The verdictOur take

The R18DB is HiKOKI's 18V stick vacuum, with a 0.56L container, 21 l/s of airflow and 4.5 kPa of suction at 1kg bare; it is sold body only. With suction control, an LED light and a washable filter it is a light clean-up tool for vans, cars and the site hut on HiKOKI's 18V packs. We rate it a sound basic stick for 18V owners; the R36DA has 22 kPa of suction and 155 air watts against this one's 40, while the R18DSL is a wet & dry handheld at 0.85kg.
