I'm a professional cleaner and I hate stick vacs. I don't understand why people replace their regular vac for a stinking stick vac which is inadequate for a 2K+ sqft home. They're just a glorified, over priced electric broom that does a worst job than a standard broom.
99.9999% of the world aren't professional cleaners. In fact, most of us hate having to clean. Its a chore. I'd rather do a million other things than clean. But I clean because I have to. So convenience is king. The best vac in the world is the worse vac in the world if its unused and the worst vac is the best if its used. So my crappy cordless stick vac that picks up only 60% of a big heavy corded is 10x better because I'm able to quickly use it 10x more. I'll see my stick vac just sitting there and I'll grab it on my way to the kitchen to do a quick vac in the area - something I'd never do with my big corded vac in the closet. So while it doesn't pick up every piece of dirt, it picks up most of it on a near daily basis. Which is better than getting all of the dirt on a weekly basis.
WHY is this ignorant comment PINNED? Glad you're not MY "professional cleaner" if you are that dim that you can't IMAGINE why people prefer the stick vac. I bet you charge by the hour, too.
@@berimboplata this needs more thumbs up! I'm currently looking into stick vacs because i have a toddler and cleaning has become not only a chore but also a nightmare with my tot getting in the way and stumbling on the cord, we also live in a much smaller apartment right now and my regular vacuum is just a hassle to use...so having a tool that i can use to clean up fast and easy is of the highest priority for me..if i ever need to do a deep clean i still have my old trusty vac
@@Alicenwndrlnd Agreed! It's really all about the right tool for the situation at hand. To me, a stick vac is like a vespa scooter and a corded vac like a car. At first glance, a car seems superior in every way. Until you live in a dense city with high traffic and low parking. Then a little vespa that can weave between cars and park easily becomes the better solution.
I have 3 types of vacuum in my home. I robot roomba s9+ for everyday maintenance, miele s8 corded for serious cleaning and xiaomi mi handheld vacuum cleaner for spot cleaning and bed. For every job there's a right tool. No need to hate.
Most of your points make no sense. No one would even consider a stick vac if a traditional vac works on stairs or narrow places with obstacles/cables. They wouldn't have designed cordless underpowered stick vacs in the first place were regular vacs superior. The spinning brush on a stick vac that rotates in a single direction makes it work only when you are using it forward (clearly all stick vacs in your vid left no debris when used correctly)-just look at the shape of its bottom, of course pulling it backward wouldn't work. Lift it up before pulling it back solves all the problems. Tbh you are referring to them as hype simply because you are used to traditional vacs. You are 100% right about the bag though. It would be perfect if they have stick vacs with disposable bags.
I agree about Miele; I have had one with the same brush since 2007. It is a fantastic vacuum, but I need a cordless stick vacuum for quick cleaning sessions and stairs
When looking at a cordless vac, I am looking for a daily quick vac, much like sweeping with a broom. I would always have a corded vac for weekly cleaning. It’s just so nice not to fight with a cord. My personal peeves with vacuums are...noise, cord and in the case of a canister vac, getting it to follow you without crashing into walls or your heels.
OMG imagine they would create a smart canister vacuum that has the "brains" those small robot vacuums only it is programmed to follow your heels and stay away at a certain distance that would be genius!
This was eye-opening. I've used the same central vacuum for 30+ years and it has never let me down as far as cleaning is concerned. But dragging out the hose for quick cleans is not the most convenient so I have been researching stick vacuums thinking they would be a nice option for those quick cleaning times. Based on your review and some others I would not invest in a stick vacuum. As I listened to your comments it occurred to me that we really should not be using a rotating head to clean anything and that the use of those bars might be a holdover from these old-time motorless push sweepers or the beating of area rugs to clear out the dirt. So my search continues for a quick-use vacuum...maybe they still make those old push sweepers
No I think they are worth it. It's convenient and does more than good enough. I would rather use one of those every day instead of using a powerful vaccuum once a week. Vaccuums with cords are a pain in the ass to use.
Very nice analysis, exactly my thoughts.. I bought a shark stick vacuum thinking that it would be light weight.. as I'm skinny.. n to my surprise all the weight comes to my hand m wrist, it started hurting by using for 5 min.. I returned it..
I don’t agree with this at all. If you use the soft roller on hard floor it does great with hard floor. I have a tineco a11 master snd almost never have to pull out my corded vacuum it does so well
Thank you for noticing the obvious, which the industry ignores, that a spinning brush on a hard floor is a major problem. I got a brand new Hoover upright that said it was good for carpet and hard floors. I live in a sand box and I have dogs that bring that sand into my house. When I vacuum, my feet are painfully pelted with sand. I'm looking for a better vacuum now. Kudos. The stick cordless may still be my best fit though.
We still have ways to go on the cordless game. They still feel under power and and don't have the conveniences of something like a full size uprights. These are obviously ment for quick pick-ups. A cordless full size upright would be a great idea but there still needs more time to be comparable to a corded upright.
I’m curious to see you eventually review the Henry Quick and see how it stacks up to other cordless stick vacuums considering it finally solves the bagless problem other stick vacuums have since the Henry Quick has a bag!
Agree with absolutely everything you say! I reckon the answer is finally creating a plug in vacuum with a gentle cord retraction feature so the cord isn't so annoying! Also on medium quality cut pile carpet, would you recommend brushes or just suction?
Thanks for the 4-1-1. I'm honestly looking for a stick vaccum for the stairs....! What would you recommend? It's tough lugging a standard vaccum up/down the stairs
I am using a Cordless Stick Vaccum Cleaner of Gunter&Hauer. It appear a light warning "Roller snap". But there are nothing stucked in brush or filter. I checked all is clear but the light is still appear and the machine cannot work. How to fix it. Please advising and instructing.
What do you think of Tineco? They offer packages with dual powered heads, one with a standard powered brush for carpet and a large soft solder for hard floors. Another question. The standard black plastic hard floor tool used by more powerful vacuums, how do they work with large debris? It looks like they are very close to the floor and would just push around the debris as there is no way for it to get in. I have small children and that is a primary concern of mine. For that use case wouldn’t a large soft roller be superior?
While I do agree somewhat I mainly use a stick vacuum as a primary while I use a Miele c3 as a secondary’s or for a deeper clean for inspections n stuff but just have a cordless vacuum while not powerful is just hyper convenient, while I expect the c3 to actually clean well
It sounded like you didn’t fully clean out the ZeroG lines after you washed it.. before it hit the ground you could hear all the bits of dirt going through the lines and then nothing once you hit the carpet.. just an observation and food for thought
The sound of the video was super imposed I had a problem with the camera equipment what was really recorded was allowed screech that sounded something like a dial-up a modem.
Zero G on the carpet and there's nothing there to pick up? Some of these are a little weird. They're not picking up the same amount of stuff. But I appreciate all the info. Thanks!
what r your thoughts on a vacuum that also mops? example, the crosswave? oh and I really enjoyed this video very informative, lets just say I have no idea what im doing lol
I just remove the roller for our wood floors on the stick vacuum. The motor still turns but increases battery life I put some duct tape over the hole left where you remove the cap slide the roller.
excellent video for your pick up test id use a bagless or the hyla to show everything the stick vac missed atleast a bagged vacuum with out microfiber easier to show the collected debris
I totally agree with your view, and in fact I see canister vacuum as having much better maneuverability than a stick or an upright vacuum. I've actually been looking for, and asking manufacturers for a cordless canister vacuum on the market. It should not be a difficult change to utilize the current mini body design from a stick vacuum and transform that into a canister vacuum. This will significantly reduce the weight on the hand back to similar to the weight of holding the wand of a canister vacuum. A motorized floor brush is in fact needed for a vacuum to dig up dirt from carpet.
@@huitrecouture They're entitled to their opinion. Depends how you define manoeuvrability. The wand is more lightweight with a canister as you're not holding the weight of the motor - maybe that makes it more manoeuvrable for them.
@@skonda4 the only thing I don’t like is emptying the canister it doesn’t have a release button like on a dyson you have to open it from The bottom. But it’s a minor inconvenience. Everything else is beyond amazing! Worth every penny
What do you recommend for a lot of stairs? I have to vacuum 3 stories of stairs that are half carpeted and half hardwood. So far my V8 works great for this work since I can move up and down the stairs with jist one hand. How does a stick compare to the cordless Henry or other more powerful uprights?
If you have a lot of stairs the first thing I'd recommend is getting a central vacuum installed. Other than that canisters typically tend to be more powerful than uprights. But if you can get all your stairs done with the Dyson V8 and use a real vacuum for the rest of the house do it.
@@PerformanceReviews That sounds about right. I would love to get the cordless Lindhaus but it's outside my price range. Which one would you choose between the Oreck Cordless Elevate and the Riccar Cordless SupraLite? Thanks.
This has been helpful. Any recommendations for a cordless non-spinning brush vacuum for quick daily pickup of food pieces in kitchen area on tile and for kitty litter on laminate? We use a Beam central vac as primary for weekly deep cleaning. Had a cheap $20 Bissell corded that we used for this purpose but just died and want something better, and cordless.
Where's the shark duo clean? I have one and it does well on both hard and soft floors, as long as the head is clean. Haven't tried their anti hair wrap one yet, so can't comment on that one. However I'm a cleaner for my job and I love my shark. I have a karcher bagged that I use for cleaning out fireplaces as I have asthma, so makes ash disposal easier
There's no reason to waste time and space on the worst brand of machines out there. Most people know just how bad sharks are and know stay away from them. Feel free to watch my video on soft brush rollers are a bad idea from 2 years ago.
I think the only thing the Miele triflex mitigates is the weight and balance issue. Also it is made in Germany and of pretty high quality so it's got that going for it too. I'll be doing an in-home review on that soon enough
Seeing the Hoover Air brought back memories of the one I owned. I loved it since it was cheap at Costco compared to the other vacuums, I was living in a one bedroom apartment which did the job for what it was. I had a glass table and one day with strong winds and the window open, the standing lamp fell on the table and broke the glass table in pieces. I was surprised that the vacuum picked up the remaining tiny pieces that were left in the carpet.
I just gave away my last stick vacuum this morning actually. I will never understand the appeal of them. I guess for the uninformed who just don’t care (not saying that’s a bad thing) it boils down to convenience.
Hi there, thanks for the content! Never realized larger wheels are better to push vacuums, so obvious! Quick question, You said you reviewed the Miele triflex but it seemed you were a Miele representative yourself on that video? Could and would you give an opinion on the Miele vs the V11 or these others? Does the Miele spit all the crap out again as much as these? Which would you pick? Cheers!
Hello The video you speak of is one of many videos where I am at the VDTA in a monkey suit. Check out this playlist of VDTA 2020 videos. ua-cam.com/play/PLiENBcs2au1YK1rvnqQTmHUUi21s07HKc.html I'm in no way employed or associated with Miele. I am currently in the process of getting A Miele Triflex for home evaluation. Personally neither of those would be a pick for a cordless Vacuum. Henry cordless would still be my pick followed by the LG A9 feel free to check out my videos on those.
@@PerformanceReviews Thanks, just compared the miele to the V11 today in a store. A bit too bulky for me and a suuuuper small container which looks like it's going to be a pain to empty. Looks like dyson has the edge in filter and container design.
They're both ridiculously small containers. Only meant to do one room Or Quick pick up. I think you should look at some of the better options like I suggested. ua-cam.com/video/6Vd4DJDmJk8/v-deo.html
My brother in-law ordered a cordless stick vacuum off amazon and it does alright on low pile carpet. I wasn’t impressed, it sounds under powered, feels underpowered and even worse performs even less I have a 15 dollar bagged canister vacuum that has a hard floor tool that does a much better job. Not sure how we’ll it’s actually cleaning my rug though
Not to mention that li-ion batteries charge/recharge cycle has about 60% efficiency. Let's talk about saving energy and being green. If you're serious about the planet you avoid wireless things.
This video was useless. The title is misleading it makes you think that you will give a recommendation for the best stick vacuum after testing them but all you did was talk about how much you hate stick vacuums and never gave a recommendation. That was a big waste of my time. You need to rename this video why stick vacuums are not as good as normal vacuums.
These tests are awful, also the price range of the Henry and Zero G are 500 and 600 plus dollar vacs. It's not even a fair comparison because only the LG is even close in comparison to cost. And the LG is not the most powerful cordless vac, it's the Dyson V11 by a good margin in its high setting. Granted it can't last very long on that setting. There is a lot to be said about technique used with a vacuum and what to expect out of a vacuum. Something like the V11 I feel will be able to easily replace most people's corded vacuum easily for daily use and probably clean better. Of course it's very expensive as well but it's extremely convenient which is the whole point of the thing.
Quite an interesting opinion without a many facts. The v11 cordless makes 19" of working vacuum on a good day. What was said in the video is that LG A9 was the "most powerful stick vacuum tested to date" 35" of working vacuum and 110 sealed. Significantly more than the Dyson v11. But the Lindhaus machines blow all of those away in terms of performance. You complain about machines being 500- $600 which is the pricing of the v11 and many other stick vacuums. I'll link in the comment below to be v11 suction testing and why it can't not replace a full size machine.
The video has an 81% like ratio right now. Just so you know dislikes have not gone away. They're just hidden. There's often not a lot of likes on review videos and technical tutorials people come here for a specific piece of information and then leave.
you are one like the not believers to put a turbo on your car to create horsepower on a engine! so you like to drive a big V10 to have 400hp, i drive a 4 cilinder with turbo and of course i have the same power. only my consumption is much lower! result = is much easier to use, cheaper to use. and now i like to drive electric! way much HP!! Technology never stops!! And of course i like to drive the old Jaguar E type!! but only in free time!😉
Nope I prefer Turbo cars. Sick vacuums just don't work as your only vacuum. They can be convenient for quick pickups for some forks. Video showing turbo car . ua-cam.com/video/38kXlbceEc0/v-deo.html

@@PerformanceReviews Thanks, just compared the miele to the V11 today in a store. A bit too bulky for me and a suuuuper small container which looks like it's going to be a pain to empty. Looks like dyson has the edge in filter and container design.
They're both ridiculously small containers. Only meant to do one room Or Quick pick up. I think you should look at some of the better options like I suggested.

@@PerformanceReviews dyson v11 outsize has a 1 gallon container
My brother in-law ordered a cordless stick vacuum off amazon and it does alright on low pile carpet. I wasn’t impressed, it sounds under powered, feels underpowered and even worse performs even less I have a 15 dollar bagged canister vacuum that has a hard floor tool that does a much better job. Not sure how we’ll it’s actually cleaning my rug though
It's probably not most can't.
I assume the negative reviews were people angry at hearing the truth
DUDE YOU KNOW THE BRUSH ROLLER IS ONLY FOR CARPETS ON HARD WOOD FLOORS
You have just saved me from a big mistake !!
I am American and I prefer canister vacuums
Stick vacuums just so annoying I have two Dyson v7I got one for free and get the other one for cheap I’d rather have a canister vacuum or an upright
Not to mention that li-ion batteries charge/recharge cycle has about 60% efficiency. Let's talk about saving energy and being green. If you're serious about the planet you avoid wireless things.
There not good on shaggy carpets snd insude cars
Dyson filters NEVER regain their efficiency once washed once. Also Dysons are sooo fragile and flimsy.
what do u mean ?
This video was useless. The title is misleading it makes you think that you will give a recommendation for the best stick vacuum after testing them but all you did was talk about how much you hate stick vacuums and never gave a recommendation.
That was a big waste of my time.
You need to rename this video why stick vacuums are not as good as normal vacuums.
😂 you clicked off before I gave the suggestions.
But I think the video you're looking for is here.

My man I hope you’re feeling well, you’re out of breath just talking so please look after your health.

These tests are awful, also the price range of the Henry and Zero G are 500 and 600 plus dollar vacs. It's not even a fair comparison because only the LG is even close in comparison to cost.
And the LG is not the most powerful cordless vac, it's the Dyson V11 by a good margin in its high setting. Granted it can't last very long on that setting.
There is a lot to be said about technique used with a vacuum and what to expect out of a vacuum.
Something like the V11 I feel will be able to easily replace most people's corded vacuum easily for daily use and probably clean better. Of course it's very expensive as well but it's extremely convenient which is the whole point of the thing.
Quite an interesting opinion without a many facts. The v11 cordless makes 19" of working vacuum on a good day. What was said in the video is that LG A9 was the "most powerful stick vacuum tested to date" 35" of working vacuum and 110 sealed. Significantly more than the Dyson v11. But the Lindhaus machines blow all of those away in terms of performance. You complain about machines being 500- $600 which is the pricing of the v11 and many other stick vacuums. I'll link in the comment below to be v11 suction testing and why it can't not replace a full size machine.

500 likes with 40.000 views dude, it THIS does not say you're wrong nothing does. You'd be at 10.000 dislikes if we had dislikes
The video has an 81% like ratio right now.
Just so you know dislikes have not gone away. They're just hidden.
There's often not a lot of likes on review videos and technical tutorials people come here for a specific piece of information and then leave.
Dude you've just put me off buying a cordless stick vacuum. I think i'll just buy a regular miele vacuum!
It's a better buy for sure.
you are one like the not believers to put a turbo on your car to create horsepower on a engine!
so you like to drive a big V10 to have 400hp, i drive a 4 cilinder with turbo and of course i have the same power. only my consumption is much lower! result = is much easier to use, cheaper to use.
and now i like to drive electric! way much HP!!
Technology never stops!!
And of course i like to drive the old Jaguar E type!! but only in free time!😉
Nope I prefer Turbo cars. Sick vacuums just don't work as your only vacuum. They can be convenient for quick pickups for some forks.

I would dispose the dust into a grocery bag instead of directly into the bin.
Why not just have a vacuum that puts it in a bag for you 🤯 ?
@@PerformanceReviews So we don't have to buy the bags and create more waste on the environment.
There not good in cars
