About Riccar R10P Supralite Premium Lightweight Vacuum
Riccar R10P SupraLite Premium: lightweight floor-cleaning convenience
Choose the R10P when carrying and maneuvering a lightweight upright matter to you. Its 9-pound design and 40-foot cord make it a practical option for moving between rooms.
Premium features for everyday cleaning
- Two-speed motor: choose the setting appropriate for the cleaning task.
- Bagged cleanup: a self-sealing HEPA media bag helps contain collected dirt during replacement.
- Brush protection: a Hall sensor detects a jam so you can stop and clear the obstruction.
- Floor-cleaning details: rubber wheels, a non-marking bumper and a bare-floor squeegee support everyday use.
- Serviceable brush: the metal brush roll has replaceable brush strips.
Lightweight upright or full-size machine?
The R10P is a good starting point when your priority is lightweight floor cleaning. If built-in above-floor tools and a full-size carpet-cleaning upright are higher priorities, compare the Riccar R40 Tandem Air. For a steering upright with adjustable suction, compare the SEBO FELIX Premium.

Start with the floor types and cleaning-head details listed for this model. For delicate rugs or specialty flooring, ask an Imperial specialist to confirm the safest setup.
What should I compare besides suction?
Cleaning-head design, airflow, filtration, handling, reach, capacity and serviceability usually matter more than a single advertised power number.
