I've handpicked the 15 best Amazon Prime Day vacuum deals on models that excelled in our tests – shop Dyson, Shark and more before they're gone
As a professional vacuum tester, these are the only vacuum deals worth considering if you want easy cleaning and spotless floors


10 July 2025. I've updated our handpicked list of deals with new pricing information.
If you're as into vacuum cleaners as I am, you'll know that Prime Day has been a scorcher this year. We're now on day three of the retailer's first four-day Prime sale event with new deals and even lower prices on some of our all-time favorite vacuums.
But remember – Prime Day ends tomorrow. If you're looking to upgrade your floorcare, now is the time to shop to save $100s on a new vacuum that will banish dust and pet hair.
Here, I've picked out the 15 best offers from the Amazon Prime Day vacuum deals, along with deals from other retailers that are live right now, and tips on how to make sure you're getting the lowest price.
I'm Homes & Gardens' resident vacuum expert, and my team of product reviewers and I have tested 75 of the world's best vacuum cleaners. We know exactly which models are worth your money, and the best time to shop for the lowest prices. And right now, we're seeing some of the lowest prices all year.
Where to shop for vacuum cleaner deals
Bookmark this page as I'm regularly checking the Amazon Prime Day vacuum deals. Many of the major brands and retailers are running their own counter sales, and I'll also be checking their offerings to find the absolute lowest vacuum prices.
Before you shop my easy list below, it's worth knowing there are budget models out there between $100 to $200, but they rarely do a good job of cleaning our floors. Instead, I'd advise forking out $350+ (retail price) for a great vacuum that will deliver cleaning worth the spend.

Our 15 favorite vacuum deals
Dyson V15 Detect | was $749.99, now $569.99 at Amazon (save $180)
The Dyson V15 Detect has spent an admirable amount of time topping many of our vacuum cleaner buying guides, including our best cordless vacuums and best vacuums for pet hair. In virtually all aspects – suction power, pet hair pickup, ease of use, versatility across all floor types – it beats all others.
One of its best features is a green laser that can reveal invisible dust that you can't normally see. It also has advanced dust detection, automatically adjusting suction power when needed, and is able to count each individual particle that it picks up.
It's only during major sale events that we see discounts this significant, so if you're looking for the best, don't wait until the next one.
Read my full Dyson V15 Detect review to find out what makes it stand out above the rest.
Dyson V12 Detect Slim | was $649.99, now $449.99 at Dyson (save $200)
One of the very best vacuums we've ever tested, the Dyson V12 Detect Slim is the smaller counterpart to Dyson's flagship vacuums: the V15 Detect and Gen5detect.
It has market-leading suction power, dust detection, and a green laser that illuminates dust that the naked eye can't see. It's also incredibly lightweight and works wonders on all floor types and debris.
Read my full Dyson V12 Detect Slim review to learn more.
Shark Cordless PowerDetect | was $449.99, now $319.99 at Shark (save $130)
The latest Shark cordless vacuum happens to be one of the best cordless vacuums we've ever tested. It performs excellently across all surfaces, adjusts to how dirty your floors are, and has a flexible wand for reaching under furniture without straining your back.
Read more in our full Shark Cordless PowerDetect review.
Miele Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog | was $999, now $599.40 at Amazon (save $399.60)
I tested this canister vacuum in a local pet shelter and it proved to be one of the best vacuums for pet hair we've ever used.
The best Miele vacuums are some of the highest-quality models in the market, and if you treat it right the Blizzard CX1 could last for longer than 10 years. Its only real drawback is the price, but with this huge discount I couldn't recommend it more.
Read more in my full Miele Blizzard CX1 review.
Tineco Pure One Station | was $599, now $249 at Tineco (save $350)
This cordless vacuum is one of our best Dyson alternatives thanks to its strong suction and performance on pet hair. Plus, it comes with a charging station that captures dust for up to 60 days and cleans the vacuum for you. The Tineco Pure One Station FurFree edition is also heavily discounted to $299, down from $799, and is ideal for pet owners.
Read more in my full Tineco Pure One Station review and find out which model is best for your home.
Ultenic U16 Flex | was $169.99, now $132.99 at Amazon (save $37)
Ultenic is the only budget vacuum brand I recommend, offering surprisingly strong features at a shockingly low price. It won't vacuum carpets well, but on hard floors its suction is more than enough, and it has a green laser that reveals hidden dust making it one of the best Dyson alternatives out there.
I tested this Ultenic vacuum against a $750 Dyson, and it's the only alternative I've seen with a green laser that actually works like Dyson's.
Read more in my full Ultenic U16 Flex review.
Shark Rotator | was $379.99, now $269.99 at Shark (save $110)
The Shark Rotator is already one of our favorite budget vacuums, but now with this $110 discount you can bring it home for even less. It's a great all-rounder, with strong suction and a flexible design for easy cleaning.
Read more in our full Shark Rotator review.
Dreame H14 Pro | was $699.99, now $399.99 at Dreame (save $300)
This is the best vacuum-mop combo that we've tested at Homes & Gardens. I still use it in my home almost half a year after testing, as it deep cleans all the hard floors in my home so thoroughly while taking no time at all.
Read more in my full Dreame H14 Pro review.
Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum and Mop with NeverTouch Base | was $999.99, now $649.99 at Amazon (save $350)
The PowerDetect robot vacuum is the latest in Shark's lineups of robots, and it boasted great performance on test at a modest price.
It can vacuum and mop your floors effectively, and the cleaning station is designed so that you do as little maintenance as possible.
Read more in our full Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 review.
eufy Omni S1 Pro | was $1,499.99, now $984.99 at Amazon (save $515)
This is the single best robot vacuum we've tested at Homes & Gardens in virtually every aspect except for the price. It can vacuum hair from thick carpets, clean tough stains from delicate hard floors, and generally cleans so thoroughly that it slashed our tester's manual vacuuming by 90%.
Our full eufy Omni S1 Pro review explains what makes it stand out above the rest.
Yeedi S14 Plus | was $1,399.99, now $899.98 at Amazon (save $500.02)
We're still midway through testing this pricey robot vacuum cleaner, but online reviews praise its intuitive and thorough performance, and it even won the 'Indoor Cleaning Technology Innovation Gold Award' at the huge tech exhibition CES.
Dyson V8 | was $469.99, was $469.99, now $299.99 at Amazon (save $170)
I've written about how the Dyson V8 is still worth it in 2025. It's the most budget-friendly option still promoted in Dyson's range, and its strong suction and lightweight build continue to be useful features, almost ten years after its release.
Read more in our full Dyson V8 review.
Dyson V11 | was $569.99, now $399.99 at Amazon (save $170)
We're still testing the V11, but its stats show it has the highest suction of any cordless Dyson that doesn't feature the fancy smart technology. So, if you want Dyson cleaning power without the expensive dust-detecting features, this is your best bet.
Black+Decker dustbuster furbuster AdvanceClean+ Pet | was $99.99, now $79.99 at Amazon (save $20)
A handheld vacuum should be part of your essential cleaning toolkit, especially if you have pets. Having one nearby means you can quickly clean up crumbs and hair clumps as soon as you spot them, keeping your home spotless between the deeper cleans. This is the best handheld vacuum we've tested, with powerful suction that can yank fur out of stubborn fabrics.
Read more in my full Black+Decker dustbuster furbuster review.
Shark StainStriker | was $149.99, now $99.99 at Amazon (save $50)
We've tested the Shark CarpetXpert and awarded it a rare five stars thanks to how flawlessly it deep cleans carpets. It has the StainStriker built into it, but you can buy it separately if you're looking for a small, portable spot cleaner that can pull stains, spills and solids from floors and upholstery.
My top vacuum deal tips and tricks
I've been covering appliance deals and sales events since 2021. After writing about every Black Friday, Prime Day and other major sale periods for the last four years, I've learned how to spot a genuinely good deal and a few things to do before heading into the online sales.
Although Prime Day has already kicked off, make sure to do your research before buying. There are tons of vacuum cleaners out there, spanning cordless, upright, canister, wet/dry and even robot models. Brush up on how to choose the right vacuum cleaner for your home and browse our buying guides (linked below) for advice from our thorough testing. The right vacuum cleaner depends on your home's needs; they're not all suited to everyone.
Doing your research beforehand equips you for every big sale that comes around. With retailers and manufacturers pushing their 'best' vacuum deals, it can be easy to become distracted and choose a model you wouldn't have normally gone for.
Online stores will occasionally bump up the prices before a sale event so that their discounts look much bigger. So when it comes to finding deals, you can use two sites to check whether you've found it at its cheapest.
CamelCamelCamel: This website works in a similar way, but exclusively for Amazon listings. You can enter a product name or URL, and it'll show you its entire price history. This is particularly useful as you can see when a vacuum is at its lowest price ever (then, you've found it at the right time).
Honey: This is a price comparison tool. If you install it as an extension on your browser, it'll pop up when you're on a product page and display info from across the web. It'll tell you if you've found it at its cheapest or if another retailer offers it at a better price. You can also view price history up to the past 120 days – this will help to show you whether you've found a genuinely good price, or if a retailer has bumped it up ahead of the sale so that the discount seems bigger.
Use Camel and Honey alongside each other to check price history, compare other sites, and learn more about the best times to buy a particular vacuum.
Pro tip: You can find refurbished vacuums online for a lower price. It might not sound appealing for such an important investment, but refurbished vacuums still have to meet rigorous testing standards to be sold and labeled as such. Dyson Renewed is a great example – it's their outlet store for recycled and refurbished goods. You can also find dedicated pages for refurbished vacs at Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy.
The best vacuums to look out for deals on
We've tested 75 of the world's best cordless vacuums, best upright vacuums and best robot vacuums and put them through their paces in our test center and in our own homes. If you're unsure where to look, start with my handpicked selection of tried and tested vacuums worth snapping up on a good deal.
The best vacuum cleaner you can buy
The Gen5detect has performed better than every other vacuum we've tested at Homes & Gardens. It's the flagship model from Dyson, boasting their latest and highest-quality engineering. It has a price to reflect that (almost $1,000!), so you'll want to try and grab this when it's on sale, by a lot.
Whether you're vacuuming super-fine dust, large debris, hair or fur, the Gen5detect can pick it up with complete ease. It has dedicated floorheads for carpets and hard floors too, as well as attachments for cleaning upholstery, pet beds, shelves and crevices.
But what makes the Dyson Gen5detect so excellent is its detection tech. It features a green laser that reveals dust that the naked eye can't see, and it adapts to how dusty your floors are and ups the suction power when you need it (but preserves it when you don't). It also has a Piezo sensor that counts each individual particle that's been picked up, giving you insight into what you're cleaning and where the messy parts of your home are.

The best upright vacuum cleaner
The Shark POWERDETECT is a relentless cleaner that easily makes light work of more serious cleaning tasks. This is our best vacuum for carpets, or any home with pets and kids as these high-traffic floors need more cleaning power.
Like the latest Dyson offerings, the POWERDETECT responds to your floor type and how dusty it is, so that it can adapt the suction power by itself. That means it's working less intensely on your delicate hard floors while digging deep into carpets, automatically.
It's also amazing on pet hair. On test, it was able to dig cat fur out of the carpet that wasn't even visible to the tester. A nice touch from Shark, too, is that it comes with an odor-neutralizer, leaving a fresh scent across your home after you clean.
Read our full Shark POWERDETECT review here.
The V15 Detect is part of Dyson's flagship range that includes the Gen5detect and V12 Detect Slim. They all share features but vary slightly in terms of cleaning power and size. The V15 Detect is the middle option out of the three, which makes it hundreds of dollars cheaper than the Gen5detect.
During testing, the V15 Detect was able to collect all of the dirt and fur from a dog bed, while also reviving its original color – something previous vacuums weren't able to. The Motorbar floorhead has anti-tangle brushrolls that can collect hair and fur without you having to manually remove it, and the Fluffy Optic floorhead has a soft roller, making it one of the best vacuums for hardwood floors.
It also shares the detection features found in the Gen5detect: the green laser to reveal invisible dust, the particle sensor, and the intuitive suction power. Although it's more affordable than the Gen5detect, it still costs $750 at full price, so you should always wait until it's on sale (the best sale price I've ever seen is $550).

When is a good time to find a vacuum deal?
In my time covering deals and sale events, I've learned that the best time to buy a vacuum cleaner is around September to January. This is often when brands are releasing new products, and the manufacturers and retailers will clear old stock to make space (by reducing the price). That being said, this isn't always the case, and I've learned that you can find vacuum bargains all-year-round if you know when to look.
Prime Day vacuum deals
Amazon Prime Day is live right now and will run until July 11, making it the first four-day Prime Day event where you can snap up discounted vacuum cleaners from all the big brands.
There are two Prime Days a year, and the second will almost definitely be in October 2025. Amazon's Prime Days always bring great deals on vacuum cleaners, but there isn't always the biggest selection. As it's only a single retailer, the range of products that are actually discounted can sometimes be limited, but I often see the well-known bestsellers on offer (like those from Shark and Dyson).
Recently places like Walmart, Target and Best Buy have been launching competing sales while Prime Day is live, often lasting for days or even weeks longer. If you look through all the sites, you're sure to find a great discount on a good vac.
Labor Day vacuum deals
Among all the Labor Day sales, I've always been surprised by how many impressive vacuum deals I've found, often rivaling those I see during Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Prime Day. Lots of stores get involved with the Labor Day sales, as well as the brands themselves (it's on the brands' own websites where I tend to find the best deals).
Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals
Black Friday (typically the end of November) and Cyber Monday (the first Monday after Thanksgiving) is the biggest sale event of the year. Historically this is where I've seen the most choice when it comes to vacuum deals, with retailers and the vacuum brands themselves all launching their own sales. If you're looking to browse, this is the best time to do so.
After Christmas and New Year's Day vacuum deals
For some online stores and manufacturers, this period is the last chance to clear old vacuum stock, so you'll likely find some decent price reductions. There may not be the best choice on offer, but if you're looking for something cheap, you're in luck. It's also the time of year when people generally spend less, driving the prices down further.
Memorial Day vacuum deals
Every Memorial Day there are floods of sales from the major retailers and all of our favorite vacuum brands. So if you're in the market for a discounted vacuum, it's worth waiting until the sales are live.
FAQs
How long does Prime Day last?
At first, Prime Day was only a one-day event, but in recent years Amazon have extended it across two days. Now, Prime Day July 2025 is running for an entire four days, giving members 96 hours to shop for a shiny new vacuum cleaner.
Within the dates, Prime Day always starts at 00:01 and ends at 23:59 Pacific time, or 3am to 2:59am if you're on the East coast. In the UK, Prime Day goes from midnight to midnight.
Is everything on sale on Prime Day?
Amazon aren't running discounts on every available product, but there are always plenty of deals available across home, tech, outdoor living and more.
Vacuums are heavily discounted during every Prime Day, especially the high-ticket items like the best robot vacuums. And while you're at it, it's also a great chance to stock up on other smart home must-haves or essential cleaning supplies.
Why are Dyson vacuums so expensive?
Dysons are so expensive because they offer the best, market-leading engineering. From our 75 vacuum tests, Dyson have come out on top in almost every way, and their vacuums have unique features that can't be found elsewhere.
I'd personally never recommend buying a Dyson at full price, though. They're on offer so frequently throughout the year that it's best to wait until some Dyson deals are in full swing.
If they're still too expensive then, we have a guide dedicated to the best Dyson alternatives, for similar cleaning power at a fraction of the cost.
Are cordless vacuums worth buying?
Yes, but it depends on your home. If you live in a busy, heavily carpeted home with pets, you'd probably benefit from the power of one of the best upright vacuums.
But if your home has a lot of hard floors, and you like to clean regularly, you can't beat the convenience of a cordless stick. They're lighter, more comfortable to use, and some are even rivaling the power of an upright vacuum (granted, these are the expensive ones, like the Dyson Gen5detect).
If you're on the hunt for the best vacuum deals, it might be worth learning how shark vs dyson vacuums compare, to see which will be best for your home. And if you're looking to make your cleaning a little easier, find out whether robot vacuums are really worth it, too.
