Idk the best, but I use the Makita 18v shop vac.

Not the most stylish vacuum, but I got a Makita 18v brushless vacuum, it works with any Makita 18v battery from their power tools. So far so good.

I tried the "New LXT" next to the XGT before buying. The XGT has a considerably less annoying sound profile... this is way more significant than it sounds, especially for wife/gf approval factor The LXT is kinda whiny and annoying sounding. According to your numbers, the XGT has 17% higher suction and 20% higher airflow. In practice I did find this extra power significant. u/trickster2, you say Dyson is better but I dont agree. (I DO have a Dyson v11), the power head fell apart after a year and if you are using it on high the battery lasts a pitiful \~6-8min then takes forever to charge. (and the battery & motor are unreliable POS, requried several replacements) With the Makita you can cycle batteries and clean continuously. In practice I have several batteries but only need to cycle 2 for vacuum use.

I have both Makita 12V and 18V vacuums. They are awesome, especially if you already own other Maktia cordless products.

Tatsächlich hier als Hauptgerät ein kabelgebundener Sauger (Hundehaare) und für fix was weg machen ein einfacher Makita Akku Sauger weil wir als Hausbesitzer mit Garten jede Menge Akkus haben dank diverser Geräte. Ist aber auch wirklich nur für mal ebenen fix geeignet.
