This vacuum is perfect for anyone tired of lugging around a bulky machine, and it’s almost 55% cheaper. Being 33% lighter than the Dyson V11, it’s a breeze to maneuver around furniture, up the stairs or even into those hard-to-reach ceiling corners (until I got my first spot I never knew I needed to vacuum it ). But don’t let its slim build fool you: it has the same impressive suction power as its bigger siblings and tackles dirt, pet hair and dust like a pro.

The battery lasts up to 40 minutes, so you’ll have more than enough time to work through each room before the holiday guests show up. Plus, its sleek design makes it easy to store, which means one less thing to worry about when you need to clean up at the last minute.
