r/VacuumCleaners

I've watched number of reviews on Sebo especially E3 model and some miele (motorised brush is a must). All of them seems to focus on build quality, longevity and availability of parts. Vacuuming is included in the review but without direct comparison to other manufacturers it's hard to tell how well they clean.

I understand it will last years and can be easily repaired but if it doesn't clean, well...

I've spent lots of time searching for one video that would show modern vacuum in similar price bracket used to vacuum carpet (hard floors are too easy) and then go over again with sebo/miele to show if there is any dust left after previous vacuum. That would convince me to get it.

Did anyone experience improved dust collection after switching to sebo from modern vacuum?

Are there any other manufacturers worth looking into that are available in uk and offer motorised brush head?

I’ve been browsing the web and this forum for weeks and I’m at a loss for what I really need. We have a Shark upright currently and it just isn’t great. Our budget is around 600$ which makes things more difficult. More info:

- our house is about 2100 sq ft, I’d say about 2/3 carpeted

- we have a short hair dog, he doesn’t shed a lot but enough that I like to vacuum often

- we have a lot of steps and tight spaces that we vacuum, which makes me hesitant to buy a canister vacuum

- I have been thinking a lot about cordless vacuums, I think there are pros and cons but they’d make our life so much more convenient

If anyone has any recommendations or ideas for where I can start, I’d be grateful. I’ve put together so many spreadsheets and I just can’t find one vacuum that seems to have everything I want in my budget.

Greetings vacuum enthusiasts,

I'm looking to replace my bagless upright Hoover WR71 with something similar, but bagged. As much as I like my current one it sure does kick out a lot of dust which builds up quickly in my small flat. I've always liked how light and nifty it is so hope to get something similarly so.

I found 2 that look ideal but then spotted they're not suitable for the UK because of the power/voltage, so it's back to the drawing board.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Has anyone ever bought a commercial backpack vacuum cleaner for their home?I want the power of a canister but the ease of getting around stuff of a stick vacuum. I’ve got a 3 floor, 3,000 square foot home with every type of floor surface you can think of. My current canister vacuum works the best but is a real pain to drag everywhere and take up and down stairs. My stick vacuum is quick and easy to use but does not suck well on all floor types and is dying anyway. Suggestions?

I recently bought a robot vaccum Xiaomi X20+ which is great but I need to buy a stick vaccum as well. I want to buy a Tineco and I tried the S5 extreme from a friend and the best thing was that it was pulling you and you had to push it just a little but it didn’t have FlashDry. So after some research I winded down to the Tineco S7 Stretch Ultra and Tineco S7 Artist and I don’t know wich one to get! The S7 Artist I think is a little better but when I asked ChatGPT it said that it doesn’t have that feature. Please enlighten me!!!

Hi,

I am planning to buy a robot vacuum cleaner for my 1BHK TNHB flat.

Since it’s quite an expensive purchase, I want to consider all factors before deciding.

Good after-sales service is very important to me, as parts may need to be replaced over time for this type of device.

Could you suggest which brands provide the best after-sales service in India?

THANK YOU in advance, I am so overwhelmed lol. I am looking for a vacuum that will be Good Enough, it doesn't need to filter the air to perfection I just want a convenient, easy to use, effective vacuum to replace our crappy existing one. Thus far I can't seem to find one vacuum that has everything I'm hoping for

Preferences:

• Apartment is partially hardwood and partially carpeted, needs to work on both without having to change an attachment or anything like that
• Needs to deal with long hair well & have enough suction to pick up corners
• Narrow enough to clean under couch, furniture etc
• Not super heavy, don't want to be lugging it around & fighting it on carpet
• Cordless or long cord better, hate having to plug/unplug
• Do not love canister vacuums, find them too cumbersome
• Self-standing unless it's super lightweight/portable
• Quiet ish would be great if possible
• Don't love "smart" devices or anything with a screen. It's a vacuum

Basically, I am hoping to find some magical vacuum that is the perfect mix of convenient and powerful. I was pretty set on the Sebo Felix but then I read it doesn't work well on carpet :(

Is there a vacuum out there that sounds like this that's under 1k?? If so please share your wisdom!! I'm also not opposed to buying 2 different vacuums but don't want to spend more than 1k total right now. Thanks so much again!

Hello! Have been reading through this forum but just cannot for the life of me figure out what's the best move. I have a dog who sheds a lot and whose hair is like daggers - extremely difficult to thoroughly vacuum out. Floors are hardwood with lots of (no/low pile) handwoven rugs. Hoping to keep it under $500, but ideally in the 300-400 range. I presume buying secondhand is not wise? Wish I could afford a Miele or Sebo, but alas.

I have analysis paralysis. Located in Australia, I’m after a bagged Miele Vacuum.

My budget is around $500. We are currently on a rental that is tiles on ground floor (I sweep and have a Roomba) and carpet upstairs / on the stairs.

I want something that works well in the car (crevice tool?). I have no pets but 3 very young kids (one is asthmatic and I have allergies). It needs to be powerful to get into the crevices of my minivan + work well on carpet and stairs.

I’m looking at:

- Miele S1 Guard ($350)

- Miele L1 Guard ($350) or the Cat + Dog

- M1 Guard - $500 on Miele website

- something else?

Keen to hear what is the best value as I’m struggling to figure out the differences

Its time to get rid of my dying Dyson.

Thinking of buying the Miele Guard L1 Electro sold by a 3rd party, fulfilled by Walmart. The price ($949) is really good in comparison to other sites. I've also looked at the C1 Cat and Dog, which is widely on sale for rough $650. I can't find any C3 models that are new for sale, otherwise I'd consider that one too. Anyone have any recommendations on which I should get? House is about 2500sqft, one sheddy dog, carpet upstairs, hardwood floors downstairs.

Hellooo, I am hoping to find some help here. I recently moved in with my partner and their vacuum just gave out. I was fine just buying the cheapest one and call it a day, but my partner advised me to do more research before picking one. I’m honestly just looking for one that’s good with cat hair and vinyl flooring. I mean serious cat hair too, 3 cats in a one bedroom apartment. Hoping there’s one out there that’s a bit more on the affordable side. Please if anyone knows about a brand to look in to, I am at War with the cat hair.

- Two small toy poodles, they do not shed much
- Hardwood floors and large high pile rugs

I want EVERY bit of dust removed possible as I have bad allergies.

I'm confused by the M1, L1, S1, C3, C1, and then sub models of each. I just want the best one for allergies for hardwood floor and carpet. Lets assume they are high pile rugs to be sure it all gets vacuumed well.

I heard there are new models and new models may not have the same 3 tier filter system.

Looking for a house vac since I just moved places. It's a two story apartment, shared areas are LVP and bedrooms/stairs are low pile carpet so I'd say about 50/50 split. Don't really want to spend more than $150 since I'm living with roommates and don't want to baby a shared appliance that only I'm on the hook for paying.

Can anyone recommend a good central vacuum system with low noise during orientation, good air volume and proper inch of water column vacuum.

I should be able to purchase it in Canada.

( I tried to purchase Purvac Barracuda, but can’t find a vendor in Canada)

Thanks
