Choosing the Right Vacuum for Your Space
We get it—there are a lot of options. But there’s more than one way to keep your space and its fittings clean and allergen-free. That’s why we offer such a broad selection!
Here are a few pointers:
- For Carpeted Homes: Carpet can be tricky as it retains dust and dirt more easily. Upright vacuums with motorized brush rolls hit the nail on the head. Easily deep clean and extract embedded dirt.
- For Hard Floors: You don’t want to scratch that beautiful hard flooring. So, we suggest exploring canister or stick vacuums with gentle suction and soft rollers.
- For Allergy Sufferers: Your comfort: it’s our business. At Sylvane, you’ll find vacuums with True HEPA filtration. These capture 99.97% of allergens.
- For Pet Owners and Groomers: We love our furry friends. Dander? Not so much. Luckily, we supply vacuum cleaners specially engineered for pet messes, too.
- For Small Spaces or Apartments: Don’t have a lot of space? No problem. You’ll find plenty of compact and portable options on our shelves.
- For Large Homes: For more extensive cleaning, go for a high-capacity canister vacuum, or even a robotic vacuum for zero hassle.
Just remember: before you buy, consider your floorplan and materials. In particular, consider any health sensitivities you or your loved ones have.

Vacuum Cleaner FAQs
What’s the difference between HEPA and regular filters?
It boils down to effectiveness. Regular filters are fine for larger particles. But True HEPA filters capture 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.
How do I choose the right vacuum for mixed flooring?
Look for a vacuum with adjustable suction power and brush roll settings. You might prefer a canister vacuum.
Are bagged or bagless vacuums better for allergies?
Bagged vacuums tend to be better for allergy sufferers. Why? Dust stays sealed inside the bag during disposal.
How often should I replace filters or bags?
It depends on the type. For HEPA filters, every 6–12 months. For standards, every 3–6 months. For vacuum bags, when they’re about two-thirds full will do.
Do robot vacuums work on carpet and hard floors?
Most modern robot vacuums can handle both. However, you should check the specs on the model before buying.
What should I look for in a vacuum for pet hair?
Features like motorized brush roll and tangle-free tech should help you manage dander.
Are cordless vacuums powerful enough for everyday use?
Modern cordless stick vacuums offer impressive suction. Our customers find them ideal for daily upkeep in small to medium-sized homes!
