key information

What makes Which? deals different?

Retailers sometimes use misleading ‘was’ and ‘before’ prices to claim their deals are good. Media sites and artificial intelligence (AI) promote these deals – but do they always check them first? We don’t just take retailers’ word for it, we track actual market prices over six months. We share cheapest and average calculations and evaluate products against strict performance benchmarks. So you get good quality at honest prices.

*References to ‘Average price' and 'Cheapest price' are based on Which? market knowledge and information supplied by our partners. Prices are checked for the six calendar months prior to publication. Not all retailers are included in our checks.

Best June vacuum cleaner deals

The vacuum cleaners we've chosen are models that scored well in our tests, although not all are Best Buys. You'll need to read the full review to find out if they're top performers. 

Our pick: Bosch Unlimited 7 BCS712GB

Average price in the past six months: £317
Cheapest price in the past six months: £247*

Bosch Unlimited 7 BCS712GB cordless vacuum
  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.5 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3kg

We like: It's easy to use

We don't like: Noisy

This cordless vacuum cleaner from Bosch is designed to automatically detect the floor type it’s being used on and adjusts the suction accordingly, such as when going over a rug or moving from tiles to carpet. 

The ‘flex tube’ allows you to reach under low furniture, the main floor head has LED lights to spotlight the dirt ahead, and it comes with a crevice tool and an upholstery brush. There's also an additional battery pack and a quick charger tool.

It weighs 3kg, which is about average for a cordless vacuum, and the dust container holds around 0.5 litres, so it will need to be emptied fairly regularly. 

See how it performed in our rigorous tests in the full Bosch Unlimited 7 BCS712GB review.

Cordless vacuum cleaner deals

Shark IP3251UKT

Average price in the past six months: £419
Cheapest price in the past six months: £282*

Shark IP3251UKT cordless vacuum
  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.6 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.8kg

We like: Good to use on stairs and high places

We don't like: Filter is fiddly to remove and clean

This cordless vac from Shark has an anti-hair wrap roller that the manufacturer claims won't get tangled up with long strands of hair, plus the motorised floor head is designed to detect the type of flooring it’s on and adjust the suction power accordingly. 

It has a hinged stick to help reach under low furniture, and can be transformed into a handheld cleaner for tackling tricky areas such as stairs, upholstery and car interiors. Supplied accessories including a gap tool and upholstery nozzle. 

It weighs 3.8kg, so it’s not too heavy, and has a 0.6-litre dust capacity, which isn't as generous as some.

Is this vacuum as good at dealing with hair as Shark claims? Find out in our full Shark IP3251UKT review.

Samsung Bespoke Jet AI Lite Pro Extra

Average price in the past six months: £795
Cheapest price in the past six months: £429*

Samsung Bespoke Jet AI Lite Pro Extra
  • Bagless and cordless handstick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.6 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 2.8kg

We like: A versatile cleaner

We don't like: Fairly noisy

While this cordless Samsung vac has been cheaper in the past, this is still a good saving. It has a dual brush floorhead for carpets and hard floors, as well as a ‘Spray Spinning’ sweeper head for mopping. This is used with the reusable round anti-bacterial pads and disposable wet pads – a pack of 10 is included.

This model also empties itself when you place it in the floor-standing docking unit, keeping you away from any mess. All you'll need to do is empty the dock’s dustbag when it's full.

Vax HomePro

Average price in the past six months: £201
Cheapest price in the past six months: £149*

Vax HomePro cordless vacuum cleaner

  • Bagless and cordless stick vacuum cleaner
  • 0.7 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 3.7kg

We like: Decent to use overall

We don't like: Noisy

This cordless handstick vacuum cleaner from the Vax HomePro range is the entry-level model, which comes with just a crevice tool. If you want more tools, you'll need to move up the range – the HomePro Plus adds a stair tool, the HomePro Pet adds a pet tool, and the top-of-the range HomePro Pet-Design adds a motorised pet tool.

The beauty of this simple model is the price. Just bear in mind it's not great for cleaning at height and it's noisy. It comes with a five-year guarantee with registration.

How well does this simple model clean? Find out in our full Vax HomePro review.

Corded vacuum cleaner deals

Shark Navigator NV180UK 

Average price in the past six months: £180
Cheapest price in the past six months: £126*

Shark Navigator Upright Corded Vacuum NV180UK

Buy it for £126 using the code RED30 at Argos.

  • Bagless and upright, corded vacuum cleaner
  • 3.5 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 6.2kg

We like: It's not noisy

We don't like: Lack of attachments makes it trickier to use

The Shark Navigator NV180UK is a corded, upright vacuum cleaner with a floorhead that has lights to illuminate any dust in its path, and it swivels to help you more easily manoeuvre around furniture.

The dust container has a decent 3.5-litre usable capacity, and the 8.3-metre reach means you can stray fairly far from the plug socket. 

Its hose can be detached for use with the crevice tool to clean gaps and stairs. However, there’s no dusting brush or upholstery tool included. Registration on the Shark website will give you a five-year warranty.

Robot vacuum cleaner deals

Eufy Clean X8 Pro with Self-Empty Station

Average price in the past six months: £383
Cheapest price in the past six months: £294*

Eufy X8 Pro
  • 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

The X8 Pro is one of Eufy's more affordable robot vacs. In addition to the vacuum cleaning, it also has a mop function.

It docks into its self-empty station without you 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.

To find out how it scores, discover the best robot vacuum cleaners according to our tests.

Samsung Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI+ Vacuum Cleaner

Average price in the past six months: £1036
Cheapest price in the past six months: £549*

Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Bot Combo AI
  • Robot vacuum cleaner
  • 2.5 litre dust capacity

We like: Intuitive app

We don’t like: Docking station is very bulky

Unlike its predecessor, the Samsung Jet Bot VR30T80313W, this model mops as well as vacuums, and the self-emptying dock makes the whole process properly hands-off. Do bear in mind that the docking station is bulky, though.

You can use the SmartThings app (requires a 2.4GHz wi-fi network) to customise your clean and specify any areas it should avoid. Samsung claims it runs for 180 minutes and takes five hours to charge.

To find out if it's better or worse than the Eufy model above, read our guide to the best robot vacuum cleaners.

How to spot a good deal on a vacuum cleaner

Humairaa Habib, Which? vacuum cleaner expert, says:

With some vacuums often 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, for example, Flexology (a flexible cleaning tube), 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 (for example, 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, because 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 because 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 V10 Absolute – 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.
