I really feel like this is a gimmick product. Use your regular vacuum, and do a light spray of Lysol or sanitizer of choice. I think it's a great way to pray on people's fears.

Re: Raycop uv vacuum

[ Edited ]

I purchased one of these vacuums last year during the height of the "SANITIZE EVERYTHING" covid fear. I used it once and it's been under my bed ever since. In my opinion it's just not necessary.

I just use a regular vacuum cleaner and then a steamer. Every few months, when I strip down all of my bed linens to get to the bare mattress, I vacuum and then steam it. I also do the same for my dog bed and my recliner.

Keep in mind that the Raycop has filters which need to be replaced. I just checked the price for them and looks like they cost somewhere around $25. They say it lasts for over a year before needing replaced.

Assuming the UV light actually works to sanitize for what you want to sanitize against, you still have to hold it over each area for 5 seconds for it to sanitize. So, the sweeping motion I always see demonstrated will not work. It doesn't indicated the UV range in nm and only says it works against the influenza virus A.  And dust removal 90% after 3 MINUTES?

If this is for allergies, if the carpets and curtains are gone and bed and pillow are encased, maybe the best route would be to get a vacuum with good filters?
