Riccar Prima Straight Sucti...

$499.99

Product details

Straight suction is the simplest way to describe how the Prima R50SS moves air: no motorized brush head at the nozzle, no separate beater-bar motor, just the canister's own motor pulling air, and the dirt riding in it, through the hose and floor tool. Riccar builds it into the Prima line as the straightforward alternative to the Tandem Air canister that adds a powered nozzle.

It is a bagged canister vacuum, which is the detail that matters most for anyone weighing it against a bagless model: dust and debris go into a sealed bag rather than an open bin, so nothing gets stirred back into the room air at the point the machine is emptied. That is the standing argument for bagged collection in any home with allergies to manage.

Because there is no powered nozzle to power and maintain, a straight-suction canister like the R50SS tends to be the simpler machine to live with over years of ownership, with one less motor that could eventually need attention. It suits households that want a canister's reach and maneuverability without the added complexity of a motorized floor head.

Straight suction is not a step down so much as a different set of priorities. A home with mostly low-pile carpet, hard floors, or area rugs rarely needs a motorized brush working the fiber, and skipping it means less to eventually service and a lighter machine to push around the house in the meantime. Riccar's authorized-dealer network includes Vacuums and More, and we can walk you through straight suction versus the powered-nozzle Tandem Air canister if you are unsure which side of the Prima line fits your floors.
