool, and one extra filter! Something you won’t get with other brands!
- Run Time: Up to 40 minutes
- Charging Time: 3.5 hours
- Bin Size: 0.6 L
- Filtration System: Fully sealed 4-stage filtration system
- Weight: 2.5 kg
- Dimensions: 111 x 264 x 284 mm
- Comes with: Soft roller head with LED light, a charging base, maintenance tools, etc
- Loudness: ≤ 71 dB
- Suction Power: 120 W
- Warranty: 2 years
- Price: RM1,199
Pros:
- Huge selection of accessories
- Relatively large dust bin
- Run time is sufficient (~40 minutes at lowest setting)
- Handheld conversion
- Has a max mode out of 3 available modes
- Can be wall-mounted
- LED lights for the floor brush
- Very effortless to empty the bin
Cons:
- Past the RM1,000 mark
- Heavy
- Battery lasts 10 minutes on max mode
- Charging base is large but you can store parts in it although not all
- Cannot lay completely flat (180 degrees)
8. PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max
PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max replaces the Bossman Kaden PRO K3. Apart from the name, there are few significant changes between the two models.
Both come with 2 years warranty and pack 19kPa worth of suction power. The maximum noise level and runtime remains as 72dB and 45 minutes respectively (on the lowest setting). It takes 4 to 5 hours to charge the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max.
But one clear improvement that the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max brings with it (over the Bossman Kaden PRO K3) is a HEPA filter.
The Bossman Kaden PRO K3 uses sponges instead of a HEPA filter (dust does escape when you turn on/off the vacuum).
In any case you do get great value with the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max. And this is why it’s worth considering. It comes with many accessories. Most importantly, it comes with a motorized dust mite attachment.
And the main floor brush has a light at the end of it so you can see dust clearly. So, if you think you can make full use of those accessories, you might want to pick up the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max as your daily cleaning companion!
If you want to see a comparison between the PerySmith Kaden Series Pro K3 Max and the similarly priced Airbot Hypersonics Pro Smart, refer to our description for the latter in this same post.
- Run Time: Up to 45 minutes
- Charging Time: 4-5 hours
- Bin Size: 1L
- Weight: 1.7 kg (Main Unit only)
- Loudness: 72 dB
- Suction Power: 19kPa
- Warranty: 2 years
Pros:
- Reasonably lightweight (just not light enough for elders)
- Able to suck up fine dust
- Reasonably priced since it comes with many accessories
- Don’t have to hold down the trigger to vacuum
- Components are easy to assemble and disassemble (very similar to the Corvan K9)
- Battery is removable (You can charge the battery on its own, without the head)
- Bin opens easily
- Accessories include motorized dust mite brush
- Uses a HEPA filter
Cons:
- Suction is not strong enough to pick up bigger debris (e.g. crumbs and rice)
- No flexible hose
- Noisy at the maximum suction level
- Can’t stand on its own
- Manual isn’t clear on filter removal
- Build quality could be better
9. Corvan Cordless Vacuum Cleaner K6
Corvan’s Cordless Vacuum Cleaner K6 rocks a bolder color choice than the previous K9. But the K6 has a few new advantages over the Corvan Cordless Vacuum K9:
Firstly, it’s almost half the price. Secondly, the main body is slightly lighter by 0.2kg and can stand on its own! The innovative clip helps hold all the accessories in one place too.
Despite being lighter, the K6 can hold more dust than the K9 (0.8L vs 0.6L). But this is not so major since we hardly ever fill up the container of the K9.
Note: It is extremely easy to empty out the dust container
However, the suction power of K6 is a little less (though still more than enough for daily cleaning) at 90AW vs 115AW of the K9.
And there’s no dedicated mattress/ dust mite brush as with the K9. Or the unique anti-tangle design that features on the K9.
Both models have LED lights for the motorized floor brush (which we cannot live without now!).
And just like the K9, the K6 requires about 4 hours to fully charge. After which, you can use it for 40 minutes straight!
Hence, we’d recommend the Corvan Cordless Vacuum Cleaner K6 if the Corvan Cordless Vacuum K9 exceeds your budget. And if none of your household has long hair.
Also, we’d recommend Corvan as a brand in general, because their service is extremely reliable and responsive!
- Run Time: Up to 40 minutes
- Charging Time: 3-4 hours
- Bin Size: 0.8L
- Filtration System: 3-stage Double HEPA filtration with a stainless steel pre-filter
- Weight: 1.2 kg (Main Unit only)
- Loudness: 72 dB
- Suction Power: 90AW
- Warranty: 1 year
- Price: ~RM398
Pros:
- Excellent service (including after sales)
- Stands on its own
- Neat built-in storage for accessories
- 5 years warranty for the motor
- Comes with a 2-in-1 dusting tool and crevice tool
- Lightweight enough for elderly folk
- Low profile (11.8cm) to fit under furniture
- HEPA filter is washable and replaceable
- Normal mode has strong suction
Cons:
- No anti-tangle brush
- No flexible hose
- Not very effective on thick carpets
10. PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20
For less than RM200, we pick PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 for the best budget and lightweight cordless vacuum in Malaysia.
It is an appealing choice because of the longer warranty period. The PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 has 2 years’ warranty on it. And this is surprising at this price point as there are other cordless vacuums double the price that only have 1 year of warranty.
Note: The 2-year warranty doesn’t cover accessories
Furthermore, the suction strength of the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is comparable to the Airbot iRoom 2.0 (18kPa vs 19kPa). The latter costs ~RM280.
However, the Airbot iRoom 2.0 is quieter than the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 (60 vs 70dBa at max mode).
The brush attachment of the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is not as firm as we would like either. It’s not great for fluffy carpets.
But the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is lighter than the Airbot iRoom 2.0 (1.3kg vs 1.6kg).
In fact, the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is the lightest cordless vacuum cleaner in this list. Lighter even than the Airbot Supersonics 3.0 Cyclone Cordless Portable Car Vacuum Cleaner too (1.4kg).
And hence, the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is a no-brainer if you’re on the hunt for the lightest possible cordless vacuum cleaner.
Plus, if you’re not looking to spend more than RM300 on a cordless vacuum cleaner, the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is good for daily cleaning (i.e., dust) and small homes. Since the maximum run time is 30 minutes.
For long term use, we’d look elsewhere though as the battery of the PerySmith Cordless Vacuum Cleaner Xtreme Series XS20 is not replaceable.
- Run Time: Up to 30 minutes
- Charging Time: 4 hours
- Bin Size: 0.8L
- Weight: 1.3 kg (Handheld)
- Loudness: 70 dB
- Suction Power: 18kPa
- Warranty: 2 years
Pros:
- Very affordable with 2 year warranty
- Decent suction strength (not enough for sand or larger particles)
- Emptying out the dust container is straightforward
- Very light (1.3kg) with easy handling
- With multi-stage HEPA filtration
- Convenient for cleaning a car
Cons:
- Not quiet (But noise level is acceptable)
- Brush is not suitable for cleaning carpets (not stiff enough)
- Length of rod is not adjustable
- Battery is not replaceable
- No battery life indicator
Types Of Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
Cordless vacuum cleaners can branch further into the following types:
- Upright vacuum cleaners – Bigger and usually more powerful
- Stick vacuum cleaners – Handheld with a slim storage container at the other end (handle)
- Cylinder vacuum cleaners – Dust container on wheels connected to a long flexible hose
How To Buy The Best Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
A cordless vacuum cleaner needs to be comfortable to use!
It’s supposed to lighten your household chores after all! And not be a burden in the process!
But what else should you look for?
1. Price/Budget
The most reliable cordless vacuum cleaners (and the convenience they offer) come at higher prices that you would expect.
Either way, you’re looking to spend in the range of RM350 to RM4,000 for one of these!
Some are double the price of a regular vacuum cleaner!
2. Features To Look For
- Convertible to a handheld vacuum
- Long battery life (i.e. runtime)
- Short charging time
- Big dust capacity
- LED lights at the head so you can see what’s under your sofa/bed
- Lightweight
- Accessories for different situations (i.e. dust mite brush, narrow nozzle, etc)
- Flat head profile to reach under furniture
- Bagless/ with bag – most are now bagless
3. Suction Power
If your goal is to just eliminate dust bunnies and the occasional strands of hair, then you don’t really need a powerful machine!
Which tend to be louder, consume more power, and heat up faster!
For allergy sufferers, do pay extra attention to the next item!
4. Filtration System
Behind the same logic for air purifiers:
Vacuums should have a filtration system to prevent dust that they suck in from escaping out again through the vents! Otherwise, what’s the point?
The best filtration systems are high grade HEPA filters. Bonus if you can find one that’s removable and washable!
Conclusion
After Dyson’s success, new cordless vacuum cleaners have appeared in the market. With similar features and performance! The current limitation is the weight and battery run time (max 60 minutes)!
They’re also certainly not cheap! But you don’t know what you are missing until you try one of the best cordless vacuum cleaners in Malaysia!
