Our Verdict

The Samsung Bespoke Jet is a unique cordless vacuum that immediately garners attention with its well-designed docking station. Its attractive design makes it a standout piece that wouldn't be out of place in a modern living room, offering convenience for those who prefer not to store it in a closet — or don't have handy closet space in their home. This stick vacuum scored well in our rigorous stress tests on carpet and hardwood. Its all-in-one clean station not only acts as a storage and charging stand but also lets us empty the dustbin into a 2-liter hidden bag, making bin dumping easier and cleaner than other stick vacuums we tested. While this vacuum performed well on hard floors, it sometimes plowed already bunched-up larger debris like Cheerios. We believe that Samsung's dual-roll soft cleaner head is to blame here. The soft roller has a relatively small diameter, and it's not powered. Still, everything else is downright excellent, including attachments that snap on and off with perfectly engineered fits that feel velvety smooth.

Our Analysis and Test Results

The Samsung Bespoke Jet might be alluring for some neat freaks because it allows you to dump the dust bin into a disposable bag hidden inside the Clean Station without opening it and releasing dust. It works well, but the drawback is that consumers must continuously buy disposable bags because they are not reusable, increasing costs over time.

We put all cordless vacs through a rigorous testing process, pushing the limits of what they can suck up so you know how they compare. Sometimes though, like with the Bespoke Jet's unique automatic dustbin emptying system, unique features lack comparisons and just need to be seen in action.

Carpet Performance


Because some homes contain thick, shaggy area rugs, we included high pile carpet in our test, though we reduced the importance of weighting in the overall carpet rating score. Still, our difficult high pile carpet test reveals how well suction power works with cleaner head designs, making some vacuums more versatile than others.

Because this test includes three debris types and a time limit, it's remarkably difficult for vacuums to suck up most of the material. Here are the results of the Shark Detect Pro (left), Kenmore (center), and Samsung (right) from the low pile test.

Low Pile


What a little crusher! This vacuum is impressive to see at work. It nearly sucked up all the debris, and it did not backward plow as much as the other high-suction contenders. The vacuum managed a 3-run average percentage pickup of 94%, which is outstanding compared to every other cordless vacuum we tested.

Interestingly, one run on low pile carpet resulted in a clog and a time penalty, but it barely affected the average. Still, any clog gets my attention, and this one occurred when a mass of Cheerios coalesced into a wall, blocking the bin's intake. The mass was so stuck I had to poke a straw into the intake to knock out the blockage.

High Pile


The Bespoke Jet didn't lead our charts in high pile performance like in our low pile tests, but high pile performance remained well above average, collecting 47% of the material. Surprisingly, even though the Jet clogged once on Cheerios on low pile carpet, it had a stellar run on the high pile, where it nabbed all the Cheerios, besting many other runs with competitive vacuums.

One characteristic some might appreciate beyond the test results is how nice the Samsung Bespoke Jet feels in action on our shaggy carpet.It's very nice to hold and gives you a smooth ride that's easy to push across this deep carpet without feeling like it's lacking suction.

In contrast, our highest-performing vacuums are much harder to push on high pile carpets due to their astounding suction power, which reduces their ease of use for all but the strongest adults. If you have thick, luscious carpet, this model won't suck as much sand as the Dyson V15 Detect, but it'll be much friendlier to push and pull, letting you easily add a few extra passes to clean your carpets fully.

Hardwood Performance


As more homes and apartments shift to hardwood or vinyl flooring, more consumers are looking for lightweight vacuums that can clean hard floors as well as carpets and rugs.

To test performance on hardwood, we run a similar multi-debris test over a 27-square-foot area with 1.5 cups of sand, rice, and Cheerios. Again, we give each model just 24 seconds to work on the mess, measuring and recording its collection rates.

Cleaning Performance


Interestingly, the Bespoke Jet was able to suck up nearly all the sand while leaving a few bits of rice and Cheerios behind. After the timed test, we measured an average of 95%, which was only a few percentage points behind our leaders.


I think its performance in this test could have been even better had the cleaner head back plowed a bit less. On my reverse strokes, the cleaner head pushed the material to the end of the test area, making it harder to turn around and reach before the time limit.

Edges


To test performance near walls, we place two lines of coffee grounds up against the crack where a wall meets a hardwood floor, then assess results from a head-on effort and a parallel run. This vacuum left more ground than I expected when pushing it into the wall, likely due to the bumper not being motorized. Why would this be a design flaw? When running the vacuum straight into a wall, the roller needs to rotate to grab and bring in the dirt that lingers at the very edge. As opposed to cleaning in the open, the roller can rotate while we're pushing it along, so it can easily achieve turning and grabbing as we push through the house. We're limited when we approach edges.

Before Testing After Testing

The Bespoke Jet's wide bumper that's not motorized at the front of its cleaner head prevented success in our coffee wall edge tests.

Those with many long hallways with hardwood floors will likely need to spend more time cleaning their baseboards, and they might even need to break out the crevice accessory tool for near-wall work. If this is a dealbreaker, the Dyson Gen5detect sucked up all the coffee with ease.

Pet Hair


Our pet hair test is one of our toughest challenges. We start by placing 4 grams of pet hair into our 4.5' x 3' carpet test sections, then add 1 gram of long hair extensions on top to simulate longer shed hair. To make it even more difficult, we mash it all into the carpet with a heavy wheel roller to simulate foot traffic. We give each vacuum 12 seconds to suck up as much hair as possible, then weigh the results.

While it was able to suck up short pet hair fairly easily, its nemesis is long hair. Basically, in just a few seconds, 1 gram of long hair extensions would cause this vacuum to instantly shut off and indicate a clog — even though there is no clog, it's just wrapped the hair around the brush tool.

Hair clogs are common among vacuum cleaners and are always annoying, but the Bespoke Jet frequently shuts down automatically, throwing a “clog” error that forces us to stop and cut away the hair before turning it back on. This is what it looked like when we turned over the cleaner head.

Fortunately, our recommendation here is easy. If a household has a lot of humans who shed long hair, consumers will probably want to tend more regularly to hair that accumulates on the brush roller. It was an annoyance and a time suck and frustrating. Given how expensive it is, I expected better long-hair performance from this vacuum.

Long hair cause the Bespoke Jet to throw a clog error and shutdown far too often to tolerate.

Filtration


While many vacuums claim to have outstanding filtration, we test the claims by monitoring air quality particulate counts in a clean room before, during, and immediately after a vacuum test where we suck up 1/3 cup of flour. By setting a baseline and monitoring particulate increases with two separate Dylos air quality monitors, we can identify if a vacuum contains or releases small particles into the air you breathe.

Filtration Particle Count
 Samsung Bespoke Jet
Small Particle Count41
HEPA Filter
Dylos Air Quality DesignationExcellent

This model has a 5-layer filtration system and shows that it successfully contained tiny particles, barely spiking the room particulate count. Dylos ranks anything under 75 particles as excellent, and it's an indicator that this vacuum might be good for anyone sensitive to allergens or pet dander.

Ease of Use


Unlike a wall-mounted stick vacuum, the docking station looks rather nice and can be moved with minimal hassle. Additionally, it can lean securely on a wall without much risk of falling over.


As a bonus, we could easily dump the dustbin with a press of a button on the docking station. These are all great quality-of-life features that we appreciated with the Samsung. For those who have a home with little closet space and need to store their vacuum out in the open, this vacuum is a great option. As a bonus, curious visitors might even volunteer to vacuum just to try it out.

Maneuverability


Like with some of our most powerful vacuums, we sometimes struggled with maneuverability on low pile carpet due to its strong, sticky suction characteristics. It easily swiveled around table legs and was smooth on hardwood, but it was harder to navigate on typical low pile carpets and rugs.

What I like most about the Bespoke Jet is its smooth ride. It's easy to push across the carpet without feeling like it's lacking suction.

Maintenance


We've discussed the docking station, but the dustbin deserves another mention. You won't have to touch it to clean it out. It only requires the touch of a button on the docking station, and the dustbin will empty, which we found to be the standout feature of the Samsung.

However, consumers will need to replace the removable bags, which creates additional costs and is a bit of a bummer. This is one of the best choices for those who prioritize tidiness during maintenance. Not only that, but cleaning the filters is super simple as well. It takes some learning to understand the general maintenance ins and outs fully, but the upfront work is worth it for something this clean and efficient.

Uphostery & Attachments


It comes with a combination and extendable crevice tool. The vacuum hose is also extendable, which is super useful for cleaning hard-to-reach areas of your home. In our tests using extensions on couches and pillows, the Samsung proved quite effective, eliminating most debris we sprinkled across couch pillows and an ironing board. While it did leave a small streak of coffee grounds, which was surprising, it still delivered a commendable performance overall — and one that many will be able to improve in their own homes with an extra pass or two.

Battery


Battery life is very competitive, delivering a solid 54 minutes on its lowest setting, which should be long enough for most people to clean quite a bit of their floors before needing to recharge.

While just 10 minutes on high power doesn't seem long, this model did so well on most surfaces that most users will not need to tap high power often.

Should You Buy the Samsung Bespoke Jet?


If you can manage the hefty asking price and appreciate the quality-of-life features, such as the docking station and ease of cleaning, we think this is a great choice all around. While we don't love the additional costs of the dustbin bags and wish they landed at a more reasonable price point, overall, this is a great device that should be welcomed in any home.

What Other Stick Vacuums Should You Consider?


If you can throw down more money, the Dyson V15 Detect outperforms the Samsung and is chock full of high-tech features. Plus, it comes with more attachments. If you want high performance at a lower cost, the Shark Stratos Cordless is a great option, particularly if you have a lot of hardwood real estate, as it performs exceptionally well on that terrain.
