Samsung – Jet™ 75 Complete Cordless Stick Vacuum with Long-Lasting Battery – ChroMetal with Teal Silver Filter

Samsung’s Jet 75 Cordless Stick Vacuum is a versatile and portable cordless vacuum. The battery life using the vacuum with an Action roller is about 20 minutes on MID and only 9 on Max. While the suction is no match for a corded vacuum it does an ok job picking up dust and debris on hard wood floors. Due to the short battery life on Max the vacuum is only good for quick pick-ups on carpeting. The vacuum only weighs 6 pounds but those pounds are fully supported by your hand grip. Some may find the Dustbin and filtering components difficult to to clean and use. (see photo)
Pros: Versatile, easy to maneuver, well designed and solidly built, HEPA filtering, vacuum recharges in the wall mount and can also charge just the battery, Mid level suction is good enough for most jobs
Cons: Short battery life on Max, Less convenient dustbin assembly, small rollers on the power brushes, no carpet height adjustment, cannot turn off rotating brush in the Action heads,
Set up: The vacuum comes with a rather thick manual and it covers the basics like showing the various components, installing the wall mount, attaching the parts and maintaining the vacuum. All the components have a solid quick connect feature and are easily separated when needed. Samsung did a nice job designing these so that they are easy to use and solid in their build. You basically connect whatever components are needed to the main vacuum assembly and you are ready to go. The battery can be charged either in the vacuum or outside of the vacuum using the same charger assembly provided. This is helpful because if you pick up a second battery one can be charging in the charger while the other is being used in the vacuum.
Operation: The vacuum has a small indicator display that shows the status of the vacuum as well as any error warning. If you press the Power button the display will show the suction level the vacuum is in. By pressing the plus or minus button you can switch vacuum levels from Min to Mid to Max. The battery has LEDs on the side to indicate the battery charge level. Most of the time we run the vacuum for our hard wood floor on Mid and the battery last about 20 minutes. The vacuum comes with three powered attachments; the Turbo Action Brush, the Soft Action Brush and the Mini Action Brush. Using any of these three brushes will lessen your vacuum time because they have spinning brushes to agitate the surface. The action heads have very small rollers which makes these heads less agile on carpeting and mixed surfaces (see photo). The action heads cannot be adjusted for carpet height nor can the rotating brush be turned off. All three action heads do have a simple unlock that allows the brush assembly to be removed from its housing for easy cleaning. The vacuum has a 5 layer HEPA filtration system so it does a good job in capturing the dirt and exhausting clean air. There are three filters in the vacuum so emptying the dustbin and the overall maintenance becomes a little more complicated. The dustbin has to be unsnapped and slid off the rails of the vacuum head, then the inner filtering system has to be twisted and removed from the dustbin so you can empty the dustbin. While not overly complicated it is certainly more problematic both in removing and reinserting the dustbin. There is not a simple trap door on the dustbin to empty it like some vacuums have. The vacuum exhaust vents are high on the vacuum, near the handle. (see photo) If you are doing any type of overhead vacuuming be prepared to get a strong breeze in your face.

Samsung’s latest Jet 75cordless stick vacuum hits the mark on most downfalls of other vacuums in the saturated market. First off, I was aesthetically pleased with the look of the vacuum which, for most, is the last thing you might care about in a stick vacuum unless you have it mounted out in the open; we stashed ours on a wall in the laundry room. Out of the box, it was very easy to set up without much reliance on the instruction manual other than inquiring as to how long it would need to charge before the first use and how to clean and maintain it to maximize performance. I love the mount on the wall charging station versus a stand charge station because, for me, it takes up less space and is much sturdier. The wall mount also has clip in storage for a couple attachments.
After set up and initial charge, which did take a few hours, I immediately noticed how balanced and lightweight it was in comparison to the other stick vacuums I have had in the past. Removing the clear cannister to empty the trash was a little bit tricky at first because I was used to other brands but, after reading the instructions to ensure I didn’t break anything, it was quite simple. I could also tell after the first use that it is also very well made and durable. One of the things I like most about the controls is that it is a push button format so you don’t have to pull a trigger to keep it running like other vacuums. The default suction setting on the device is the middle setting so you can toggle down or up which to me makes perfect since and is usually enough power to get most jobs done with the exception of perhaps lightweight, small rugs and dense carpet. The vacuum is quite powerful on the high setting and even at the high setting it is not as loud as the other stick vacuums I have used. We are able to use the vacuum throughout our 3500 square foot house without needing to charge or replace the battery and toggling effortlessly between all three settings depending on the floor type.
The Jet 75 comes with several attachments including one for tight spaces and one with a brush on the end which works great for our vehicles and boats to get the crumbs out. My favorite feature and attachment of the Jet 75 is the hard floor cleaning attachment which is unlike anything I have ever seen or used as I’ve always been used to the spinning brush attachments. The hard floor attachment is a dense brush type fabric, think similar to a soft paint roller, that works wonders on our waterproof laminate flooring which is throughout our entire house; it literally leaves nothing behind. I also love that they included two types of spinning brush attachments so you can switch to use on area rugs, carpet, etc. You can also buy an optional dual spinning wet floor mop style cleaner attachment and back up batteries that are easy to change out, similar to a power tool, if you have a need for a longer running vacuum or in the event you need to replace it eventually. Overall, this has been my favorite vacuum to use for all our needs compared to the ones we have used in the past and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a powerful cordless stick vacuum with optional equipment.

Vacuuming with a light weight, battery-powered Samsung jet 75 stick vacuum is almost joyful. I’d gotten it for the convenience and for cleaning stairs. Surprisingly, I now expect it to be my main vacuum around the house.
The unit comes with multiple power heads designed for either hard floors or carpets. While the turbo brush can be used on hardwood floors, and has a tendency to push pieces of dirt around. The roller brush by comparison sweeps them into the suction while keeping itself relatively clean. This unit does not come with a floor washing attachment. The stick will support it as a separate add-on purchased from Samsung.
Battery powered vacuums are an inherent compromise between suction power and time of use. Samsung gives users that choice by allowing multiple different power levels. On the medium level, which turns on by default, the battery will last 20 to 30 minutes. On high level, the battery winds down in as little as 15 minutes. In both cases, you’ll have to wait four hours for it to recharge. An extra battery is available from Samsung’s web site, but it will set you back ~$150. Given that similar capacity Li-ion batteries for power tools run between $30 – $70, this seems excessive. I’d worry a little bit about long term viability as batteries tend to lose their capacity over time. I have to take off a star based on the price at this time and the impact on long term value.
Medium power is used by default and is sufficient to “sweep” hard surfaces. I used it to pick up small and midsized particles on wood, tile, and linoleum. We have two cats who tend to eat sloppily. They also track their little a little further from the box than I’d prefer. Using the roller brush on medium power was exactly what was needed to keep the space around their food dish and around their litter boxes clean.
High power was needed to give a deeper cleaning on rugs. On high power, the vacuum picked up as well as my corded stick vacuum was working. I could move faster around the room as I didn’t have to worry about where the cord was. I could also clean stairs quickly and easily. While the charge doesn’t last long, it was long enough to get through 2 rooms and stairs or 3 rooms and the hall. Otherwise, there’s ways to make it work. I did have a slight issue with long hair getting wrapped around the roller. However, that is standard with most vacuums. High power was needed to get all hair from the stick into the dirt chamber.
If you can get past the high price, you will not be disappointed.

After a few weeks of searching for a new vacuum to help keep the house tidy with a cordless product as my outlets are baby proofed, I decided on the Samsung Jet 75. I really like the look and quality of this vacuum, but the final decision making factor was the ability to get the Clean Station to work in conjunction with the vacuum . The Clean Station add-on allows you to empty the canister into a bag without dust a debris flying all over the place. Why not just get a bag vacuum? Well I actually enjoy watching the dust and debris flying around the clear canister, there is something satisfying about that. The combination of the Jet 75 and Clean Station ($199) achieves the advantages of a bag vacuum, while allowing you to see what you are actually picking up.
The vacuum is relatively light and powerful, especially on max and includes a variety of attachments including the hardwood floor brush which doesn’t snowplow larger items like cheerios. Having a toddler made this feature a necessity. The attachment made for carpet and hardwood floors will snow plow so I mainly use the larger more exposed roller as my main attachment.
The battery does drain quickly on max mode lasting somewhere near 9 minutes or so depending on which attachment you are using, so I did order an extra battery which costs $149. In the medium and low modes the battery will last much longer.
I watched several videos of other vacuums and one thing about the competition’s model I didn’t like was how cumbersome it was to change speed settings, you would have to hold down the speed adjustment for 4 seconds, however on the Samsung Jet 75 model, it’s simple to change speeds just one button push up or down which helps when you need extra power to clean up a tricky area and then switch back easily to a lower power mode to conserve battery life.
I do wish this vacuum had a light on the attachments, but that wasn’t a deal breaker for me, and through research I knew about that in advance. Also the price is up there, but it was on sale for $399 which is $100 off the normal price, which Best Buy honored for me even when the price dropped after I made the purchase.
I would highly recommend this vacuum for hardwood floors, quick pick ups and dusting (Around the baseboards it does a fantastic job). It does work on carpet and rugs as well, but that wasn’t the main reason I purchased this.
