Look at my channel for a video of vacuums and flat-screen TV's piled up in the walk-in E-waste dumpster at the transfer station (dump) of my small town. I see Bissel, Hoover and Shark vacuums cin there regularly, and the occasional Dyson, but I have never seen a Sebo or Miele vacuum in there. I was tempted to take one of the Dyson home and play with it and see what was needed to fix it ---- presuming it was actually broken, which it might not truly have been ---- But I already have 2 Sebo vacs and my wife takes a dim view of me bringing home more projects in need of repair.

You missed a very important option...that is the ability to decrease suction. I have a newer home with very plush carpets like a lot of new homes or those with newer carpets. I bought a Dyson at Costco since I've used them in the past. I had to take it back because the suction was so strong on my carpets that I couldn't push it. Costco said several people had brought theirs back for the same reason. I replaced it with a Shark vacuum. Its suction can be turned down if needed by sliding a lever. It is the best vacuum I've ever owned.

It’s funny how one man cornered the honest reviews market
After growing up with moms kirby that had a dark blue soft felt outside, she upgraded to a newer kirby with a carpet shampoo head sometime when I was around 14. We never ended up using any of the carpet shampoo stuff for the six years we had it before something internal burned out. It still ran and picked up but something inside absolutely fried and just stank up the place when you'd use it for longer than a minute. In the last year we used it was when it would begin to smoke and that's when I purchased a used dyson cordless v8. As you might expect, mom loved the new vacuum. It worked just as well, was much quieter, no cord to worry about... then the battery pack died. Got a third party replacement, works fine.

My mom had a Sebo and currently owns a Miele. I dislike both. They got terrible ergonomics when it comes to the handle of the vacuuming wand. Unlike those my wrists were not in pain with using a Shark or Dyson. I got carpel tunnel and arthritis and those german brands agitate my wrists the most. I also found the fit and finish of the plastic parts to be heavily disappointing especially at the handle of Miele. I could feel the sharp plastic sticking out. On another note the Miele wasn't able to dig and remove as much of built up kitty litter in a basement rug. I vacuumed the same rug afterwards with a Dyson V6 stick vacuum with HEPA filter attachment. Both vacuums used powered brush heads, no brushes powered by air. The dyson removed litter that the Miele couldn't.

Fellow Project Farm followers, while this is a good video, and everything else Project Farm does is awesome - the Vacuum wars channel here on KZread does these same style technical reviews, and they are way more comprehensive! They focus only on vacuums (and mops/carpet cleaners/etc too technically), but another good channel to check out if you’re in the market for a better vacuum! After finding the vacuum wars channel, I ended up replacing my upright canister corded, hand held, and getting my first robot vacuum. I am SO happy with them. My floors are now cleaner than they’ve ever been, and I spend way less time keeping them that way.
I used to work at a vacuum cleaner store repairing and selling vacuum cleaners. I've owned a Riccar upright vacuum for 15yrs and only ever replaced the belt and roller brushes. They are really well built and made in Missouri! I've had all of these vacuums apart at one time or another and in my opinion the quality that matters is rubber wheels, large amp low rpm electric motors, and metal rollers with replaceable brushes. Also, HEPA filters can restrict the air flow so I use pleated or charcoal, but use a HEPA bag.

Thank you! well done! In our own case (we have tested vacuums for decades) we found that lifting "stuff" is not as important as dealing with hair that wraps around the brush/roller (everyone has long hair) and have never found a unit that is significantly superior at helping us deal with hair. We found that over time the hair issue gets worse because in some models it slows the motor, damaging it, others are difficult to disassemble to get the roller out to get access to the hair so we cam cut it out and their (mostly plastic parts) fall apart or are damaged so now it doesn't clean the floors very well. None of our girls have hair as short as 5" so for us that ids far too short to test with, we found that there is a non-linear relationship so as the hair gets longer it tends to get more wrapped around the roller much faster. We also tested modestly priced vacuums that claim to be pet hair oriented and they seemed (in our subjective tests over the years) to collect more hair on just one pass (we always do multiple passes in the real world) but are not easy to remove the lomgt hair from the roller so its tedious to de-hair the roller.

I purchased the Shark Stratos nearly a year ago after watching/reading dozens of similar comparison videos and consumer reports. I have no complaints with it. It does its work well, all of the maintenance tasks are quick and easy, The deodorizer on the lowest setting is a pleasant feature, its ability to pop off the base makes things like vacuuming ceiling fans and the tops of cupboards less clumsy. I'm glad people love their Dysons, but I figured I'd mention that the Stratos is a fantastic machine that I'm very glad I invested in.

I Loved my Electrolux. Bought it in 1980 for $600. Huge cost, but it was 100% dust capture and the heads were REAL power heads with their own motors. Not using the vacuum suction to drive the motors. It last 14 yrs and 3 dogs and a cat, and 2 boys! Great canister vacuum!

My mom only used Electrolux. The original I grew up with, which she ventually had to replace, and then she replaced that one. She used the kind where the vacuum was on the floor and the hose was attached to that. Her newest vacuum is a cordless, not an Electrolux. Her last two Electrolux didn't last nearly as long as the original I knew growing up, and she says her new cordless seems just as good, with way less weight and no cord.

A feature I’ve come to love is headlights. I picked up a Shark cordless at Costco and it has lights on the head at floor level. On bare floors I turn the lights off and those lights will show you every bit of dirt and hair. With my vacuums without lights a flashlight turned on and laid on the floor really helps.

Vacuum Wars -- a KZread channel -- _ONLY_ does vacuums. And his tests are so good that the industry adopted some of them.
Again, another great comparison. There is one, key component I believe needs consideration, Serviceability. I learned this the hard way on the Shark vacuum we bought. It ran great until it needed a new belt (very common service part). Not only is the machine assembled with security screws, the housing is built to literally break if you have the specialty screwdrivers to open it (and I do). Takes "designed obsolescence" to a new level!

Curious what model you had? My wife owns a cleaning company and I service all her Sharks (only thing she'll get). I have yet to find anything but phillips head screws on them and haven't had to replace a single belt. Usually hoses are what end up being my number one problem, second would be various plastic clips.
I was so impressed with my Dyson. Far exceeded my expectations of what a consumer vacuum could do. It's like an air and brush massacre of anything trapped in the carpet. It's also so powerful that it unmats matted carpet with ease, even in the highest-traffic areas of my house. Gets pet hair out of places I didn't even realize had trapped pet hair. The attachments are great for dusty HVAC registers and ceilings too. And the upholstery attachments make my furniture and car look new again.
My grandmother had a Kirby that seemed indestructible but we sold it when she passed. Years of going through cheap plastic vacuums became tiresome and I finally decided to buy a Kirby again about two years ago and will never look back. They’re absolute battle tanks. Loud, heavy, but will live forever and clean better.

They just work better with carpets. My Miele corded vacuum has several times the suction and airflow of even a decent cordless vacuum like the Dyson, it is able to pick up dirt from the edges of carpets, whereas cordless vacuums rely heavily on the brushes to collect debris. They are also a lot better at picking up large and/or dense pieces. That's not to say that brushes are a bad idea, they work well to loosen car hair from wool carpets for example. And really, with the capacity of the bags the price per use is negligeble. Total that up against the longer lifetime and not needing to buy batteries and they probably come out cheaper.

Great video as always. I used to sell Kirbys and Rainbows. My only issue with the testing if you sealed the vacuums for the CFM/MPH test. No one does that. It's not a real-world test. A crappy vac with weak power will still lift a bowling ball with a good seal. I know this because it's one of the things I used to show when demoing the vacs I used to sell. A high-power, high CFM vac isn't going to work efficiently if it's got leaks. I've seen plenty of crappy vacs pull out more dirt than "better" vacs because they had a better seal to the floor and less leaking.

One thing I didn't notice in your tests was overall envelope integrity/seal. There's a vacuum review guy on youtube that does a pretty good independent job like yourself, and a big factor for some of the models you tested is how well they filter their exhaust, and how good of a seal everything has. The dyson was out of our price range, so I ended up getting us a Shark Navigator (2 years ago), the lowest cost high-performing HEPA sealed upright I could find at the time. It punches pretty close to a Dyson IMO, but most importantly, it maintains our air quality while cleaning. This doubly benefits with no settled dust an hour following cleaning. Our previous walmart vacuum did horribly with this.

The suction is really good too compared to others in it's price range & it doesn't feel like the lightweight pcs of crap in that price range either. It's solid & I love that I only need to rinse the filters every so often & quickly run a seam ripper across brush roll to clear hair off. No disposable filters to buy, no belts to replace & it does the job I bought it for.

Usually it’s sharks that people go through every few years. They are designed to break, you have the exception not the rule.
I bought a Shark vacuum many years ago and I love it! Some of the reasons we bought a Shark is because of its suction power, its claim to never lose suction and its "complete seal" technology. That's one of Sharks biggest selling points, that I see in EVERY infomercial. Maybe you could add another test to this and put the vacuums into a sealed chamber to see how well they clean by not spitting dust out of the cracks and seals. I would be very interested in seeing how well each one does, to know for sure if my Shark really doesn't spit dust back out into the air like they claim it doesn't. Thanks, really enjoy your thorough reviews on products!

The Bissell will last as long or longer than the stupidly expensive ones. I own 2 that are over a decade old and run as good as they did new.
I believe that for all tests, having the lane widths the same width as the head (or perhaps roller) would have been a better test for picking up the sand, rice, hair etc. This is because it takes into account both the width and how many passes it would take for any given area vacuumed - we tend to vacuum by overlapping passes - and it would also call out the vacuums which did not have enough suction for their head width. This provides a fair overall comparison between vacuum efficiency (how much it picks up in one pass) vs how many passes I would need to make for a given area (function of the head/roller width).
Man, you really helped make my decision making easy. More importantly, all your videos are very well done. Thank you sir!

I know no one asked, but in ~2017 we bought a Miele C1 can&hose type vacuum. The price made my eyes water, but at the time we lived in a two story home that had deep pile carpet in all the rooms except for the kitchen and baths so we really needed a good vacuum. A couple years later we moved into a split-level house with deep pile carpet, and last December into a ranch with hard floors except a couple of area rugs. It has been an absolute champ throughout, including quite a lot of “off label” use in the basement and garage since January, cleaning up moving dirt and contractors and all manner of whatnot. The only things I do not love about it are its propensity to wind hair around the brush, and that removing and reinstalling the brush is tricky.

A little secret/dirty trick is that Mieles are better for "off label use" than even some bagged shopvacs but obviously a Miele isn't as expendable. The bags are VERY difficult to pierce, and while some human hair can weasel it way through the layers over like ~8 months: sawdust, staples, small nails, and the like don't stand a chance. I've cleaned drywall dust too but I'm unsure if the bag can actually capture it all, and some of it doesn't pass the motor and land in the hepa.

One important factor is whether the system is sealed, meaning, the dust/dander/skin cells (yes, that stuff) is staying in the canister and not going out of the exhaust. VERY important factor for me with any vacuum purchase. One easy test is if it smells bad after you vacuum, that’s because all that stuff settled on the ground is up in the air and into your nose. Or if you have an air purifier, it’ll probably be going off while you are vacuuming too. Buy a sealed system, it’s worth it.

If you want to know what a racket product marketing is, here's a quick story. I work with a guy that used to be a technician for Hoover. Hoover used the exact same motor in every vacuum from cheap to flagship. The difference in performance came from them having holes in the suction tube on the cheaper models, creating less air flow. The difference in wattage was caused by the motor pulling more amperage from the restricted air flow on the higher end models.

Nice review of big box store vacuums. Understandable no vacuum store vacs (Sebo, Riccar, Miele) were included as they begin around $600 (Sebo and Riccar offer some close to that cost), but they tend to perform better.
I love your reviews, it reminds me of the old Consumer Reports days. We actually just bought the Bissell Compact at Walmart 2 weeks ago to keep in our cabin. It does a good enough job for us. Have you ever done a steak knife set review? I'm talking about the butcher block sets. Theres alot of crappy sets out there.

We went from a Dyson to a Shark Vertex and couldn't be happier. On hard floors, the Dyson would actually push debris around rather than suck it up. Very frustrating. The Vertex picked up everything on any surface. Awesome vacuum.

Thanks for the feedback.
Great testing and review!
What a great vacuum study you've done here!! Last year I did so much research before finally selecting my SEBO Airbelt E3 Premium (which I realize is not in the realm of what you researched here) ... but watching your various tests makes me want to give them a try on my vacuum!
