Samsung SC 18M2150SG vacuum cleaner review: Anti-Tangle turbine - do promises match reality?

Specification overview

The SC 18M2150 model is not the most powerful, now Samsung produces vacuum cleaners with an average of 2000-2200 W, but there are also models with 1500 W. However, for cleaning, the suction capacity of devices is much more important, which the Samsung brand is always on top of - 380-390 W on average.

The unique development of Samsung engineers is the Anti-Tangle technology, which prevents debris from knocking into balls and thereby increases the operating time and performance of the device

Testing shows that the power of the model is enough to thoroughly clean all corners, remove wool from a carpet with a low and dense pile, vacuum the mattress thoroughly.It is not recommended to tidy up the computer keyboard - you will have to get the keys from the container.

Specifications SC 18M2150:

• cons. power - 1800 W;
• noise - 87 dB;
• suction power - 380 W;
• container - 1.5 l;
• weight - 4.6 kg;
• electric cord - 6 m;
• complete set — 4 nozzles, washable filters.

If there are small children in the house, it is better not to tidy up during the “quiet hour” - the vacuum cleaner produces a fairly loud noise - 87 dB. Usually such a “howl” of the turbine during the operation of the vacuum cleaner overlaps the intercom signal and the phone call.

The dimensions of the device are relatively small - this is one of the most compact Samsung models. Convenient design and low weight allow even children to operate the device

A six-meter cord is enough to tidy up a large room without additional switching. If we take into account the length of the hose and the holding pipe, then the range is about 9 m.

Model Anti Tangle VC5100

The most powerful novelty is the Samsung Anti Tangle VC5100 turbine vacuum cleaner. The device is bagless and ideal for households that have pets. According to the hostesses, the wool is removed very quickly and at the same time does not impede the operation of the unit.

It is important that the model has a rather modest weight and dimensions.The previous model VC5000 caused a lot of complaints, so even a child can now tolerate the novelty

If we consider the design, then the Samsung Anti Tangle 5100 turbine vacuum cleaner is available only in elegant black. Some users highlight this fact as a disadvantage. However, for many this solution seems universal.

The Anti Tangle Turbine prevents wool from tangling and wrapping around the filter. As a result, air output and suction are not reduced and the efficiency remains always high. The hostess appreciated that there is no need to manually remove wool and hair not only from the filter, but also from the brush

For allergy sufferers, it is important that the novelty is equipped with two filters that completely prevent dust from flying around the room.

Cleaning the vacuum cleaner is also easy. To do this, press the button, which is located on the handle, open and detach the container. The debris is shaken out and the container is inserted into place.

Different surfaces require different suction power. To do this, the developers have equipped the top of the handle with a wireless controller. With it, you can turn the device on and off, as well as increase and decrease the power.

Vacuum cleaner Samsung VC2100

Inexpensive, simple and high-quality model that combines excellent performance and affordable price. In the line of CV vacuum cleaners with Cyclone Force and Anti-Tangle turbine, this is the most budget option.

The package of this model includes a medium-sized dust container, a folding tube, an ergonomic corrugation, brushes - main and additional, nozzles for removing dust in hard-to-reach places.

The design of the unit is represented by a streamlined reliable body on large-diameter rubber wheels.The unit can not only be moved with the help of wheels, but also with the help of a convenient handle.

Like other turbine vacuum cleaners, it quickly and efficiently copes with dust and dirt on any surface. A powerful turbine allows you to remove all dirt, including pet hair and fluff, even from a fleecy surface

At the same time, not a single speck of dust penetrates into the surrounding air, which is very important if there are children or people with allergic diseases in the house.

How an Anti-Tangle Turbine Works

In most vacuum cleaners, the declared suction power exceeds the actual operational values. The performance of the unit decreases over time - on the radiator grill dirt accumulates, hair gets tangled, and traction is reduced.

Samsung solved this problem by adding an Anti-Tangle turbine to the design of the device. To evaluate the effect of an innovative solution, you need to understand how a standard cyclone filter works and works.

An ordinary element consists of two compartments: the first chamber is the collection of fine dust, the second is the accumulation of larger debris. Under the influence of centrifugal force, the separation of contaminants of different sizes is carried out.

Fibers and hair fall into the intermediate category of sora. They are very light and rise up with the dust, heading towards the dust filter.

Accumulating on the grate, debris interferes with airflow, suction power drops, and the motor overheats. So that the vacuum cleaner does not burn out and resumes work with “new strength”, the filter must be cleaned.

The device with Anti-Tangle differs in design.The cyclone filter consists of three sections, at the top of the dust collector there is a small turbine - opposite the central chamber. Spinning at high speed, Anti-Tangle creates a repulsive force, freeing the airflow from debris.

As a result, large particles of litter enter the outer compartment, and the intermediate vortex from the turbine discards hair, fibers and wool, preventing them from passing to the central container. Air with small dust particles rushes to the filter

As tests have shown, a vacuum cleaner from Samsung Turbine Anti-Tangle maintains a high level of performance twice as long as other units. Traction power does not drop, and the engine remains safe.

Initial equipment of the device

The set of nozzles offered with the vacuum cleaner does not require additional purchase of accessories, as there are 4 most necessary brushes:

• main floor/carpet;
• slotted for processing skirting boards and joints;
• small for polished and smooth hard surfaces;
• turbo for collecting thread, wool and hair.

The new device is equipped with two filters and a container for collecting dust and debris. All parts are made of safe materials and are reusable, suitable for frequent washing.

Samsung is famous for the fact that it supplies all spare parts for its equipment. Even if the model has been out of production for a long time, new filters, brushes, motors can be found in warehouses.

But it should be remembered that original parts are 3-5 times more expensive than analog ones. It makes no sense to buy a Samsung spare part for an old model, it is better to purchase an inexpensive alternative.

Functionality and technical parameters

The vacuum cleaner removes dry debris with the help of air drawn in by the turbine. An additional turbine is mounted in a plastic container, which reduces the ingress of hair and wool onto the foam motor filter. On the back of the housing there is a fine paper filter that does not let fine dust into the room. The design of the equipment does not allow removing water or liquid dirt, as well as waste generated as a result of finishing work in the premises.

The vertical rotor electric motor is housed in a separate plastic capsule at the rear of the housing.The motor is equipped with an automatic type emergency switch that is activated when the housing is heated above the programmed value. To reduce the load on the electrical circuit, an electronic block for smooth acceleration of the rotor is used. To reduce the heating of the components, the controller is moved to the power button.

The equipment is equipped with control handles of 2 types - with an upper ring element and a flat type. A swivel washer is used on the ring handle, blocking an additional window for air suction. The user rotates the element to change the suction power on the nozzle. The smooth handle is equipped with a flat regulator that moves along the guides, blocking the oval configuration window.

The basic brush is intended for cleaning floor coverings. The user switches the operating modes with a pedal mounted on the upper plane of the nozzle body. The functionality of the vacuum cleaner is extended with a wave-shaped bristle nozzle and silicone combs, which cleans carpets and hard surfaces from adhering dirt and long hair. The nozzles are equipped with swivel couplings at the base, additional plastic rollers are mounted on the surface of the elements.

• air filtration.

Ease of maintenance.In cyclones, the exhaust filter must be cleaned periodically. It is enough to wash and dry the foam rubber sponge.

Easy to clean dust container. The collected debris accumulates at the bottom of the tank. The user does not come into contact with dirt - just remove the container and shake the contents into the bin

High power. The range of Anti-Tangle units is represented by vacuum cleaners of different capacities. The power range is 380-440 W - this is quite enough for efficient garbage collection in one pass.

Ergonomic handle. Thanks to a special configuration, it was possible to reduce the load on the brush and prevent twisting of the flexible hose. Handle material - lightweight plastic

On most models of the Anti-Tangle series, the control buttons are placed on the top of the handle. This allows, without being distracted from the cleaning process, to change the suction intensity depending on the type of coating - the "+" and "-" buttons.

The handle with an electronic module makes the operation of the vacuum cleaner more comfortable. To start or turn off the unit, you do not need to bend down - the "Start" button is provided on the holder.

Air filtration. The air flow driven through the cyclone separator passes through the prism of the filter elements at the outlet. HEPA barrier provides maximum cleaning, removal of bacteria and allergens

Some modifications are equipped with an Anti-Tangle Tool brush. The attachment is specially designed to quickly remove pet hair and hair. The fibers do not wrap around the brush, which means that you do not have to be distracted by cleaning it.

Nozzle "3 in 1". A practical accessory for removing debris from various surfaces. Transforming brush: nozzle with a narrow tip - cleaning cracks and corners, with extended bristles - spot cleaning, lint-free - care for pillows, upholstered furniture

The working stroke of Samsung vacuum cleaners cannot be called quiet. The volume of the rumble of various modifications with the Anti-Tangle turbine is about 85-88 dB.

What is Anti-Tangle Turbine

This is a high-speed turbine that prevents wool from winding around the filters and brush. This is a great cleaning aid for those who have pets at home. The fact is that collecting wool from the carpet, and then removing it from the brush is quite long and unpleasant. But this revolutionary technology made it possible to forget about this problem.

For the first time it was used by Samsung, having patented it. Thus, other manufacturers are not allowed to include it in their models. However, some other companies have also achieved this effect. But they are in no hurry to include the Anti-Tangle function in their vacuum cleaners. Therefore, almost the entire model range with such a turbine belongs to Samsung today.

Here are the main advantages of such a turbine:

• The turbine spins faster and repels excess moisture and dust from the filter.
• Longer preservation of the declared power and increase in the service life of the device.

• The filter clogs less often, so it does not need to be cleaned as often.
• Uniform distribution of garbage inside the container.

Thus, the Anti-Tangle feature is quite useful. It is worth considering in more detail the TOP-4 models of vacuum cleaners, where it is present today.

Manual

The Samsung vacuum cleaner is equipped with an instruction in Russian containing recommendations for preparing the product for use, operation and cleaning. The manufacturer recommends connecting the plug to a socket equipped with a grounding circuit.To reduce the likelihood of a short circuit, an automatic fuse rated for 16 A is mounted in the apartment power circuit. Operation of the product in damp rooms and outdoors is prohibited.

The equipment is not equipped with a signal indicator of performance degradation. On the side of the container there is a label indicating the permissible level of dust. It is recommended to clean the flask and the turbine impeller when the suction power is reduced. The motor foam filter is mounted with conical protrusions upwards, an installation error leads to abrasive dust entering the engine manifold. The HEPA H13 fine paper filter must not be exposed to moisture, the manufacturer recommends changing the part after 4-8 months of use.

Vacuum cleaner Samsung VC4100

A slightly less powerful model than the VC5100, but also with an Anti-Tangle turbine. This is a bagless unit with stepped suction. Its advantages are ease of operation, maneuverability and good cleaning quality.

The design of the vacuum cleaner is thought over for the most convenient operation. When moving, it does not spoil the surface of the floor covering, thanks to large rubber wheels, and the protective bumper ensures trouble-free cleaning of furniture. Dust and debris are collected in a transparent container with a lid. Convenience is added by a significant length of the cord - 7 meters, thanks to which you can move from a power source to a remote distance. The vacuum cleaner is equipped with nozzles for cleaning in different conditions. Along with the main brushes, it is equipped with an additional Anti-Tangle Tool (TB700) that does not clog with hair and fluff.

The Samsung VC4100 model has good performance:

• With a maximum power of 1500 W, the suction power is 390 W.
• Noiselessness of work;
• The volume of the container is up to 1.3 liters.

The value of the vacuum cleaner is that dust and debris do not fly out into the room, due to the large centrifugal force of the turbine. The filter does not clog, and the power of the unit remains optimal. This airflow filtration technology has been approved and certified by the British Allergy Foundation (BAF).

It doesn't take much effort to clean the vacuum cleaner. It is necessary to get a dust collector and shake out the contents from it. And the filter is removed, rinsed and dried.
