Vacuum cleaners are domestic or industrial machines that are used for cleaning processes especially in interiors instead of broom. It sucks dirt into a filter bag or a cyclonic bin with the aid of suction or air pressure created by an electric motor driving a fan.
There are different types of vacuum cleaners considering their uses and places of usage. Examples of some of the best vacuum cleaners include the All Great Vacuums, Dyson Vacuums, Robot Vacuums, and so on.
Let’s expatiate a bit on the types of vacuum cleaners we have and the best way to make use of them.
According to KOHL’S, the types of vacuum cleaners we have are as mentioned below:
Canister vacuums
This is the commonest type of vacuums and they are generally used to clean hard surfaces and small carpeted areas. These vacuums come with a suction hose with great manoeuvrability capacity which makes it comfortable to use on furniture and other domestic surfaces.
Carpet Cleaners
As the name implies, these are to be used only on carpets and not for other surfaces. The machine is capable of spraying the carpet with soapy water and then with the aid of its vacuum suck the water alongside other dirt to give you a sparkling floor mat. They are also known as “deep cleaners” or carpet extractors”.
Upright vacuums
These are best used on extensive carpeted areas. These machines make use of a motor-driven beater to hit the carpet to loosen dirt in them before sucking them in through their suction. They can be adjusted to fit your height and may or may not come with filter bags.
Hand-held vacuums
Another ubiquitous vacuum cleaners that are mostly used because of their portability since it is light-weight and small compared to another type of vacuum cleaners. These machines are mostly cordless and powered by batteries so, you need not worry much about electricity. They are best used to clean up small areas and for urgent cleanup.
Sweeper vacuums
This is way higher than hand-held vacuums and way lower than the upright vacuum. They are also light-weighted and mostly battery powered like the hand-held vacuum as well as taking along the length of an upright vacuum cleaner. They usually have a dirt cup for the collection of dirt instead of a filter bag found in other vacuums. They are best used in places like kitchens and bathrooms.
Robotic vacuums
These are the latest type of vacuums which do not require the interference of human except during the set-up. All you need do is to set up the boundary, speed of the motor, and watch the vacuum does the work itself. However, you should know these vacuums might not be efficient like the human-controlled ones but they surely relieve one of stress and not too bad.
So, those are the various types of vacuum cleaners we have and some others might also exist which is why you need to also continue making researches before purchasing any item to ensure you buy only the best ones.
