Cordless vacuum cleaner

Sorry if this has been done to death, but looking for recommendations for a cordless vacuum cleaner. I have a corded Dyson and it's a bit clunky and a pain to get in and out of its cupboard and put together. It really puts me off getting it out for a quick run around as there's more faffing than cleaning going on.

I have a hand held shark but it's only good for a very small area or little spillage and I have to stoop. I thought maybe an upright cordless that was a bit more powerful than the hand held would come in handy? Or maybe even I need a robot? Any recommendations gratefully received!

Dyson Cyclone V10 Absolute (comes with the "fluffy" head for hard floors, the brush head for carpets, plus a number of other attachments). Is currently shipping with two filters included, so no need to buy a spare filter for use while the washable filter is drying. Bought mine just after Christmas (before a extra filter was being included) and so far I am very pleased with its manoeuvrability, performance and run time - haven't used my now 16 year old DC07 upright since.

Looks good. Was hoping to get more change from a grand though Blush

We have wood floors and a eufy robocall. I love it for a quick go around each day. Even with 2 kids and 2 cats, it keeps ontop of the fluff.

But I still need a handheld for the stairs etc.

We also have wood upstairs, so eufy cleans upstairs too, great for dust bunny's under the bed...

Robovac, not robocall lol

Was about £200....

I have a shark which I love. Cordless, folds in half to put away, light as a feather. Can't remember the exact model but it's teal and silvery colour. Was about £250 off the shark website

Snap, @thismeansnothing, I've just done the same deal. I love my Shark, it's so handy to whizz round and not as heavy and cumbersome as our old Dyson drag along plug in. I honestly couldn't be arsed with it most of the time and I loathed doing stairs with it. No, it's probably not as powerful as a corded vac but I absolutely use it much more often so I think it's worth the pay off. I couldn't justify the cost of the Dyson equivalent, I'm not that bothered about a hoover.

Yes ! I do the stairs all the time now because, well. I can!
I would suggest getting a second battery though. PITA being mid room and it does on you
