Get one with a cord. Also, Dyson filters need to be cleaned often. Try cleaning the filter to help with suction. I have a Dyson multi floor canister (with a cord) and have had it for over a decade. I still love it. Recently my husband bought me a handheld cordless shop vac for cleaning up messes in the kitchen. It's awesome. It's by Ryobi and uses the same battery packs as my husband's tools. I highly recommend it. They have a stick vac version of it too.
I have a Ryobi 18v vacuum and I’ve been liking it so far
The Ryobi is the best 18/20V vacuum on that list, though. The Samsung and Tineco *might* work with an adapter (they're 21.6/24V, so FLEX and Kobalt batteries would work), but the Dyson, LG, and Shark are 25.2/28V and likely would barely run at all with Ridgid 18/20V batteries. Also, the Ryobi is $100. The cheapest vacuum that beat it in Project Farm's video is the $300 LG. That's more than "a little more", it's triple the price.
I think that's the same one I have. I use it with DeWalt batteries and an adapter. Works as well as any vacuum I've used, better than most, plus it's small enough to be stored with all of its accessories in a toolbox.
I have the Ryobi 18 volt from Home Depot. They always have their batteries on sale too. I like it because I have about 10 tools that use the same batteries.
