Redkey F10 PRO: The most powerful, affordable vacuum cleaner with a convenient design at a great price

The latest new product to review is the Redkey F10 Pro cordless stick vacuum. Priced at under $200, this device boasts increased suction power of up to 28,000 Pa, convenient wall-mounted charging, a foldable extension wand for easy access under furniture, and five power modes, including a dedicated automatic mode. Below, I'll thoroughly test the Redkey F10 Pro, highlight its pros and cons, and then share my personal opinion. Let's get started!

Equipment

As always, we'll start our review with the package contents. The vacuum cleaner arrived in this branded box:

It contains the main unit with a removable battery, an extension tube, a main floor nozzle, a nozzle with sliding bristles, a crevice nozzle, a wall holder with mounting hardware, a spare 13th generation HEPA filter, a power adapter, and an operating manual in Russian.

Everything's fine in principle, but I personally miss a motorized brush attachment for cleaning upholstery. At this price point, they should have included one.

Appearance

Now let's take a look at the Redkey F10 Pro's design. I'll point out right away that its design differs from the Redkey F10 only in color. But there's an important update. According to the manufacturer, engineers have improved the design of the bendable hinge. It's now more reliable than its predecessor.

The main unit is black. The heart of the vacuum cleaner is a 400-watt motor, which delivers suction power of up to 28,000 Pa. I liked the darkened dust container, which makes it harder to see debris inside.

The battery is conveniently removable. It charges on a wall mount using terminals, and a charger can also be connected manually to the appropriate port. Battery status indicators are also located there.

The vacuum cleaner is turned on by pressing the button under your thumb. The display is located on top, with the control buttons next to it. It's a bit inconvenient that you have to use your other hand to switch modes. Interestingly, they've implemented five power modes and an additional automatic mode. It's also convenient that the battery charge is displayed as numbers rather than as divisions.

A HEPA filter is located at the end, with another HEPA filter located on top. The 600 ml dust container is emptied by pressing a button that opens the bottom cover. Fortunately, it's also completely removable. A cyclone with a mesh filter is located inside the flask. A total of four filtration stages.

The main brush features a swivel joint, cleaning area illumination, grooves for passing large debris, and a versatile roller with short bristles. The roller is conveniently removed at the press of a button. This type of roller has proven itself effective on both hard surfaces and carpets. There is no comb behind the turbo brush.

Speaking of additional attachments, there are two. The retractable bristle attachment is the standard design. The crevice tool, however, is worth a closer look.

It features a retractable mechanism that extends the nozzle almost twice its length. This is a great solution, allowing even short people to reach cobwebs on the ceiling or other hard-to-reach places.

I'll also highlight the extension wand with a folding elbow. Press the button, and the wand bends 90 degrees, allowing you to vacuum under furniture without having to bend down.

The wall-mounted holder deserves special attention. It conveniently stores the upright vacuum cleaner and its two attachments, and, more importantly, it features wireless battery charging via the clamps on the holder.

A very convenient solution, which I consider one of the most important parameters when choosing a vertical vacuum cleaner!

All the main pros and cons of the design will be voiced during the summary, and we'll move on!

Technical specifications

The main characteristics of the Redkey F10 Pro, as stated by the manufacturer, are displayed on the screen:

• Power consumption: 400 W.
• Suction power: up to 28,000 Pa.
• Li-Ion battery 2500 mAh.
• Operating time up to 60 min.
• Dust collector: 600 ml.
• Noise level 73-81 dB.
• Weight when fully assembled: 3.24 kg.

I personally measured the vacuum cleaner's noise level. It ranges from 73 to 81 dB, depending on the selected mode. I consider it slightly loud.

The main unit weighs 1,847 grams, the extension tube weighs 475 grams, and the main floor nozzle weighs 915 grams. The fully assembled vacuum weighs 3,237 grams. It's heavier than most similar vacuums, which is important to consider.

Testing

A detailed video review of the Redkey F10 Pro, including all tests, has already been prepared and published on the channel:

Opening hours

And finally, let's move on to the tests. First, let's check the Redkey F10 Pro's battery life at maximum power with the main floor nozzle attached. It managed 7 minutes and 56 seconds of runtime, which isn't a great result. The vacuum cleaner's battery life is shorter than similar models, as the standard runtime for cordless vacuums is 10-12 minutes.

However, it's fair to note that there are five power levels, and the medium suction power, which is more than sufficient for standard cleaning, will increase the runtime. Furthermore, the vacuum cleaner is very reasonably priced for its power, and if the manufacturer had installed a more powerful battery, the price would have also increased, exceeding $200.

Suction power

In terms of suction power, the vacuum cleaner was able to remove almost all debris from crevices up to 10 mm deep and partially from crevices up to 16 mm on the first power level. Awesome results! On the second level, it perfectly cleaned a 10 mm deep stand, easily reached crevices up to 20 mm deep, and even partially cleaned a 25 mm deep crevice. On the third level, it partially cleaned a 30 mm crevice, and on the fourth level, it completely cleaned a maximum crevice of 35 mm.

So the power is actually very high, at the level of premium models, and for household conditions, levels 2-3 will be more than enough for you.

Collecting debris on laminate flooring

Now let's test how well the vacuum cleaner picks up debris from the floor. I scattered various types of debris on the laminate flooring: hair, fur, grains, cat litter pellets, and other small household debris. The Redkey F10 Pro cleaned the stand thoroughly, and had no issues picking up larger debris or cleaning corners. It cleaned both outer and inner corners well. Bravo!

Carpet cleaning

The vacuum cleaner does a fantastic job of cleaning carpets, including both carpet and medium-pile carpet. This is thanks to its powerful suction and the elastic bristles in the turbo brush, which thoroughly clean the pile.

And here is the condition of the turbo brush after all the tests:

You can see that the bristle inserts slightly wrap around themselves a little bit of fur and hair, so the brush will have to be cleaned manually periodically.

Using additional attachments

It's also worth noting that thanks to the two additional attachments, you can superficially clean upholstery, clean areas where the main attachment can't reach, and even clean the inside of a car, if necessary.

In general, the vacuum cleaner is suitable for different conditions of use.

Cleaning the dust collector

Finally, I'll tell you how to clean the dust bin. Press the button, and all the debris falls out through the bottom. If hair or fur gets stuck in the bin, you can remove the dust bin, remove the filter system, and shake out the remaining contents. It would be a good idea to also buy a brush for cleaning the cyclone so you don't have to touch it with your hands. Otherwise, it's all very convenient!

Personal opinion

The Redkey F10 Pro cordless stick vacuum cleaner was thoroughly reviewed and tested. I'll highlight its pros and cons, then share my thoughts. I liked the following:

1. In reality, the suction power is very high.
2. 6 power modes, including automatic mode, when other vacuum cleaners usually have 2-3.
3. Capable of effectively collecting debris on various surfaces, including medium-pile carpets.
4. A good filtration system based on two 13th generation HEPA filters.
5. Removable dust collector.
6. Removable battery.
7. Folding extension tube.
8. An extended crevice tool allows you to reach even deeper into hard-to-reach areas for cleaning.
9. Convenient storage of attachments and charging of the vacuum cleaner on a wall holder.
10. Illumination of the cleaning area.
11. Availability of warranty and service.

As for the shortcomings, the following comments were identified regarding the vacuum cleaner:

1. The upright vacuum cleaner is heavier than its analogues.
2. There is no turbo brush attachment for cleaning upholstered furniture and mattresses.
3. The noise level is slightly elevated.
4. Short runtime at maximum power. It's fair to note that the manufacturer claims a battery life of 8 to 60 minutes, depending on the selected attachment and power level.
5. There is no vertical parking outside the holder.
6. One-handed operation is not provided. Switching modes requires the use of the other hand.

The bottom line? The bottom line is that we get a very powerful upright vacuum cleaner for under $200. Not many competitors in this price range can boast such suction. And considering its other advantages, I'm confident the Redkey F10 Pro is a good option for certain conditions and requirements. Moreover, most of the criticisms are minor.
