Riccar manufactures premium vacuum cleaners, including upright, canister, and central vacuum systems, known for their durability and Tandem Air two-motor technology.
Riccar is a well-established brand in the floor care industry, originally founded in 1939 as a sewing machine manufacturer in Japan. Today, operated by the Tacony Corporation in Fenton, Missouri, Riccar is best known for its high-performance vacuum cleaners engineered in the USA.
The brand distinguishes itself with its signature Tandem Air technology, which utilizes two distinct cleaning motors to maximize suction and carpet agitation. Riccar’s product lineup includes lightweight uprights, powerful canister vacuums, cordless stick vacuums, and central vacuum systems. While legacy sewing machines bearing the Riccar name still exist, the modern brand is exclusively focused on providing durable, high-filtration cleaning solutions sold primarily through independent retailers.
