Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sale is the perfect time to get great deals on home products. The Prime Day vacuum deals follow what we saw earlier this summer during July Prime Day, but these discounts are only good through October 9 or while supplies last, so act soon.
One deal we're eyeing is 40% off the Shark Stratos Cordless Vacuum, the top pick in our best vacuum guide. This price matches the all-time low for this powerful stick vacuum. The Black+Decker Dustbuster Cordless Handheld Vacuum, our best handheld vacuum pick, is marked down to $35, an impressive price for such a powerful and convenient vac.
Below is a rundown of the best vacuum deals available. Check out our main Prime Day deals hub for sales in other categories.
The best cordless vacuums balance strong suction, long battery runtime, and convenience. Dyson is the top name in cordless stick vacuums, and several of its models are on sale, including 36% off the Dyson V8 Plus.
You can automate floor cleaning with the best robot vacuums. We like the iRobot Roomba j9+ because it has an innovative app, long battery runtime, and a self-emptying dustbin. Right now, it's $250 off.
Upright vacuums are your classic, workhorse vacuums. They plug into the wall, feature powerful suction, and are generally more affordable than cordless and robot vacuums. The Bissell CleanView Rewind Upright Vacuum, a version of our favorite Bissell, is over 30% off.
The best handheld vacuums are lightweight and convenient to use for small messes and hard-to-reach places. Black+Decker is the top name in the handheld space, and many of their units are on sale, like $26 off the Black+Decker 20V Max Flex.
If you want to vacuum and mop simultaneously, you need one of the best wet-dry vacs. The Eureka NEW400 is our favorite budget model. It's $60 off for Prime Day.
The best vacuum will depend on your needs. Here are some of the most popular vacuum types and what they're best for.
Upright vacuums: This is what people typically think of when they think of a vacuum. The motor, head, and dustbin are one unit. It plugs into the wall; you tilt the body back and run the head across the floor. It's great for whole-house cleaning.
Cordless stick vacuums: These have grown in popularity in recent years because of their convenience. They run on a battery, tend to have good suction, and can get into hard-to-reach places. However, they have small dustbins and can be pricey.
Canister vacuum: This vacuum has a long hose that connects the motor and dustbin to the head and handle. While they are quite powerful, they can be cumbersome and are usually expensive.
Robot vacuum: You schedule the little robot, and it cleans your floor automatically. They're great for light daily cleaning but lack the suction for deep cleaning. Plus, they're expensive.
Handheld vacuum: Handheld vacuums are ideal for quickly cleaning up small messes in tight spaces. They're affordable but not ideal for whole-house cleaning.
Wet-dry vacuum: Vacuum and wash your hard floors simultaneously with a wet-dry vacuum.
