The most important component of any vacuum cleaner is the motor - this is what rotates the fan that creates the suction power of the vacuum. The more suction power a vacuum cleaner has, the deeper the clean.

This is especially important for cleaning carpeted areas, or homes with pets where hair and other debris can get deeply lodged in floors.

Samsung vacuum cleaners feature motors with incredible suction power, like the HexaJet Motor™ which can generate up to 210W of suction, or the Digital Inverter Motor, which has an incredible up to 280W of suction power.

When you vacuum, you agitate the debris in your floors and send small particles of dust into the air - high quality vacuums feature filtering systems designed to help prevent this fine dust from escaping, leading to a deeper clean.

Removing tiny particles is great for all homes, but is especially important for those who suffer from allergies, asthma, or other conditions that are made worse by airborne micro dust.-Filtering systems can also help limit odours when vacuuming, and can help deal with pet hair.

Many Samsung vacuum cleaners include powerful 5 Layered Filtration Systems, like the Jet 95 Complete Stick Vacuum Cleaner. These models use multi-layer filters and Jet Cyclone technology to catch up to 99.999%¹ of micro dust particles, including 0.3~10µm² sized particles and allergens*.

Cordless vacuums offer unmatched mobility but depend on battery life. Choose models with at least 45 minutes of runtime to complete your cleaning with convenience.

Samsung's BESPOKE Jet™ AI Stick Vacuum delivers incredible leading power with up to 100 minutes of runtime and removable batteries for continuous cleaning.

Samsung’s stick vacuums have excellent battery capacity, with some models like the BESPOKE Jet™ AI Stick Vacuum Cleaner 280W capable of running for up to 100 minutes on a single charge - that’s more than enough battery life to clean your home top to bottom. Samsung batteries can also be removed, for easy charging and replacement.

Bulky, heavy vacuums might be capable of deeply cleaning your hard and carpeted floors, but lugging a large vacuum unit around your home can be a frustrating process. Plus, if you have mobility issues, large and bulky vacuums can make cleaning much harder than it needs to be.

Modern lightweight vacuum cleaners are capable of fitting into much smaller and harder to reach areas, like under low furniture and along stairs, which is especially important in multi-story homes with many rooms to clean.

Samsung’s range of stick vacuums are ideal for easy cleaning thanks to their lightweight design. The Jet 65 Pet Stick Vacuum, for example, is one of Samsung’s lightest vacuum cleaners, at only 2.3kg.

This cordless model is perfect for reaching high into corners, down under furniture, and everywhere in-between. It also comes with a sturdy 150W Digital Inverter Motor and 40 minute battery, so you don’t need to compromise on performance.

Stick vacuums are popular for a lot of reasons, but an important one is their cleaning versatility. Stick vacuums typically come equipped with a variety of interchangeable heads, meaning you can clean in a range of different ways to get the best results possible.

Some common attachments include different brush types and sizes, nozzles and hoses of various lengths, flexible hoses, and much more. Some vacuums may even include LED lights and other accessories to help elevate your cleaning experience.

Samsung stick can vacuums come with a wide array of attachments, including a range of brush heads like the Jet Dual Brush and Pet Tool. Some models also include the Combination and Crevice Tool, with a slim nozzle designed for corners and other smaller areas.

Wet/dry vacuums like the BESPOKE Jet™ Plus Elite even come with a Spray Spinning Sweeper attachment for microfibre mopping.

Nobody enjoys the sound of a noisy vacuum rolling through their home - but noise is still an unavoidable part of the vacuuming experience. That being said, some vacuum models are quieter than others.

If you live in a small home or apartment, or just want to reduce the noise of your vacuum cleaner as much as possible, you can check to see how loud in decibels a vacuum model is.

If you want a quiet vacuum, then a robot model is a great option. Samsung’s robot vacuums are quieter than other traditional models, with vacuums like the BESPOKE Jet Bot Combo™ AI having a noise level of only 74 dBA.

You can check the noise level of Samsung vacuums in the user manual.

Pets are a wonderful part of the family, but their hair can be a nuisance to keep at bay. It can accumulate all over your home, especially in carpets and hard to reach spots under furniture. Not only do you need to vacuum regularly to avoid unpleasant build up, but you’ll also need a vacuum with a powerful motor that has great reach.

Samsung has a great range of pet-friendly stick vacs, including the Jet 65 Pet Stick Vacuum and the BESPOKE Jet™ AI Stick Vacuum Cleaner 280W. These stick models both feature a specialised Pet Tool attachment, designed to easily pick up thin and tricky pet hair. Plus, both models are lightweight and perfect for quick spot cleaning, making it easier for you to get pet hair under control in moments.

If you or a loved one suffers from allergies or asthma, you will know how important it is to pick up and contain dust and other nasty particles in your home. Not only is it important to remove this debris in the first place, but you’ll also need a vacuum cleaner that can stop these particles from re-entering the air as you clean. Poorly designed vacuums may not have strong enough seals or filters to contain these particles, so It’s best to choose a model that complies with trusted allergy guidelines.

Some Samsung vacuums like the BESPOKE Jet™ Plus Elite Stick Vacuum feature a 5 Layered Filtration System to prevent microparticles from escaping the unit, and the convenient Clean Station™ to empty the bin for you to while reducing contact with allergens.

Carpets, wood, tiles, and concrete all need different cleaning methods to keep them looking great, so it’s no surprise that not all vacuum cleaners are designed to clean every type of flooring. If your home is hardwood throughout, then you’ll need a vacuum cleaner designed for hardwood floors - but there are many homes with multiple flooring types. If your home has lots of different surface types that need vacuuming, you’ll need a model designed to go anywhere with lots of versatile cleaning modes.

Samsung offers a range of vacuums with multiple smart cleaning attachments that make keeping your multi-surface home tidy a lot easier. The Jet 95 Complete Stick Vacuum Cleaner, for example, includes a range of head attachments, like the Jet Dual Brush Tool for picking up debris on hard floors and on carpets, as well as the Slim LED Brush Turbo Action Brush for dark spaces like under furniture.

For lots of families and individuals, it can be a struggle to find the time to keep on top of regular cleaning chores like vacuuming.

There are plenty of great quality vacuum cleaners priced between $300 and $1000. This is a wide price range, and with that comes a wide range of features and technology. If you need a vacuum with special cleaning modes, like for picking up pet hair or for helping with allergies, you should be able to find something high quality at this price.

Remove any obvious debris from the head or accessories of your vacuum each time you use it to avoid build up. For some models, it’s worth emptying the bin for each clean too.

If your vacuum has a bag, bin, or canister, it’s worth emptying regularly. Don’t allow your vacuum bin to fill completely, as this prevents your model from achieving the best suction power. You can empty this after every clean, and wipe it down regularly to catch any stray dust or hair.

Check your filters at least once a month, including brushing or wiping down any external filters on the outside of the model. Some filters can be washed under a tap or gently brushed to clean, while others may need replacing occasionally, so consult your user manual for more information.

Check your vacuum regularly for any blockages that can impact suction power. Some debris, like longer hairs, may need to be snipped out of hard to reach places with scissors, and you may need to use something like a broom handle to dislodge blockages from the hose.

Each vacuum is different, with different components requiring individual care, so follow any cleaning instructions set out in your model’s manual.

Some models are designed to be taken apart, so individual components can be cleaned more thoroughly.

For cordless models, protect the longevity of your battery by using high power modes sparingly, avoiding vacuuming in extreme heat, and alternating between batteries to prevent one from wearing out faster.

Avoid storing your vacuum somewhere damp or cramped, as this can attract mould. Also try to avoid dusty places, as this can cause build ups which hamper function.

If an attachment or component of your vacuum breaks, you may be able to replace that part without replacing the whole vacuum.

Ultimately, the best vacuum for you and your home is one that suits your floor types, budget, and lifestyle. With so many types to choose from, plus modern new add ons and features, you should pick a model that makes cleaning as simple and effective as possible for you.

It’s important to consider any factors that could have an impact on your choice, like allergies or pets.
