With upright, canister, HEPA filtered, bagged and bagless, there is always one that you can count on. There are 2 ways in which a vacuum cleaner works. First, and the way we rate a vacuum on most is how debris and dirt is picked up off of a carpet and the floor. When searching for a vacuum cleaner, the power of the suction motor, is very important for getting good performance. The second reason, which often left out, is about how well the vacuum filters the air and puts it back into the home. Those with allergy problems will find a HEPA vacuum to be the best choice. There are many models of HEPA vacuums that can filter out 99% of pollens, dust, and other common household allergens. There is also the choice of canister or upright vacuum, as this is more or less based on the personal preference. Both vacuum types have their advantage and disadvantages. The heads of canister vacuums are able to reach under your furniture, making it easier to vacuum the stairs. Canister vacuums have a retractable electric cord, which is much more convenient than wrapping the cord back around the neck of the vacuum. It is often times easier to push the light weight canister vacuum head as opposed to pushing a canister style vacuum. When choosing a vacuum cleaner, keep in mind of what you plan to vacuum. There are several types intended for different uses. If you have hardwood floors, you obviously wouldn't want to use a carpet vacuum. These little things will be a huge factor in selecting your vacuum cleaner. If you play your cards right, you'll have the perfect vacuum cleaner for your home.
