A good vacuum cleaner can turn dull and tiring cleaning job into a bearable even relaxing one. More and more people choose vacuum cleaning to replace traditional physical mopping, because it can guarantee eliminating the dust and bacteria better. Vacuum cleaners come in a wide range, including handheld vacuums, canister vacuums, uprights and robotic vacuum cleaners. And now it has stepped into a cordless vacuum trend. Certainly all of them aren’t equal in cleaning functions. Which type to choose mainly depends on your expectation and cleaning area. Before buying a vacuum cleaner, especially when you buy it for the first time, it's very necessary to read this vacuum cleaner buyer's guide carefully.

 

What’s the Best Type of Vacuum Cleaner?

There’s no fixed answer of this question. The only criterion to judge a vacuum cleaner is checking its cleaning effect. If your house is covered with wall-to-wall carpet, or rugs, upright vacuum would be better, especially those with bags. Too many stairs or hardwood, laminate, tile floors can be suitable for canister vacuum. Handheld vacuum is perfect for lighter cleaning tasks. While the robot vacuums are welcomed by the set-it-and-go crowd. For the best vacuum cleaner, visit our CrazySales Vacuum Cleaner section.

 

Upright Vacuum Cleaners --- Bag or Bagless?

Upright vacuum cleaners usually cost less than canister ones and robotic vacuums. The biggest advantage of them is that they’re better at deep-cleaning than other vacuums, especially cleaning carpets. If you plan to have a thorough clean-up at home, upright vacuum cleaners will be your excellent helper who can reach your expectation easily. However, pulling them to clean is an energy-consuming job, so they’re not the best choice for those who have a bad back or arthritis.

 

There’re two types of vacuums with bag and without bag. All of our upright vacuums on sale are bagless ones. As for bagless vacuum machines, the main benefit is no loss of suction or just a small reduction as it fills up. Besides, compared to bagless vacuums, bagged vacuum cleaners need bag replacing vacuum bags every other time. For bagless types, you have no worries about that, and just clean the filter twice a month if you use it regularly.

 

At CrazySales, Akitas Pro Upright Bagless Cyclone Vacuum, and Upright Cyclonic Vacuum Cleaner Bagless HEPA Filter are both bagless vacuum cleaners with good performance. With 3L large capacity dust storage bin, washable filters, outstanding suction power and low noise, they’re absolutely best upright vacuums for your cleaning.

Canister Vacuum Cleaners

Canister vacuums are those having a motor or bad as a separate unit, which are usually equipped with wheels in the bottom. The design of canister vacuum makes it bulkier than upright and robot units. But now many manufacturers start to improve its lightweight feature, so it won’t be very tiring while cleaning. Due to the hose, canister vacuums can be better at cleaning edges and area under furniture than others.

 

Multi-Cyclonic Bagless Vacuum Cleaner w/ HEPA Filter at CrazySales is a highly-performed canister vacuum cleaner. The main part is the high-powered motor for thorough cleaning. As for the suction power, besides the support of the motor, there is a 32mm pipe diameter to suck the particles and debris. We tested its sucking with coins, seeds, beans and little biscuits, all of which can be cleaned smoothly. Last but not least, the 8 layers of heavy filtering is another key selling point of the best canister vacuum.

Handheld Vacuum Cleaners

Handheld vacuums are the lightest and smallest models available, and they come in cord and cordless types. Usually we recommend cordless handheld vacuums for its convenience and smooth operation. They’re a perfect choice for light and quick surface cleaning, like short-pile carpets, sofa, mattresses and vehicle cleaning. And there’s even a tiny handheld vacuum for cleaning keyboards and computers, Mini USB Laptop Tablet Computer PC Keyboard Desk Dust Vacuum Cleaner Brush Random, very convenient and thorough to suck the dust in gaps.

All of handheld vacuum cleaners at CrazySales are portable and lightweight, so you can take them anywhere when you need them. Most of them have wet and dry modes for you to choose according to the material waiting to be cleaned.

Robot Vacuum Cleaners

Robot vacuum cleaners are best helpers on cleaning when you relax or feel tired. They’re equipped with various cleaning programs inside. All you need to do is setting the program you want and let it go in an uncluttered room. But now with the improving technology, many robot vacuums have their anti-collision and anti-fall functions with a sensor inside, such as our 7-in-1 Robot Vacuum Cleaner and DEEBOT Slim Robotic Vacuum Cleaner--Recharge Floor Sweeper. They're the most popular units in our robot vacuums with hundreds of customer reviews in total. But you can’t expect a thorough cleaning from a robot vacuum, especially when you have shag carpeting or rugs.
