Vacuum cleaner recommendations - urgent 😄

I love my Henry but not for stairs.

I recently replaced my old Hetty (pink version of Henry) when it gave up the ghost with a Shark Lift Away upright. You can take it apart to do the stairs. Hetty was getting rather heavy to carry up and down the stairs and not picking up as well as it had.
My son has a Shark stick vac and is very happy with that, small and light. When I was looking he said buy a corded not rechargeable.

Look at Sebo.
They are upright vacuum cleaners.
John Lewis stock them.
They have excellent reviews and the one I have is about 12 years old and still going strong and cleaning well with no issues
A bonus is that they have all the additional tools stored on them.
The only downside is that it is rather heavy.

My Sebo upright is 24 yrs old and still perfect function on smooth floors or carpet, can't recommend it highly enough. I think I've replaced the filter and brushes once, spares easily available.

Dyson stick downstairs, miele upstairs, henry behind the sofa for cold ashes and sebo in the garage

Sebo is definitely most powerful, I was reluctant to let it go when I moved, far too heavy for the house. I did stock up with bags and filters, in case I cannot buy them in future

As you are moving, get something easy to use and lightweight, which does not take up much room, also cheaper than Dyson. I second Shark, I gave mine to my DD and she is delighted with it

I do use all my vac cleaners as appropriate

Thanks. There are so many models to choose from! Where to start.🫨
I am veering towards Shark as DD swears by hers.

My shark is parked in a corner as it is too heavy for my weak wrists. I use a Henry which I can just pull along.

Ask Nicola, her husband bought 5 so I am sure she could spare one 🤣

I don't know if you use Amazon, but they sell "open box" items, often at almost half price, and guaranteed to be as good as new.

Whatever you decide on, it may be worth seeing if you can get it for a bargain price.

I m just about to buy my second old fashioned vacuum cleaner with a long tube and a brush. This will go upstairs,

I have twice bought stick battery charged cleaners for the upstairs but I find the heavy motor and battery at the top of the stick unbalancing and I cannot get the brush right under some furniture because the head of the machine stops me being able to get the angle of the brush and stem flat enough to go underneath. I also find them flimsy and prone to break easily.

Definitely look at Shark....I love mine and so easy to use. There is a new design out since I bought mine. So have a look.

We have a Shark robot vacuum. It’s very good, saves me a lot of time.
