GAVASTO Pro review
A 1,500-watt automatic dustpan with three ways to start it, a big 7-quart bin and a hose tucked in the back. It made my daily sweeping faster and easier on my back. It is not quiet, and it is not a replacement for a real vacuum.
In this review
The GAVASTO Pro takes the most annoying part of sweeping, the dustpan, and gets rid of it. I sweep, it swallows the pile, and I never bend down. The three activation modes and the built-in hose make it more flexible than a basic automatic dustpan. If you sweep hard floors often, especially with pets or kids around, it is easy to recommend. If you sweep once a week or live with wall-to-wall carpet, save your money.
- No bending, no dustpan, no line of dust left behind

- Five-layer filtration plus a four-layer pre-motor filter
- Advertised five-year warranty
- About as loud as a regular vacuum while it runs

What the GAVASTO Pro actually is
The GAVASTO Pro Touchless Vacuum is a stationary vacuum that replaces your dustpan.
It stands on the floor against a wall, plugs into a normal outlet and waits for you to bring the dirt to it.
You sweep a pile toward the low intake at the front, and the motor kicks in and pulls everything into the bin.
Then it goes quiet again.
If you have ever seen a built-in kickplate vacuum in a salon or a commercial kitchen, it is the same idea in a freestanding box.
No installation, no cabinet surgery, just a plug.
What sets the GAVASTO apart from the simpler machines in this category is that it tries to do a bit more.
It has a 1,500-watt motor, which is more than the 1,000-watt EyeVac Home and the 1,400-watt EyeVac Pro.
It has three different ways to start the suction instead of one.
And it has a hose with a nozzle hidden in the back, so you can use it as a small canister vacuum for spots a broom cannot reach.
GAVASTO says the design started out for salons and grooming shops, and markets it to hotels and small businesses as well as homes.
I used it the way most buyers will: as a daily helper on hard floors at home.
The GAVASTO Pro needs a wall, a hard floor and an outlet within reach. That is the whole setup.
First impressions and setup
Out of the box, the first thing I noticed was how tidy it looks.
It is a black, rounded box with a copper-colored top panel where the controls sit, and it reads more like a small appliance than a shop vac.
That matters, because this is a machine that lives out in the open.
If it looked ugly, I would hide it in a closet, and then I would never use it.
The Amazon listing puts it at about 16.5 by 12.5 by 7 inches and around 10 pounds.
That is compact enough to tuck into the end of a kitchen run, and light enough to pick up with one hand when I mop.
It is still a lot bigger than a dustpan, though.
You need a permanent spot for it, and in a small apartment that spot is not free.
Setup took about as long as unpacking.
I put it against the wall where my sweeping route naturally ends, plugged it in, and it was ready.
Placement is the single most important decision with any touchless vacuum.
Put it where your broom already goes and it becomes a habit within days.
Put it in an awkward corner and you will be back to the dustpan by the weekend.
The cord is the limiting factor here.
Because it is corded, the GAVASTO can only live within reach of an outlet, which ruled out a couple of spots I would have preferred.
One thing that is not in the box is a broom.
Any upright broom works, but a flat broom with angled bristles makes it easier to push a tight pile right up to the intake.
The three modes, and why they matter
Most automatic dustpans have one trick: an infrared sensor that starts the motor when debris comes close.
The GAVASTO Pro has three ways to start, and after living with it, I think this is its smartest feature.
Auto sensing mode
This is the mode I used most.
The sensors at the front detect the pile coming toward them and the suction starts by itself.
Sweep, push, gone.
For routine daily sweeping, it is the most convenient way to use the machine, because I never have to touch it.
The flip side of any sensor is that it can react to things you did not intend, like a foot or a curious pet walking past.
That is exactly why the other two modes are useful.
Tap mode
In tap mode, you sweep the pile to the machine and then give the lower front a light tap with the broom to start the suction.
It sounds like a gimmick, but it gives you control without bending down.
I liked it when I wanted to gather a bigger pile first and only switch on once, instead of letting the sensor fire repeatedly as I swept in several small loads.
Manual mode
Manual mode is the simplest: you press the button and it runs.
It is the mode for when you want the machine to stay off until you decide otherwise, and it is the mode I would pick in a home where pets or kids keep wandering past the sensor.
Having all three means the GAVASTO adapts to how you clean, instead of forcing one way of working on you.
If you only ever want the basic auto function, the extra modes will feel unnecessary, and that is fine.
But they cost you nothing, and they solve the most common complaint people have with sensor-only models.
Push the pile to the intake and let the sensor start it, or give the front a tap with the broom.
Performance by type of mess
The whole point of this machine is to make collecting everyday debris quicker and less physically demanding.
On that front, the GAVASTO Pro delivers.
Kitchen crumbs and dry food
This is where I used it most, and where it earns its keep.
Crumbs, spilled cereal, rice, coffee grounds and the general grit that collects under a dining table disappear as soon as they reach the intake.
The biggest improvement over a dustpan is that thin line of dust that never quite makes it onto the pan.
The GAVASTO pulls that in too, so the floor is actually clean when I am done.
The intake opening is not huge, so I learned to break up or pick up anything chunky by hand.
Fine and small debris is what it is built for.
Wet messes are a different story.
This is a dry-debris machine, so spilled yogurt or soggy cereal still needs a cloth.
Pet hair and tracked-in dirt
Pet owners are a big part of the audience for this kind of machine, and I can see why.
Fur tumbleweeds, scattered kibble and the dirt that comes in on paws are exactly the daily mess a touchless vacuum was made for.
There is no rotating brush roll at the intake, so hair has nothing to wrap around.
It goes straight into the bin, and that alone makes it more pleasant to live with than a regular vacuum for this job.
The 1,500-watt motor gives it enough pull to grab the fine dust that hair tends to drag along with it.
Cut hair in salons and home haircuts
GAVASTO designed this vacuum with salons in mind, and hair is one of the easiest jobs for it.
After a haircut, you sweep the pile to the base and it vanishes, without the clump that always sticks to the lip of a dustpan.
For a barbershop chair, a grooming table or a family that cuts the kids’ hair at home, this is a very natural fit.
Hair is one of the easiest jobs for a touchless vacuum: no brush roll means nothing to tangle.
Wood shavings, grit and the garage
Light debris like wood shavings, leaf bits and dried mud are no problem as long as the pieces are small.
Screws, gravel and larger offcuts are a different matter, and I would not try to feed them in.
For a sealed garage floor or a hobby corner, it is a nice way to keep the floor clean between bigger cleanups.
For real construction dust, a shop vac with a proper filter is still the right tool.
Carpet and rugs
The listing says it suits all floors, but in practice it only takes what you can sweep to it.
You cannot sweep a rug, so for carpet, upholstery and stairs you still need a regular vacuum.
The hose helps with small spots, which I cover next, but it does not turn this into a carpet cleaner.
Watch it in action
The hose and nozzle
The included hose and nozzle are what make the GAVASTO more than a basic automatic dustpan.
GAVASTO calls this tool mode, as opposed to floor mode.
The nozzle sits docked in the front of the machine, and you pull it out when you need it.
I used it for corners, along baseboards, under the edge of furniture and in the gaps a broom simply cannot reach.
It is also handy for crumbs on a chair seat or a table, or a quick pass along a windowsill.
The reach is limited, because the machine itself stays put and you are tethered to it.
So think of it as a spot-cleaning tool for the area around where the vacuum lives, not a whole-room solution.
Even so, it means I reach for the big vacuum less often for tiny jobs.
If you only ever want to sweep piles into it, you will probably never use the hose.
For me it turned out to be one of the features I appreciated most.
The hose nozzle docks in the front of the unit, ready for corners, furniture and crevices.
Noise
GAVASTO promotes the Pro as a low-noise design.
In my experience, it sounds very much like a conventional vacuum cleaner while it is running.
Plenty of other owners say the same thing, so I would not buy it expecting a whisper.
What makes it easy to live with is that it only runs in short bursts.
The suction comes on for a few seconds to swallow a pile and then stops, instead of droning on for the whole sweeping session.
That makes a real difference.
I stopped noticing the noise after the first few days, but it can startle pets at first, and I would not trigger it next to a sleeping baby.
If noise is a deal-breaker for you, manual or tap mode at least lets you choose exactly when it goes off.
Emptying and filters
The bin holds 7 quarts, which is about 6.6 liters.
For a machine that only takes in swept piles, that is a lot of space.
It is noticeably bigger than the roughly 4-liter canister on the EyeVac Home, and it means fewer trips to the trash can.
That large capacity is especially useful in homes with frequent debris or heavy shedding, and in salons where hair piles up all day.
The design is bagless, so there are no dust bags to buy.
You pull out the bin, empty it into the trash and put it back.
Like every bagless vacuum, emptying it can puff out a bit of dust, so I do it straight over the trash can.
Filtration is a strong point on paper.
GAVASTO uses a five-layer filtration system to capture dust before the air leaves the machine, plus a separate four-layer pre-motor filter to keep hair and dirt away from the motor.
Amazon lists the filter type as HEPA.
That pre-motor filter is the part that collects a layer of fine dust and hair, and it is what keeps the motor protected over time.
Regularly emptying the bin and cleaning the filters is the simple routine that keeps performance up.
Let any washed filter dry completely before putting it back, otherwise you risk a musty smell.
Running costs beyond that are close to zero, apart from a little electricity.
A 7-quart bin is generous for a stationary vacuum, which helps on busy days with lots of hair.
Warranty and support
GAVASTO advertises a five-year warranty on the Pro.
That is long for this category, where one or two years is more typical.
It is worth registering the product as soon as it arrives.
Several owners on Amazon say registration took just a few minutes, and a number of them praise how quickly the company responded when they had a problem.
For a lesser-known brand, a long warranty and responsive support go a long way toward making the purchase feel safe.
What other owners say
On Amazon, the GAVASTO Pro sits at about 4.5 out of 5 stars from more than 500 ratings, with nearly 80% of them five stars.
That is a smaller review base than the EyeVac Home, but the picture lines up well with my own experience.
The praise centers on performance and ease of use.
Dog owners in particular describe it handling large amounts of shed hair, and parents mention how quickly it clears up spilled snacks.
Several owners single out the built-in hose as a handy extra.
The criticism is consistent too.
Noise comes up again and again, usually with the same conclusion I reached: it is loud, but only for a few seconds.
One owner noted the intake opening is fairly small and clogged on larger broken snack pieces, which matches my advice to pick up anything chunky by hand.
Another had a unit that kept switching on by itself for a while, which settled down after plugging it back in at its original spot.
Opinions on long-term durability are mixed, which is one more reason to register that five-year warranty.
Others ask for a longer cord, a wish I share.
Is it worth the money?
The GAVASTO Pro is not a cheap way to replace a dustpan.
So the real question is not whether it works, but whether you sweep often enough for it to matter.
If you sweep once a week, a plain dustpan does the same job for a fraction of the price.
If you sweep the kitchen several times a day because of a dog, a toddler or a busy cooking routine, it saves you dozens of small bends every week and makes the job faster.
For anyone with back or knee trouble, the value case is even stronger.
Being able to clean up without bending down can be the difference between doing it yourself and leaving it.
Compared with other touchless vacuums, you get a stronger motor, a bigger bin, three activation modes, a hose and a longer warranty than most.
The price moves around a lot and it is often discounted, so check the current price on Amazon before you buy.

The EyeVac Home is the best-known name in this category and has a much deeper review record.
If all you want is the simplest possible automatic dustpan from an established brand, it is a safe choice.
The GAVASTO Pro beats it on paper almost everywhere: more power, a bigger bin, more activation options, a hose and a longer warranty.
If you want a machine that does a little more than swallow piles, the GAVASTO is the more capable pick.
Final verdict
The GAVASTO Pro is a practical way to make everyday cleanup less tedious.
Automatic operation, three activation modes, a generous bin and a hose for spot cleaning make it one of the more versatile machines in this category.
Its biggest strength is convenience, especially for households that deal with pet hair, food crumbs or tracked-in dirt every day.
The noise and the cord are worth thinking about before you buy.
And it does not replace a regular vacuum for carpets and whole-house cleaning.
But if your goal is to simplify daily sweeping and retire the dustpan for good, the GAVASTO Pro is well worth a place on your floor.
Frequently asked questions
Does the GAVASTO Pro work on carpet?
Only with the hose for small spots. The main intake takes what you sweep to it, so it is made for hard floors like wood, tile, vinyl, laminate and sealed concrete.
What are the three modes?
Auto sensing starts the suction when debris comes close. Tap mode starts it when you tap the lower front with your broom. Manual mode runs when you press the button.
Is it loud?
Yes, about as loud as a regular vacuum while it runs. It only runs for a few seconds at a time, which makes it much easier to live with.
How big is the bin?
It holds 7 quarts, about 6.6 liters, and it is bagless, so there are no bags to buy.
Can it pick up wet messes?
No. It is meant for dry debris. Wipe up liquids and wet food with a cloth.
Is a broom included?
No. Any upright broom works, ideally one with angled, fairly stiff bristles.
What warranty does it have?
GAVASTO advertises a five-year warranty. Register the product soon after it arrives.
