Independence first
TheVacuumHub is written and tested by two people — Laura Williams and Mohamed — not an editorial team of strangers. We do not accept payment, free products, or any other consideration from manufacturers in exchange for a favourable review, a specific ranking, or inclusion in a guide. No brand sees a review before it’s published.
How we choose what to test
We buy or borrow the vacuums we review. A unit is chosen because it’s relevant to a real question one of us has faced — managing allergens in a family home, or standing up to the neglected properties Mohamed cleans between painting jobs — not because a manufacturer has asked us to feature it.
How we test
Every review reflects hands-on testing in real conditions: Laura’s 3,267 sq ft multi-floor family home, or Mohamed’s end-of-tenancy properties. See our full How We Test page for the specific checks we run, including HEPA seal integrity and Laura’s 5-minute home test.
Affiliate relationships
TheVacuumHub is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program. Some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you make a purchase through them, at no additional cost to you. This never influences which products we choose to test or what we say about them. See our full Affiliate Disclosure for details.
Corrections and updates
Vacuum models, pricing, and availability change. When we’re made aware that information in a review or guide is out of date or incorrect, we correct it. If you’ve spotted something that needs fixing, please get in touch.
