Bagged Vacuum Cleaners

The outstanding advantage of a backpack (commercial) vacuum cleaner is its portability. If you are sturdy enough, a backpack vacuum cleaner is best for your home. You can stand up straight (without having to bend/stoop) as you vacuum-clean, and climb stairs effortlessly. A canister/upright vacuum cleaner can be quite cumbersome, heavy, difficult to maneuver, and awkward to drag along, or climb stairs. They are either behind or in front of you, causing frequent collisions into the edges of corners or doors. On the other hand, vacuuming with a backpack is a breeze. Backpacks have larger bag capacity than canister/upright vacuum cleaners, and are more powerful and robust than upright/canister vacuums. However, backpacks cost more, and have fewer features than uprights/canisters. Further, upright/canister models generally have user-friendly retractable cords which backpacks don’t; backpacks have tedious, manual wind-up cords. If you are a home owner needing a maneuverable, hassle-free machine for house cleaning, go in for a backpack.
