Next to folding laundry and doing dishes, is any chore as mundane as vacuuming? Sure, it’s a necessary evil, but more often than not, it’s hard to find a vacuum that’s lightweight, powerful, and maneuverable. Thankfully, we’ve rounded up the top eight vacuums on the market today that don’t suck (pun intended).
Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum
Dyson is to vacuums as Apple is to phones — everything is top-of-the-line. Their tried-and-true model, the V8, is one of the hardest-working and easy-to-use vacuums on the market. Its minimal design and wall-mount charging are great for clean aesthetics and small living spaces.
Bissell 2252
For an all-around great vacuum, Bissell’s 2252 model has you covered. Pet hair can be the bane of any homeowner’s existence, but the vacuum’s specialty tools to lift and suck up all those stray kitty hairs make cleaning up a breeze.
Shark NV360
Even the best vacuums can’t get all the dander and dust, so a vacuum designed for sensitive noses and allergies can be a lifesaver. Shark’s NV360’s suite of tools is excellent for allergens trapped in furniture upholstery that may be missed by other vacuums on the market.

Coming in at just over 2 pounds and its powerful suction, it’s an easy vacuum — and dare we say fun? — to use.
