The ‘All In One’ Symphony is a uniquely designed cleaner from Bissell that makes cleaning your hard floors a lot easier than before. It is currently the only machine that will first vacuum the floor and then steam it at the same time, with no extra effort on your part. It’s a big time saver over the traditional method of using a broom and mop. Plus there are no harsh chemicals to dull the finish of your hardwood or tile, only steam from the water will touch the surface. Bissell isn’t really a company that is known for innovation in the industry but the Symphony is changing that perception for sure.
You can actually use it 3 different ways which make it quite versatile. It can be used as a vacuum alone, a steam cleaner, or like mentioned above it can be used as both at the same time. This is a nice feature since there will be times when you just want to hit the floors for a quick shine, or to remove some grime that is spread on. And likewise you might have a small spill that is much more convenient to power the vacuum through instead of getting a broom out of the closet. Once you get used to the different ways to effectively use it you will appreciate this feature more than others.

The Dyson 360 Eye was designed from the start to NOT be your typical robot vacuum cleaner. Just like their larger models the Eye was built on the premise that more suction power is always better. In fact, their testing showed that it had twice the suction as the other top robotic vacuums sold today when picking up dust on multiple floor types. While this might not be something you would expect from a robot it is important because you want it to be effective during use as it typically won’t be making multiple passes over the same areas unless programmed to. The Dyson engineers wanted it to be much more efficient than other similar priced brands.
The Hoover Fusion Pet is a lightweight upright vacuum cleaner with a surprising amount of built-in technology. Like other modern cordless models it has a long lasting lithium ion battery that not only holds a charge much longer than prior generation batteries but also keeps the power constant. This is important because you don’t want your vacuum to slowly lose suction and cleaning ability as the charge fades, which was a big problem in the first generation cordless vacuums.
The IONFlex 2X from Shark is a unique vacuum in that it provides the convenience of ‘on the go’ cordless cleaning while combining that with Shark’s DuoClean technology found in other models. DuoClean is a head design that works great on fine dust as well as large debris like rocks, food chunks, and dirt without changing the head or attachment. The lightweight design of the Ion Flex means you can move it around your home without difficulty and the different configurations (more on those below) make it easy to clean just about any type of floor, furniture, or high corner. It seems like today’s vacuums are all moving towards this type of flexibility since homeowners want to spend less time cleaning, and don’t want to buy multiple cleaners. And since Shark has always been on the forefront of technological advancements it is no surprise at how capable it is.
The Red Scout RX1 robotic vacuum from Miele is fully updated with modern technology to help it traverse your home on autopilot cleaning your various floor surfaces. With their improved Smart Navigation system that combines various sensors and electronics it is much more precise and reliable, learning your layout much quicker than before. Testing shows an improvement of around 1/3 in terms of efficiency over prior models so it will not only do a better job picking up dirt and dust, but also work at a quicker pace. And it doesn’t matter if you have hard floors or low pile carpet, it will transition from one to the other with no problem.
