The best vacuum cleaner for most Canadians is a light, well-rated stick or upright from a known brand, such as the Shark Rocket or BISSELL Featherweight below, because they are easy to store and cheap to replace. If you want a premium machine, the Dyson V15 Detect Plus and Miele Classic C1 sit at the top of this list on price.
Prices and ratings were checked on Amazon.ca on Nov. 3, 2026 and may change.
How to choose a vacuum cleaner
Corded or cordless? Corded sticks and uprights never run down, and several here cost under $100. Cordless models cost more and trade a power cord for limited runtime, so check the listing for battery life.
Upright, stick or canister? Uprights suit larger rooms of carpet, sticks are light for quick cleanups and stairs, and canisters keep the motor on the floor behind a hose and a wand. Pick the shape that fits how you clean.
Bagged or bagless? Bagless models, such as the BISSELL and Eureka picks, skip replacement bags but need their dust cups emptied and filters cleaned. Bagged models, such as the Miele, need bags bought over time.
How much should you spend? The vacuums here run from about $39 to $1,000. The cheapest sticks have tens of thousands of ratings, so a higher price mainly buys a bigger brand name, extra tools or a cordless design. Read recent reviews for complaints about filters and hoses before you commit.
