It used to be relatively simple to buy a vacuum. But with the plethora of features found on today's vacuums, it can be extremely difficult to find the vacuum that has the features you need and at a price point acceptable to you. The two main categories of vacuums are uprights and canister vacuums. Uprights typically were used for carpets, while canisters were used for wood floors, although this delineation is starting to change. Uprights are less expensive and easier to maneuver and store. Canisters are quieter, provide easier access to hard to reach nooks and crannies and somewhat harder to maneuver and store.
How to choose? If you are concerned with price and have a lot of carpet in your house, you should probably opt for the upright. If you have hard wood floors and or would like to clean furniture or drapes, then the canister is the best option. Additionally, you will need to think about accessories and additional features. Air filters, which trap harmful pollen and dust, may be a necessity if you suffer from allergies. Bag less uprights relieve the burden of buying and changing bags, while dirt sensors alert you to the fact that the concentration of dirt particles has reached a certain level, freeing you from having to guess when your house it clean.
Before you buy, determine whether you need an upright or canister. Then, take a look at the features, and decide which are most important for you. Finally, compare prices and make the purchase!
