LG Kompressor Vacuum Review & Giveaway

I have always loved LG products.  My phone and my parents washer and dryer are LG but I never knew LG made vacuum cleaners.  When I was asked to review LG’s new LuV300B Kompressor Vacuum – LG’s first line of vacuum cleaners in the U.S. market- I was ecstatic!!  First off, it's LG so I figured it had to be awesome.  Then I started reading about the vacuum and I was so impressed with all of it's many features.

The vacuum arrived quickly and was packaged very nice.  There were only a few pieces to put together and I had no problem doing this myself.  I have owned a Rainbow, Kirby & have used a Dyson.  Let me start by saying the LG Kompressor is my favorite vacuum EVER!  There is no water, no bags, no heads to switch and the power on this thing is amazing!!

It Cleans Better

 • LG’s patented Kompressor® technology utilizes the world’s first motorized compression system to compress dust intake and hold three times more household dust than non-compressor models.

 • With DualForce™ suction technology, two additional air pathways pick up dirt from both sides of the vacuum head in addition to the traditional center section, enabling users to capture dust and debris over a wide surface area and in hard-to-reach edges.

This vacuum picks up things a regular vacuum just can't get.  I get some nasty things stuck on my carpet (gotta love kids!) and the Kompressor sucked them up no problem where with a regular vacuum I would be trying to pull and scrape it off my carpet.  You don't have to go over and over an area and you would be amazed at how much dirt (and other junk) this vacuum can hold!  I love not having to dump it so often.

It’s More Efficient

• For those with children, there is a compartment designed to capture toys and other items that may accidentally be vacuumed up while cleaning in a separate area away from any dust/debris for easy recovery.

I can't tell you all of the things I have vacuumed up before & there was NO WAY I would go dig for them!!  I accidentally vacuumed up a penny with the Kompressor and was pleasantly surprised to find it nice and clean in a separate little compartment.  This should be standard on all vacuums :o)

• LG’s versatile Click 'N Go™ wand detaches from the base, providing up to 15 feet of additional reach for easier cleaning of stairs, upholstery, and other out-of-the-way areas.



• A built in RF™ (radio-frequency) control allows users to adjust power and settings conveniently from the Click ‘N Go wand without going back to the base.


• The LuV300B features an extra-long 40-foot cord making it easier to clean a larger area in less time without having to switch outlets multiple times to reach the entire space.

LG put so much thought into every detail of this vacuum-  It is well designed and constructed.  As a busy mom this is the perfect vacuum.  A wand that attaches from the vacuum (very easily) and has a great attachment for cleaning stairs and other smaller areas.  You can turn the vacuum on and off from this handle when you are using it- You do not have to go back to the vacuum.  The long cord is one of my favorite things.  I hate vacuuming and being halfway done to have the cord come unplugged.  I have not had that problem with this vacuum, it can reach!  I think this vacuum was designed just for the busy mom (which makes it great for everyone!). 

It Reduces Exposure to Allergens

 • The LuV300B is certified asthma & allergy friendly™ by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA).


 • The vacuum’s powerful engine also provides superior suction power, picking up 99 percent of dust on hard floor surfaces and 70 percent of dust on carpets, while its HEPA filter captures 99.97 percent of allergens such as dust mites and pet dander.

No one in my immediate family suffers from allergies but my mom and sister are both allergic to my cat who has 7 kittens.  It is nice to know that this vacuum is keeping my house cleaner by capturing the pet dander. 

 Comes with a Stylish Design

 • The sleek styling and eye-catching Riviera Blue finish is sure to complement the décor of any home.

I love the look of this vacuum.  Some vacuums are still ugly but not the Kompressor.

When I first used the vacuum I was surprised at how light it was to move.  When I turned it on it got significantly heavier (not too much though!).  This was just the power of the vacuum on high.  My sister commented on how my carpet looked clean and it was still picking up dirt/debris.  The vacuum is very simple to empty.  You put it over a garbage and push a button and it dumps.  I have not found anything I did not like about this vacuum.  LG did an amazing job with the Kompressor!
