1. Top Choice – Shark Upright Vacuum Cleaner [NZ850UK] with Powered Lift-Away, Anti Hair Wrap<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Shark](\"https:\/\/appliancehunter.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Shark-Upright-Vacuum-Cleaner-NZ850UK-with-Powered-Lift-Away-Anti-Hair-Wrap.png\")
<\/div>\n\nBrand: <\/strong>Shark<\/p>\nType: <\/strong>Upright<\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Very powerful suction<\/li>\n
- Anti-hair wrap technology to stop clogs<\/li>\n
- Works on hard floors and carpet<\/li>\n
- 5-year guarantee<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Quite heavy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\nAvailable at Ebay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nI love Shark vacuums, they come up time and time again across all my articles because they offer superb suction and great value for money. The latest Dyson is probably “better” but the prices are getting out of control so in my mind they aren’t as worth the money.<\/p>\n
This NZ850 was a great step up over the NZ800 because they managed to somehow increase the suction by 25%! That is some serious suction power and will get in and clean even deep piles and old carpets. First run around you’re going to be slightly horrified at how much dirt gets picked up.<\/p>\n
There is an allergy seal around the tank that traps in 99.9% of dust and allergens, which combined with the serious suction leaves you with a ridiculously clean house. The body also lifts out so that you can vacuum any stairs or high corners with the hose for a full house clean.<\/p>\n
Its main downside is that all that power and suction comes at a cost, and that’s the weight of the whole thing, it is on the heavier side as far as vacuums go so it takes a bit of work to get around the house. But you can lower the suction for easier movement and the deep clean is absolutely worth it.<\/p>\n
If you care about cleanliness and keeping your house clean and fresh then you won’t do better than with the Shark NV850UK. Oh, and did I mention the anti-hair wrap that stops long hair from getting tangled around the brush head? Genius.<\/p>\n
2. Best Cordless HEPA Vacuum – Dyson V8 Animal Complete Cordless Vacuum Cleaner<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"](\"https:\/\/appliancehunter.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Dyson-V8-Animal-Complete-Cordless-Vacuum-Cleaner.jpg\")
<\/div>\n\nBrand: <\/strong>Dyson<\/p>\nType: <\/strong>Stick vacuum cleaner<\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Lightweight<\/li>\n
- 40-minutes run time<\/li>\n
- mini motorised tool for upholstery cleaning<\/li>\n
- Certified asthma and allergy-friendly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Needs charged<\/li>\n
- Higher price<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThis is easily the best vacuum cleaner if you’re worried about allergies or you’re looking to ease asthma, the 40-minute run time is plenty to get around your whole house and it’s light enough for easy daily cleaning.<\/p>\n
It’s got a motorised brush head for maximum pick up but it can also be used as a handheld vacuum that also has a smaller motorised brush to get pet hair up our furniture but also every other little speck of dust.<\/p>\n
The filter<\/a> is the best you can get, you can trust Dyson to provide you with the best there is. The only reason this isn’t my top choice is it’s more expensive, but I can assure you it’s my favourite vacuum cleaner and worth every penny.<\/p>\nIt’s got all the accessories you need for a deep clean of your house and a 1.8 m long cord for charging. But with 40 minutes run time you don’t ever need to use it corded.<\/p>\n
It also charges with a charging station that you mount on the wall for easy storage.<\/p>\n
The best vacuum cleaner for allergies, or if you’ve got someone coming over who has allergies.<\/p>\n
3. Best For pet allergies – Miele Blizzard CX1 Excellence PowerLine Bagless Vacuum Cleaner<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Miele](\"https:\/\/appliancehunter.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Miele-Blizzard-CX1-Excellence-PowerLine-Bagless-Vacuum-Cleaner.jpg\")
<\/div>\n\nBrand: <\/strong>Miele<\/p>\nType: <\/strong>Bagless canister<\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Hygienic emptying<\/li>\n
- HEPA AirClean Lifetime filter<\/li>\n
- Powerful suction power<\/li>\n
- 10m cleaning reach<\/li>\n
- 2L capacity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Not good on furniture<\/li>\n
- Heavy for its size at 9kg<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThis is an excellent choice if you’re looking to get a deep clean because this Miele uses Vortex technology to separate the big dirt you pick up before the fine dust particles are fed through a separate HEPA filter. The airflow speeds actually exceed 100 km\/h!<\/p>\n
\u200bThis leaves you with a deeper clean but does not mean you have to periodically clean out the filter.<\/p>\n
Good on hardwood floors and carpets thanks to the adjustable power settings, and it’s got a 2-year guarantee but has been tested for the equivalent of 20 years of use!<\/p>\n
It might seem more expensive than other canister vacuums but you can’t argue with 20 years worth of quality.<\/p>\n
Emptying is a breeze because you just open the container from the bottom once it’s in the bin and all the dust falls out the bottom, and because all the fine dust is collected in the filter it doesn’t cause a big cloud when you empty it.<\/p>\n
Overall: <\/strong>A super choice of allergy vacuum, that picks up pet dander, pet hair, allergens from the air, and everything else.<\/p>\n4. Best Canister Vacuum – Hoover Enigma Pets Bagged Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Hoover](\"https:\/\/appliancehunter.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Hoover-Enigma-Pets-Bagged-Cylinder-Vacuum-Cleaner.jpg\")
<\/div>\n\nBrand: Hoover<\/strong><\/p>\nType: <\/strong>Bagged canister<\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Quiet 66db<\/li>\n
- 3.2 Litre bag<\/li>\n
- 6 m cable<\/li>\n
- Adjustable power<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Need to buy replacement bags<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\nAvailable at Ebay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nMy frugal brain doesn’t particularly like bagged vacuums, having to buy a top-up so you can keep vacuuming is just a pain.<\/p>\n
But.<\/p>\n
I can’t deny it is very hygienic, all the dust is stored in a bag and in the case of this Hoover, it’s a self-sealing bag that ensures there are no dust clouds when emptying it.<\/p>\n
And if you are cleaning up after a pet but can’t afford a more luxury vacuum then this Hoover is a great choice. Plenty of suction power and you’ve got a crevice tool, furniture tool and a pet hair tool to deep clean into every single nook and cranny of your house.<\/p>\n
It’s also quiet for a vacuum cleaner which is great for a house with pets in it, it’s 66bd which is quieter than a dishwasher which typically runs at 70db. But louder than normal speech which is about 60db. So it still sounds like a vacuum but it doesn’t sound like a jet is taking off in your living room.<\/p>\n
Overall: <\/strong>A great vacuum for the clean conscious with its easy empty and minimal mess bag system.<\/p>\n5. Best Cheap – VYTRONIX CYL01 Powerful Compact Cyclonic Bagless Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"](\"https:\/\/appliancehunter.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/VYTRONIX-CYL01-Powerful-Compact-Cyclonic-Bagless-Cylinder-Vacuum-Cleaner.jpg\")
<\/div>\n\nBrand: <\/strong>Vytronix<\/p>\nType: <\/strong>Bagless cylinder<\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- \u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b4-stage HEPA filtration system<\/li>\n
- Lightweight at 4.3 kg<\/li>\n
- 1-year guarantee<\/li>\n
- 2-litre Capacity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- No adjustable suction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\nAvailable at Ebay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThis is a fantastic vacuum cleaner considering the low price, it’s got plenty of suction power to pick up all the dust off the ground. More importantly, it’s got a 4 stage filtration system to ensure that absolutely no allergens are expelled out the other end.<\/p>\n
It’s got all the attachments you need to get into every corner and in and around your sofa cushions for a deeper clean.<\/p>\n
Of course, it’s not as good as the more expensive vacuums on this list but for the price, it’s not bad at all.<\/p>\n
The way the nozzle fits in can lead it to topple over if you’re not paying attention as you’re dragging it along but this isn’t uncommon for this style of vacuum cleaner.<\/p>\n
Overall<\/strong>: Considering the low price this gets you a surprisingly good clean.<\/p>\nWhat is a HEPA Filter?<\/strong><\/h2>\nHEPA, which stands for High-Efficiency Particulate Air, is an air purifier filter which traps 99.97% of particulates that are over .3 microns.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s break that down further. What is a micron?<\/p>\n
A micron is a particle that is one millionth of a meter. So, that can range a bit in size. Some microns are even big enough to be detected by the human eye. Still very small though.<\/p>\n
As a frame of reference, a spore is 3-40 microns. Bacteria is .3 to 60 microns, mould is 3-12 microns and a dust mite is 10 microns.<\/p>\n
Out of those examples, then a HEPA filter will trap all of them including bacteria. That keeps your air very pure. Any particle smaller than .3 microns may pass through the filter, but in general, even those smaller ones are effectively trapped.<\/p>\n
A HEPA filter must be tested and the minimum accepted range is the previously mentioned 99.97% of microns trapped.<\/p>\n
The way a HEPA filter works is by a series of mesh layers that not only trap the larger particles from getting through but also by the collision of smaller particles against larger ones. Some HEPA filters are washable, and some need to be replaced once they are no longer effective.<\/p>\n
Not all HEPA filters are equal, however. Some are simple and use tried and true methods to clear the air, and others are enhanced to trap a variety of particulates.<\/p>\n
What Are the Different Types of HEPA Filters?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are different types of HEPA filters. Which kind you need will be determined by what problem you need to solve.<\/p>\n
If you just want the dust mites out of the air when you vacuum then a simple HEPA will do the trick. If you need odours from pets or cigarette smoke removed, then a simple one may not be enough.<\/p>\n
Some other types of HEPA filters:<\/p>\n
Activated Carbon<\/strong><\/h3>\nThere is a layer of activated carbon in the filter that doesn\u2019t just trap particles, it reacts with them chemically.<\/p>\n
This is very effective at removing odours and chemicals from the air.<\/p>\n
Ionic<\/strong><\/h3>\nThis type of HEPA filter charges negative ions that attract particles with positive ions. They then bond together and are too heavy to pass through the mesh of the filter.<\/p>\n
This helps with eliminating pollutants from the air as well as odours.<\/p>\n
UV Air Purifiers<\/strong><\/h3>\nBy using electromagnetic radiation against the dust, it kills moulds, viruses, bacteria and yeast. It doesn\u2019t filter out any dust particles, it just sort of cleans the dust before it gets filtered out. Even using a HEPA with UV, it\u2019s important to note the rating to see if it will filter out enough microns for your allergy needs.<\/p>\n
If you are an allergy sufferer then having a vacuum that leaves the air cleaner after using it is extremely important. A vacuum without proper filtration could make your allergies worse.<\/p>\n
Must-Have Features of a Vacuum for Allergies<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhen looking into a vacuum for allergy sufferers, it\u2019s important to take note of a few features.<\/p>\n
Here are a few items you should look for when determining if the vacuum you are considering will indeed help out with your allergies.<\/p>\n
Standard of Filtration<\/strong><\/h3>\nYour basic HEPA filter will be rated to filter 99.97% of particles over .3 microns. That is probably enough for most allergy sufferers. However, people who have certain allergies may need something stronger than that.<\/p>\n
There are HEPA filters on vacuums that remove 99.99% of particles up to .3 microns, and even some that are rated for even smaller particles, around .2 microns.<\/p>\n
Sealed System<\/strong><\/h3>\nMany good vacuums these days come very tightly sealed. If you are an allergy sufferer, you need to make sure that the vacuum with a HEPA filter is among them. If the gaskets leak air then the HEPA filter is useless.<\/p>\n
Dust laden air will be making its way back into your home before it gets filtered. Leaky systems are also not very good at suction and you wouldn\u2019t want that even without allergy issues.<\/p>\n
Bagged vs Bagless<\/strong><\/h3>\nBagless vacuums are very popular since they are generally more efficient and keep their suction better than bagged vacuums. However, emptying a dusty canister means having a lot of the dust you are trying to avoid coming in very close contact with you.<\/p>\n
Bagged vacuums, therefore, may be a better option if you have bad allergies. Many bagged vacuums have an automatic seal system that closes as soon as you detach it. Simply drop the bag in the bin and avoid any dust altogether.<\/p>\n
There are even some models that have the bag itself act as a filter.<\/p>\n
Attachments<\/strong><\/h3>\nAllergens are not only trapped in your carpets but on just about any surface. To make sure your entire house is allergen-free after vacuuming you may need some specialized attachments. A good upholstery brush, for example. If you have pets, a turbo brush to clean your sofa and pet beds is essential.<\/p>\n
Certificates<\/strong><\/h3>\nThere are organizations like the British Allergy Foundation that will give their stamp of approval for vacuums that have special features for people with allergies. This can give some peace of mind that the product has been tested with you in mind.<\/p>\n

The most important feature of this vacuum is that it’s got a HEPA filter and a complete seal to ensure 99.9% of allergens are picked up and stored in the vacuum, they’re not going to escape back out the exhaust.<\/p>\n
You’ll just want to empty it straight into your outside bin.<\/p>\n
It’s also got LED lights across the front at floor level so you can see under sofas and tables but also clearly see if there is anything on the floor.<\/p>\n
This is also a lift-away model so the body lifts off to act as a handheld vacuum for cleaning stairs and getting into your sofa. The HEPA filtration system is still at work here so you can get every single piece of dust and allergens up and out of your house.<\/p>\n
It’s reasonably lightweight, the perfect balance of effectiveness and cost, you can’t go wrong.<\/p>\n

Not all HEPA filters are equal, however. Some are simple and use tried and true methods to clear the air, and others are enhanced to trap a variety of particulates.<\/p>\n
What Are the Different Types of HEPA Filters?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere are different types of HEPA filters. Which kind you need will be determined by what problem you need to solve.<\/p>\n
If you just want the dust mites out of the air when you vacuum then a simple HEPA will do the trick. If you need odours from pets or cigarette smoke removed, then a simple one may not be enough.<\/p>\n
Some other types of HEPA filters:<\/p>\n
Activated Carbon<\/strong><\/h3>\nThere is a layer of activated carbon in the filter that doesn\u2019t just trap particles, it reacts with them chemically.<\/p>\n
This is very effective at removing odours and chemicals from the air.<\/p>\n
Ionic<\/strong><\/h3>\nThis type of HEPA filter charges negative ions that attract particles with positive ions. They then bond together and are too heavy to pass through the mesh of the filter.<\/p>\n
This helps with eliminating pollutants from the air as well as odours.<\/p>\n
UV Air Purifiers<\/strong><\/h3>\nBy using electromagnetic radiation against the dust, it kills moulds, viruses, bacteria and yeast. It doesn\u2019t filter out any dust particles, it just sort of cleans the dust before it gets filtered out. Even using a HEPA with UV, it\u2019s important to note the rating to see if it will filter out enough microns for your allergy needs.<\/p>\n
If you are an allergy sufferer then having a vacuum that leaves the air cleaner after using it is extremely important. A vacuum without proper filtration could make your allergies worse.<\/p>\n
Must-Have Features of a Vacuum for Allergies<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhen looking into a vacuum for allergy sufferers, it\u2019s important to take note of a few features.<\/p>\n
Here are a few items you should look for when determining if the vacuum you are considering will indeed help out with your allergies.<\/p>\n
Standard of Filtration<\/strong><\/h3>\nYour basic HEPA filter will be rated to filter 99.97% of particles over .3 microns. That is probably enough for most allergy sufferers. However, people who have certain allergies may need something stronger than that.<\/p>\n
There are HEPA filters on vacuums that remove 99.99% of particles up to .3 microns, and even some that are rated for even smaller particles, around .2 microns.<\/p>\n
Sealed System<\/strong><\/h3>\nMany good vacuums these days come very tightly sealed. If you are an allergy sufferer, you need to make sure that the vacuum with a HEPA filter is among them. If the gaskets leak air then the HEPA filter is useless.<\/p>\n
Dust laden air will be making its way back into your home before it gets filtered. Leaky systems are also not very good at suction and you wouldn\u2019t want that even without allergy issues.<\/p>\n
Bagged vs Bagless<\/strong><\/h3>\nBagless vacuums are very popular since they are generally more efficient and keep their suction better than bagged vacuums. However, emptying a dusty canister means having a lot of the dust you are trying to avoid coming in very close contact with you.<\/p>\n
Bagged vacuums, therefore, may be a better option if you have bad allergies. Many bagged vacuums have an automatic seal system that closes as soon as you detach it. Simply drop the bag in the bin and avoid any dust altogether.<\/p>\n
There are even some models that have the bag itself act as a filter.<\/p>\n
Attachments<\/strong><\/h3>\nAllergens are not only trapped in your carpets but on just about any surface. To make sure your entire house is allergen-free after vacuuming you may need some specialized attachments. A good upholstery brush, for example. If you have pets, a turbo brush to clean your sofa and pet beds is essential.<\/p>\n
Certificates<\/strong><\/h3>\nThere are organizations like the British Allergy Foundation that will give their stamp of approval for vacuums that have special features for people with allergies. This can give some peace of mind that the product has been tested with you in mind.<\/p>\n
Other HEPA Vacuum Cleaners For Allergies Reviewed<\/strong><\/h2>\nShark Lift-Away Upright Vacuum Cleaner [NV602UKT]<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\nBrand: <\/strong>Shark<\/p>\nType: <\/strong>Upright<\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Lift away the body for easy stair cleaning<\/li>\n
- Led lights to check for a thorough clean<\/li>\n
- 5-year warranty<\/li>\n
- Good on the carpet and hard floor<\/li>\n
- Complete Seal traps 99.9% of dust and allergens<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/p>\n
\n- Pet attachments are sold separately<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThis was the old top choice, still a great vacuum, and still got the HEPA filter but now there’s an even better model available for not a lot more so I swapped it out when I updated in 2022<\/p>\n
The most important feature of this vacuum is that it’s got a HEPA filter and a complete seal to ensure 99.9% of allergens are picked up and stored in the vacuum, they’re not going to escape back out the exhaust.<\/p>\n
You’ll just want to empty it straight into your outside bin.<\/p>\n
It’s also got LED lights across the front at floor level so you can see under sofas and tables but also clearly see if there is anything on the floor.<\/p>\n
This is also a lift-away model so the body lifts off to act as a handheld vacuum for cleaning stairs and getting into your sofa. The HEPA filtration system is still at work here so you can get every single piece of dust and allergens up and out of your house.<\/p>\n
It’s reasonably lightweight, the perfect balance of effectiveness and cost, you can’t go wrong.<\/p>\n
Energise Vibe Vacuum<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\nBrand: Vax<\/p>\n
Type: Cylinder<\/p>\n
Pros:<\/p>\n
\n- HEPA Filter<\/li>\n
- Great price<\/li>\n
- Lightweight at 4.3kg<\/li>\n
- 2.2-litre cylinder<\/li>\n
- A-rated dust re-emission<\/li>\n
- Dusting brush, crevice tool and upholstery brush included<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/p>\n
\n- Quite Loud<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nRunner up to the Amazon Baisc is this Vax cheap HEPA vacuum. It is still a great vacuum even considering its very low price tag.<\/p>\n
It sports a powerful 950-watt motor that provides a good amount of suction. The attachments can help you get a total home cleanup. With a crevice tool, upholstery brush and dusting brush, you can reach every nook and cranny thanks to the telescopic wand and long hose.<\/p>\n
The HEPA filter can trap particles and also, the body is sealed well. Earning it an A rating for dust re-emissions. Of course, as is the case with so many of these bagless vacuums, the canister will cause a small dust cloud when you empty it.<\/p>\n
I can only recommend bagless cylinder vacuums for allergy sufferers who don\u2019t have severe allergies.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s very lightweight and easy to move around. The small profile enables easy storage and cleaning the stairs.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\nBrand: <\/strong>Shark<\/p>\n Type: <\/strong>Upright<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n Available at Ebay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n I love Shark vacuums, they come up time and time again across all my articles because they offer superb suction and great value for money. The latest Dyson is probably “better” but the prices are getting out of control so in my mind they aren’t as worth the money.<\/p>\n This NZ850 was a great step up over the NZ800 because they managed to somehow increase the suction by 25%! That is some serious suction power and will get in and clean even deep piles and old carpets. First run around you’re going to be slightly horrified at how much dirt gets picked up.<\/p>\n There is an allergy seal around the tank that traps in 99.9% of dust and allergens, which combined with the serious suction leaves you with a ridiculously clean house. The body also lifts out so that you can vacuum any stairs or high corners with the hose for a full house clean.<\/p>\n Its main downside is that all that power and suction comes at a cost, and that’s the weight of the whole thing, it is on the heavier side as far as vacuums go so it takes a bit of work to get around the house. But you can lower the suction for easier movement and the deep clean is absolutely worth it.<\/p>\n If you care about cleanliness and keeping your house clean and fresh then you won’t do better than with the Shark NV850UK. Oh, and did I mention the anti-hair wrap that stops long hair from getting tangled around the brush head? Genius.<\/p>\n Brand: <\/strong>Dyson<\/p>\n Type: <\/strong>Stick vacuum cleaner<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n This is easily the best vacuum cleaner if you’re worried about allergies or you’re looking to ease asthma, the 40-minute run time is plenty to get around your whole house and it’s light enough for easy daily cleaning.<\/p>\n It’s got a motorised brush head for maximum pick up but it can also be used as a handheld vacuum that also has a smaller motorised brush to get pet hair up our furniture but also every other little speck of dust.<\/p>\n The filter<\/a> is the best you can get, you can trust Dyson to provide you with the best there is. The only reason this isn’t my top choice is it’s more expensive, but I can assure you it’s my favourite vacuum cleaner and worth every penny.<\/p>\n It’s got all the accessories you need for a deep clean of your house and a 1.8 m long cord for charging. But with 40 minutes run time you don’t ever need to use it corded.<\/p>\n It also charges with a charging station that you mount on the wall for easy storage.<\/p>\n The best vacuum cleaner for allergies, or if you’ve got someone coming over who has allergies.<\/p>\n Brand: <\/strong>Miele<\/p>\n Type: <\/strong>Bagless canister<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n This is an excellent choice if you’re looking to get a deep clean because this Miele uses Vortex technology to separate the big dirt you pick up before the fine dust particles are fed through a separate HEPA filter. The airflow speeds actually exceed 100 km\/h!<\/p>\n \u200bThis leaves you with a deeper clean but does not mean you have to periodically clean out the filter.<\/p>\n Good on hardwood floors and carpets thanks to the adjustable power settings, and it’s got a 2-year guarantee but has been tested for the equivalent of 20 years of use!<\/p>\n It might seem more expensive than other canister vacuums but you can’t argue with 20 years worth of quality.<\/p>\n Emptying is a breeze because you just open the container from the bottom once it’s in the bin and all the dust falls out the bottom, and because all the fine dust is collected in the filter it doesn’t cause a big cloud when you empty it.<\/p>\n Overall: <\/strong>A super choice of allergy vacuum, that picks up pet dander, pet hair, allergens from the air, and everything else.<\/p>\n Brand: Hoover<\/strong><\/p>\n Type: <\/strong>Bagged canister<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n Available at Ebay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n My frugal brain doesn’t particularly like bagged vacuums, having to buy a top-up so you can keep vacuuming is just a pain.<\/p>\n But.<\/p>\n I can’t deny it is very hygienic, all the dust is stored in a bag and in the case of this Hoover, it’s a self-sealing bag that ensures there are no dust clouds when emptying it.<\/p>\n And if you are cleaning up after a pet but can’t afford a more luxury vacuum then this Hoover is a great choice. Plenty of suction power and you’ve got a crevice tool, furniture tool and a pet hair tool to deep clean into every single nook and cranny of your house.<\/p>\n It’s also quiet for a vacuum cleaner which is great for a house with pets in it, it’s 66bd which is quieter than a dishwasher which typically runs at 70db. But louder than normal speech which is about 60db. So it still sounds like a vacuum but it doesn’t sound like a jet is taking off in your living room.<\/p>\n Overall: <\/strong>A great vacuum for the clean conscious with its easy empty and minimal mess bag system.<\/p>\n Brand: <\/strong>Vytronix<\/p>\n Type: <\/strong>Bagless cylinder<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n View Price at Amazon.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n Available at Ebay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n This is a fantastic vacuum cleaner considering the low price, it’s got plenty of suction power to pick up all the dust off the ground. More importantly, it’s got a 4 stage filtration system to ensure that absolutely no allergens are expelled out the other end.<\/p>\n It’s got all the attachments you need to get into every corner and in and around your sofa cushions for a deeper clean.<\/p>\n Of course, it’s not as good as the more expensive vacuums on this list but for the price, it’s not bad at all.<\/p>\n The way the nozzle fits in can lead it to topple over if you’re not paying attention as you’re dragging it along but this isn’t uncommon for this style of vacuum cleaner.<\/p>\n Overall<\/strong>: Considering the low price this gets you a surprisingly good clean.<\/p>\n HEPA, which stands for High-Efficiency Particulate Air, is an air purifier filter which traps 99.97% of particulates that are over .3 microns.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s break that down further. What is a micron?<\/p>\n A micron is a particle that is one millionth of a meter. So, that can range a bit in size. Some microns are even big enough to be detected by the human eye. Still very small though.<\/p>\n As a frame of reference, a spore is 3-40 microns. Bacteria is .3 to 60 microns, mould is 3-12 microns and a dust mite is 10 microns.<\/p>\n Out of those examples, then a HEPA filter will trap all of them including bacteria. That keeps your air very pure. Any particle smaller than .3 microns may pass through the filter, but in general, even those smaller ones are effectively trapped.<\/p>\n A HEPA filter must be tested and the minimum accepted range is the previously mentioned 99.97% of microns trapped.<\/p>\n The way a HEPA filter works is by a series of mesh layers that not only trap the larger particles from getting through but also by the collision of smaller particles against larger ones.
