Choosing a new vacuum cleaner is like trying to buy a new car or a new buggy for your baby, the options are mind boggling - you're going to use it often, it needs to suit you physically, not too heavy or cumbersome, you need to be able store it conveniently and not dread the moment you  unleash it from the cupboard and it springs open and tubes start flailing around jettisoning spare parts like unwanted baggage.
And finally, and most importantly, it needs to work edge to edge easily and effectively.

First, consider your physical needs, can you lift only the lightest cleaner, or do you require something a little more robust, do you suffer from allergies (hello Hepa filter.)
Then, consider your environment.  Do you live in a flat, house or bungalow..or mansion?
How often are you going to use it, do you have pets, children. Do you have stairs - what storage space do you have?
And finally, what kind of flooring are you going to use it on?  Carpet, wood, tiles or all of the above? 

First I'm going to start with my favourite all rounder the Miele Complete Total Solution

The first thing you notice when you unpack this little vacuum cleaner is that it is not heavy nor large but it most certainly packs power!  It has all the buttons for functionality on the top for carpets, hard floors or soft furnishings even delicate rugs and even a quiet setting so you don't disturb your wife or children while they relax. You can easily tap the ON/Off  and rewind cable with your foot and  the different brush heads are neatly encased in the top.

This vacuum can reach and manoeuvre into the tightest spots and the parquet head is brilliant for vacuuming walls and ceilings with a quick swipe! And with a Hepa filter on board you can rest assured that the vacuum isn't going to hurl the nasties back into the atmosphere of your home.

Finally the carpet beating head.  Kids, dogs and their associated debris will be easily sept up with this dynamic tool. 

It needs vacuum bags easily ordered from Amazon but they do last a surprisingly long time.

All round cleaning score 10/10
