If you’re looking for a Dyson on sale, the better deal right now between my two favorite Dyson stick vacuums is the Gen5 Detect. It’s been marked down many times this year, and this is also not the lowest price I’ve seen, so you don’t necessarily need to hustle. There are new Dyson stick vacuums due out this year, though, so you might want to see if you like those models instead (or if those releases lower the price of this model further).

If you’re looking for something truly cheap but still good, the Bissell PowerClean is the way to go. For under $200 (since it’s on sale!), you can get a vacuum that stands up on its own, has HEPA filtration, can convert to a hand vacuum, and features Bissell’s proprietary tangle-free brush roll. It’s a good range of features for the price, though certainly not the most powerful vacuum we’ve tried.

Best Hand Vacuums

Looking for a cheaper Dyson? The Car+Boat came out last year and is Dyson’s newest handheld-only vacuum. It’s powerful with a nice, long battery life—which is uncommon in hand vacuums—and is our all-around favorite in the category. It was designed for cars and other vehicles, but it also makes for a great companion if you have a robot vacuum and want something for spot and stair cleaning.
