Vacuum cleaner for sore hips

I developed hip/pelvic pain when I was pregnant - a long time ago, but which never entirely went away and is getting worse now I'm hitting perimenopause. Hoovering really sets it off. I got rid of our heavy upright Dyson and replaced it with a pull-along Dyson ages ago but it's not much better. It's now old and inefficient enough that I think I can justify replacing it, so I'm looking for another bag-free vacuum that can handle hard floors, carpets and cat hair but is less hard work to use. I would prefer corded to cordless though. Any recommendations?

This thread is a bit old now, so if you have landed here looking for recommendations, we recently updated our best vacuum cleaner buyer's guide, featuring the best cordless, cylinder and upright vacuums, tried and tested by Mumsnet.

We hope you find this useful.

I have sacroilitis (hip pain) and use a henry mostly. It's awkward on corners but if you can take your time to hoover it's light enough to drag along and mine is great for cat hair.

We also have a cordless dyson cyclone v10 animal which lives upstairs. Ideal for carpets, rugs, sofa etc and not heavy or hurty on the hips
