Miele vacuums are awesome.

We have a Miele that is still working quite well after more than 10 years.

Many people in Germany also swear by Vorwerk, but I don't like them due to their MLM practices.

Kärcher is a German manufacturer that makes different kind of cleaning products.

I’m a fan of the Miele canisters. I’ve not come across a Miele appliance that’s not fantastic. I’m not sure I trust the battery vacuums, but then, that opinion isn’t limited to just Miele. Bags are better than bag less, unless you’ve pets and piles of fur.

Whatever you get, go bagged over bagless for longevity. The bag is an effective first filter as well as crap storage.

Our Miele is still going strong after years of use. It has only ever needed a power switch replaced, which was a 5 minute job.

Bosch is usually good quality

Pneumatic International i.e. the people who make Henry Hoover. You know the ones that are built like tanks that every cleaning service used because they're so reliable and last forever.

I believe they've also made a handheld one now.

Avoid Dyson, because they're overpriced, the build quality is terrible now, and Dyson is a Brexitier and Trump supporter.

I’ve been using a Severin (German brand) upright vacuum cleaner for 7 years with no problems.

I have a Clas Ohlson (a Swedish dry-goods chain, operating in Scandinavia, Germany and formerly the UK) store-brand vacuum. They’re inexpensive and reliable.

If you want bang for buck (we need a euro saying for this, effective euros?) I can recommend Inventum from the Netherlands. If I need household appliances they're usually the first one I check for country pride reasons.
