About the R27 Pet Premium
The Riccar R27 Pet Premium (R27P) is a bagged upright set up for homes with pets. Its dust and allergen sensor turns on amber headlight indicators while an area is still dirty and switches them off once it is clean, so you know when to move on.

- Edge-to-edge nozzle pulls pet hair from baseboards and corners
- Up to 15 feet of cleaning reach with hose and telescoping wand
- 35-foot power cord
- Pleated HEPA filter and self-sealing bag capture 99.97% of dust, dander and allergens down to 0.3 microns
- Fur Get It Pet Tool, crevice tool, upholstery tool and dusting brush, stored on board
- Non-marking furniture guard

Who the R27 Pet Premium is for
Homes with dogs or cats, carpet and some hard floors. It weighs 19 lb, has a 35-foot cord, and its edge-cleaning nozzle pulls hair from baseboards and corners.
The dust sensor
In carpet mode, two amber lights at the edges of the path stay on while it’s still picking up dirt. When only the white headlights are lit, move on. If the amber lights stay on all the time, the sensor eye may be coated: Riccar’s fix is to vacuum a little uncooked rice.
Pet tools
The Fur Get It pet hair remover is for upholstery, stairs and car seats (Riccar says not to use it on pets). A crevice tool, an upholstery tool and a dusting brush ride on board, and the hose and telescoping wand reach up to 15 feet.
Bag and filters
A self-sealing HEPA bag and a pleated HEPA filter capture 99.97% of dust and dander down to 0.3 microns. Filters come as the RF27 set. Change the bag once a month or when the full-bag light comes on; bags are single-use.
Safety stops
A jam sensor stops the brushroll and flashes the headlights red if something gets caught. If it overheats from a full bag or clog, the motors stop; clear it and press the reset on the back.
Warranty and proof
Riccar covers the R27 Pet Premium for 5 years in household use; warranty service goes through an authorized Riccar retailer like us. The Carpet and Rug Institute lists the R27P with its Gold Seal through September 2027.
Compare it with
No pets? The R27 Deluxe costs $100 less. Deep carpet and heavy shedding: the Tandem Air 40 Series Premium, with two motors and sealed HEPA filtration.
