Don't hear much about Samsung brand vacs here in the States...do they mostly sell under different labels here like the Panasonic / Kenmore arrangement?

The latest Samsung bagless vacuums did nowhere near as well as the LG Kompressor in Consumer Reports testing. Two of the Samsungs have very poor airflow thru the hose for tool use and don't clean carpets as well as the LG Kompressor. LG stands for Lucky- Goldstar and, like Samsung, is a South Korean company.

I just noticed that if you look at their upright it has some Bissell qualities to it, like the turbo nozzle, the base some, and Bissells combo dusting/upholstery nozzle. I wonder who makes it. CLICK HERE TO GO TO daknx1994's LINK |

I think they are better off sticking to TVs and computers! |

Bissell, yes makes sense, as i think there was or is a Samsung, 'Digi-vac' of some kind.
Link shows an ad from an appliance store selling these for $299. Could hgh end Asian vacs become players someday, like Lexus & Acura? CLICK HERE TO GO TO stricklybojack's LINK on San Diego Craigslist |

It is interesting looking. At $299 it should compete with the Dyson, Panasonics/Kenmore and some others. |

Looks like the listing for $299 is gone. |

Hare is Pete's blue Samsung that won design awards in its day.
Pete's description: It is a bagged vacuum with tools on board under the lid. It would have been 2009 when Pete found this. Later that week I was in a rural ladies home to pick up a kijiji win and the lady had a yellow version of this...but would not part with it.

Yep Scott.. In the UK, the budget SAMSUNG Propel (SU3351) uprights have a whiff of Bissell about them. I think both companies actually sell the same machine but with different cosmetic differences. I recall seeing Bissell's latest Powerforce and the Samsung SU3351 Propel just before Christmas. At the rear, both vacs are very similar especially around the back of the main hood where the same side by side ribs are located on each side of the floor head.
I tried one very recently in a local electricity show room. The Samsung is a little noisy but that's to be expected from a Chinese brand and the shop were selling them for a cheap 50 to 70 pounds. However, I love how light it is to lift or push and the handle is quite comfortable to hold onto. The Bissell model was however far more substantial feeling, bulkier and heavier. |
