7 Best Everyday Vacuums of 2025

This cordless powerhouse redefines daily cleaning with its 45,000Pa suction and 55-minute runtime, making it a go-to for pet owners and busy households. The anti-tangle brush roll is a game-changer—no more pausing to cut hair from the roller—and the LED headlights expose dust bunnies lurking under the couch like a detective’s flashlight. With a dual HEPA + stainless-steel filtration system, it traps 99.99% of allergens, turning air quality into a silent win for sensitive households.

In real-world use, the iXlion shines on mixed flooring—effortlessly transitioning from hardwood to medium-pile carpet without losing suction. The three power modes let you stretch battery life during quick sweeps or unleash maximum power for deep carpet cleans. We tested it on stairs, furniture, and car interiors, and the detachable battery means you can keep a spare charged and swap seamlessly. However, the dust bin is on the smaller side, requiring mid-clean emptying during whole-home sessions.

Compared to the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder, the iXlion delivers longer runtime and stronger suction, though it lacks self-standing convenience. Against the Shark HV322, it trades corded reliability for true cordless freedom and wall-mount charging. It’s ideal for apartment dwellers, pet parents, and multi-surface homes that prioritize daily maintenance over marathon cleaning. For performance, runtime, and filtration, it outguns similarly priced cordless models with a more complete toolset.

The Eureka 3670M is a quiet but mighty workhorse, delivering continuous 12-amp suction that doesn’t quit—perfect for deep-cleaning entire homes in one go. Its 2.5-liter dust bag means fewer stops, and the lightweight 8.6 lb body makes it easy to tote from room to room, up stairs, or into the car. This bagged canister vacuum excels at whole-home cleanups, especially on carpets and upholstery, where sustained suction pulls out dust and pet hair others leave behind.

During testing, the 1200W motor maintained strong airflow even after 20 minutes of continuous use—a rarity in budget canisters. The two extension wands and included tools let us dust ceiling corners, clean under furniture, and detail car seats with ease. It handled both low-pile rugs and area carpets well, though on high-pile it required slower passes to fully extract debris. The bagged system keeps dust contained, but the lack of a HEPA filter means allergen sufferers may want to look elsewhere.

When stacked against the Bissell CleanView, the Eureka trades upright agility for superior reach and quieter operation. It’s not as nimble as stick vacuums like the Shark HV322, but it dominates in endurance and capacity. This is the pick for larger homes, allergy-light households, and users who value hassle-free bag changes over cordless convenience. For whole-home power and mess-free disposal, it outperforms pricier stick models in sustained cleaning tasks.

The Shark HV322 is a featherweight dynamo built for speed and agility, turning pet hair cleanup into a one-pass mission. With LED headlights that reveal hidden fur and an XL 0.68-quart dust cup, it minimizes interruptions during daily touch-ups. Its corded design ensures endless runtime, and the instant convert-to-handheld function lets you go from floor to furniture in seconds—no charging, no battery anxiety. This is daily cleaning simplified: powerful, reliable, and always ready.

In real-world use, the strong suction tackled embedded dog hair on rugs and stairs with ease, and the pet multi-tool made quick work of couch cushions. The lightweight body (under 8 lbs) and swivel-friendly neck made it a breeze to clean under tables and around legs. However, the cord limits range, and dragging it across rooms can feel clunky compared to cordless rivals. It performs best in small to medium homes where outlets are accessible.

Compared to the iXlion, the Shark lacks battery flexibility but wins on consistency and instant power. Against the Bissell Featherweight, it offers larger capacity and better pet tools, though at a higher weight. It’s perfect for pet owners who want a no-fuss, always-ready vacuum for daily messes and quick transformations. For lightweight performance and pet-specific tools, it beats cordless competitors in reliability and ease of use.

Meet the pet hair assassin: the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder, engineered to find and eliminate embedded fur like no other. Its 200W motor and FurFinder headlights expose dust and hair in dark corners, while the tangle-free brush roll slices through fur without clogging. The self-standing design is a small luxury that pays off—pause cleaning mid-sweep, let it stand on its own, then resume without fumbling. For pet owners, this is daily maintenance made effortless.

We tested it on car seats, stairs, and plush rugs, and it consistently removed over 90% of embedded pet hair, often in a single pass. The up to 40-minute runtime (in low mode) handles most homes, though turbo mode drains it fast at 13 minutes. The removable battery lets you charge extras, and the HEPA-sealed system traps allergens effectively. However, the dust bin is compact, requiring frequent emptying during large jobs.

Against the iXlion, the FurFinder trades raw suction power for pet-specific intelligence and self-standing convenience. Compared to the Shark HV322, it offers true cordless freedom but lacks endless corded runtime. It’s ideal for homes with multiple pets, long-haired animals, or allergy sufferers who need targeted, tangle-free cleaning. For pet hair performance and smart design, it outclasses rivals with superior tool integration and visibility.

The Bissell Featherweight 2033 is the snack-sized hero of quick cleanups—light, simple, and always within reach. Weighing under 5 pounds, it’s perfect for spot cleaning spills, crumbs, or tracked-in dirt before they become messes. The 15-foot power cord gives solid range, and the three-in-one design (stick, handheld, stair vacuum) means it’s always ready for a countertop spill or car seat refresh. For daily touch-ups, it’s unbeatable in simplicity and speed.

In action, it handles hard floors and low-pile rugs well, with enough suction to grab cereal bits and pet kibble. The crevice tool fits into tight spaces, and the 0.67L dirt cup is easy to empty—though it fills fast during larger jobs. It struggles on deep carpet cleaning and lacks LED lights or HEPA filtration, so it’s not meant for whole-home sessions. But for kitchen crumbs, bathroom dust, or post-meal sweeps, it’s a no-brainer for convenience.

Compared to the Shark HV322, it’s lighter and cheaper but less powerful and versatile. Against the Eureka NEU10AE5, it’s more portable but less effective on carpets. It’s best for dorm rooms, small apartments, or as a secondary vacuum for fast jobs. For quick, lightweight cleanups, it delivers unmatched ease without cluttering your closet.

The Eureka NEU10AE5 is a budget-savvy upright that punches above its weight with strong suction and smart ergonomics. At just 7.7 pounds, it’s one of the lightest uprights on the market, making it ideal for seniors, teens, or anyone tired of wrestling heavy cleaners. The 10.5-inch cleaning path covers ground fast, and the washable filter cuts long-term costs—no replacements needed. It’s perfect for daily carpet maintenance and hard floor pickups without breaking the bank.

Testing revealed solid performance on low to medium-pile carpets, pulling up pet hair and dust with ease. The on-board crevice tool and dusting brush are always within reach, and the quick-release handle lets you clean stairs and furniture without lugging the whole unit. However, the dust bin is small, and suction dips slightly on high-pile rugs. It’s not built for deep cleans, but for daily upkeep, it’s surprisingly capable.

Next to the Bissell Featherweight, it’s more powerful and carpet-ready but less portable. Against the Bissell CleanView, it lacks swivel steering and extension wand, but wins on price and weight. It’s the go-to for budget-conscious families, renters, or first-time buyers who need basic, reliable cleaning. For value and ease of use, it outperforms many pricier uprights in lightweight functionality.

The Bissell CleanView 2024 is the ultimate all-rounder, blending swivel agility, powerful cyclonic suction, and thoughtful design into a single seamless machine. Its triple action brush roll doesn’t just spin—it loosens, lifts, and removes embedded dirt like a deep-tissue massage for carpets. The 360-degree swivel steering makes it effortless to navigate around furniture, and the active extension wand reaches under beds without bending. For daily whole-home cleaning, it’s engineered for efficiency.

In real use, it excelled on both carpets and hard floors, with scatter-free technology keeping debris from flying during hard-surface cleaning. The easy-empty dirt tank minimizes contact with dust, and the multi-cyclonic system maintains suction even as the bin fills. We tested it on pet hair, cereal spills, and tracked-in mud—it handled all with minimal passes. It’s heavier than stick vacuums, but the smooth glide wheels make it easy to push.

Compared to the Eureka NEU10AE5, it’s more maneuverable and powerful, though pricier. Against the Shark HV322, it offers larger capacity and better carpet performance but lacks handheld conversion. It’s ideal for families, pet owners, and multi-surface homes that want one vacuum to rule them all. For overall performance, features, and ease of use, it stands above the rest with superior engineering and daily reliability.
