Prime Big Deal Days is here, and with it comes a healthy selection of vacuum cleaner deals to save you $100s on your next cleaning upgrade. To compete, Walmart Holiday Deals serve up their own selection of discounts on a wide range of goods, and their vacuum cleaner deals seem to be the best online right now.

As H&G's home tech editor (and a self-professed clean freak), I know virtually all there is to know about the market's leading vacuums. Myself and a team of dedicated experts test and review the best vacuums on the market – 47 so far – so we know what makes the best cordless vacuums really the best, or how to spot the best vacuum for pet hair, and we definitely know how to separate a good deal from exaggerated marketing promises.

If you're looking for cleaning excellence, two of the best vacuums we've ever tested, the Dyson V15 Detect and the Dyson V12 Detect Slim (which I use in my own home) are both on offer with more than $100 off.

My top picks of the best vacuum deals

Dyson V15 Detect | was $749.99, now $579.99 at Walmart  and Dyson (save $170)
Best-on-test

Dyson V15 Detect | was $749.99, now $579.99 at Walmart and Dyson (save $170)

The Dyson V15 Detect has spent an admirable amount of time topping many of our vacuum cleaner buying guides. 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.

The only real downside is the price, but now both Walmart and Dyson themselves have reduced it by a generous $170.

Read our full Dyson V15 Detect review to find out what makes it stand out above the rest.

Dyson V12 Detect Slim | was $549, now $429.99 at Walmart and Dyson (save $119.01)
Editor's choice

Dyson V12 Detect Slim | was $549, now $429.99 at Walmart and Dyson (save $119.01)

One of the very best vacuums we've ever tested, the Dyson V12 Detect Slim is the small, affordable counterpart to Dyson's flagship vacuums like the V15 Detect and Gen5detect.

It has market-leading suction power, dust detection, responsive power adjustment, 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.

From all the vacuums I've tested for H&G, this is the vacuum I use in my own home. Read our full Dyson V12 Detect Slim review to learn more.

Tineco Floor ONE S7 PRO | was $699, now $489 at Amazon (save $200)
Vacuum-mop combo

Tineco Floor ONE S7 PRO | was $699, now $489 at Amazon (save $200)

I'm currently in the midst of testing this Tineco floor cleaner and, so far, it works wonders. It's a comprehensive floor cleaner, a wet/dry vacuum that can take care of solid debris and liquid spills, while giving your floor a thorough mop in the process. If your home has hard floors, this should be all you need.

Best cordless vacuum deals

They're increasingly becoming the standard in most homes, and for good reason. The best cordless vacuums offer the suction power and cleaning capabilities of even some top-end upright vacs, with the flexibility of cordless convenience. Here are some of our favorites, which just happen to be on offer too.

Shark Rocket Deluxe Pro | was $249.99, now $119.99 at Amazon (save $130)

Shark Rocket Deluxe Pro | was $249.99, now $119.99 at Amazon (save $130)

One of Shark's more affordable vacuums is now even cheaper, and is one of the lowest-priced deals you'll find this Prime Day (aside from the knock-off budget vacuums that I do NOT recommend).

The Shark Rocket is a corded stick vacuum, which isn't the most ideal for the mobility and freedom that a cordless stick typically offers. But by omitting a battery, the vacuum is now one of the cheapest vacuums available where you can actually rely on the quality (as it's from Shark – a favorite of ours).

Bissell CleanView XR | was $199, now $119.99 at Amazon (save $79.01)

Bissell CleanView XR | was $199, now $119.99 at Amazon (save $79.01)

Bissell is well-known for producing reliable floorcare appliances at a reasonable cost. They don't overcharge, so you can trust a $200 Bissell vacuum to be of similar quality to a $300-ish vacuum from a more expensive brand.

Now, the CleanView XR is on offer for $119.99, one of the cheapest vacuums available in the Prime Day sale right now. It has all the features you'd expect from a cordless stick: it's light, multi-purpose and has attachments for reaching low and high (like an extension wand).

Levoit LVAC-200 | was $199.99, now $149.99 at Amazon (save $50)

Levoit LVAC-200 | was $199.99, now $149.99 at Amazon (save $50)

With a tangle-resistant brushroll, five-stage filtration, and the ability to lie 180° flat - this cordless vacuum from Levoit has a lot to offer. It's reasonably priced, and now has a generous $50 off, making it an affordable option to upgrading your home cleaning this Prime Big Deal Day.

Best upright vacuum deals

If you have pets or enjoy a more traditional vacuum, one of the best upright vacuums might be for you. They're powerful and reliable, and all of the models below have been tested and approved by our experts.

Shark Navigator Lift-Away | was $199.99, now $119.99 at Amazon (save $80)

Shark Navigator Lift-Away | was $199.99, now $119.99 at Amazon (save $80)

We haven't tested the Navigator, but we've tested other Shark vacuums that use the 'Lift-Away' feature (like the Shark Stratos and Shark POWERDETECT), and it works great. Essentially, you can lift the pod out of the heavy main vacuum component for more freedom of movement when cleaning.

Also, Shark's vacuums dominate our list of the best upright vacuums. They're at the forefront of the upright vacuum market thanks to unrivalled suction power, pet hair tools, and genuinely useful features.

Dyson Ball Animal 3 | was $399.99, now $299.99 at Walmart (save $100)

Dyson Ball Animal 3 | was $399.99, now $299.99 at Walmart (save $100)

The Dyson Ball Animal 3 is an excellent upright vacuum with strong performance on all floor types – and pet hair.

On test, Camryn found it easy to maneuver thanks to its spherical design. It also vacuumed 'extremely well on carpets' as well as all hard floors, and its 'floorhead prevents pet hair from getting wrapped around the brush roll.'

Best wet/dry vacuum deals

Rising sharply in popularity due to the increase in hard floors in modern homes, wet/dry vacuums are a complete cleaning solution for both solid and liquid messes. They have brush rolls that can capture debris and spills, while mopping your floors in the process (often with a cleaning solution).

Shark HydroVac MessMaster | was $299.99, now $199 at Amazon (save $100.99)

Shark HydroVac MessMaster | was $299.99, now $199 at Amazon (save $100.99)

The HydroVac is one of Shark's leading wet/dry vacuums. It can tackle wet and dry messes while mopping your hard floors. It can even remove stains with the help of a Stain Boost mode when you need to up the cleaning solution and power.

We've reviewed the portable Shark MessMaster and found it to be almost perfect.

Roborock Dyad Pro Combo | was $659.99, now $436.99 at Amazon (save $223)

Roborock Dyad Pro Combo | was $659.99, now $436.99 at Amazon (save $223)

If your home has a mix of carpets and hard flooring, this is the full package. It's a multi-purpose, 5-in-1 vacuum cleaner that can be switched between wet/dry and cordless modes, so you can move between different cleaning modes throughout the house. The wet brushroll can also self-clean and dry itself with hot air, to prevent bacteria and mold buildup.

Best robot vacuum deals

The best robot vacuums do a lot of the home cleaning for you, saving time and effort thanks to frequent runs of your floors. They're relatively new inventions so they're not always the cheapest, but if you find the right deal you can get some premium home tech for a decent price.
