Midea Cordless 2-in-1 Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Quick verdict

The lightest vacuum we rank at 1.4kg, with washable filters and a 1-year Midea warranty, at around β‚±7,800. The catch is 7kPa of suction and a Ni-MH battery, which is dated hardware at this price.

Pros and cons

βœ“ Pros

  • 1.4kg, the lightest vacuum in this list
  • 45 minutes in normal mode, longer than several pricier sticks
  • Every filter part is washable, so there is nothing to rebuy
  • Sold by Midea Official Store with a 1-year parts and labor warranty

βœ— Cons

  • 7kPa of suction, the weakest of any vacuum we ranked
  • Ni-MH battery rather than lithium-ion, which ages faster and self-discharges
  • 17 minutes on max, so strong mode is for spot cleaning only
  • 82 dBA, the loudest reading published in this list

The Midea 2-in-1 cordless stick vacuum is the lightest vacuum we rank at 1.4kg, with washable filters and a 1-year Midea warranty, at around β‚±7,800. It is also the weakest, and both of those things need saying together.

The suction is the problem

7kPa. That is the lowest figure in our roundup by a wide margin, and Midea publishes it plainly, which we respect.

For scale: the mid-range sticks here run 20,000Pa to 27,000Pa. Even allowing for the fact that pascals from different brands are not perfectly comparable, this is a different class of machine.

What it means practically is that this is a light surface cleaner: hard floors, everyday dust, crumbs, a fast pass before visitors arrive. It will not pull dirt out of a rug, and it will struggle with pet hair anywhere except bare tile.

Runtime is 45 minutes normal, 17 on max, with a 4 to 5 hour charge. The 45-minute figure is genuinely respectable. The 17-minute max figure is the one that matters when something actually needs work, and a charge that takes six times longer than strong mode lasts is a poor ratio.

The 0.3L bin is the smallest here, half the Deerma’s and Panasonic’s 0.6L.

Noise is 82 dBA, the loudest published reading in this roundup.

The battery is dated

Ni-MH, 14.4V, 2,000mAh. In 2026 that is unusual, and not in a good way.

Nearly every rival at this price uses lithium-ion, and the differences are practical rather than theoretical. Ni-MH holds less charge per kilo, self-discharges noticeably in storage, and ages faster under partial charging. On a vacuum used weekly rather than daily, a pack that has quietly drained itself in the cupboard is a real annoyance.

To be fair on the other side, Midea publishes all of this. The spec sheet on the Philippine page gives the model code, suction, motor split, battery chemistry, both runtimes, charge time, bin size, weight, noise, and warranty. That is more transparency than most sellers at this price offer, and it is why we can be this specific about the shortcomings.

What is genuinely good?

1.4kg. The lightest vacuum in our roundup, lighter than the 1.6kg Dreame flagships and the Panasonic. For quick passes, stairs, and reaching up to a ceiling fan, that is a real advantage.

Everything washable. The dust cup, the filter, and the HEPA element all wash out, so there is no consumable to keep rebuying over the vacuum’s life.

Is the Midea cordless vacuum sulit?

Around β‚±7,800 as of August 27, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee.

No, and we would rather say so plainly. Spread across the 1-year warranty, β‚±7,800 is about β‚±21 a day, for a vacuum with the weakest suction, the smallest bin, the loudest reading, and the only Ni-MH battery in this roundup.

At around β‚±9,000, β‚±1,200 more, the Dreame V10S offers 155AW and 20kPa, 60 minutes, green laser dust detection, a carbon fiber wand, and 2 years of warranty. At around β‚±3,600, less than half, the Deerma VC20 Plus does the same class of light cleaning with a lithium battery, a bigger bin, and 4,275 ratings.

The 4.9 rating across 96 raters says buyers using it for light duties are happy, and that is fair. It just does not change the arithmetic against its neighbours.

Who the Midea cordless vacuum suits

Buy this if you specifically want a Midea with a local warranty, your floors are hard, your cleaning is light, and the 1.4kg weight is the deciding factor. It is a reasonable choice for an older user or a small condo where lifting matters more than lifting dirt. For most people at this budget, the money goes further elsewhere in our roundup.

If the Midea cordless vacuum is not right

If you want real suction for β‚±1,200 more, the Dreame V10S delivers 155AW and 20kPa with a 2-year warranty at around β‚±9,000. If light cleaning is genuinely all you need, the Deerma VC20 Plus does it at around β‚±3,600 with a lithium battery and 4,275 owner ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 7kPa enough suction for a stick vacuum?

It is the weakest figure in our roundup, and it limits the vacuum to light surface work: hard floors, dust, crumbs, a quick pass before visitors. For rugs, carpet, or pet hair it is not enough. Even the β‚±3,600 Deerma is stronger at 5,500Pa on a different scale, and the mid-range sticks run 20,000Pa and up.

Why does the Ni-MH battery matter?

Ni-MH holds less charge per kilo than lithium-ion, self-discharges noticeably in storage, and ages faster with partial charging. Almost every rival at this price uses lithium-ion. On a vacuum you may only use weekly, a pack that drains while sitting in a cupboard is a practical annoyance, not just a spec-sheet quibble.

How long does the Midea 2-in-1 run?

Midea states 45 minutes in normal mode and 17 minutes on max, with a 4 to 5 hour charge. The 45-minute figure is respectable, but read the max figure as the real one for anything that needs scrubbing, and note that the charge takes six times longer than the strong mode lasts.

Is the Midea 2-in-1 an original Midea?

This listing is from Midea Official Store, the brand's own Shopee PH shop, so it is the authoritative listing for warranty and after-sales. Midea Philippines lists it as model V18P01AP20PHR with a 1-year parts and labor warranty and a published spec sheet, which is more transparency than most sellers at this price offer.
