How to choose your bagless vacuum cleaner?
Today, the vacuum cleaner market is extremely rich and diverse. Between vacuum cleaners with or without bag, the broom vacuum cleaners, the robot vacuum cleaners, the robot vacuum cleaners or even the hand vacuum cleaners, there is sometimes something to get lost.
To help you choose the best bagless canister vacuum cleaner, here is the list of important criteria to consider before any purchase:
- The power : few manufacturers give real quantified information on the power of their devices. At best, they will tell you about the rating obtained for the efficiency of the vacuum cleaner on hard floors and on carpets / rugs, identified by a letter from A to G (as for the energy class). In the end, it’s best to consult expert tests and user reviews to get the best possible idea of how well the vacuum cleaner actually works.
- Filtration : it is important because the vacuum cleaner has to retain a maximum of dust particles, even the finest. The HEPA filter is one of the most qualitative, because it meets certain certifications to ensure exemplary air purity at the outlet.
- The dust collector : its size can go from single to double depending on the model, which should not be neglected depending on the use you will make of your vacuum cleaner. A small tank can be, for example, restrictive for the owners of animals, and obliges, in all cases, to a regular emptying — which is never the most pleasant maneuver to perform, even with the most advanced vacuum cleaner.
- Ergonomics : Since your vacuum cleaner will follow you everywhere, its weight and maneuverability should be considered. The main disadvantage of the canister vacuum cleaner is the presence of a power cable: its length is a determining factor, because it more or less limits your range of action.
- The accessories : Sometimes it’s the included accessories that take you from a nightmarish cleaning experience to quick, simple and effective action. The brushes will determine the efficiency of your vacuum cleaner based on the surface you are treating. Turbo brushes, in particular, are of interest to pet owners.
- The noise : when you know that the feeling of noise doubles every 3 dB, you might as well say that the difference between a vacuum cleaner at 80 dB and one at 64 dB is obvious. Note that bagless vacuums are generally louder than those with bag, because the latter serves as a sound insulation.
