Dibea 25 KPa F20Max vs. Dibea D18 comparison

Dibea 25 KPa powerful suction cordless stick vacuum cleaner review

Weight and Dimensions

Weighing only 5.5 lbs, the Dibea F20 Max is lightweight enough to be exceptionally useful. Whether in the stick configuration or handheld version (at just 3 lbs.), the device’s low weight allows you to clean for long hours without feeling overly fatigued. It also means young members of your family or seniors can comfortably use the vacuum. When you have to clean different rooms, you will find the F20 Max portable enough. The stick version measures 46″ × 10″ × 8.5″. As for the D18, it weighs 4.85 lbs and measures 40.9″ x 9.4″ x 8.3″.

Dust Capacity

The dirt bins of both vacuums are average in size. The F20 Max can accommodate 17 oz, while the D18 has a capacity of 18.5 oz. That’s enough space to vacuum an average home without having to stop for a trip to the trash can. Made from a clear plastic material, the bin allows you to monitor the level of dirt so you can discard it as soon as it reaches a critical level. The containers are designed to open downwards, a mechanism that prevents dust particles from flying around.

Emptying the bin before it fills up completely helps the vacuum to perform at its peak. Cleaning it every time you discard the contents readies the vacuum for another cleaning task.

Suction/Cleaning Power

The F20 Max is powered by a 400W digital motor that produces a maximum suction of 25kPa. When using the standard motor speed setting, the vacuum achieves 13kPa of suction. The lowest setting is running at 7kPa. Several features enhance the vacuum’s cleaning power such as it’s powerful electric brushroll.

By comparison, the D18 has a 120W brushless motor that produces 9kPa on the maximum setting and 4kPa on the lower setting.

Input Power

Both vacuums use rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. With a capacity of 2000 mAh, the battery of the F20 Max provides 29.6 V and powers the vacuum for 8 minutes in Max mode, 20 minutes in Standard mode and 55 minutes in Eco mode. The charging time is around 3 hours. As for the D18, it’s powered by a 2200 mAh battery, with a lower voltage of 22.2 V. The lower setting lasts as much as 45 minutes. Vacuuming on the higher power setting sees the runtime decrease to 25 minutes, which is still on the higher side, considering the area you can vacuum within that period. The battery of the D18 takes around 4 to 5 hours to attain full charge.

One good thing about both these models is that their batteries are detachable. Unfortunately, the D18 has the battery incorporated into the handle, which pretty much limits it’s charging.

The F20 Max, on the other hand, has a battery that is removable and thus, interchangeable. It means you can own more than one piece and extend the cleaning time to suit your needs.

Filtration Efficiency

Both vacuums use a cyclone system to deposit dirt into the dustbin. The exhaust filters are washable. They are made of cotton or foam. Although efficient, the filtration system level is below that of HEPA, and may not guarantee protection from allergens. This makes the vacuums unsafe for allergy sufferers. The post-motor filters are protected by a steel mesh that traps larger particles.
