The Top Vacuum Cleaners
We rated 50 models on power and portability. These three cleaned house.
BEST CORDLESS
Shark Vertex DuoClean FowerFins Lightweight Cordless Stick Vacuum
$380, amazon.com
Not only does this stick model — which runs 50 minutes between charges — eliminate the usual tangled mess, it self-propels. Says one tester: “It basically vacuums for you.”
BEST CANISTER
Miele Compact C1 Turbo Team Bagged Canister Vacuum
$537, amazon.com
Canister vacs are usually most effective on hardwood and low-pile rugs, so it’s no surprise this one excelled on those surfaces. And despite its power, it doesn’t sound like a jet engine. “So quiet it’s ridiculous,” says a tester.
BEST OVERALL
Shark Navigator Swivel Pro Complete Upright Vacuum
$160, walmart.com
From hardwood to high-pile carpeting, this vac was our testers’ clear favorite across any surface. Another plus: A HEPA filter captures dust and allergens to improve overall air quality.
HOW DAME HELEN DEEP-CLEANS
Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal
$450, dyson.com
Dyson’s lightweight cordless stick vacs have countless loyal fans — including actress and dog lover Helen Mirren, who favors the Animal (known for its pet-hair prowess). In a 2020 Instagram post she called it one of her “favourite things in quarantine.”
