The Kenmore Elite 31150 is a full sized upright vacuum cleaner that is designed to rid your home of pet hair, dust, and other microscopic allergens that can trigger asthma or allergies. It requires the use of bags but they seal up quickly upon removal and do a much better job of holding the dirt than most similar sized bagless models. It offers a good combination of affordable price, cleaning performance, and decent mobility. When you compare the Kenmore to other vacuums that cost many times more you will find that it has as much or even more ability for just about any situation you need it for. And to save your arms and back, the 31150 is self propelled so you can move along at a decent pace with little effort.
When they say that pet hair doesn’t stand a chance against this machine they really mean it. The 31150 Elite is built with an even more powerful inducer motor than their prior cleaners to provide upwards of 20% more power. This helps pull embedded dust particles from the deepest carpet fibers, leaving the floor much cleaner than before. The more dander and animal odor you can remove the fresher the air will feel, and the healthier the indoor environment will be.

The Dyson Ball Multifloor 2 is their all purpose upright vacuum that is equipped for just about any type of floor including carpet, tile, laminate, and more. It has a slimmer design than their other full sized vacuums and it is very lightweight. This makes it easy to use for extended periods, even if you have to carry it up and down the stairs. They seemingly designed this model with a goal of making it easy to maneuver around without sacrificing the power or filtration that has made their brand so popular today. The 2nd iteration of their popular “Multi-floor” has largely succeeded as it is a solid cleaner with a relatively low purchase price, at least as compared to other similar uprights.
The Compact C2 is a ‘do it all’ canister vacuum from one of the best known brands in the industry. It is one of the more unique vacuums in that it works great on all types of carpeting from low to high pile as well as smooth floors like tile, laminate, and hardwood. Most canisters are purpose built for hard floor surfaces and the occasional throw rug, but Miele realizes that the modern household needs more. Their lineup is one of the most robust that you will find, with several models in each category. The main thing that separates them is the attachments but there are other subtle differences that you should be aware of before you decide to buy one.
The SEBO AIRBELT D lineup consists of 3 different canister vacuum cleaners that are very similar, with only slightly different configurations. All 3 are full sized commercial grade models that are designed for whole household cleaning no matter what type of flooring you have. The choice you make will be based on if you have mostly carpets or if you have hard floors like tile, linoleum, laminate, and hardwood. But before getting into the differences lets highlight the main features that are common on each one.
The Venture Pro is a full sized canister vacuum cleaner from one of the biggest names in the industry. Oreck has been building vacuums for more than 50 years, having established their brand as one of the best for both commercial and residential applications. It’s no surprise that homeowners consistently give them very positive reviews since they were originally designed for professional cleaners. That same quality has carried over into the Venture Pro which is purpose built to handle any floor in your home. It works just as well on tile, linoleum, and hardwood as it does on carpeting which is a huge plus since most modern households have a variety of floors in them.
