Good not great
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have mostly lvp flooring in my home and it has no issues picking up the debris on the floor. The battery life definitely does not last 60 minutes, but from my experience it is not as bad as people say. The tower is awesome. I love the self cleaning and the ability to store tools in it. So far I have very little complaints.

LG Cord Zero
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LG Cordzero works for what it’s meant to do, small rugs and tight area but it’s not a powerful vacuum cleaner for carpet cleaning. The battery only lasts for about 20 minutes or so on high settings, perfect for what I need in my house.

LG Ups The Ante But falls Short On Battery Life
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upon unpacking the new LG Cordzero stick vacuum I was impressed how well it was packed which has usually been my experience for higher end items. This vacuum was extremely easy to set up and literally took me no more than 10 minutes. After letting the battery charge overnight and showing fully charged, I gave it a go. The unit has an easy adjustable wand to match your comfortability in pushing back and forth. After I adjusted I began vacuuming. The first thing I noticed right off the bat was how light it was and free moving. It glided easily across my laminate flooring grabbing everything in its path. For areas of heavier debris, I pressed the + button on the handle to increase the air flow and motor speed. Seemed to work flawlessly. Next I wanted to test in on carpet with low to medium shag as well as a few dining room and living room rugs. Seemed to work fine and did the job, but I felt a higher powered vacuum would do a deeper cleaning job if needed and have heavier shedding pets. One thing that I really like is the LED lights on the dual head nozzle that show all the small crumbs you might have missed. Great throughout the house and hard to see areas. After about 10 minutes the battery went dead. Please note that 10+ minutes was a guestimation. I put the stick on it's charger and the cycle and suction began draining the vacuum of all the dust and debris which I feel is an absolutely cool feature. After about a minute in began charging. The LG ThinQ app is a great way to check on the charging while your away and can assist if maintenance is needed. This is a really cool app if you own a lot of LG products. This is a sleek looking unit with attachment storage inside each panel door on the left and the right, which is nice compared to other stick vacuums out there where you have to put attachments in separate locations. Note: this particular model only comes with one battery and no other area to charge a second battery like the other model that LG carries. Speaking of battery life, I was curious if I had done something wrong earlier to get such a low amount of battery life the first time, so I waited over half a day, checked the app and unit showing fully charged and put it to the test a second time. This time using a timer. The battery lasted 11 minutes 58 seconds on the nose. The battery life promised on this vacuum is up to 60 minutes. I would say I am pretty disappointed with how long it actually lasted. This is pretty common with past stick vacuums I have owned in the past. Maybe I received a faulty battery or maybe the manufacturer should automatically sell each unit with two batteries. Overl all, I give the LG CordZero 4 stars only losing one start for it's battery life. This is still a beautiful unit and with all it's cool features well worth the investment.

Best Buy is a scam
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They sent me to do the vacuum check but it doesn't work 10 minutes the battery dies they went to return the vacuum they opened the box but it turns out that the serial number does not match with the box that seemed strange to me because the person who sold it to me said I had the box sealed, I spoke to the supposed manager and he answered that I changed the vacuum for another to return something stupid, he told me they did not want to receive it, I left the vacuum in the store, I took photos and he recommended it to all the customers who will have the boxes look at the product because best buy is manipulating the products so that they cannot be returned

A Versatile and Powerful Cleaning Solution
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.----- SUMMARY ----- Verdict: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum is a great choice for anyone looking for a powerful, versatile, and easy-to-use vacuum cleaner. It has a sleek, modern design, and it comes with a variety of features that make it a great choice for both cleaning hard floors and carpets. The vacuum's powerful suction is impressive, and it does a great job of picking up dust, debris, and hair. The one-touch control makes it easy to operate, and the Auto Empty function is a convenient way to keep the dust bin clean. The battery life is also good, and the removable filters are easy to clean. Overall, the LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum is a great choice for anyone looking for a high-quality vacuum cleaner. Pros: - Elegant and versatile design - All-in-One Tower included for easy charging, storing, and auto-emptying - Dual Floor Max Nozzle adapts to different surfaces and has built-in LED headlight - Detachable hand vacuum and telescopic wand for cleaning hard-to-reach areas - One-touch control for effortless operation - Kompressor Technology to maximize debris collection - Smart Inverter Motor for powerful suction - 10-year limited warranty for the motor - Cyclone system and removable filters for easy maintenance - ThinQ app for tracking cleaning history, diagnostics, and tips and tricks Cons: - Battery life varies greatly depending on power mode and nozzle used ----- DETAILS ----- Design: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum is a versatile and elegant cleaning device that offers great convenience. One unique feature is the All-in-One Tower, which allows for easy charging, storage, and auto-emptying of the vacuum. The Dual Floor Max Nozzle is adaptable to different surfaces, and it comes with a built-in LED headlight that illuminates hidden dust. Even in broad daylight, it was surprising to see a lot of dust and debris on my floors that were not visible to the naked eye. The LED headlight makes it easier to get completely clean floors, and it’s extra satisfying to see the dust and debris gone. Another design aspect I appreciate is the detachable hand vacuum and the telescopic wand, which let you clean hard-to-reach areas with ease. LG seems to have put a lot of thought into the design of the vacuum and the All-in-One Tower, as both devices have a sleek, modern design. I also appreciate the hidden storage for tools and accessories within the tower. Operation: The LG CordZero vacuum cleaner is effortless to use thanks to its one-touch control feature. You can turn the vacuum on and off and adjust the power level with just your thumb. Once you're done vacuuming, you can dock the vacuum in the tower, and it will automatically empty the dustbin. This vacuum cleaner is designed to provide maximum debris collection by starting with an empty dustbin every time. Additionally, it comes with Kompressor Technology, which is a lever that compresses collected debris and hair in the bin. This technology allows you to create more bin capacity without increasing the size of the vacuum. This is a smart innovation that maximizes the vacuum's effectiveness. The Auto Empty and Kompressor Technology features are fantastic for someone like me who has kids and pets. Performance: I have been really impressed with the performance of the LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum. It has a powerful suction thanks to its Smart Inverter Motor. Whether I vacuum my hardwood floor or carpet, I am amazed by how much dust, debris, and hair it can pick up. Considering its compact size, I did not expect it to work so well. I am pleasantly surprised, and using it is a joy as it ensures a clean floor every time. Additionally, the fact that its motor is supported by a 10-year limited warranty gives me peace of mind. Battery Life: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum comes equipped with a quick-release battery that is powerful enough to clean my 2,000-square-foot home. The amount of time the vacuum can run varies depending on the power mode selected (Normal, Power, or Turbo), and whether the powered Dual Floor Max Nozzle is being used or just the stick and a non-powered tool. LG claims that the vacuum can run for up to 60 minutes on normal power mode, but that is only possible when using the stick mode with a non-powered tool. When using the Dual Floor Max Nozzle, I found that the vacuum ran for an average of about 45 minutes on Normal mode, 30 minutes on Power mode, and 10 minutes on Turbo mode. I usually prefer to use the Power mode to make sure that I have enough battery life for the area I'm cleaning. It's powerful enough for all my needs. Turbo mode is very powerful, but I only use it when I need to clean a small area. The battery is removable, so it's easy to replace it with a spare one (sold separately) for longer cleaning sessions. Maintenance: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum is a user-friendly and low-maintenance cleaning device. Its cyclone system and detachable filters can be easily cleaned, making them more durable and efficient. The vacuum also comes with the aforementioned Auto Empty feature that automatically disposes of the dust bin into a bigger bag, keeping your hands, floors, and air free from dust and debris. Additionally, both the vacuum and the tower are highly effective in preventing the spread of debris on the recently cleaned floor. ThinQ App: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum is designed to work together with the ThinQ app seamlessly. I had no trouble pairing the vacuum with the app via Wi-Fi. With the help of the ThinQ app, you can easily keep track of the vacuum's cleaning history and run diagnostics. Additionally, the app offers maintenance tips and tricks to help you optimize the use of your vacuum. The ThinQ app has a straightforward and user-friendly interface that is available on both iOS and Android devices. ----- WHAT’S IN THE BOX ----- 1 x A931KWM CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum 1 x Telescoping Wand 1 x Dual Floor Max Nozzle 1 x Quick Release Battery 1 x Combination Tool 1 x Crevice Tool 1 x Extra Pre-Filter 2 x Tower Bags 1 x Owner Manual for Vacuum 1 x Owner Manual for All-in-One Tower

Plenty of suction, but battery dies quick
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To start off. The LG Cordzero is an excellent vacuum with plenty of suction and light enough to tote around the house, up stairs or down. The dual brush power head is perfect for smooth floors and lower pile carpets. And while the tower to empty, store and charge the Cordzero is a nice feature to have if you have the space. This kit is currently missing a few things to be the true All in One kit to have. Luckily, LG does sell the rest of the kit separately if you feel you need it. Read on for a bit more real world use and opinion. Vacuuming times will vary greatly. In my home I did kind of a rushed plan of attack like friends or family were on the way and I just need to tidy up a bit. I went across all floors and the vacuum rarely needed a second or third pass to appear clean. This is likely thanks to the smooth front roller and brushed rear roller in the powered vacuum head. And the light bar across the front made this easy to see on non-carpeted floors. All cleaning was done on the medium power setting (default when powering on vac). After 13+ minutes the vac ran out of power and turned off. It was enough to briskly clean most of the main floor. Then before putting vac back in tower. I pushed the lever down a couple times to remove fuzzy debris inside vac to make the self empty easier. After the tower emptied the vac, I checked to see how clean it got. And all but a tiny stone was gone. So, pretty good for not having to empty dust cup myself. Time will tell how how often the tower vacuum bag will require changing. Battery life is a bit weak. In my testing I only managed about 13 minutes on the medium (default) suction mode with a 50/50 split of carpet and hardwood cleaning. That is very short in the normal 15-20 minutes many other cordless vacs provided in similar cleaning cycles. While not included in this kit, and the tower does not seem to be able to store or charge, additional batteries are available and larger homes may require more than 1 battery. The tower is nice storage/charger base. However, it is huge and will require extra space many might skip over a simple charger brick. And while there is a lot of storage with the tower. And the tower does include its own vacuum, bag and filter set to keep up on. This kit does not include many of the items that would be stored inside. You do get a spare vacuum bag and filter, plus a crevice nozzle and 2 in 1 duster attachment. You will see many other attachments mentioned in the manuals that are not included, but may be important to your cleaning needs. An extra battery and the little brush to clean the interior of the dust cup seems to be the least of the kit that should have been included at the current price. Overall most will be happy with the Cordzero and tower combo. If dust bunnies and plenty of smooth floor adorns your house. This combo kit will easily keep you charged and the self emptying tower keeps the vac ready for the next vacuuming cleaning. The massive box this kit comes in will likely require muscle help for many to get this home, but once in house. The tower is literally remove from box and plug it in (and maybe secure to wall with included strap). The Cordzero effortlessly just slots in and starts the empty cycle and after a nice melody (LG washer/dryer owners will know this tune) it starts charging. While 4 hours to charge the vac seems excessive. It is doing this while you likely do not need to use the vac. And there is an app to know when the battery is charged again, but I did not find it too helpful beyond that. When the kit goes on sale or includes the extra attachments it will likely then be a Best Buy.

Just This Side of Perfection
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the third “high end” cordless stick vacuum that has come into our household, and might just be the best one yet. The LG CordZero A931 All-In-One Tower Cordless Stick Vacuum with Auto Empty appears just about smack dab in the middle of the models in the CordZero line-up listed on the manufacturer’s web site. The CordZero A931 vacuum comes with a powered, “Dual Floor Max”nozzle that is called out on the packaging and LG’s web site as being “New”. This model appears to be the first and as of now, only model that comes with the Dual Floor Max nozzle. Nozzles are motorized and tools are not in LG’s nomenclature. This nozzle is designed to clean both hard-surface flooring and carpet or rugs without having to make any adjustments to the nozzle when you move from one surface type to another. It also appears to be LG’s first CordZero nozzle with lights on it, 12 separate LEDs across the leading edge of the nozzle, and this feature alone is a BIG game changer when vacuuming hard-surface flooring. Having a light down low, sweeping across the floor makes all of the debris on your floor just jump out at you and makes it so much easier to tell if you have vacuumed the whole area or have missed spots. Previous to having this vacuum I had to turn on every light in the room to see well enough to make sure I was thorough in my cleaning. Having a lighted nozzle makes it easier to clean in a very low-light environment because of the angle from which the light is illuminating the floor. The Dual Floor Max nozzle has two large, soft-rubber wheels at the back of the nozzle so that it rolls across hard floors creating a minimum of additional noise (some vinyl plank floors are quite rough and slightly bumpy) and also rolls easily across carpet. Depending on the nap length of your carpet, you will possibly want to select the lower power mode to make pushing the vacuum easier across carpet as the two most powerful modes suck the nozzle down onto the carpet quite strongly. The motor unit has a comfortable hand grip with three pushbuttons that can be easily operated by your thumb when you are gripping the vacuum. There is a power on/off button so you don’t have to keep a trigger pulled for the motor to run like some competitor’s vacuums, and there are “+” and “-“ buttons to adjust the “suck”. The default power level when you turn on the vacuum is always the middle one, referred to as “Power”. The lower level is called “Normal”, and the strongest level is “Turbo”. One of these buttons is also used to connect the vac to wi-fi so you can utilize the LG ThinQ app on your phone. This app has a number of features, but the one I found most useful is a notification sent to your phone when the vacuum is done recharging. There is a small display on the handle that gives you a readout for remaining battery strength consisting of three small lighted bars inside a battery-shaped icon. I didn’t find this as useful as the “time-remaining" or the numeric “percent-of-charge” information on the other vacuums we have. The display will also use a lighted icon to alert you to a clog somewhere in the system somewhere and when it is time to wash the filters. LG includes substantial and comprehensive printed documentation rather than forcing you to a web site for additional information not included in a quick start guide. I wish all manufacturers did the same. The A931 comes with a single battery (although some models in the CordZero line-up come with two) that is removable from the motor unit and it gave me a run time of 48 minutes and 26 seconds with the vacuum on “Normal” (the lowest of three power settings) and no load on the Dual Floor Max nozzle (meaning it was spinning freely in the air). LG claims up to 60 minutes of run time on the “Normal” power mode with no powered nozzle attached, such as when using a non-powered tool, so I think this is a fair claim with a new battery. Using a motorized nozzle will decrease run time of the vacuum. After running the battery down until the vacuum stopped, the charger took 2 hours and 43 minutes to fully charge the battery. This is much quicker than the 3.5 to 4 hours stated in the manual or on the web site. LG lists batteries as a consumable item, so it is nice to have a removable one for when it ultimately fails - especially since the motor has a 10-year warranty, meaning they expect these vacuums to be around for a long while. Included with the A931 are a “Combination Tool” that is short with a medium-width opening and has a soft-bristle brush that slides back and forth on the tool if needed or not, and a short, stiff-plastic “Crevice Tool” with a narrow opening. LG offers an additional “Total Care Kit” that contains four more tools and a flexible hose. The maintenance section of the owners manual talks of using a cleaning brush (supplied with some models) in a variety of ways when cleaning the vacuum, but the A931 does not come with this brush. This appears to be intentional in order to save money on a brush that probably costs less than 50 cents to make, and really should be included with every model in the line in my opinion. The All-In-One Tower with Auto Empty is the other fabulous feature of this CordZero model. Besides the docking location for the motor head to be charged, the tower also contains a disposable vacuum bag inside of it and when you dock the vacuum, the tower opens the door on the bottom of the dust bin, then collected debris is removed from the dust bin and sucked into the bag in the tower. And when it is done, the door on the dust bin is automatically closed for you! As someone who has used another brand of cordless stick vac with a charging stand that collects debris from the vacuum, and has removed the vacuum from the stand and started using it with the dust bin’s door still open, this is another BIG advantage in my mind. The dust bin on the vacuum has a manually operated slider referred to as the “Kompressor” which you use to remove debris from the cyclonic mesh filter and it then compresses it at the bottom of the dust bin for longer run times between emptying and to aid in the dust bin being thoroughly emptied by the tower. Another clever feature that works very well. The tower also has hidden tool storage for three tools behind the doors on either side of the tower, and has two swing out storage hooks on the exterior for nozzles, thus keeping it looking sleek and clean. Because of how the doors open, the tower fits best angled into a corner in a room so that the doors have room to swing open. When the vac is stored on the tower to charge, the footprint of the whole unit is 10 1/2” x 17 1/2” and the electrical cord is a generous 6 feet long. I was disappointed to learn that there are two models of the All-In-One Tower, as the one that comes with two-battery units has a storage compartment to house and charge the second battery. The tower that comes with the A931 does not accommodate a second battery if you were to buy one separately. This CordZero model comes with a disposable dust bag installed in the tower and one additional bag, and an additional motor pre-filter. This pre-filter, the exhaust filter, and the cyclonic mesh filter are all washable with water and this maintenance is similar to other stick vacs I have used. The All-In-One tower also has a motor-protection filter and an exhaust filter that need periodic cleaning with water. The Dual Floor Max nozzle is easy to disassemble without tools or even a coin to twist open the cap of the powerhead. To remove the rotating brush and roller for cleaning, the end cap has a simple pushbutton to unlock and lock it into place. The LG A931 All-In-One Tower Cordless Stick Vacuum with Auto Empty is a stylish appliance that can be placed in a home where others might see it and it doesn’t have to be stuck away in a closet. This makes it ideal for apartments or condos that may not have sufficient hidden storage or is lacking an electrical outlet to plug it into (none of the closets in our recently built house have electrical outlets). Modern vacuums have come a long way since what your mother had when you were a child and technology has made cords a thing of the past allowing these appliances to have the same or better cleaning performance as some of the best corded vacuums. The A931 is also light enough to make carrying it around the house an easy task and its design features very agile maneuverability making at least one household chore less of a chore. I am searching for the perfect vacuum (can you tell that floors are my job at home?) and this CordZero is oh so close. A tool that is well designed makes the use of it almost pleasurable, and I find the A931 a pleasure to use.

Powerful, Compact, Convenient, But Dies Quickly
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just picked up the new LG - CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum with Dual Floor Max Nozzle and so far, I think it’s neat. I love the look, the charging dock, the storage, the automatic bag empty, almost everything. The one drawback was the battery life at around 10-12 minutes! I listed the pros and cons below. Pros: 1. Innovative Storage and Charging: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum truly stands out with its convenient storage and charging station. The fact that it neatly stores away in the charger is a huge plus, ensuring that the vacuum is always charged and ready to go. This feature adds to the overall convenience and ease of use. 2. Efficient Dirt Collection: The inclusion of a bag within the charging station for dirt collection is a smart design choice. It simplifies the process of emptying the vacuum and keeps the area tidy, which is particularly beneficial for those who prioritize cleanliness and hassle-free maintenance. 3. Versatile Attachments: This version of the vacuum comes equipped with three different head attachments, enhancing its versatility. This allows for a more customized cleaning experience, catering to various surfaces and cleaning needs. 4. Adjustable Size: The ability to extend and shorten the vacuum is a significant advantage. It transforms from a full-sized stick vacuum to a compact handheld device, making it suitable for a variety of cleaning tasks, from floor to ceiling. 5. Powerful Suction: The suction power of this vacuum is impressive. It's so strong that there's often a need to reduce it, highlighting its efficiency in picking up dirt and debris. This level of suction power is a testament to the vacuum's performance capabilities. Cons: 1. Short Battery Life: The most notable downside is the battery life. The vacuum lasts for about 10-12 minutes on a full charge, which is relatively short. This limitation can be a significant drawback for those needing longer cleaning sessions. It's more suitable for quick cleanups rather than extensive vacuuming tasks. It is advertised to have a runtime of 60 minutes, I don’t want to try and be efficient with the power when vacuuming, I want ALL THE POWER when cleaning. Sheesh. Overall Impression: The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum is an excellent choice for quick and efficient cleanups. Its design is thoughtful, with features like a combined storage and charging station, versatile attachments, and adjustable size. However, the short battery life can be a limiting factor for some users. It's ideal for small, quick cleaning tasks like kitchen spills or stair cleaning, but may not be the best option for more prolonged cleaning sessions.

LG – Try Harder…
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.SHORT REVIEW: The LG - CordZero A931KWM All-in-One (AIO) has four enhanced features, versus our current LG A916BM that both my wife and I have been using over the past year, and we both are very satisfied with its performance. The A931 enhanced features include: Auto-Empty, Kompressor Technology, AOI Storage Tower, along with the Lighted Dual Floor Max Nozzle. All in all, a premium priced, better than average “stick vacuum” system that could meet the requirements of a small single floor home. And especially useful for spot cleaning at the higher power settings. Larger two- or three-story homes would be better served with LG’s CordZero vacuums that include dual batteries and AIO Towers that will store and charge a second battery. IN-DEPTH REVIEW BY FEATURES: PACKAGING: Very well thought out with two separate parts boxes, plus a heavy Styrofoam base for the AIO Tower unit. Doubtful any courier would be able to destroy or damage any of the components during shipment. ASSEMBLE: Really couldn’t be easier if you read and follow the User Quick and Maintenance Guides. But honestly, if you have assembled any kind of vacuum, this is as simple as it gets and is very intuitive to put together. CHARGING: The single included battery arrived without any substantial charge and required a good 3.5 hours on the AIO Tower unit. Not a big deal and sort of expected. MAX NOZZLE: Ok, here is where the newly designed “Lighted Dual Floor Max Nozzle” earns its keep. First, I really appreciate being able to actually see the floor illuminated from the LED array; a very functional feature. Second, this dual function design powered head did a great job without major issues on our carpets, hardwoods, and tile flooring. Note that any small throw rugs (example: bathroom rubber-based rugs) caused the power nozzle to drag the rugs around. This required stopping the vacuum, releasing the rug from the nozzle, and then restarting. In all fairness, all of our other vacuums would do the same thing. EXTENDABLE WAND: A great concept with flawless execution, no need to store a second extension wand. Just release the lever (Length Adjustment Button), pull, and extend. Very sweet indeed. POWER ON DEMAND: First, being able to keep a vacuum running, without needing to hold down a power/trigger button, is paramount to overall functionality. Second, this unit not only has a low power base setting, but two additional higher power setting that will increase suction at the expense of greatly reduced battery life (actual run time). KOMPRESSOR: The inclusion of the “Kompressor” components is a welcomed addition that our current A916 is missing. If you own and clean a large home, the ability to compress the debris during vacuuming cuts down on the time one would stop to dump a supposedly filled canister. Quite the time saver. It is also extremely useful if you intend to manually dump and dispose of the canister debris. AIO TOWER: The A931 All-in-One (AIO) Town is fairly inclusive for not only storing the supplied accessories, but also additional accessories if you choose to purchase them. Or, happen to have them on-hand from previous LG A-Series vacuums. Lots of places to hang accessories inside and outside the tower. But it will not store an auxiliary battery. Overall, a very pleasing looking vacuum tower with its stately off-white appearance. AUTO-EMPTY: I have conflicting opinions on the Auto-Empty feature. Initial thoughts were, this is such a great concept without needing to manually empty the power unit. But after a few uses, realizing such a small volume vacuum bag, that holds approximately three full “Kompressed” cleanings, will be quite an expensive option. If money is no object to you, go for it. Because I am somewhat frugal, what I do is dump the large accumulation of compressed debris from the power unit outside in the trash. Then let the Auto-Empty AIO Tower do its thing by initiating a manual self-clean for any remaining fine dust particles. Recognize, using the Auto-Empty feature, you have at least four additional items/steps/cleanings that require direct user maintenance. That’s in addition to the filters, parts, and areas that require cleaning on the power motor unit. And let’s not forget the power nozzle maintenance. Bottom Line: There are numerous components that require removal, cleaning, washing, rinsing, drying for 24 hours, then reassembly. I get it, high-tech precision devices require continual maintenance, there is no getting around it. Just understand having an auto-empty feature adds additional steps, for maintaining peak performance, beyond simply tossing a filled vacuum bag in the trash. MANUALS: Included with the unit are an assortment of hardcopy manuals. In addition, there are PDF manuals that available for downloading, for future reference, when you misplace the hardcopy information. There are numerous online video’s too. NEGATIVES: AIO TOWER: I believe LG should have included the ability to store and charge a second auxiliary battery, similar to their other AIO Towers, and a few of LG’s earlier non-AIO models. I estimate one battery will provide sufficient power, on low, for up to a 1,000 Sq Ft home for a minor quick cleaning. My home is much larger, and I don’t mind purchasing a second battery. But without an easy method to store it and keep it charged, this model limits its overall usefulness for medium to large homes. This deliberate omission can only be attributed to a small cost saving idea, that in reality transforms this AIO Tower system into a less than desirable purchase option. BATTERY LIFE: Like one of the other reviewers, I encountered what I considered very short battery life, about 14 minutes on low power and nowhere near the 60 minutes advertised. And on medium power, I was only able to use for 7 minutes before it shut down. Don’t know if it is attributed to the Max Nozzle with the array of LED’s drawing more power? Maybe a bad or weak battery? (And yes, I understand the advertised 60 minutes has a caveat of not using any powered nozzles.) After speaking with a LG Customer Service Representative, LG offered a replacement battery that I would receive in 7 to 10 business days. VACUUM BAGS: The LG picture of the A931 tower replaceable vacuum bag has a small protruding sliding handle for what I would believe was “easy removal”. The vacuum bag in this tower, along with the second spare bag, has apparently had a redesigned cardboard/fiber top plate and without the sliding handle. And now there is nothing to get a good grip on for removal. The major problem this created, I found it extremely difficult to remove the tower vacuum bag, it is very tightly held in place. So much so, that I felt I was going to break the green plastic bag holder/release mechanism. I ended up having to use pliers to grip the top plate and remove, and even then, it was like pulling teeth. The replacement bag did the same thing, easy to insert, but requiring pliers and excessive force to remove. Not a good or acceptable situation, and one that should have been spotted and corrected by LG Quality Control prior to choosing to use a cheaper vacuum bag option. After speaking with a LG Customer Service Representative, LG was unable to offer a working solution other than suppling a link to a YouTube video on how to replace the dust bag. Ironically, the LG video shows the original bags with the levered sliding top plate. Pliers not required for those… CLEANING BRUSH: Although there is no mention of a cleaning brush being included, it is shown hanging on the right side AIO panel in one of the LG stock photos. And it is shown and referenced for “Cleaning the Kompressor System” in the suppled maintenance guide. This correctly sized brush is required to be able to keep this unit in tip-top clean condition. The brush can not cost more than one dollar, and is just another cost saving idea that I consider counterproductive by not including. RATING: On paper and pictures, the LG - CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum with Dual Floor Max Nozzle A931KWM checks off a lot of boxes. But in actual use, with the short battery life, the very poorly redesigned tower vacuum bags, the inability to store and charge a second battery, and not including a cleaning brush, each caused a lost one-half star. Therefore, the A931KWM earned itself a 3-Star Rating, and I cannot recommend this unit to others.

A great stick vacuum with awesome self-empty mode!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quick Overview ================================= This LG CordZero All-in-One is my second LG vacuum and I've been pleasantly surprised by their quality compared to premium ones like Dyson. This specific model has an "all in one" tower that automatically suctions out the vacuum's dust bin and puts it down into a separate bag for easy, mess-free disposal. Also, the inclusion of a Dual Floor head allows you to clean hard floors and carpets without changing heads. Overall build ================================= Compared to the LG A9 from a big warehouse store, this model feel more premium with nice metal trim and an all-white finish. The All-in-One stand is very nice looking and allows for storage of different tips and nozzles to keep the area looking nice and neat. To access the extra compartments and the suction bag (that empties your dust canister), you just open the left and right sides. As expected, you can hang the vacuum into place and allow it to charge and empty the canister (automatically or manually - just push the buttons at the top). I really like the look of this compared to my old LG. Sure, it was fine an looked like a stick vacuum should look in the post-Dyson era, but this All-in-One stand hides all the clutter nicely. It uses the same batteries as my other LG vacuum, which is nice, given the battery life. Another standout feature, in my opinion, is the Kompressor (not to be confused with Mercedes-Benz's engine tech!) which allows you to slide a lever downward to compress all the hair and dust in the bin to make it more compact and easy to empty. I wish all vacuums had this! My Dyson (with a much larger canister) gets full of hair wrapped around the entire suction area and a "Kompressor" would really help with cleaning it out. Performance ================================= This vacuum is powerful and flexible! For those that suffer from any ailments that prevent them from holding a vacuum "trigger" for a long time, definitely look into the LG ones! With these, you just push a thumb button to turn the vacuum on or off. No need to hold down a button while vacuuming. Suction-wise it's plenty powerful, even lifting up a thin rug easily. We used the Dual Floor Max Nozzle on wooden floors, tile, thick carpet, and rugs with no problems. Based on the amount of dust, debris, and hair (3 girls with long hair!) picked up, it looks like a worthy competitor to our Dyson (though the Dyson has a larger canister). Where the LG can pick up the slack is that it's super-easy to empty the canister to start cleaning again. Just dock it into the All-in-One base and it will automatically (or manually, if you prefer) suction out all the dust and put it into a bag that sits lower in the stand. It happens quickly and powerfully, and once you get used to having an easy-empty canister system like this, you'll never go back to dumping the canisters manually into the trash and having fine dust fly everywhere! Additionally, having the Kompressor to push everything down off of the vacuum canister probably helps the suction system easily empty the canister. My large Dyson takes manual (and dirty!) reaching and pulling to get everything out of the canister. Sure, it's larger and holds more, but it's also a lot more work to clean. The Dual Floor Max nozzle also has LEDs that help illuminate the path of the vacuum which is great under furniture or dark areas. Sure, it's not as cool as Dyson's green beam, but it's just as effective, if not more so. I'd say the only downside is the battery life is very short - it's a powerful vacuum, but it only lasts around 10-11 minutes. I have the good fortune of being able to swap these batteries out with my other LG, but if you don't have two LG vacuums with compatible batteries, that'd put a stop to your cleaning for awhile. Conclusion ================================= Overall, I'd say this is a great vacuum that's easy to use - especially for those that don't like holding down a "trigger" while vacuuming. Yes, the canister is small, but the ability to easily empty it makes up for it! I'd say the downsides include the short battery life and the fact that you'll have to pay for replacement bags (the ones that sit in the All-in-One stand to empty your vacuum canister) constantly. As expected, LG wants you to use new bags all the time, not dump and reuse old bags. All in all, this is now the #1 vacuum in the house due to the ease of use, effective suction/cleaning nozzle, and easy emptying mechanism!

LG CordZero Review: Efficient & User-Friendly
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LG CordZero All-in-One Cordless Stick Vacuum, featuring a Dual Floor Max Nozzle, arrives in a premium package. The box includes: > LG CordZero Vacuum > Auto-Empty Base Station Tower > Telescopic Wand > Dual Floor Max Nozzle > Removable Quick Release Battery (chargeable via tower) > Combination Tool > Crevice Tool > Extra Pre-Filter > 2 Tower Bags > Owner’s Manual Key features include Auto Empty, Kompressor Technology, Dual Floor Max Nozzle, Washable Cyclone and Filters, and a Smart Inverter Motor. [Design and Build Quality] The CordZero's thoughtful design is evident. The tower efficiently stows tools and automates debris disposal. The built-in LEDs in the Dual Floor Max Nozzle illuminate debris, facilitating cleaning. Although predominantly plastic, it has a high-quality feel and is heavier than expected. [Setup and Ease of Use] Setup is straightforward, involving quick assembly and organizing tools in the tower. The user interface simplifies operation, offering easy on/off toggling and power level adjustment. A slide lever for debris removal alongside the internal cylinder is a particularly nice maintenance feature. [Performance] > Suction Power: Offers three levels; the middle setting suffices for daily use. > Battery Life: Adequate for a 2100 sq ft house, with about 30-35 minutes of runtime. Charging from empty takes under 3 hours. > Maneuverability: The Dual Floor Max Nozzle aids in easy navigation, though the vacuum feels heavier with additional attachments. > Noise Level: Comparable to other vacuums, both during operation and auto-emptying at the tower. [Maintenance] The auto-empty feature significantly reduces maintenance. The tower bag fills about halfway in 3-4 days, indicating a weekly or bi-weekly emptying schedule. Washable filters and a dual brush head design in the nozzle reduce maintenance hassle. [Additional Features] Includes the LG ThinQ app for usage history and diagnostics – a bonus for tech-savvy users. [Pros] > Efficient auto-emptying feature. > Compact tower that neatly stores all tools. > 10-year limited motor warranty. > Washable filters. [Cons] > Battery life is shorter compared to some other high-end models. > Squeaky wheels on the Dual Floor Max Nozzle on hardwood floors during turns. [Conclusion] Competitively priced, offering good value considering the features and compared to other high-end vacuums.Highly recommended for those seeking a functional, maintainable, and user-friendly cordless vacuum. Particularly worth considering if found on sale.

Powerful machine
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Light easy to use powerful motor, I have two dogs in my house and I have dog hair on my floors all the time but with this vacuum I can clean my floors fast and easy before going to work is amazing that I don’t have hairs sticking to the roll on the bottom of the vacuum. I don’t have to get my hands dirty trying to empty trash compartment all I have to do is put it back on the tower and it cleans itself that’s a plus for my daily routine. The battery does run out of power kind of fast on high but I use it on medium and it last me the time that i need to vacuum my house.

Nice choice for hard floors
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A lightweight, beautiful handheld option for hard floors. Very smart looking with the docking station. Easily connected to wifi. Love having the self-empty feature. Battery life could be better, but with the purchase of a second battery it meets our needs for longer cleaning days.

LG-CordZero All-in-One works well
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first cordless vac and I’m impressed with the suction, so better than I expected. The battery comes up short, should have/need a second battery. The dual roller head with brush and roller works good on all surfaces. This vacuum works great in tight spaces too. Nice perk is the LED light in the head. The charging station works good with the self-emptying feature.

Solid vacuum
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this LG vacuum to replace another LG vacuum. I would say it is equally as good however the battery does seem to drain quicker in this one. Also I wish it came with multiple batteries. The charging/emptying stand had plenty of space to accolade another battery so that was an unnecessary omission on their part.

Self Emptying Feature is worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the self emptying feature. It was the main reason I got it. I also like the ability to extend the wand. What I don't like is the short battery life and no place for additional attachments. It would be nice to have a hook on the wand to hold the crevice tool. A cleaning status indicator would've been nice to have too.

Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded from a regular Hoover vacuum which stopped working less than a year after purchasing. I’m a big fan of LG so I decided to go all out and purchase a CordZero as a replacement. I don’t regret it at all. The cleaning power of the LG is equivalent to my old vacuum and the fact that it’s cordless makes it even better. I can vacuum my house and then go vacuum my car at the same time. And it’s super convenient with the self emptying tower. Just dock the vacuum and it does the rest. It does take a while to charge, and using turbo mode will drain the battery quickly. I found that using the second highest setting will get me through the whole house and car. Definitely recommend this vacuum.
