Standard is the base configuration in Riccar's Clean Air R25 line, and the R25S carries the same fundamental design as the R25D above it: an upright that routes airflow through the bag before it reaches the motor, the arrangement the Clean Air name refers to across the whole family.As the Standard trim, the R25S gives buyers the core R25 chassis and Clean Air filtration without the additional features Riccar reserves for the Deluxe configuration, which makes it the more accessible entry point into that platform rather than a different machine underneath.It remains a bagged upright, so dust and debris stay contained in a sealed bag through disposal rather than sitting exposed in an open bin, the same filtration approach that runs through the entire R25 line regardless of trim.For a lot of households, the base trim in a well-built line is the more sensible purchase than the fully loaded one. If the extras Riccar reserves for the Deluxe configuration are not things you would use often, the Standard R25S delivers the same everyday filtration and the same chassis at a more accessible price, without asking you to pay for features that would sit unused. Riccar authorizes Vacuums and More to sell the full R25 line, and we can compare the Standard R25S against the Deluxe R25D directly so you know exactly what the step up buys you.
