Cylinder Vacuums

The greatest cleaning power is provided by 'no loss of suction' (NLOS) technology, which uses multi-cyclonic action to prevent the filter from clogging, keeping the suction power at its maximum. The new Dyson Cinetic models feature cyclone technology that mean no maintenance of the filter is required.

New EU energy legislation introduced on all new corded vacuums from September 1st 2014 rates each vacuum on it's performance at picking up dirt from both carpets and hard floors. A rating from A to G is given and the higher the letter, the better the performance. A low rating doesn't mean the vacuum performs poorly, in fact it could still perform better than your current vacuum!

Most cylinder vacuums range in weight from 4.3 kg to 8 kg, which makes them easier to move around your home than upright vacuums. Their compact size is an advantage when moving them, and some include handles so you can easily carry them to where they are needed, so you can move them from downstairs to upstairs without struggling.

Many have features such as soft wheels that do not damage floors, and as the suction head is away from the main unit, it is easier to clean awkward spaces such as under furniture with legs. Longer hoses can make it easier to clean large rooms, and are useful when you are cleaning stairs, letting you leave the main unit at the bottom of the stairs.

To allow you to clean throughout your home, many upright vacuum cleaners include a variety of tools that are designed for specific jobs. Many cylinders include a crevice tool that allows cleaning of hard to reach spaces such as behind and between furniture and kitchen appliances. Upholstery tools can be used to vacuum furniture such as seats and sofas, whilst dusting brushes allow delicate cleaning of surfaces using soft bristles.
