Vacuum Cleaners

Do you need an easy way to keep all the surfaces and fabrics that adorn your home clean and dust free in a convenient and user-friendly package? Then there’s a new vacuum cleaner waiting for you.

You can still purchase vacuum cleaners that use bags to collect dust, but these are becoming more and more obsolete. The new bagless models are available in upright or cylinder designs which will clean faster and more efficiently than ever, and because there’s no bag they tend to be more hygienic and easy to clean.



Upright vacuums will clean your wooden or tiled floors and carpets in the traditional push and pull way, while most come with attachments for cleaning stairs, curtains and upholstery and are great for getting into corners. These styles feature an automatically adjustable cleaner head so you don’t need to bend down and fiddle with it, an easy access blockage removal system and most use a long-life filter that’s washable and replaceable when dry. They also include a flexible ready-to-use hose that extends up to 6 times its original length, so you can clean all the way up the stairs without having to drag the machine along with you.

Cylinder designs are fitted with at least three wheels to make movement simple and effortless. Like their upright cousins, the bagless technology means that you get constant suction for even the toughest jobs. Some cylinder models come with a wrap around hose which makes storage a lot simpler. They are usually fitted with handles for easy movement and storage and are supplied with on board tools. Their portable nature means that you can also use them to clean out your car, caravan, boat, mobile home etc.

Most modern vacuum cleaners collect the dirt and dust in a clear plastic bin, which means you can see when the unit is nearly full and empty it at your convenience. Removing and emptying the bin is usually a one touch operation.

For the ultimate in time and energy saving, you can also purchase the latest robot technology which features intelligent navigation that will clean under beds and furniture or in corners. These are fully programmable and are fitted with sensors so they won’t accidentally fall down the stairs. Most units are rechargeable and will work on a full charge for up to two hours.

Commercial models tend to be even more powerful, with up to 1000 watts of power. These are also available in bagless design and can include a lifetime filter.
