Cordless vacuum

dan2002 · 12 Nov 2025

Hi. I was looking to purchase a cordless vacuum for my bedroom etc. Would you guys say this is a decent one for the price? Bare in mind not looking to spend a ridiculous amount. Maximum price willing to spend is £90.

Amazon.co.uk

Also is corded better than cordless? Have never owned cordless but looking for a change as have been through 2 corded cycliner vacuums and both went faulty.

Corded are always more capable, than cordless which have limited power. Cordless though, are handy to have, quicker to use.

Was thinking the same.

Would you say the attached link I added above is a decent option to go for?

The cordless require emptying at almost every use , so not as quick or convenient as you may think .

Makes sense.

Would you say this corded one I am better off going with?

We have a similar dyson model which is fine for upstairs use here (3 beds and bathroom). You spend most of your time in bed so shouldn't need much vacuuming.

Thats true. I have ocd of cleaning. I have to vacuum frequently so I think cordless would benefit me.

Most likely will just get the cordless, reviews seem good etc.

Am a convert to cordless having got a second hand Dyson. Very powerful on full power and lasts long enough to do carpets in a couple of rooms. But its real strength is that it complements a powered hoover. It is used for one off jobs and the car. Takes hours to charge, rather than minutes so gets topped up.

We have several, around the place....

A corded upstairs, one down, and a cordless Dyson in the under stair cupboard, on the wall, on charge ready to use, plus a big Henry in the workshop, for the rough. That was being chucked out, where Av works, nowt wrong with it.

The Dyson is handy for cleaning the odd spill up, but the Dyson corded comes out for the more serious cleaning.

I have had various hand held cordless vacuum cleaners, great for the stairs, but for anything else, all been hopeless, when the government restricted the power for vacuum cleaners, it doubled the time to clean, but we have found as long as one does not need to spend time behind the vacuum cleaner, that does not matter so much, so we have tried using cordless

and they clean OK, but get tangled up with anything left on the floor, and the cats don't like them.
