The Riccar Vacuum Lineup — Which Series Is Right for You?
Tandem Air Series — R40P and R30D
Riccar's flagship technology. Two independent motors — one dedicated to brushroll agitation, one dedicated to suction — working simultaneously at full power. The result is deep carpet cleaning that no single-motor vacuum can match. The R40P Premium Pet is Riccar's most powerful and complete upright, adding a 7-stage sealed HEPA system, dirt sensor, and the self-cleaning Fur-Get-It pet tool. The R30D Deluxe delivers the same Tandem Air dual-motor performance at a significantly better value.
Clean Air Series — R27D, R27P, and R27CV
Riccar's Clean Air technology filters dirt through the HEPA system before it reaches the motor — maintaining strong, consistent suction as the bag fills and protecting the motor from fine dust. The R27D Clean Air Deluxe adds two brushroll speeds, brushroll on/off, LED headlights, and a lifetime belt. The R27P Premium Pet adds dedicated pet tools and a dust and allergen sensor. The R27CV delivers the same Clean Air performance in a completely cordless design.
Spirit Series — R21 and R21 Plus
Riccar's most accessible full-size upright vacuums — engineered to be the easiest full-size uprights to push and maneuver, with an auto-adjusting nozzle, lay-flat design, 3-stage HEPA filtration, metal brushroll, and a 30-foot cord. The Spirit R21 is Riccar's best value full-size upright at $499.99. The Spirit Plus R21Plus adds dual LED headlights, a bare floor tool with microfiber pad, and a stainless steel wand for $629.99. Both are assembled in St. James, Missouri.
Lightweight Series — R17, R10P, R10S, R10E, R10CV
Riccar's lightweight uprights are designed for easy carrying between floors and reduced operator fatigue — ideal for multi-story homes, stairs, and users who find full-size uprights heavy. The R17 and R10P are the premium models with advanced features. The R10S and R10E offer Riccar quality at more accessible price points. The R10CV delivers lightweight performance in a fully cordless design.
Cordless and Specialty — R65, R70, RSQ, GEM
The R65 is Riccar's cordless stick vacuum for quick daily cleaning. The R70 Multi-Clean combines dry vacuuming, wet mopping, and floor steaming in one cordless machine. The RSQ SupraQuik is a compact canister for quick targeted cleaning. The GEM is a powerful handheld for stairs, upholstery, and above-floor cleaning.
Central Vacuums — RCU-H5 and RCU-H7
Riccar central vacuum systems provide whole-home cleaning power with virtually no noise in the living space. The RCU-H5 Standard and RCU-H7 Deluxe are built-in systems with HEPA filtration, installed by our technicians at our Crystal, MN location.
