I have both models - 180 and the newer 181. I can say that this 180 is more convenient. Here the whole structure is longer and for a height of 175 cm you do not need to bend down. You need it at 181, it’s not very comfortable, literally a couple of cm are missing. Plus, this one is more convenient with a on - you press and hold it - it vacuums, you go to the next room, you release the on and it doesn’t thresh in vain. On 181, turning on the on, in order to turn it off, you need to either bend down or raise the body of the duster - again an inconvenience. Yes, there is no backlight at 180, but considering how frail it is at 181 + not switchable, then for me this is even a plus! According to the work itself - 5-ruble coins easily both models. Both are easy to clean. But! Who does not have a Makitovsky battery of 18 Volts, the dust is useless, well, or you will have to buy additional batteries (3-6 thousand, depending on the capacity) and charging.
