Changing a bag regularly improves suctionLook around your house and see what your vacuum cleaner needs are. Do you have carpets,, rugs, hard floors? What about awkward and heavy furniture? Are dogs or cats constantly in and out of your home? What about stairs, do you need a light weight vacuum cleaner or one that is more heavy duty?

There are a surprisingly large number of factors to consider that will determine which vacuum cleaner is best for you. Also, you shouldn't overlook running costs. Vacuum bags typically cost around £0.80 each and have a very short life in terms of vacuum efficiency - so perhaps a Bagless Vacuum Cleaner is a better option?

Secondly, particularly if you suffer from asmtha, you should look for HEPA filtered cleaners and again you can buy vacuums with lifetime HEPA filters that don't need replacing.

As per the new WEEE legislation, electronic goods have to be disposed of by specialist contractors. Many retailers offer a service to pick up large appliances and electrical items on a like for like basis,i.e. buy a new television and they will pick up your old one on delivery. The prices charged for this disposal service varies between shops.

The table below illustrates the disposal charges for the major high street retailers, and are an important consideration along with delivery charges:

Generally, the only condition for pick up for disposal of the appliance is that the appliance is disconnected, and in the case of fridges or freezers, also defrosted. In most instances, the pick up is arranged at the time of ordering the product and arranging the delivery time The main things to consider are:
  • Budget
  • User reviews
  • Reliability of brand & Best Buy (source Which?)
  • Suction efficiency - the more effective, the easier to use
  • Upright or cylinder cleaner - this depends on your needs and practicalities
  • Will it fit your cupboard or does it look good left in the lounge. LOL
