If there’s one indisputable thing to say about kids, it’s that they’re always making a mess. So, having a quality vacuum on hand is essential as a parent. Good vacuums rarely come cheap, but now that Amazon Prime Day/Big Deals Days have arrived, it's the perfect time to save on one. But act fast—the sale ends tonight.
A Prime membership is required to access all the deals, but you can sign up for a free 1-month trial if you aren’t already a member. The trial comes with various perks and free shipping to boot! Here are our top Prime Day vacuum deals, from sensible budget picks to high-tech splurges.
Dyson makes some of the best vacuums on the market, but also some of the most expensive—now is the time to upgrade without breaking the bank. The lightweight Dyson V8 vacuum traps 99.99% of particles and dust as small as 0.3 microns with a HEPA filtration system. It converts to a handheld unit for stairs, upholstery and car cleaning.
With a 40-minute charge, this Dyson is best suited for quick cleanups or smaller spaces. The Dyson V8 comes with a detangling motor bar brush roll, a crevice tool (for hard-to-reach spaces), a hair screw tool (for removing pet hair from upholstery) and a dusting brush.
With a corded design, the Shark Rocket Deluxe Pro never runs out of juice. This lightweight stick vacuum comes with pet attachments, an extra-large dust cup (meaning less frequent emptying) and LED headlights, so you'll never miss a spot when cleaning. Plus, it converts to a handheld. This Shark vacuum is loaded with features at a fantastic price—it's nearly half off for Prime Day.
Pets are part of the family, but shedding, spilled food and other messes don't have to dominate your home. A cordless stick vacuum for quick cleanups—one that's not too pricey—may be up your alley. This Shark pet vacuum has LED headlights and converts to a handheld, with a crevice tool included. It runs for up to 40 minutes on a single charge.
If you prefer a classic workhorse upright vacuum, the Dyson Ball Animal 3 is one of the greats. With cyclone technology, the suction is strong enough to handle anything from dust on hardwood floors to crumbs stuck deep in carpets. It's easy to maneuver and great for larger homes. The Dyson Ball Animal 3 features three cleaning modes and whole-machine filtration, which keeps dust, dirt and other particles inside the machine. It comes with a detangling motor bar, stair and combination tools. Bear in mind that it weighs a relatively hefty 17.33 pounds.
Are allergies bothering you and the kids? Consider a vacuum designed for allergy sufferers, like this Shark Navigator Lift-Away. HEPA filtration traps dust and allergens, which are prevented from escaping the vacuum with a specialized seal. It’s not just a cleaning tool, it's a way to make your home healthier. With powerful suction and easy manoeuvrability, it certainly lives up to the hype. This Shark vacuum also includes crevice and wide upholstery tools.
If you're looking for a powerful upright vacuum that can tackle stubborn pet hair, go with the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus. Engineered for homes with cats and dogs, this 13.75-pound vacuum is user-friendly, with a tangle-free brush roll and an easy-to-empty dirt tank. It has headlights, so you can easily see fine pet hair and debris on your floors. Edge-to-edge suction makes it a solid choice for carpeted rooms, tile floors and other hard surfaces. This Bissell vacuum comes with three attachments, including two specialized pet ones.
The Roomba i3+ EVO is a quality mid-range robotic vacuum with decent features that don't cost a fortune. With smart mapping technology, you can set it to clean specific rooms whenever it suits you and your family's schedule. It's controllable via the iRobot app, or through Alexa or Google Assistant voice commands. A cliff sensor keeps it from falling off the stairs and a self-emptying bin can hold up to 60 days’ worth of dirt. This Roomba runs for 120 minutes before automatically sending itself back to the dock for charging.
If you're in the market for a more affordable robot vacuum, the Shark AV753 is a worthy choice. You can stop, start or schedule it to run via the Shark app or control it with your voice using Alexa or Google Assistant. It's suitable for multi-level homes, with cliff sensors to identify edges and stairs without accidentally falling. This Shark robot vacuum runs for 120 minutes on a single charge.
The BLACK+DECKER Dustbuster PIVOT VAC is truly unique. Unlike other handhelds, this one pivots up to 200 degrees, allowing you to access challenging spots like the tops of shelves or inside cabinets. Reviewers mention that this handheld's suction is impressive for its size.
The Dustbuster Furbuster AdvancedClean+ Pet is designed to access those tight, extra-dirty areas between sofa cushions and pillows where fur always ends up. It features a crevice tool, a motorized pet brush and a washable filter.
