I am hoping to take advantage of Amazon Prime Days and purchase a cordless stick vacuum and/or robot vacuum for my downstairs which has tons of hardwood and carpeting. I prefer a vacuum with a long charge life and one that you don't have to push the "on" button down the whole time you are using it. I prefer quality over low price. Also, I have never owned a robot vac, but I may consider one if it is high quality and easy to use.
Hit me with your recommendations or ones to avoid. Thank you!!

I have corgis. We have three levels of house and more than one vacuum on several levels.  . The Dyson ball is for carpet (and not what you are asking about). The other two levels each have an iRobot that goes 3 times a week. I have a Euphy (good, not great), and my iRobot Shark that empties itself and is connect to my phone is a workhorse and effective. I also have a Shark Rocket Pro (cordless- works about 20 minutes) that is super powerful and works on the wood/low pile rugs and can get under most furniture. It also lights up so you can see that corgi glitter get sucked up. |

I’m currently running the Eufy wifi robotic vacuum in my house right now. I won it in a drawing and so far, so good!  We also have a Roomba at our lake cabin that we bought years ago that we’ve also been mostly happy with. The issues we’ve had with our robot vacuums is that they take a long time to vacuum a small room, they’re noisy as they bump into walls, doors and furniture, they get stuck under low furniture, they have a very small dust bin that fills up fast if you have pets that shed and you have to be careful about not having cords on the floor. I also have a cordless Shark vacuum at the lake cabin that I like. The battery lasts about 45 minutes which is fine for what I need. It’s really lightweight which is great for moving it between levels of the house and doing stairs. I bought it a few years ago on clearance at Target so I’m not sure if the model I have is still available but this one looks pretty similar. www.amazon.com/Shark-Navigator-Freestyle-Brushroll-SV1106/dp/B00C351GBC/ref=sr_1_3?crid=29ZENXU5F90MJ&keywords=shark+cordless+vacuum+cleaner&qid=1689006539&sprefix=Shark+cordless+vacuum%2Caps%2C161&sr=8-3ETA: After running the Eufy twice now, I will say this one is a lot quieter than our first Gen Roomba. The Eufy has a front sensor that prevents it from bumping repeatedly into walls and stuff, plus in general it just runs quieter. I also like that it has a separate remote control and is also wifi enabled so I can run it remotely from Google Assistant or the Eufyhome app. |

My Eufy robo-vac runs in the middle of the night, every night. It's made my (cat fur and tracked litter) life a LOT easier.

I have an irobot j7+ named Rosie - she's awesome. She maps so I can start her and send to her specific spaces via app. She's self-emptying and returns to her dock when she needs to recharge.
