I got the m18 for my birthday a few years ago. No complaints, didn't blow my socks off or anything but it remained functional and is a completely competent vacuum.
I love my Milwaukee handheld
Tbh most are about the same minus storage techniques and brand name. Like I prefer milwaukee’s little square vacs cuz they pack away nicely. But I’ve got a smaller ryobi and some harbor freight stuff that all works just as well. Id just go with whatever you have the batteries for and fits for what u plan to do usually
I prefer the Dewalt, Milwaukee & Ryobi portable vacuums... Battery dies and getting a replacement is easy and they seem to have enough suction for stick vacuum duties. (Batteries hold resale as well!)
I have a 18V Milwaukee one that works great but it’s more than $150 I think. I would say if you have cordless battery platform just get one as most manufacturers have them. Bonus bc I also bought a blower to match and it is great to blow up tubes and blow debris off cover and such
I’m a big fan of the Milwaukee M18 cordless vacuum The portability/modularity if you already have their batteries. Biggest difference maker is a set of attachments for the nooks and crannies.
Milwaukee makes an awesome cordless one
I have a bunch of EGO tools and love em. I have the Milwaukee cordless one that’s like a little rectangular toolbox, or else I’d buy this.
