Samnuerly Cordless Handheld and Vacuum Cleaner for Home Car Wireless Aspirator Lithium Charging

Product Information

Shark has aspirations to be the new Dyson, and it has launched a series of premium cordless vacuums over the past few years. It's a really flexible model, with a great reach to get to every corner of your home and 60 minutes of runtime, so that you can adequately cover all the ground that you need to. It's also got an auto-adjustment feature, which means that it'll sense the kind of ground it's covering, and amp up the power accordingly. There's no doubt that our testing process proved that the Shark Stratos is worth the large price tag. Even if you don't have pets, the ease with which this vacuum does away with hair is astounding, and our Ecommerce Editor Molly found that it was unmatched when it came to suction.

Best cordless vacuum cleaner 2023: Powerful portable cleaning

At 2.4kg, this vacuum cleaner is super light. Unlike its big brother, there’s no trigger here, just a single power button to turn the vacuum cleaner on and off. If you struggle with holding a trigger down, then this vacuum cleaner is for you. The cleaner we reviewed came with a motorised floor brush, a 2-in-1 crevice tool and brush, an upholstery brush and a mini-motorised pet tool that worked wonders on stairs and sofas; you can buy the none-pet version that doesn’t have this tool, although it’s a useful addition for upholstery. It’s a shame that there’s no storage for these tools. Dyson's latest vacuum cleaner really is its best yet and one of the very best cordless vacuum on the market, hands down. It may be expensive but with better cleaning performance and suction power than the Dyson V11, and the same long-lasting battery for the same price tag, it's worth every penny.

Our reviewer Jen was impressed with the plentiful battery life of this vacuum which was more than sufficient for whipping around a 2-bed terraced home. She also found it was great to be able to adjust the cleaning modes which can make a difference to the battery life and noise level. Next up, think about what features you might need from your new cordless vacuum. If you have pets, that means looking for a vacuum that can handle hairs and even odors. You might need a range of attachments to handle various surfaces in your home or a vacuum that can easily transform into one of the best car vacuums. On the most useful middle level of power, we measured the cleaner at 57AW, which is towards the lower end of what we’d expect; on its high mode, power jumps to a more respectable 185AW: that’s plug-in levels of power for tough mess. Cordless vacuum cleaners are the easiest way to keep your home clean, giving you grab and go portability without having to faff around with plugs. Thanks to recent advances in technology, cordless cleaners now come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, designed to suit all kinds of users and jobs. With the power and battery life on offer, you can even buy models suitable for whole home cleaning, so that you don’t even need a traditional plug-in vacuum cleaner any more. Power trigger Some models require you to hold down the power button while cleaning. This is usually to save battery life but may not be suitable for everyone.

See how we stack up against the competition.

The Halo Capsule is different to most of the competition, as it takes bags. As bags capture all of the dirt and make for easier emptying, the Capsule is our favourite bagged cordless vacuum cleaner, and ideally suited to allergy sufferers thanks to its clean emptying. Key to this model’s success is the new anti-tangle floor head (and pet tool). It’s the first time that we’ve seen this technology on Hoover’s products, and it works brilliantly. We tested using long human hair and cat hair, and neither strands got tangled around the heads. Using technology from its fan purifiers, the V15 detect shows you on its LCD the level of dirt it’s collecting, and it uses that information to adjust motor power on the fly. We found that it worked brilliantly, upping power for very dusty areas and dropping down for cleaner parts of the floor.
