These products are hand-picked by our team to help make shopping easier. We may receive payments from third parties for sharing this content and when you purchase through links in this article. Product prices and offer details are not assured, and should be confirmed independently with the retailer. Learn more Touted as the ' world's most powerful cordless stick vacuum ', the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra might just be the suckiest appliance on the market. And as someone whose floors are constantly riddled with dog hair (as well as my own), I couldn't have been more excited to put it to the test. Having tested a variety of vacuum cleaners in my job, I've learned that strong suction power isn't all it's cracked up to be and there's definitely more to a good buy than big numbers. Samsung's new cordless stick vac packs long battery life, auto empty, a bunch of cleaner heads and accessories and a stylish and surprisingly slim design. And for anyone who's chronically attached to their phone, the vacuum is compatible with the SmartThings app so the appliance can actually let you know when you're getting a phone call or text message. Check out our first impressions of Samsung's latest cordless stick vacuum cleaner below. 30-SECOND REVIEW Tried and Tested by Tahnee-Jae Lopez-Vito, Senior Shopping Writer If I could describe the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra in one word, it would definitely be efficient. While it comes with a higher price tag and a few 'non-essential' bells and whistles, it cleans different types of gross dry and wet messes exceptionally well, particularly on hard floors, and doesn't require much effort to use, pick up dirt and maintain. The stick vac also lets you customise the gadget in a variety of ways, and everything is easy to assemble and take apart. HOW WE TESTED THE SAMSUNG BESPOKE AI JET ULTRA STICK VACUUM At checkout, it's our mission to help you make informed shopping decisions. To ensure you buy the right product at the best price, we rigorously test products so you don't have to. As well as sorting through mountains of consumer reviews, product manuals and conducting thorough product research, our team of expert writers puts each product we review through a series of hands-on tests to ensure we give you honest feedback about its performance and whether it's worth your hard-earned money. DESIGN Samsung's AI Jet Ultra Stick Vacuum wins the beauty crown with its stylish and sleek design, while the slim build makes it a decent contender for shoppers wanting something small-space friendly. It's also self standing so you don't need to mount the appliance to the wall, and the cradle is a convenient fix for the accessories. Aside from the all-in-one charging dock and auto-empty station, the Samsung stick vacuum includes: • Active dual brush • Slim LED brush+ • Pet tool+ • Combination and long reach crevice tool • Spray spinning sweeper For our particularly tall readers, the pole can be extended just like the crevice tool. The box also includes antibacterial reusable pads and disposable wet pads for the sweeper, plus three dust bags. I was mostly excited to try the flex tool, which essentially works like an extra arm that can bend up to 90 degrees to help give you 'better aim'. I really like how it can be used with different cleaner heads but honestly it felt flimsy and made the vacuum harder to control. If having a bendy stick vacuum is on top of your list, our checkout editor Melody raved about the flexibility of Shark's PowerDetect Clean & Empty Vacuum. (It similarly has an auto-empty function, decent battery life and retails for $700 cheaper.) The two 'main cleaner' heads – aka the active dual brush and slim LED brush+ — are the only tools compatible with the AI mode and each work incredibly well. I'm an especially big fan of using the slim LED brush+ to light up the monsters under the bed, a task which surely makes vacuuming as one of the most-hated chores. Clean Station I absolutely love how the HEPA vacuum boasts a self-empty feature, similar to many robot vacuum cleaners and new premium cordless vacuum cleaners. It's particularly fantastic if you want to minimise your exposure to dust. The dust bag is easy to change and fits up to two litres of debris. When it's time to repurchase, Samsung usually offers five disposable bags which can last a while even if you vacuum daily. The dustbin can be manually emptied, but I found the debris got so tightly packed that I had to dig deep into the container. It's much easier to leave the cleaning to the self emptying station, especially if you're like me and want to prevent airborne dust particles triggering any allergies. BATTERY LIFE The Bespoke Jet AI Ultra offers up to 100 minutes of cordless cleaning, which is great compared to many other options on the market – including the popular Dyson Gen5detect Absolute which retails at a similar price point ($1549 RRP) and lasts up to 70 minutes. If you want to sneak in extra runtime, this stick vacuum has a detachable battery design which lets you swap in another fully charged pack (sold separately, of course). Since it's already quite powerful on the lower settings, I could get away with cleaning all the rooms in one go and have enough power leftover to go over my desk and any awkward spots without having to recharge. HOW WELL DOES THE SAMSUNG VACUUM CLEAN? To give the AI-powered stick vac a run for its money, I opened Pandora's box (aka a gross and decently filled dust bag from my robot vacuum). And it's fair to say I immediately nerded out. I was surprised at how powerful the lowest setting ended up being, and how I didn't need to ramp up to a higher mode when dealing with the meatiest dust balls. If it wasn't a loan unit shared by a long list of tech reviewers, I could've vacuumed my bed with the pet tool+ at the end of a deep clean and had battery to spare. Although I did test it out on my couch and the handheld vac picked up the small pet hairs pretty easily. Samsung's new stick vacuum also introduces cleaning mode 2.0 to help avoid wasting unnecessary energy. It works similar to the auto mode on other cordless units but rather than automatically adjusting the settings simply based on whether it's on carpet or not, or how dirty the surface is, the Bespoke Jet AI Ultra changes the power level and brush speed depending on the environment (including if it's against a wall corner, on short or long pile carpet, or even picked off the ground and not being used at a particular moment). It's worth mentioning you also do need to register the stick vac on Samsung's SmartThings App to activate the new and improved AI features (plus any future updates). I actually didn't find it that much more useful than a regular auto setting, and there are mixed reviews online where people have had some trouble on carpet. When it comes to washing floors, the spray spinning sweeper is a nice little alternative to the traditional mop. It lets you control when the appliance releases water, which makes it much more easier to control how wet the surface gets compared to some other wet dry vacuums. In saying that, I prefer this tool for refreshing tiles and hardwood rather than as a complete replacement of a mop and bucket. Otherwise, you will need to make sure you're washing the pads after every clean (or repurchasing new packs if you prefer the disposable option) to prevent bacteria and mould making a new home under your vacuum. The built-in water tank also fits up to 150ml water before it needs to be refilled, which is a significantly smaller capacity to many cordless wet dry vacuums and robot vacuums. HOW MUCH IS THE SAMSUNG BESPOKE AI JET ULTRA IN AUSTRALIA? The Bespoke AI Jet Ultra retails for $1699 and is available from Samsung's online store and the usual leading retailers such as The Good Guys and Appliances Online. IS THE SAMSUNG BESPOKE AI JET ULTRA WORTH BUYING? Given the fact many brands are charging a small fortune for home appliances, I love how this vacuum cleaner comes with a variety of easily adjustable attachments to better tailor each clean. There's no trigger button to leave my hands feeling tired after a long cleaning session, and all the controls and attachments are super easy to use. Unlike some other vacuums I've tried, the Bespoke AI Jet Ultra does a great job of effortlessly picking up different types of debris without having to go over the same mess multiple times. The mop attachment doesn't over saturate the floors too much, either. Plus, you have total control of how much water is released – something which I wish was more common in wet dry vacuums. On the downside, the unit is pricey and most of the AI features don't add that much to what other vacuums pretty much already do. But it still is a great two-in-one vacuum and mop, especially if you're interested in investing in a self emptying model. *Product has been loaned by Samsung for a 100 per cent independent, honest review.
