5 reasons why this Samsung vacuum is my #1 home gadget of the year | Daily Reports Online
I test dozens and dozens and dozens of appliances each year. Some are rather ho-hum, and others, like the IQAir Atem X Air Purifier and the Levoit Everest Air Purifier are astoundingly impressive. However, the crown for the best gadget I’ve tested this year has to go to the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra Vacuum.
I’m a big fan of the form-follows-function principle of design. And Samsung’s latest vacuum cleaner is extremely functional – which is, of course, the most important thing. But at the same time, it also manages to be beautiful.
These are some of the reasons why the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is my #1 product of 2025…
#1. It looks great – and I can store it in plain slight
While some cordless stick vacuums can be mounted on a wall on a wall, this involves drilling holes. Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra’s All-in-One Clean Station is a blessing, providing somewhere for the vacuum to live, without the need for any minor DIY.
In fact, I wouldn’t dream of concealing the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra in a closet – it is prominently displayed in the side hallway. It’s so well designed that it doesn’t take up much space, plus the black satin finish is simply stunning, and the fluted material on the clean station especially so. The vacuum cleaner fits perfectly on the clean station and the entire design is thoughtful and purposeful.
#2. It takes care of emptying for me
As its name implies, the All-in-One Clean Station does more than provide storage. When I dock the vacuum cleaner on its perch, the clean station will automatically empty the contents of the dustbin into a dust bag. From the app, I can choose a short (8-10 seconds), normal (12-14 seconds) or long (20-22 seconds) duration. I appreciate not having to touch the dust bin at all. The vacuum cleaner also recharges while docked on the clean station.
#3. I never have to trouble-shoot problems
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra has a user-friendly display panel that reveals the charging status (for example, 39% charged), alongside other useful information such as the selected suction setting. However, it also provides alert messages, if – say – an object is stuck in the brush/tool, the washable micro filter is not properly inserted, the micro filter needs to be cleaned, the dustbin isn’t closed, and more. So, I’m not wasting time trying to guess why the vacuum cleaner isn’t working properly.
As mentioned, this vacuum also comes with a companion app, which provides even more information. The app shows the charging status, lets me know when the dustbin was last emptied, and provides settings options – I can use it to adjust the power mode, dustbin emptying duration, and turn the vacuum screen and battery lights on or off while the vacuum is on the clean station.
#4. The battery life is excellent
Cordless stick vacuums are notorious for having a short battery life. Many will provide 40 to 60 minutes of cleaning before it’s time to stop and recharge the battery, bringing the cleaning session to a halt for several hours. However, the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra’s battery provides a whopping 100 minutes of cleaning time. And, if that’s not impressive enough, there’s also a second battery included, which has a 60-minute run time.
The suction power on the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is also quite impressive. The 400W suction motor does a great job of removing debris. I prefer to use the AI mode, which auto-adjusts suction depending on the exact environment the vacuum is being used in, but there are other modes to choose from as well.
#5. The design is super-versatile
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra has a telescopic wand that can be adjusted in height, so tall and short users can find the most comfortable length when vacuuming. This adjustable wand makes it easy to clean the vents on my ceiling, and clean window blinds and other areas that require reaching up high.
I can also detach the telescopic wand and use the main body as a handheld vacuum, after selecting an attachment. The Combination tool is helpful for removing dust from curtains and furniture. The Extension Crevice tool is ideal for cleaning in tight spaces, like on the side of the refrigerator, or in corners. The Pet tool + can be used to clean pet hair from upholstery and other places.
I will admit that some of the features found on the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra are present on other vacuums. For example, one vacuum may have a clean station, and another may have an adjustable telescopic wand, and yet another vacuum may have a long cleaning time. However, the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra combines all of these features, so I don’t have to pick and choose which features are most important. And that’s why it’s the best thing I’ve tested this year.
