Lupe Technology Closes: A Loss to the Vacuum Industry

Lupe Technology, a UK-based innovator in the vacuum cleaner market, has unfortunately ceased operations. Known for its flagship product, the Lupe Pure cordless vacuum, the company was celebrated for its commitment to sustainability and high performance within the industry.

About Lupe Technology

Founded by former Dyson engineers Pablo Montero and Lucas Horne, Lupe Technology was dedicated to revolutionizing the vacuum cleaner industry with durable, high-performance products featuring easily replaceable parts. The Lupe Pure cordless vacuum, developed over five-plus years, exemplified the company’s vision for long-term product sustainability and practical performance.

Lupe Pure Cordless Vacuum

In our 2020 review (YouTube), the Lupe Pure cordless vacuum impressed us with its superior design and functionality, quickly becoming recognized as a top-tier product in its category. Additionally, Lupe’s innovative “unsealed suction test” influenced Vacuum Wars to overhaul our own testing methods (YouTube) โ€”a legacy that continues to impact our reviews today.

Future Hopes

As Lupe Technology concludes its operations, Vacuum Wars remains hopeful about the future endeavors of the Lupe team. Their forward-thinking approach to product design and sustainability has profoundly influenced consumer expectations and established new standards for the industry. At Vacuum Wars, we acknowledge and appreciate the significant impact Lupe Technology has made on the market.

End Notes

  1. Vacuum Wars attempted to contact Lupe Technology via Instagram direct message when we first heard about the closure, but we did not receive a response.
  2. The 2020 review of the Lupe Pure was conducted with a unit provided by the company. Since then, Vacuum Wars has adopted a policy against accepting free products or sponsorships to maintain our unbiased review process.
