5 reasons why the Stick Vacuum PRO is Product of the Year

The title Product of the Year isn't handed out just like that. A product has to stand out in terms of performance, ease of use and consumer experiences. Achaté's Stick Vacuum PRO was named Product of the Year in 2026. But what makes this stick vacuum so special according to so many users?

You probably know the feeling: you start enthusiastically, but after a few minutes the vacuum is already pulling less hard. You have to go over the same spot more often, and meanwhile the battery runs down before you're finished. With most cordless models, suction power drops as soon as the battery starts to run low.

The Stick Vacuum PRO is equipped with a powerful 450W motor and a suction power of 29 kPa. Thanks to smart power control, that power stays constant throughout your cleaning, even as the battery runs down. So you spend less time and never have to go over anything twice.

Your floor looks clean, but is it really? A lot of dust, hair and fine dirt is barely visible to the naked eye, especially on hard floors. That's why you often think you're done while plenty is still left behind.

The Stick Vacuum PRO makes it visible. Thanks to the built-in green LED light, you can see exactly where dust and dirt are that you would otherwise miss. The automatic dust detection also instantly adjusts the suction power, so the vacuum only uses extra power when it's needed. So you no longer have to guess whether something is already clean.

Nothing is more annoying than having to stop halfway through cleaning because the battery is flat.

Thanks to the powerful 8 x 2000 mAh battery, you can use the Stick Vacuum PRO for up to 75 minutes on a single charge. For most households, that's more than enough to clean the whole home without recharging in between.

You'd expect that so much power means a heavy appliance. With most vacuums that's true, but not here.

Weighing just 2.6 kilograms, you manoeuvre effortlessly under furniture, along skirting boards and up the stairs. Thanks to the various attachments, you can easily do the sofa and the car too. So cleaning no longer gets put off until it becomes "a big job".

Specifications don't tell the whole story. In the end, it's about how a product performs in everyday use.

More than 300,000 households now use the Stick Vacuum PRO and rate it an average of 4.5 out of 5 stars. And that's exactly why this stick vacuum was named Product of the Year 2026.

Curious why so many people brought the Stick Vacuum PRO home? You can now try it at home for 30 days for €199 (normally €249). If you're not happy with it, you'll get your money back. You also get a 2-year warranty.
