Vac Vacuum

There are health benefits of using a quality vacuum cleaner. Allergies anyone? Now let us find one.

A simple Google search on the term "what is the best Vacuum cleaner" resulted in millions of pages and me feeling lost. To make matters worst, even more sites are displayed in the search engine results if I misspelled the word and search on "what is the best vacum cleaner" or "what is the best vaccum cleaner" , note the misspelling of the word vacuum in both cases, as is commonly done with a word like vacuum. With all these search result options, how do you sift and find the answer you are looking for.

What this article will attempt to do is to make your search much easier. We have taken the time to read the most active review sites on the best vacuum cleaners, and this article will summaries and help you make a decision as to the best vacuum cleaner for your specific needs.

The information as presented here comes from reviews done by The Good Housekeeping and Consumer Reports. Consumer Reports test vacuum cleaners as an integral part of its ongoing testing program. Several models are tested as they are released by manufactures and added to the total test results. We all know that Consumer Reports' methodology is thorough and decisively consistent.

There are different vacuums for different needs. Vacuum cleaners fall in the categories of Upright vacuum cleaners, Canister vacuums, Stick Vacuum, Shop Vacuum Cleaners and Steam Vacuum Cleaners. Each category is for a different use and different situation. Therefore, in order for you to determine what is the best vacuum cleaner for your situation, you first need to determine which category applies to you.

We will provide you with a summary of where each category applies to, and then we will tell you directly, which vacuum cleaner is the best for the respective category indicated above.

Upright vacuum cleaners: Upright vacuum cleaners are best used where there is allot of carpet, although the reviews also gave the indication that they are also used on bare floors. If however, your situation is mostly bare floors with a few spots of carpet, and then a Canister vacuum cleaner would be your most applicable choice of vacuum cleaners. Upright vacuum cleaners usually carry a disposable bag, as oppose to the Canister in the Canister vacuum cleaners. However, the reviews indicated that lately upright vacuum have transitioned in to bag less units. Uprights generally have a very rough time on the bare floors because of the revolving brush. If however, you still plan on getting an upright that can be used on bare floors, you will need to ensure that the revolving brush can be turned off. Although I doubt you will find one without this feature. Lastly, upright vacuums with a low profile is better for cleaning under beds and around furniture, it is even better to simply get a stick vacuum, which we will discuss later. Upright Vacuum Cleaners comes in several marketing and feature based categories, they are self-propelled upright vacuum cleaner, budget bag less vacuum cleaner, luxury bag less vacuum and robotic vacuum cleaner. However, according to the reviews we have read, the overall best Upright vacuum cleaner is the Eureka Boss Smart Vac 4870GZ.

Canisters vacuum cleaners: While most reviews recommend Uprights for home in which the floors are carpeted, canisters can be easier to carry and to use on stairs and upholstery because of its two part nature. The reviews indicated that canisters are better for those who plan to vacuum bare floors , rugs, stairs , seating upholstery, curtains, drapes and other areas that a located above the floors. The best Canister vacuum according to the reviews is the Bosch Formula Electro Duo Hepa BSG71360UC

Stick Vacuum Cleaners: Stick vacuums are ideal for bare floors and smaller areas. They are popular with apartment tenant and also persons who cannot maneuver upright or canister vacuums. They are excellent for quick vacuum jobs, however they are not deep cleaning vacuums. There is no special model that are the best, any popular brand would do just fine. Brands indicated by the reviews are Eureka, Kenmore , Hoover and Dyson.

Next article we will explore the best of Shop Vacuum and Steam Vacuum Cleaners. I hope you find this article helpful in selecting the best vacuum cleaner for the job.

Since I bought new carpeting, it shows paths were there is the most traffic. My vacuum doesn't seem to pull the pile up. Do you think this is the carpet (it was of high quality) or the vacuum. My stick vac seems to do the job better than my full size upright. What is your opinion?

Hi,I think it is the vacuum. A friend recently bought a Eureka boss smart vac ultra 4870 and she loves it. She said it was recommended by a leading consumer magazine and rated right up there with higher priced vacuums. It was priced around 150.00 and really cleans carpets and bare floors. Has hepa filtration, 8 carpet settings, convenient tools and ability to control suction when using tools.Another friend has a Dyson that she loves but they are more expensive. Hope this helps.
