Suction power, grounded in the tracked lineup
Pa ratings are manufacturer-specified, not measured airflow — but the distribution still shows where the market clusters and which models sit above it.
What the data supports
- Most tracked models cluster between 4,000 and 8,000 Pa; above that is marketing territory as much as cleaning territory.
- Owners rarely cite Pa numbers directly — they cite pet hair and carpet results. Treat suction as a capability floor, not a verdict.
| Suction band | Models |
|---|---|
| Under 3,000 Pa | 24 |
| 3,000–5,499 Pa | 27 |
| 5,500–7,999 Pa | 28 |
| 8,000–11,999 Pa | 23 |
| 12,000 Pa and up | 20 |
