Vax HomePro Detect Pet-Design CLSV-HPTC

Average price in the past six months: £301
Cheapest price in the past six months: £190*

Vax HomePro Detect Pet-Design CLSV-HPTC
  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.8 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.7kg

We like: Straightforward to use

We don't like: Filter could be easier to clean

The new generation of the Vax HomePro range adds a ‘Debris Detect’ feature, which the manufacturer claims uses sensors to adjust the suction power depending on the type of debris being cleaned. 

The floor head has built-in LED lights to illuminate the dirt where you’re cleaning. Plus, the Pet-Design CLSV-HPTC comes with a motorised pet tool – a step up from the standard pet tool you get with the Pet model.

Numatic Henry Quick HEN.100

Average price in the past six months: £272
Cheapest price in the past six months: £198*

A cordless vacuum cleaner

This model is also available direct from Henry for £199.99. Or compare prices at other retailers:

  • Bagged cordless handstick vacuum cleaner
  • 1 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.3kg

We like: Cleans well with a full dust container

We don't like: Poor performance on minimum power

This was the first cordless handstick offering from Numatic. The floor nozzle is an electro brush, but this model also comes with a combi tool that doubles up as an upholstery nozzle and a furniture brush.

This is a bagged vacuum, which means the dust pods will have to be regularly replaced. They can hold up to a litre of dust and debris and are made from recycled materials, according to Numatic. Pods are often less messy than a dust container when it comes to emptying, so this might be a good option if you suffer from dust related allergies.

Is Henry right for your home? Read our Numatic Henry Quick HEN.100 review to find out.

Numatic Henry Quick HEN.100

Average price in the past six months: £329
Cheapest price in the past six months: £237*

Henry Quick Pro

This model is also available direct from Henry for £249.99. Or compare prices at other retailers:

  • Bagged cordless handstick vacuum cleaner
  • 1 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.5kg

We like: Easy to use

We don't like: Struggles a little with laminate

The Henry Quick Pro is Numatic's top-of-the-range cordless handstick vac, with all the accessories you could seemingly need to clean your home.

That includes the likes of a soft dusting brush, flexi hose (enabling the hose to bend to reach more easily under low sofas) and a crevice tool. It doesn’t have a bagless container and instead captures dirt in fleece bag pods. These can contain up to a litre of dirt before they need changing and can be a good option if you suffer from dust-related allergies as pods are generally less messy to empty than a dust container.

Should you go Pro? Read our Numatic Henry Quick Pro review to see if the upgrade is worthwhile.

Shark Stratos IZ400UK

Average price in the past six months: £315
Cheapest price in the past six months: £209*

Shark Stratos IZ400UKT vacuum cleaner
  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.9 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 4.1kg

We like: Its filters retain allergens well

We don't like: Fairly noisy

Shark says that the enhanced brush-roll design on the Stratos IZ400UKT delivers its best ever hair pick-up, which will be a relief if you spend half your life cutting pet hair and your family's tresses off your brush head roller.

It has an LED lamp in the floorhead to help illuminate dust and pet hair, and the 'Clean Sense IQ' feature is designed to automatically senses invisible dirt and adjust the cleaning power. 

In the box you’ll find a crevice tool, multi-surface tool, pet tool, accessory bag, lithium-Ion battery and a charger. 

Check out the full Shark Stratos IZ400UKT review to see if this cordless vac excels or sucks in all the wrong ways.

Bosch Unlimited 9 Dual Battery BCS932BGB

Average price in the past six months: £450
Cheapest price in the past six months: £350*

Bosch Unlimited 9 Dual Battery cordless vac

It's currently on offer for £349.99 from John Lewis, and direct from Bosch:

  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.5 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.3kg

We like: Cleans laminate well

We don't like: Poor cleaning on low power mode

The Bosch Unlimited 9 comes with an electro brush floor head with LED lights, a gap tool with an extension and a furniture brush. There’s also a built-in MicroSensor with an indicator light that, according to the manufacturer, changes colour when all the dust has been picked up. It also has a HEPA filtration system.

The dust container isn’t as generous as some, with a capacity of just 0.5 litres, but at least you won’t have to worry about buying disposable bags.

Samsung Bespoke Jet Plus Pet VS20B95823W

Average price in the past six months: £595
Cheapest price in the past six months: £369*

Samsung Bespoke Jet Plus Pet VS20B95823W vacuum cleaner
  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.6 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 2.8kg

We like: Versatile

We don't like: Fairly noisy

Yes, this cordless Samsung vac has been cheaper in the past, but never for very long and this is still a rare discount for a much better price than usual.

It's a top-of-the-range model with a digital display, extendable wand and a large variety of accessories. It comes with an all-in-one clean station and an accessory cradle with battery charger, which is able to store all the tools that come with the vacuum. It weighs 2.8kg which is about average for a cordless model and has a 0.6-litre dustbin. 

Is this the Samsung vac for you? Read our Samsung Bespoke Jet Plus Pet VS20B95823W review to help you buy with confidence.

Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra VS90F40DEK/EU

Average price in the past six months: £1,053
Cheapest price in the past six months: £699*

Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra VS90F40DEK
  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.6 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.2kg

We like: Good battery life

We don't like: Very expensive at full price 

Billed as the ‘world’s most powerful cordless stick vacuum cleaner’, this model has suction of up to 400W (the standard Bespoke Jet AI only goes up to 280W). You also get wi-fi connectivity, ‘AI cleaning’, dual batteries, a host of accessories – plus it empties itself.

There are also dual floor heads: one for general use and a soft roller designed for hard floors. There’s an angle tool and a combi upholstery nozzle/furniture brush, plus a telescopic pipe to reach high spaces. 

An LCD screen on the vacuum handle shows the run time, battery life and any maintenance issues, such as blockages.

How does this Samsung vac shape up? We reveal all in our Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra VS90F40DEK review.

Corded vacuum cleaner deals

Shark NZ780UKT

Average price in the past six months: £234.66
Cheapest price in the past six months: £170*

  • Bagless and upright, corded vacuum cleaner
  • 3.8 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 6.6kg

We like: A fab choice for pet owners

We don't like: It's a bit messy to empty

You can't beat a corded vacuum cleaner for sustained cleaning power, without the faff of charging the battery and emptying the dust collector all the time. This upright model combines a decent-sized dust canister with an anti-hair wrap roller to have you cleaning up after your pets speedily. 

The floor head has two modes – carpet and hard floors – and it comes with a mini turbo brush for pet hair, an upholstery nozzle and a crevice tool. It also has a removable unit that can be used on stairs and other situations that are too awkward for upright mode.

Miele Guard L1 Cat & Dog

Average price in the past six months: £343
Cheapest price in the past six months: £249*

Miele Guard L1 Cat & Dog
  • Bagged and corded cylinder vacuum cleaner
  • 2.9 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 6.7kg

We like: Quieter than most

We don't like: Could be easier to use on stairs

This stylish black cylinder vacuum cleaner from Miele comes with a turbo brush floorhead that’s designed to pick up pet hair without having to keep going over the same patch of carpet time and time again thanks to its turbo brush floorhead.

It comes with a universal floorhead for use on carpet and hard floors, a long crevice tool and a 2-in-1 combi upholstery nozzle and dusting brush. It uses Miele’s HyClean Pure disposable bags to collect the dust. Each bag can hold up to 2.9 litres of dust, so you won’t need to replace them too often, but you’ll need to buy these separately – expect to pay around £14 for a pack of four.

Robot vacuum cleaner deals

Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum & Mop RV2620WAUK

Average price in the past six months: £422.10
Cheapest price in the past six months: £330*

shark matrix plus robot vacuum
  • Robot vacuum cleaner
  • 0.23 litre dust capacity

We like: Easy to use

We don't like: Bulky

If you're in the market for a robot vacuum cleaner, Shark's Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum & Mop RV2620WAUK is currently on offer.

It comes with charging and self-empty station, two side brushes and a couple of washable mopping pads. It doesn't take up much space – the unit itself is 9 x 34cm, though the 230ml dust tank will need emptying fairly regularly. 

Plus, you can set up virtual barriers in the easy-to-use SharkClean app to help it navigate furniture and other obstacles.

Dyson 360 Vis Nav Robot Vacuum

Average price in the past six months: £970.90
Cheapest price in the past six months: £599.99*

dyson 360 vis nav robot vacuum
  • Robot vacuum cleaner
  • 0.5 litre dust capacity

We like: Very easy to use

We don't like: Not the quietest

The Dyson 360 Vis Nav Robot Vacuum doesn't come cheap, so it's great to see this one on offer. 

It comes with a charging station, and is controlled with MyDyson app (note that you can't set it up without a wi-fi connection). 

The dust container has a sliding button that makes it easy to empty. However, because the bottom of the dust container opens when you slide the button, the dirt drops out very rapidly and causes a cloud of fine dust. We'd recommend dropping any dirt, particularly fine dirt, into a deep bin to stop the dust cloud getting everywhere.

Eufy Clean X8 Pro with Self-Empty Station
  • Robot vacuum cleaner
  • 2.5 litre dust capacity

We like: Very easy to use and clean

We don't like: Struggles to climb high ledges

Eufy specialises in home security systems and robot vacuum cleaners, with the X8 Pro one of its more affordable vacs. In addition to the vacuum cleaning, it also has a mop function.

It's able to dock into its self-empty station without the user having to intervene, and it cleans the roller brushes every time it does so. You can adjust the frequency of emptying into the charging station via the app if you don't want this after every clean.

How to spot a good deal on a vacuum cleaner

Andrew Laughlin, Which? vacuum cleaner expert, says:

Andrew Laughlin

With some vacuums almost perennially on 'special offer', it can be hard to know which deals are genuine money savers. 

Stick to these golden rules to help get the best value with your next purchase.

  • Don't fall for features and accessories Some models come with impressive-sounding features. Think Flexology (a flexible cleaning tube), or Lift-Away (a removable handheld unit), or Vax's QuickClean (also a removable unit). While useful, you'll most likely find similar features across many other brands, just with more conventional names. Models in the same range (eg the Samsung Jet range) usually have the same core machine – the only difference is the accessories and supplied floor heads. An entry-level model typically costs about £100 less than a premium model with all the accessories.
  • Check the price of similar models Many vacs have a basic package and a more expensive pet variant, which comes with a mini-tool for cleaning up after your furry friends. In some circumstances, you'd be better off buying the basic model and the pet tool separately. However, always check the prices of variants, as you might find the pet version on offer for less than the basic model.
  • Check out the latest price data If a deal seems too good to be true, you can use price comparison sites such as PriceRunner and PriceSpy to check historical price data. The data should reveal how regularly a vacuum goes on sale (if it's on 'special offer' for most of the year, the offer isn't all that special) and whether the 'before' price is accurate. It's worth doing a quick Google search too, as not all retailers' price feeds are picked up by these sites.

Dyson vacuum deals

Based on historical pricing data, we think these prices represent genuinely good savings on some of Dyson's most popular cordless models:

  • Dyson Gen5detect Cordless  anything less than £699
  • Dyson V15 Detect Absolute – anything less than £550 (£499 for the Animal model)
  • Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute – anything less than £449
  • Dyson Outsize Absolute – anything less than £699
  • Dyson V11 Absolute – anything less than £599 (£499 for the Animal model)
  • Dyson Cyclone V10Absolute – anything less than £399 (£349 for the Animal model)
  • Dyson V8 Animal – anything less than £329
  • Dyson V7 Animal – anything less than £249

We've noticed that prices can rise in the months before big sales events such as Black Friday, Christmas sales or Cyber Monday, creating the illusion of huge savings on the day. 

Always check PriceRunner or PriceSpy to compare historical prices to find out of the model you're after is actually being sold at a low price.

Shark vacuum deals

Based on historical data, we think these prices represent genuinely good savings on some of Shark's most popular models:

  • Shark HZ3000UKT – anything under £249
  • Shark IZ300UK – anything under £299
  • Shark ICZ160UK – anything under £299
  • Shark IZ201UK – anything under £249
  • Shark NV702UK – anything under £189
  • Shark NV602UK – anything under £169
  • Shark HZ500UK – anything under £179

Also keep in mind that cordless Sharks are sold with one, two or sometimes even three batteries.

If you opt for a package with extra batteries, bear in mind that you can buy spare batteries from the Shark website for around £70, so the deal only makes sense if the package is a similar price to the single-battery model.

If you live in a smaller property, you probably don't need extra batteries, as a single charge will last long enough to vacuum your home in one go. Any battery faults should be covered by the manufacturer's guarantee for the first two years.

Samsung vacuum deals

If you're looking to replace your old Samsung with a new model, don't forget to check the Samsung website for trade-in deals for your old appliance. They'll take your old vacuum, price it and then you'll be able to put the money towards a new model.

How to recycle your old vacuum cleaner

Some retailers will offer to recycle your old vacuum cleaner, although they can sometimes charge a fee for doing so. 

Our guide on how to recycle electrical items will help you assess your options.
