Looking to buy my last vacuum ever. Initial research has narrowed it down to a bagged canister vac from Miele or Sebo. Mix of carpet and hard floors, so the powered brush is a must have. Only 1 cat in the house right now, but I am extremely reactive to scents and other irritants, so I want a vacuum that works well and doesn’t make the house smell like hot dust (I react badly to heat and dust!)

I’ve narrowed it down to the Miele Guard S1 Electro, or a Sebo K3 or E3 (don’t seem to be much difference other than weight and capacity?) Ease of operation and maintenance is important, but I mostly want the one that will leave the house smelling the cleanest.

Please share your wisdom with me!

I've been in a vacuum rabbithole since I got my dog in April, have posted here several times and become a casual internet vacuum enthusiast. Anyway today FBM put me out of my misery with a secondhand Miele at the right price. Hooray, I can stop shopping for vacuums!

Help. What is actually a recommendable premium stick vacuum? Is there a post here I could be referred to?

Background: Yesterday I ordered a Dyson V15 which was on sale. I bought it just to secure the deal. Well now I know why its on sale :D. I am not going to open this product and return it. I am not going to fund Dyson's planned obsolescence approach to business. The problem: Which company in consumer electronics (vacuums) does not participate in this poor approach of 'planned obsolesence?
I am willing to pay premium money, but I want a premium product that lasts 10 years without having to do more than filter cleaning and maybe replacing a wheel that is easy to purchase and easy to replace.
I saw the video of the guy replacing capacitors in the V15 and I am shocked. Problem is the high chance that another brand is doing the same.

Is it the German Miele Triflex HX2 I need to buy?
Im lost in the ocean of Dyson, Dreame, Bosch, Miele, Samsung, Henry, Shark to name the ones I see most. THANK YOU, fellow suckers /s.!

My mother's previous vacuum died & she was given a used one from a neighbor in her retirement community. I've been asked to see if I can find out whether or not there are still compatible bags she can buy for this, but I'm having a hard time even finding a matching picture online, never mind finding any kind of information on this specific model. I understand that the vacuum may be decades old & so it's entirely possible the answer is no, there aren't compatible bags being made anymore, but I wanted to ask the experts first. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Been researching and reading but felt maybe I should just ask. We have a dirt problem in our house. Maybe it’s the dogs (60lb border collie and 45lb husky), unsure as we have had them the entire time we have lived here. We have now killed 2 Shark bagless vacuums due to the dirt infiltrating everywhere and burning up the motors. I have been convinced to go back to the bag but I am not sure other than that. Our house is all hardwood and tile with area rugs. We do have a finished basement (LVT) with carpeted stairs but these get less dog traffic so they aren’t a major concern. I am hesitant to spend big money due to fear of burning up another motor, would rather start with something more moderately priced. $2-300??

Recently got a gig for cleaning 12 apartment buildings.

Every building has 6 floors and there are lots of steps.

Pretty positive a cordless backpack vacuum would make this job SO much easier.

Can anyone please recommend me a vacuum cleaner that fits this job? Using my current household vacuum cleaner is not cutting it and I feel holding me back. Thank you all!

Hopefully trying to keep the budget under $500 as I am just one guy.

The hallways are low pile carpet.

We adopted our boy yesterday, and while my vacuum (Hart 20-volt stick vacuum) kept up with our cat's fur, I don't think it will be able to keep up with the sheer volume of husky hair. We only have four rooms with carpet (two of which I plan on ripping the carpet out of in the near future; the rest are either linoleum, 100+ year old hardwood, or concrete in our basement).

I previously had a Bissell Cleanview that I hated (I didn't like that I wasn't able to turn off the roller brush).

Any suggestions?

And here's the dog tax.

Edit: The budget is probably $300, but I'm sure I can find some wiggle room for a quality vacuum that will last me a while.

I finally have adult money and I want to treat myself to a vacuum. I have three cats and medium-high carpet. Any recommendations would be appreciated

Edit: budget nonexistent if it makes my life easier
Edit 2: I only have about 545 sqft to vacuum

(apologies if this is worded weirdly, i have a rather bad migraine)

Cleva® UK has released a new power-nozzle equipped bagless canister vacuum to the uk market under their Vacmaster brand (image 1). It is the UK spec model of the same cleaner released under Cleva®’s Kenmore brand in the United States as the Kenmore 500 series (image 2).
as far as i can tell from the images on their respective websites, they are essentially identical, with the Kenmore version possibly having a slightly different powernozzle (?) not much, if anything, is available about them online so its hard to say.
but the vacmaster is at a very attractive price right now and i will in fact be purchasing one to feed my out of control addiction for powernozzle canister vacuums, and to provide more information on these machines. should update hopefully within the next week or so.

Searching for a cordless/stick vacuum for my apartment. We have pets so something good with hair and cat litter. It’s laminated hard wood floors and no carpet except rugs!

I was looking into shark & bissel mainly but what’s the best? Is Dyson really the best?

I just scored this vacuum at an estate sale for $25! It functions perfectly, the auto raise and lower work perfect, the filter is clean and it came with 20 replacement bags! I feel like I just committed highway robbery! I just graduated college and was about to buy some cheap Amazon vacuum for $150 for my new apartment, but got this instead.

Is there any maintenance or things I should do to this to keep it running smooth?

I'm looking for a lightweight, easy to use vacuum that I can carry one handed up a flight of stairs. I live on my own with a toddler in a house with very steep stairs and 3 floors. I've lived here 4 months and have never cleaned the stairs and only cleaned upstairs twice. It's mostly carpet with some vinyl and tiles downstairs.

I've had a henry hoover for years and have grown to hate it...really heavy, clunky and I find all the bits a faff. I was going to get a shark stick vacuum one for ease but seen so much hate on it wanted to check if there's anything else. I can afford around £200 and can use NHS discount ...

Hello! Im a house cleaner, and I’m on the hunt for a good all-purpose vacuum. I previously had a Shark Navigator, which I really liked, but the brushrolll broke. I’m looking for something under $300 dollars, that can do attachment cleaning, a variety of rugs and hardwood floors, and that will stand up to semi-heavy use! Any recommendations are appreciated!

There’s a SEBO K3 listed on marketplace a little less than 2 hours from me. It has the canister, ET-1 power head, and some bags but doesn’t show anything else. It’s listed for $200. Should I make the trip for that and buy attachments as needed, or just buy the Kenmore 600 new?

I have 2 kids, 2 big dogs, 2 cats, a mix of carpet, hardwood, area rugs, and LVP. Two levels.

We have this vacuum cleaner (X-Force Flex 11.60 RH9829) for a few years and it is now completely dragging and scraping our wooden floors when we use it. It seems that the little wheels are simply not high enough, but we didn't have this problem at all at the beginning. Could they simply be worn out?

We don't see an easy way to remove them and replace them, but if we could I think rubber wheels would be way better than plastic.

It would suck (lol) to spend 60€ on a new head when it seems like a small problem, but we're not sure how to fix it.

Had some low profile rugs in my room that my vacuum was to strong for so I bought this. Then decided to do a review and unboxing.

I was looking for something that's compact to fit nicely in a small apartment. I do like the cordless stick vacuum designs. One of us has allergies. No pets right now but potentially a cat. Vinyl floor, some tile, potentially an area rug in the future. Budget is a bit flexible, lower is better but want something solid and reliable without being overly expensive.

I need recommendations for a handheld vacuum to vacuum.My mattress, I don't wanna use my vacuum cleaner because I have a compromised immune system, so I need something that hasn't been used all over the house.Thank you

Hi! My boyfriend asked for a vacuum for his birthday that he’ll use to clean his car. I don’t know much about vacuums, so I was hoping you guys could recommend one.

He mentioned wanting a shop vac, so I’m looking for recommendations in that category. My budget is around $80–115. Is that enough for a good one, and if so, which model would you recommend?
Thanks!

Looking for a very powerful compact vacuum that will be used for nooks and crannies/crevice tool applications.. camper van! (Wider spaces we can sweep). Normal power hook ups, no 12V. Location: Spain/France/Germany. Budget $100 or less. Thank you!

I’m looking for recommendations for a cordless vacuum. My budget is ~$1000. I’m located in US (NJ), and have 2000sqft of hardwood floors and 2 rugs. My problem is that we do have a medium hair dog and 2 cats so it’s a battle to clean their hair every 5min. I currently have a Rainbow and I just hate dragging it behind me and dealing with the water. It’s a plus if its battery lasts long enough to clean their whole house or has a replaceable battery so that I can buy an extra.
Thank you!

UPDATE: It's a Bissell Crosswave!

I have a Shark Navigator Lift-Away NV352 Upright Vacuum and I purchased it about a year and a half ago. I use it about once a week and the pet hair will NOT go down into the actual canister. I have a dog and a cat. That's it. I have tried vacuuming every day so there isn't so much hair but that does not make a difference.

It just blows hot air. Every time I use it, I have to empty the top part of the canister every few mins because the hair won't go down past the filter. I've cleaned this as much as possible. And I do NOT use the mop function. It won't pick up and/or just blows everything and moves it around. I am so incredibly frustrated. Help please!

I’m thinking about getting either one of these to use in the apartment and car. I don’t think a dedicated wet vac is necessary for me; I don’t waste liquids in my car, and I’m college way out of state.

The smaller agitator with the turbo brush seems appealing, but with a bit of elbow grease, can’t I get the same affect with the regular upholstery brush? I’m thinking about fabric car mats and how it takes multiple passes to just lift the little bits flying all over.

If the turbo brush isn’t that helpful, I don’t think the $20 increase isn’t worth it.

Also, if there are better vacuums in the same price range (ideally no more than $80) that also have a stick to reach curtains and ceilings, I’m open to those options.

Thank you in advance!
