Tineco Pure One S12 - What We Love

[@helencullen6316]

I purchased the Tineco Pure One S12 yesterday . Had previously been using a Dyson barrel machine and had cleaned in the morning. I was so excited to use the new machine so after 3 hours charging I vacumed my wooden floors and carpets again. I was shocked. I couldn't get over the dust and pet hair the new machine picked up. So far I'm really excited with this machine .

[@ChenChen-lt7gy]

May I suggest doing this on a table ? My knees are hurting just watching the videos can't imagine how your knees feel. Great videos sir, keep up the good work!

[@tomacheteful]

First I want to thank you for all the work that goes into doing these videos. I just purchased this s12 plus today. I currently have a Dyson V11 Torque Drive that I'm not 100% sold on. I dislike the connection to the wand, it seems wobbly to me especially when using the wand in the air. You showed the s12 wand connection and also kind of shook it some to show how sturdy the connection is. That influenced my decision to try this vac. Thank you again for such a thorough video.

[@VacuumAdvisor]

Hey Tom. Glad you find the videos useful.

[@XL_BEAR]

Hey Tom, so what do You think now? Are You sold on the s12, or back to V11?

[@tomacheteful]

@@XL_BEAR S12 Plus all the way. I returned the Dyson V11 a few days ago. The S12 is the answer to all my needs and wants after trying 3 other cordless vacs (Moosoo, Shark F80, V11). They all had good and bad points so I was torn about which one to keep (except the Moosoo which I wouldn't even consider unless for very light duty on a tight budget). I'm thankful to this channel for helping me to consider Tineco (a brand I never heard of). The S12 is the ultimate cordless vac with plenty of suction power, 2 removable batteries, every attachment you could ever need (Plus version), sleek modern design with an awesome lcd display, trigger lock option and I could keep going.. maybe I will do my own video sometime. Buy it, you will not be disappointed.

[@XL_BEAR]

Tom Machete thank you. I’m still torn. That Dyson has so much power. You can tell way more than tineco. I just don’t know if the tineco can pull as much dirt and dust as the Dyson.

[@tomacheteful]

@@XL_BEAR I agree that the Dyson V11 has more suction power, but I have seen that the Tineco has more than enough power to get the job done. Along with all the other features it was an easy decision for me.

[@SN-iz9xn]

I recently purchased this vacuum and I love it !

[@hn9382]

Hi, may I ask how your vacuum is holding up? Is it still working well?

[@sprockkets]

I am pleased that you reviewed something other than Dyson or Shark. Sure those are popular brands who make new stuff, but still, kudos for reviewing something else :P

[@Tsch6373]

Wish that Tineco would include the Anti-Tangle power brush on ALL of its upper-tier stick vacs. Have it on my A11 Pet and I get no hair (fur in my case) wrap on the brush roll. Works well on hard floors as well as low-pile rugs but I opted for the hard floor soft powered brush, nice polishing affect at an additional $99. I have the tools that came with an older model that has the 'friction fit' (compression?) style of attaching. I especially like the extra length of the crevice tool w/o the brush end and its flexibility for getting under major appliances. The brush at the end of this version hinders access to those spaces. JMHO

[@KRSappalousa]

I am not paid/affiliated with Tineco at all. This vacuum cleans up like I have never seen before. This unit (in Canada) comes without the soft hardwood brush which is available in the USA and not Canada- who knows why as an option. It can be purchased from the US for $$$ usd. Otherwise this thing is amazing. I am trying to figure out if A11 tools fit S12 ?

[@octoberfox3399]

Just bought one last week and am loving it so much. Thank you for doing a great review on it. I like the way you have your videos set up with one being the ups and the other being the downsides. My only question now is which one picks up long dog hair better? I don't own a dog yet but was kinda wondering which holds up the best. Thank you for your vedios and have a great day!

[@DavyDave1313]

I keep hearing everyone say how good it is and I honestly think it looks awesome...so I'm giving it another shot. I used my S12+ to clean an extremely dirty carpet and it was regurgitating from where it was sucking up the dirt, I kept getting the "air channel blocked" warning and the air that comes out from the hepa filter up top smelled horribly. I contacted Tineco and they said they would send me replacement parts and see if that solves my issue. I hope it does. I really like this vacuum but for $600+ it should not be dying on me after one little dirty carpet.

[@merry5059]

What type of pole was the carpet? I have medium pile and wondering how it would do on that.

[@hn9382]

Hi has the issue been resolved?

[@woollyclouds2677]

The black and white design is quite eye catching, great review as always!

[@fhkazm]

Outstanding video ! Very methodical and thorough comparison. I've been curious about the Tineco brand. Looks like a great performer. Nice styling too !

[@Tsch6373]

Can't go wrong with the Tineco. I have one of their oldest versions and it still performs like it was new. Recently made some upgrades and they have made some significant changes, one in particular is the Anti-tangle power brush (like to see that applied to the small powered brush as well), I don't have long hair but I do have cats who shed.

[@gregoz6]

I think it’s worth pointing out a S12 design flow. When you placed it flat on the floor, look what happens with the cleaning head, it’s lifted above the ground. You won’t be able to clean the floor under a bed unless you place the vacuum on the side. Not sure what happened here. Dyson v10 or v11 can be placed flat making them easier to clean under a bed.

[@cesarcampos445]

Can you do a comparison with the s11 and the s12?? What are the major differences?

[@calmnpeac3]

Do you have to buy new filters every 3 months?

[@Radders123]

How does using one filter to clean another filter work? Wont the one you replaced it with now be dirty?

[@Lucky8s]

There are bristles inside the cleaning tool. As the filter spins against the bristles, the dust gets rubbed off and sucked into the dustbin.

[@freefallwefall]

Another review showed that after cleaning a filter with the tool the clean filter in the machine becomes clogged/dirty instead. Interesting that this video didn't check for that..

[@bobbyschandra]

thanks for your review, a question I have tried the v11 and noticed the power pulls forward making it easy to push, do u feel that same pull with the tineco?

[@octoberfox3399]

I do find that it does pull forward, but he does describe the pull style of the vaccums in his down side video to tineco 12.

[@Mudig]

too bad it doesn't come with the soft roller. At the time I post this comment it's on sale for $440 but the only way to get it with the roller is to get the Plus version which is still at full price. I also can't find the soft roller to buy separately

[@Skyhanger]

Mudig the plus version has a promotion going on right now bringing it to $440.90 (91 cents more than standard model). This promo is on the front page of their website (if you're in the US)

[@bogoss3178]

Soft roller is 100$ on amazon

[@petethebaker]

Incredible machine

[@gregsullivan7408]

I don't think I'd use the auto mode. Consider this situation - it isn't sensing much dust, so it stays on a low power setting - but the REASON it isn't picking up much dust is BECAUSE it is on a low setting! It would be much better if it could actually detect the amount of dust ON THE SURFACE. 😃

[@gregoz6]

how do I replace the hepa filter?

[@rizla0683]

Great appliance, good performance however build quality suspect. The clips that secure the wand to the bin is flimsy and didn't last 2 years. Same for the clip that secures the wand to the motorised hard floor head. Tineco also does not provide replacement parts so the only solution is to purchase a new appliance.

[@phipsy85]

Very nice review. Do you have the Samsung POWERstick Jet VS9000 on your test radar?

[@VacuumAdvisor]

Not at this time. But you never know in the future.

[@merry5059]

Also curious about the Samsung jet VS 90

[@jengaheads30]

Can you remove the roller tube from the roller?

[@dimitrismemory]

How is this with dog hair? Thanks!

[@VacuumAdvisor]

Good question. I don't recall doing the test but I don't think the S12 has anti-tangle technology. So I suspect there will be a fair bit of tangling in the brushroll. The Tineco S15 (I've done a video review and tested it on hair) does have anti-tangle technology.

[@morgando2]

1 year Pure One S12 Plus. The vacuum feels great! The dirt collector is too small. And you get dirty emptying it. Too many steps to clean. I ran mine on manual full power to get good results on my carpet. The Tineco S12 One Plus, OVER HEATED every time. It took 1hr for it to cool down. Toooo many filters to clean. OMG! RETURN TO AMAZON. V11 Outsize please.

[@MrWizard65]

I just wouldn't go with an off brand with the price being so close to a dyson. Would rather go with the well known brand for the price.

[@Fabonikazell]

Off brand? They've been around since 1998 and obtained lots of patents since then.

[@venataciamoon2789]

No flexible hose is disappointing. Even £100 hoovers come with one but not this expensive one. Shame.

[@bogoss3178]

Flexible hose comes with the S12 plus. The one he has is just the S12.

[@gregsullivan7408]

You seem to be grappling a bit sometimes regarding how to separate information between the two videos. You are the ONLY channel I know of that does separate "likes" and "dislikes" videos, and I find it quite bizarre. Just do ONE video, freeing yourself up to talk about whatever you like, whenever you like! 😃 Have a summary right at the beginning if you like, of all the pros & cons - many of us could actually then skip the rest of the video. I do like your reviews a lot though, and thankyou.

[@kenneyma1498]

threre are different models

[@GromloSlomlo]

This guy gets mad strange at the club

[@patu5798]

Why do you call a “tin-a-co” ? When there is clearly no a in the brand name

[@Tsch6373]

Pronounced with a short 'e'. If you don't know what that means, it's an English pronunciation aid. Tin-echo

[@lambdaboy9999]

You need a better microphone

[@michaelwade3175]

Tineco's customer support for consumers outside of the US (I'm located in Canada) is really poor. You cannot buy most of the replacement components from the Canadian website, even though they are in stock in on the US site (and the US site will convert currencies - it just won't work for shipping). There's a phone number you call that goes unanswered, and email correspondence is very slow with getting one reply per 24 hours that comes in between 2am-4am EST. Just a heads up for anyone else like me who isn't in the US, and who is trying to choose between the S12 and a Dyson!
