About Riccar SupraLite R17 Premium Lightweight Vacuum
Riccar SupraLite R17: lightweight cleaning with a soft-carpet baseplate
The R17 deserves a closer look when carrying weight and plush-carpet handling matter to you. Bring your carpet details to Imperial so we can help confirm the right setup.
Why choose R17?
- A 9-pound upright with a baseplate designed for soft carpet.
- A two-speed motor and 40-foot cord.
- A self-sealing, charcoal-infused HEPA media bag.
- A bare-floor squeegee and replaceable brush strips.
- A Hall sensor that detects jams so you can stop and clear them.
Compare your Riccar options
Compare the R10P SupraLite Premium for another lightweight floor-cleaning option. Compare the R30 Tandem Air Deluxe when onboard hose and tool access are higher priorities.
Ask Imperial to confirm warranty terms and any participating-retailer service benefits for your exact model.

Questions shoppers ask before buying
How do I know whether it fits my floors?
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.
Can Imperial help after the sale?
Yes. Imperial specialists can help with setup, compatible supplies and service options. Parts and service availability vary by brand and model.

Floor fit
Check the listed carpet, rug and hard-floor capabilities instead of assuming every cleaning head works the same way.
Air path
Bag style, filtration and body sealing all influence dust containment; a filter label alone does not tell the whole story.
Handling
Weight, cord or battery format, hose reach and tool access determine how the machine feels in the home.
Ownership
Service access, replaceable wear parts and ongoing bag or filter availability matter after the first cleaning.
