8 Best Cordless Vacuum Cleaners for 2024

“I’m casting my vote for the Dyson V8 Plus. I use the crevice tool and mini soft dusting brush all the time! It’s versatile enough to handle a home with pets and kids and the pantheon of messes that entails, backed by solid power that sucks up every mystery item reliably. It also has a design aesthetic that’s a cut above the usual.”

“I needed a handheld vacuum that’s powerful (my adorable dog sheds an insane amount) but also quiet (said adorable dog HATES traditional vacuum sounds). This Bissell has been a game changer. I’m able to use it on a daily basis, and it does a great job of keeping the pet hair at bay. It’s also extremely lightweight, which makes cleaning time easy for me, too!”

—Erica, Sr. Director of Social Media

“Hyperbolic hot take: The right vacuum will make your life better. When something makes cleanup easier, faster, and more thorough with less effort, it’s a worthwhile investment. This Dyson V16 vacuum does it all, and it even has a de-tangling cleaner head. I’ve never had to cut hair out of it, and coming from someone with long curly hair and a cat with perpetual zoomies, that’s saying a lot.”
