New Clarke CarpetMaster 218 17.5" Dual-Motor Upright Vacuum
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The CarpetMaster 218 is the widest of Clarke's 200 Series dual-motor uprights, built for long corridors, lobbies, gyms and open office floors in schools, hospitals and government buildings. Its 17.5-inch path covers more carpet per pass, and a dedicated 350-watt brush motor runs the brush while a separate 1,000-watt two-stage motor handles suction, so agitation and airflow work independently.
What stands out is where Clarke put the vacuum motor: down in the base. That keeps the handle light even on the widest model, which helps on a long route. The HEPA exhaust filter is standard, the brush stops when you pull the quick-draw wand for edges and furniture, and the crevice and upholstery tools ride on board.
The trade-off is the wide head. In rooms full of desks, chairs and beds it takes more maneuvering, so for furnished spaces the 11.5-inch 212 or 14.5-inch 215 is the better fit, with the same motors and features.”
A dual-motor upright with the vacuum motor in the base.
The Clarke CarpetMaster 218 is a dual-motor commercial upright vacuum with a 17.5-inch (44.5 cm) cleaning path. A 1,000-watt, two-stage vacuum motor and a separate 350-watt brush motor run independently, giving 92 inches of water lift and 93 cfm with a dual-row chevron nylon brush at 2,800 rpm. The vacuum motor sits in the base for a lighter handle, and the brush stops when the wand is in use.
Filtration combines a 2-ply paper bag with 4.2-quart capacity, a motor protection filter and a standard HEPA exhaust filter. A quick-draw wand with a 4:1 stretch hose, crevice tool and upholstery tool is stored on board, and a full bag/clog light, tool-free brush change and cog-style sealed belt keep upkeep simple. It runs on a 50-foot safety-yellow cord, is rated at 69 dBA and weighs 22 lb with the cord.
