A cordless vacuum cleaner can make cleaning your home, flat or vehicle much easier. However, high Pa values, long run-time claims and extensive accessories don't automatically mean a device is right for you. What really matters is whether the suction power, brush, filter, battery capacity and design actually suit your intended use.
Manufacturers often quote the maximum power of a cordless vacuum cleaner. This figure usually applies only in the strongest mode. The actual run time can be significantly shorter than the advertised maximum in Eco mode. If you regularly clean carpets, pet hair or coarse dirt, you should check:
A V-shaped or so-called "Anti-Tangle" brush can reduce hair wrapping. Nevertheless, you still need to check the brush roller, suction channel and filter regularly. Especially with long hair or pet hair, a blocked air path can reduce performance.
A HEPA filter vacuum cleaner can have several filter stages, seals and different test conditions depending on the system. Percentage figures should therefore always be considered in relation to the stated particle size and the measurement method. For allergy sufferers, a sealed filter system, a clean filter and as dust-free emptying as possible are also important. No medical or therapeutic effect can be derived from this.
Pa, AW or Watts describe different characteristics and cannot be directly compared. For everyday use, it's the combination of motor, airflow, brush design and head that counts. A vacuum cleaner for carpet and hard floors should have a motorised floor brush and ideally several power levels. A soft brush is useful for delicate hard floors, while carpets may need a more powerfully driven roller.
Run time depends on the suction level, floor head and accessories. Claims like "up to 60 minutes" often refer to a low setting and a non-motorised head. For a fair comparison, you should look at the run time with a motorised brush and higher power. For larger living spaces, a swappable battery or a short charging time can be more practical than an especially high peak figure.
A bagless vacuum cleaner incurs no ongoing bag costs, but does require regular filter care. Look out for:
A self-standing vacuum cleaner is also handy if you want the device to stay upright safely during a break. The stand function should only be used on level surfaces.

The lifespan depends on charge cycles, temperature, storage and operating mode. Where possible, use the appropriate power level rather than staying in maximum mode permanently. The battery should be charged with the supplied charger and must not be opened or damaged. With intensive use, a swappable battery can extend the practical service life.
A cordless hand-held vacuum cleaner is suitable for upholstery, stairs, car seats and small messes. For larger carpeted areas, a stick vacuum cleaner with a motorised Anti-Tangle brush is usually more practical. Check whether a brush for pet hair is included and how it is cleaned.
Electricity costs mainly come from charging the battery and depend on capacity, charging frequency and your electricity tariff. Additionally, you may need replacement filters, brush rollers or a new battery. A washable filter reduces the consumption of spare parts, provided it can be cleaned and fully dried according to the instructions. Liquids, hot ash and sharp objects should never be put into the dust container of these devices.
