Cleaning

Floor cleaning has split into three approaches and they suit different houses. Robot vacuums now do the daily maintenance sweep on their own, and the models here go further, combining vacuuming with mopping and self-emptying or self-washing base stations so the machine cleans its own mop rather than leaving a dirty pad. Cordless stick vacuums are the choice where stairs, cars and quick spills matter, with anti hair wrap and floor detect worth having in a house with pets or long hair. Steam mops sanitise hard floors using heat rather than chemicals, which suits homes with young children or animals. Consumables run alongside, with replacement vacuum bags and filters for the machines that use them. Suction is quoted in pascals on robots and rarely comparable across brands, so weigh bin capacity and mopping method more heavily.

The range is built on the specialists in each approach, with Shark across cordless stick vacuums, handhelds, wet vacs and steam mops, Eufy and Dreame across robot vacuum and mop systems with omni base stations, Mova on robot vacuums, and Morphy Richards for steam generator irons. The main departments underneath are Vacuum Cleaners, Robotic Vacuums, Irons & Steam Mops, Vacuum Bags and Cleaning Products.
