Good Vacuum Cleaner for under $250?

My friend broke my $400 Electrolux vacuum and wants to purchase me a new one but only wants to spend $250 or less. What’s the best vacuum or the most powerful for this price range . Preferably a stick vacuum.

  • cordless stick ? dyson v6 wait for sales

    corded barrel = miele c3 wait for sales

    • How much better is the Miele C3 than the Dyson V6? I'm also in the market for a $250 hoover.

      • a lot

        but you'll use the v6 more often than corded miele because you're lazy

        • You're probably right, bending down to plug stuff in can be a bit of a chore. So is the V6 good enough to clean a house? Or will I just think it's cleaning it, until one day I get a Miele C3 and it does the job properly picking up a tonne of dust that the V6 missed?

        • @AustriaBargain:

          how many rooms

          carpet or hardfloor

          if carpet , low piles or shaggy

          any rugs ?

        • Four low pile carpeted bedrooms, the rest of the house is slate flooring with a few large rugs in the living room, all low pile. Cat and dog but neither shed much.

        • @AustriaBargain:

          i think v6 will struggles & won't cut it for you

          you only got 20mins from full charge without using the boost mode for carpet

        • @AustriaBargain:

          As @phunkydude has said, v6 prob won't cut it. A stick vac should never be used to replace a standard vacuum.

          Any asthma, allergies or hay fever?

      • Or instead put it side by side with a Hoover smart. $199. The suction on the smart kills the c3. Plus bags for the smart are 16.95 for 5. Bags for the miele are 24.95.

        Parts for the miele are also expensive. Also depends on which c3 you get, they don't all come with a hepa filter, just a cloth filters be careful and do your research

  • Does anyone have a recommendation for a good cheap stick vaccuum. I'm just looking to vacuum places like the kitches, etc where you get small amounts. I've got a good couple of vacuums for whole house, just looking for spot cleaning.

    Thanks

      This is the best vacuum cleaner I have ever owned for the price usually $29

      Basically is a mini Dyson V6 afaik..

      Would honestly be surprised if it competes similary to a Dyson V6 but have never compared or tried.

      We need a YouTube channel for these kind of things. preferably a new Australian one.

      But yeah I bought two in case one breaks down..

      Maintenance is very simple and easy.

      Only gripe is it is not cordless but it does its job for me at least.

      If you are unsure of a vacuum just buy this one until you research your ideal vacuum but honestly I am hesitant to purchase a Dyson V6 atm until I can get confirmation that it is 10 times better because at $300+ it better be.

  • A rechargeable vacuum is a temporary purchase, after 4 years you will need a new battery or vacuum. A corded vac has the potential to last 10 years plus.

  • Miele, just great and not a total rip off like Dyson!.

  • Well my DYSON just blew up after 3 years, of very limited use.

    So i am on the search.
