The Challenger…Canister Vacuums – Buying a Vacuum Cleaner Guide – Part 4

Only since a few years ago, upright vacuums were the recommended option for carpet, rugs and bare floors. Both upright and canister vacuums are now trying to bridge the gap. The upright vacuum is coming out with with small hoses and canister vacuums are geared up with mechanized brush accessories. Which one is better?

Where Upright Vacuums Excel

Getting an upright vacuum might be the best choice if your house has mainly surfaces of carpet or rugs, specifically thick ones. The turning brushes of the upright vacuum are much better at removing the dirt from thick rugs than canister vacuums.

Average Housing

For average housing, the cylinder vacuum has a clear advantage over the upright vacuum cleaner. Much more powerful, quiet, and less complicated to deal with, a cylinder vacuum cleans up faster and also with less annoyances.

Bare Floors?

If your home has mainly bare floors (ceramic tiles or wood), a mix of bare flooring as well as of carpet, or if you have a two-story residence, a canister vacuum would certainly be a better financial investment.

Ultimately, it is a matter of personal preference: some individuals are a lot more comfortable pushing an upright in front of them, others favor the ability to move a light weight wand.

    Advanced Carpet Care took care of smoke smell in our car! The smell was very strong and we never envisioned it could be removed, but Gary and his team completely removed the smell! Communication with Gary was excellent and he even followed up after to check in on our satisfaction! This level of service is a gem today!

    Gary & Tim were so kind, efficient, and thorough helping us clean our apartment carpets and linoleum! With 4 cats, it was long overdue. They were very understanding when we had trouble wrangling 1 cat to get her out of the way, and even offered to clean some areas I hadn't thought to include. They carefully moved furniture when needed and were great to chat with as well! Thank you very much for a job well done - will definitely use your services again! Highly recommend.

They do an exceptional job and are very cautious while doing their work to take care of and be cautious of the surroundings while doing so. Not just rush in and out and throw a bill at you. Highly recommended.
