Best vacuum cleaner deals on our tried and tested models

With spring in full swing and summer coming around the corner, it’s the ideal time to upgrade your cleaning arsenal for the annual spring clean and summer entertaining season. We’ve found plenty of vacuum cleaner deals to choose from this month.

Vacuum cleaners have come a long way from their plug-in days. Now, many have sparkly new features, such as LED lights to illuminate hidden debris, detachable heads and brushes to get into nooks and crannies, and even anti-hair-wrap technology to prevent tangles in your rollers.

While some people may need a vacuum with a large capacity, others may only need an easy-to-use cordless cleaner to bust the dust here and there. Others may prefer to cut out the hassle altogether and opt for a robot vacuum cleaner to take care of the dirty work.

Finding the right vacuum for you doesn’t have to be a challenge, though, as the IndyBest team has decided to make life even easier for you, curating a guide to the best vacuum cleaner deals, so you can make your home look spick and span, without going over budget.

Keep reading for all the best vacuum cleaner deals this month, including big-name brands such as Shark, Samsung, Dyson, Beldray and more.

The best vacuum cleaner deals for May 2025 are:

When it comes to cleaning, often the best approach is to think smarter, not harder. And nothing says clean cleaning like introducing some tried and tested smart technology into your routine. This robot vacuum from Eufy took the top spot in our review, and now it’s 20 per cent off. Our tech critic Steve said of the machine: “You can customise how hard it mops, how deep it cleans and the level of suction power it exerts. It’s a really smart little vacuum that needs almost no human input to work.”

Our favourite cordless vacuum is now 34 per cent off, so this is a deal you won’t want to miss. In her review, our expert in all things cleaning and home appliances, Zoe Griffin, said, “If having a clean home fills you with joy, the Shark stratos will make you euphoric. The suction power on carpet and hard floors is a dream. It’s constantly working out what power levels you need to pick up the most mess.”

If you love piling your four-legged friends into your car on the weekends for adventures on the road, this is the vacuum deal for you. Our home appliance expert Zoe raved about the speed and precision of this vacuum in her review of the best car vacuums. Zoe found that “The power-brush bar was fantastic at whipping away even ground-in dirt on the carpeted floor of the car.”

Dyson is almost synonymous with high-performing, advanced products. The brand has led the vacuum industry for the last 30 years, so it is no surprise that several of their models made it onto our best cordless vacuum list, including the V12. Our expert wrote that this was the best vacuum for suction, saying, “Moving the sleek, slimline V12 around the house felt like we were holding a tablet that cleans. The LED screen shows what’s been sucked up, displaying real-time scientific proof of a deep clean.” They went as far as to say that “The performance is unbeatable.” Dysons are notoriously expensive, so it’s worth picking this up for £120 off.

Now reduced by 25 per cent, this robot model has been designed to take the hassle out of housework. A number of eufy’s devices made it into our round-up of the best robot vacuum cleaners, so you know this is a highly rated brand you can trust. Despite strong suction, the G50 only makes 55dB of noise during use, while the active detangling design helps remove hair from the roller brush.

Taking the hard work out of keeping hard floors spick and span, the crosswave max vacuums and mops at the same time, picking up wet and dry debris along the way. The model featured in our guide to the best cordless vacuum cleaners, with our reviewer saying: “This multi-tasking appliance will suck and mop floors clean in about a quarter of the time it would take [with] a mop and bucket.” Even better, it has a “self-cleaning cycle to flush out dirt and debris, leaving it fresh for the next time you need it”, and it’s now discounted by almost £200.

If you have a four-legged friend running about the house (and leaving a mess in their wake), you may want to consider a vacuum cleaner specifically made for pet owners. This one, dubbed the best budget pet vacuum cleaner in our round-up, has a run-time of 50 minutes and excels at vacuuming both hard floors and carpets, according to our tester. They also found it “did a brilliant job of getting around furniture”, while the LED headlight “made finding any hidden dust and hairballs a breeze”. It’s now even more budget-friendly, thanks to this deal.

If you’re in the market for a handheld vacuum cleaner, you can pick up this Shark model with a discount of almost 28 per cent at Amazon. In our review, our writer noted that it has a small footprint and feels tactile and impressively lightweight. This meant they could reach above their head easily to hoover up cobwebs on the ceiling and more. It has a modest run-time of eight minutes but comes with a crevice tool, a pet tool and a charging station for docking between uses.
