Perhaps your vacuum cleaner has written 30, and now you need to replace it with a new one. Soon you will realize that it’s not easy to find one immediately. With the number of vacuum cleaners online, it will be a challenge to choose the most suitable for your purpose.

The following are some wise questions you need to ask yourself before you buy a certain vacuum cleaner.

First is the type of flooring you have at home

It might be carpeted, or hard, or a combination of these. For homes that have carpeted floors or those that have a wide floor area, the upright vacuum cleaner is the best choice. But you can also find certain brands of canister type vacuum cleaners that are suitable for these. You have to pick one that has a floor nuzzle, height adjustment, and a motorized brush roll.

If you have hardwood flooring with carpeting here and there, the canister style vacuum cleaner is the best option. Find out that has a stylish floor brush that is highly maneuverable for working around and underneath any furniture. There are also those that have a combination of floor tools you can use.

Second you need to consider allergen control

You do spend almost 90 percent of the time indoors; well right now because of the pandemic it might be 100 percent. Indoors the pollutants can be 2 to 3 times higher than the usual outdoor level. This is important to consider when you have a family member or a loved one who has asthma or allergies. A vacuum cleaner that has HEPA filtration may be an important contribution to making the indoor air quality healthier for everyone. Also look for a vacuum cleaner that has a completely sealed system which can ensure that the indoor air is allergen free.

Third look into the bin capacity of the vacuum cleaner

This is particularly true when you have a large area to clean regularly. Having bins that are sufficient for your needs would help you avoid frequent disposal of the trash every now and then. Robot and handheld vacuum cleaners contain small bins while the upright types have larger ones.

You also have to consider how often you vacuum

The frequency of your cleaning may also be affected by the ease and convenience that your vacuum cleaner provides particularly in storing and accessing it. You may want to consider buying a robotic vacuum cleaner that can be scheduled to clean while you are out on an errand or busy at work so you can come home to squeaky clean floors. If there are areas where dirt and duct often accumulate, it’s better for you to have stick vacuum cleaners. There are also compact and lightweight upright vacuum cleaner units appropriate for this need.
