LG - CordZero A9 Charge Cordless Stick Vacuum A905RM

LG CordZero, has swappable batteries, some models have a dedicated dustbin on the charger, and it has a variety of tools for hard and carpeted floors. I've been using mine for 4 years now. The trigger is a bit better designed than the Dyson V7 I had before.

I have the LG CordZero - HORRIBLE!!! Always gets clogged, never can use it for more than 10 minutes without dicking around with it. I'm buying a new vac which is how I found this thread. DO NOT BUY LG!!!!

I had an A9 that just died after about 5 years and I hated the dustbin. It was messy AF and kept clogging at the intake so I had to pull dust out by hand every time I emptied it. I'm looking for a replacement and I'm pretty hesitant to get another A9, possibly unless it's an auto empty one, or they have otherwise fixed it.

Does not exist. Regardless of what marketing departments try to sell us - What you’re looking for is 3 separate pieces of equipment. 1) Dry, corded and bagged primary vacuum for weekly deep clean: Miele C1 Cat and Dog, Miele C3 Homecare, Sebo K3, dart/felix, e3 2) Cordless/bagless stick for quick daily messes: LG A9 or Bissell airram 3) The gold standard for wet cleaning: A good old mop and bucket. The combo machines are a joke and will be in the trash within a year or two. Put the blinders on, ignore the marketing hype, go with what is tried and true.

Personally I wouldn’t get another cordless bagless as your primary vacuum. They’re not up to this task (regardless of what marketing departments tell us). Ideally you want 2 vacuums. 1) cordless bagless for quick daily messes: LG A9 2) corded and bagged primary weekly deep clean vacuum: Look at a Miele C1 cat and dog, C3 Homecare or Sebo K3/E3

Is this your primary vacuums? No. Avoid at all costs. What’s your flooring and budget. We can do wayyy better. Is it a secondary quick pickup vacuum? Maybe, but the V8 is better at that IMO. Same with the LG A9

Top contenders: Henry Quick, Miele Duoflex or Triflex, Samsung Jet Bespoke AI, 85 or 75. LG A9 Cord Zero, Shark PowerDetect, Shark Vertex Pro. The Henry, Samsung Bespoke AI and Cord Zero A9 all feature a bagged mechanism of some kind which make them hygienically a step above the rest. The Henry is the only cordless that actually has a bag which is unique to this category.

I've got both the Lg A9 and V8. Honestly they both do a good job on my hard floors, I get vacuuming done twice as fast as my corded Electrolux.  But take the motorised head off and try to vacuum window sills, baseboards, curtains and the lack of suction power becomes very obvious.  Battery life is ok for me, I get at least 30mins and it's enough for me to cover 100sqm of flooring.  Does require more maintenance than traditional canisters but I can live with that. 

Love my CordZero too. It's so easy to maintain because the cyclone is fully washable and so are the filters. Build quality is leaps and bounds above Dyson.

I've got the LG CordZero and it works great for all kinds of stuff.

The LG Cord Zero are really good and come with a second battery that can be charged simulaneously with the one installed in the vacuum.

Got three dogs at home and as you can appreciate they leave a lot of dog hair on the carpets. The LG can get most of that up. Also can rinse the filters out under a tap and leave to dry, rather buying new ones when they clog.

IMO it's better to have a "meh" vacuum that you're using all the time than it is an amazing one that is too cumbersome to ever pull out. We got an LG CordZero for our 500 sq ft apartment (no pets) and it was excellent for that. We are in a larger house with a baby now and were given a Roomba, and that feels like the same "jump" all over again - being able to do an ok-ish job vacuuming without any effort has made our house so much cleaner than it was. With that said, if you *really* care about cleaning performance than a nice bagged canister vac (like a Miele) will probably be your best bet. But it's gonna be the same situation as you're in now. Oh, and personally I'd avoid Dyson. They are popular and can work well but build quality is atrocious and they intentionally design the batteries to fail early so you have to keep up buying expensive replacements.
