An outer rotor motor includes an inner stator and an outer rotor. The inner stator includes a stator frame and a stator unit mounted to the stator frame. The outer rotor includes a shaft and a rotor unit fixed to the shaft. The stator frame is integrally formed from plastic as an integral structure and comprises a base and a hub extending from the base, the hub forms a chamber therein, supporting components are installed in the chamber, and the shaft extends into the chamber and supported by the supporting components such that the shaft is rotatable relative to the stator frame. In the present invention, the stator frame has an integral structure made of plastic which simplifies the structure of the motor and reduces the cost of the motor. The present invention further provides a vacuum cleaner that employs the motor.
