A30S Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner

I've had good luck with Tineco. My Tineco A11 lasted me 4 years so far. I just got a Tineco A30S 1 month ago and so far it's working well for me, they stop making the batteries swappable but at least the battery life is okay.

Tineco is the top *budget* pick. The top pick is Dyson v12 with two other brands above the budget pick. I mean I have a Tineco too, but it’s nowhere near a Dyson. 

This is the budget wirecutter recommendation: https://www.walmart.com/ip/6195650771?sid=c3c8e6d3-ba29-4cae-a4a5-5ade4c99ca08

Probably not a popular brand on this sub for inexplicable reasons, but I highly recommend Tineco — look at the A30S — for your application.

I think the Tineco self emptying cordless is self propelled. I bought mine a couple of years ago and it works great on carpet. Not so much on hard floors 😞 So I bought a V15 at Costco. I guess I’ll keep it but I’m underwhelmed. No self emptying, no On/Off button so you have to squeeze it, no self propelled, etc. And I have trouble changing attachments. Oh well 😱 I guess it works okay on the hard floors.

If cordless is what you’ll actually use, Tineco might be worth a look. I’ve had okay results with their stick vacs on both carpet and hard floors, and the bin is easy enough to clean. Not perfect, but it’s been practical for regular use.

Why torn? Stick vacs are awesome. I just wish there were more USA made models, until then it’s MAC bid or tineco brand for the win

Get the Tineco products. I have the stick vac, the floor mop and the wet dry spot vac. All of these have performed without issue for years for us vs the dyson stick and we went through 3 of the Bissell spot cleaners (pet and auto ones). Best part is all 3 of these cost the same as one Dyson
