The Fraction is a cordless stick vacuum from French company Deglace that was shown at CES 2026. It is designed so every major component can be replaced by hand without tools. The vacuum uses an aluminum body and a simple, functional appearance rather than a decorative finish. Deglace says the aim is to reduce waste and make repairs easier for owners.
Key details:
- Every major part—including the battery, motor, dustbin, filters, main section and display—is reported as user-replaceable by hand.
- The vacuum uses a washable HEPA 14 filter with a fabric pre-filter.
- The company reports the prototype offers 250 air watts of suction and showed pickup demonstrations at CES.
- The floor head includes 10 UVC LEDs intended for sanitizing; the lights are designed to warn (via headlight flicker) if the device is moved too quickly for effective exposure.
- The product includes AI features for smart battery management and wear monitoring through a companion app.
- Deglace says it has a distributor in France and that U.S. preorders are available on Indiegogo at a listed price of $500, with shipments expected in 2026.
Summary:
If the replaceable-parts approach is delivered along with the planned support ecosystem, the design addresses repairability and longer-term maintenance for a cordless stick vacuum. The company plans shipments in 2026 and is accepting preorders on Indiegogo; broader availability and long-term parts support are undetermined at this time.
