Vacuum cleaner

[kezziethecat]

Can someone please tell me which one to buy? Ours has just broken and in overwhelmed by the choice. We have a 3 bed semi, two children and one cat. Carpets upstairs and hard floor downstairs. Really want something powerful but probably cordless. Advice please

Shark lift away with anti hair wrap. My cleaner loves it, I love it, my engineering fanatic DH loves it, it sucks stronger than a Dyson. Every little design detail is perfectly thought out except for the one tool falling off its holder when you go too fast which is not a problem at all compared to all the good points!

I have the Shark cordless mentioned above. It really is very good indeed. I’m hoping they will be reduced in the black Friday sales so I can buy another one for our holiday home (not to be taken down there until lockdown rules allow it of course). However I don’t know if I would want it to be our only vacuum. I still like to keep a corded one for deep cleaning and for that I like Miele.

Shark Lift Away. All day, every day

Shark! I don't have the hair wrap one but apparently it's even better.
