How you charge your cordless vacuum cleaner will depend on the make and model that you have purchased. Looking at the Beko PowerClean Pro's stats, it'd be easy to think that it sounds a bit too good to be true. This bagless vacuum isn't as sturdily built as the Miele Complete C3, with a mainly plastic body that creaks and flexes while in use, which is pretty disappointing for something this expensive. Still, if you want to avoid swapping out dirtbags, the Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister could be worth a look, as it delivers an overall cleaning and suction performance similar to the Mighty Mite. It made the vacuuming process straightforward, requiring only one pass on all floor types, although we did find that it ran out of battery on the normal cleaning mode after 31 minutes.

Everything you need to know is contained in this handy guide, with premium and budget-friendly brands sitting side by side – we're talking Shark, Dyson, Miele and Vax just to name a few. However, its bagless design means emptying its dustbin is a slightly more complicated, less hygienic process, as you'll need to worry about the bin expelling a cloud of dirt and debris.The cordlessness makes it very convenient to use, and the suction was fairly impressive on a number of the easier tasks (such as vacuuming oats and flour). Replaced Shark Cordless Pro with Tineco PURE ONE S11 as 'Best Lower Mid-Range Cordless Vacuum' due to current pricing.

As for the digital display, which has become a staple of cordless vacuums these days, with Dyson, Miele, Samsung and Shark all using the feature, you can use it to see how much run time you have left based on the mode you’re using. With 230AW of suction power, this vacuum is one of the most potent household-oriented cordless models on the market. As with the Blade 4, the Blade 5 design makes it easy to clean underneath furniture and around corners, and the floorhead rotation means there's minimal wrist work to pick up dirt and dust.For homes with a number of floors or a lot of pet hair to pick up, we've got top-rated corded vacuums, and the best cordless vacuum cleaners are also at hand for those in flats or smaller homes.

It's the little things that make this vacuum great, alongside the pet-appropriate level of power and suction. The larger floorhead also makes cleaning much quicker than with the Blade 4, and all of the tests we threw at this vacuum were dealt with quickly and efficiently. This is a standout vacuum due to its power, pick-up ability and features to aid your cleaning routine.This vacuum has a 230AW suction motor, which is remarkably powerful for a cordless stick vacuum and allows it to clear away a wide range of debris on different surfaces. It has three speeds, but we found that we never needed to use the maximum strength, even on seriously dusty room and grubby carpets. Replaced JASHEN V16 with Shark Pet Cordless (IX141) as 'Best Budget Cordless Vacuum' pick due to current availability. One drawback is that Miele does recommend replacing the bag with each use, which would be a recurring cost.
