Goodness me. My hoover has died. After my [kettle](https://community.monzo.com/t/here-we-talk-about-kettles-and-the-occasional-hot-water-tap/140638) I’m not having a good week. So, what’s the community’s collected wisdom on vacuum cleaners? I’m not sure about Roombas yet (did Amazon buy them?) and currently have a Dyson (which seemed to offer more than it ever delivered). So, thoughts? _I remain disappointed in the forum’s lack of home appliance emoji_ ---

I’m a Dyson fan, but they can be very expensive. My friends rave about Shark hoovers though. They just don’t look as sleek as a Dyson. ---

My 11 year–old Dyson upright still works wonders, and I wash the filters every quarter. Not sure I’d buy another one as the man has turned out to be such a See You Next Tuesday. (As indeed has the CEO of Next this week.) ---

Can’t wait for the refrigerator thread so I can tell you all about how little time it was before the display on my Samsung (bought the same day as the Dyson) stopped working. ---

Both Brexit hypocrites. Dyson talks a load of nonsense about now having “Freedom of Spirit” and peddling the ‘trade deals’ arguments, and Wolfson was this week bemoaning the effect on the UK economy of the lack of immigrants, of all things! ---

I have a Miele C3. My parent’s Miele is 14 years in and still working absolutely fine which is why I went Miele. A pretty standard hoover that just does the job. I hate bagless hoovers, I guess that’s a choice but if you are looking for a hoover with bags I can recommend Miele. ---

Finally jumped into making a purchase, got a free car cleaning accessories pack with it, so just £199. One flexed it on one of my 6 month interest free an all. It comes out as decent in most car cleaning reviews I’ve seen. It’ll just live in my boot as I’ve no use for it around the house. > **[Multi MK2 K9](https://www.gtech.co.uk/cordless-vacuum-cleaners/handhelds/multi-mk2-k9.html)** > > Versatile and robust, our handheld vacuum is built for busy homes, with scented cartridges and a range of attachments to make cleaning more enjoyable. > > Strengthened with Aluminium > Powered Brush Bar > 20 Minutes' Runtime ---

Dyson here and will always be. I’ve tried other brands but I’ve yet to find one that beats it (I was going to write an innuendo but stopped myself 😂) Does the car, the house and it’s unreal how much dog hair it collects. Someone else was asking why Dyson. Honestly I’ve yet to have any issues with low suction, the battery running out after 5 min etc. > **[DYSON V7 Animal Cordless Cleaner](https://www.go-electrical.co.uk/dyson-v7-animal-cordless-cleaner?gclid=Cj0KCQiApb2bBhDYARIsAChHC9vk8p_agRoUqZ6j0etlROQeIxszAMENkZltR6ArRFQEIhutUG77ePUaAvaOEALw_wcB)** > > Powerful.

Henry is a monster. Made to last and great suction though perhaps not as modern looking as a Dyson. You can often get a good deal at Costco. Also excellent for cleaning out the car. ---

I agree Henry’s are classic and very well built. No different power settings though, only reason I chose Miele in the end, but I’d happily have one ---

I think there’s a kind of vent on the tubing of the Henry which reduces the suction (a bit primitive I know) but I always have it on full throttle anyway. BTW I had a Shark but was disappointed with it as it wasn’t very robust. However most on this thread seem to be Shark fans so I guess it’s all very subjective. ---

+1 for Gtech. I bought the upright, handheld and car accessories for £299 a couple of years ago as a Black Friday deal. [Next page](https://community.monzo.com/t/hoover-vacuum-cleaner-chat/140654.md?page=2)
