List of vacuum cleaners

This is a list of vacuum cleaners and vacuum cleaner manufacturers. A vacuum cleaner is a device that uses an air pump to create a partial vacuum to suck up dust and dirt, usually from floors, and optionally from other surfaces as well. The dirt is collected by either a dustbag or a rigid cartridge, which may be emptied and reused. Vacuum cleaners are used in homes as well as in industry, and exist in a variety of sizes and models.

A robotic vacuum cleaner is an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner that has intelligent programming and a limited vacuum cleaning system. Some designs use spinning brushes to reach tight corners. Others combine a number of cleaning features (mopping, UV sterilization, etc.) simultaneous to vacuuming, thus rendering the machine into more than just a robot "vacuum" cleaner.

Manufacturers and specific models include:


Upright vaccum cleaners

Upright vacuum cleaners are an "all-in-one" unit, with the motor, dust collector, and cleaning head are all attached.

Bagless

  • Shark Navigator
  • Dyson Ball

Stick vacuum cleaners are a lighter and sleeker variety of upright vacuum cleaner, typically with no bag. Models include:

  • Shark Rocket
  • Dyson V-series

Bagged

  • Hoover Windtunnel


Canister vacuum cleaners

Canister vacuum cleaners separate their motor and dust collection system. These two components are frequently connected by a hose.

Bagless

  • Dyson Big Ball

Bagged

  • Panasonic MC-CG902
  • BISSELL BGU1451T
  • Oreck XL2100RHS
