If you’re looking for a lighter corded option than the Vax or Shark uprights on this list, the Shark DuoClean True Pet might be a good option. Choose the appropriate attachment: Shark offers a range of attachments that cater to different surfaces and cleaning needs. For stairs, look for attachments with smaller brush heads or crevice tools that can effectively reach into corners and tight spaces.One of the cool things about this vacuum is that it’s very interactive, with an LCD screen that uses voice prompts to switch modes and update you on the cleaning process, as well as a touch bar you can use to control the suction levels. There’s also a smart sensor that detects hidden debris and an LED headlight to illuminate its path. But we especially also love the zero-touch dustbin that allows you to empty out the debris without even getting your hands dirty. Start from the top: To avoid redistributing dirt and debris onto already cleaned steps, begin vacuuming from the topmost step and work your way down towards the bottom. This way, any particles dislodged during cleaning will fall onto uncleaned areas. The V7 has replaced the excellent Dyson V6 series of vacuum cleaners– and we’re pleased to say it combines the V6’s powerful suction and array of excellent tools with several improved features. Minutes of run time is great, it has two power settings so that’s on the lower setting, on the more powerful setting it’ll be closer to 25 or 20 minutes. Then charge time is about 5 hours which is quite good.

Despite this issue, the lightweight design makes it a brilliant choice for cleaning stairs, although the slightly awkward shape can be difficult to use in a car. On the other hand, if you have hardwood stairs then a powered brush bar isn’t as important. Instead, you’ll need a vacuum that doesn’t just push dirt and other debris around potentially slippery surfaces. Hard floor attachments, such as those found on some of the Dyson V7 range, can help with this. It should also clean close to the edge of steps. It may look unusual but this unique extendable wand is designed to give you extra reach, effortlessly cleaning underneath low-lying furniture or appliances with its specially-designed bend. Tipped with dusting bristles to help prevent scratches, simply flip to clean the tops of cupboards.This vac is powerful, so you might feel it pull a bit as you use it, but we still found it easy to swivel and maneuver. It's easy to navigate around chair legs, though it did have a bit of trouble with wheeled furniture. We found that the battery power stayed strong throughout the entire test, and there was plenty of juice still left when we were finished. It is one of the pricier vacs on our list, but for the double duty it does on wet and dry messes, we think it’s worth it. Cleaning Performance. A vacuum must provide strong suction power, but it must also be able to deliver it through the tool you’ll be using on stairs. Many uprights, for example, have great power through the floor head, but can’t deliver the same results via the hose. A motorised toolcan greatly reduce cleaning timeon carpets, as it can stir up dust, hair and dirt. This vacuum transitions from hardwood to carpet with ease, and attachments like the built-in dusting and crevice tool come in handy time and time again. Additionally, emptying out the dustbin when it’s full with its hygienic ejection mechanism is a breeze. On the downside, it is a pretty heavy device at a little over 7 pounds, and you may need both hands to hold it up properly as you work. Still, there’s plenty about this vacuum that makes it a great choice. Using a Shark Navigator vacuum is easy and efficient. First, make sure the dust bin is empty and the filter is clean. Then, plug the power cord into a suitable outlet. Once the vacuum is turned on, you can use the handle controls to adjust the suction, power brush, and floor mode. To begin vacuuming, guide the vacuum head over the area to be cleaned, making sure to keep it at least one inch from walls and furniture. When you are finished, turn the vacuum off and unplug the power cord. Empty the dust bin, rinse the filter, and then store the vacuum in a safe, dry place.

We found the vacuum to be a bit tall and bottom-heavy, so there is a bit of a learning curve to maneuvering it around your space. This will make it a chore when carrying it up the stairs, but we do like the hand vac and the attachments for getting it into harder-to-reach spots. There’s no problem moving the vacuum up over the edge of an area rug to the hard floor, and it’s easy to change the setting to adjust the suction power for both. That’s one of the reasons why the Vax Air Lift Steerable (the successor to the Vax U84-AL-Pe Air Lift) has a lift-out cylinder. This is designed to make above-floor and stair cleaning easier without sacrificing power – and it makes a big difference. HairPro Pet Power Brush features no hair wrap technology and a small brushroll that spins and pulls out pet hair and similar dirt from upholstery, pet beds, sofas, stairs, and similar surfaces. The cleaning action is very gentle, however, when vacuuming rather sensitive surfaces, it is recommended to use the Upholstery Tool, just in case. Aside from the extendable hose, the WX030 also has a crevice tool that’s handy for cleaning along the edges of steps. The 20V battery provides decent suction and allows for 25 minutes run-time before needing to recharge. One of the best features of the HV390UKT, at least when it comes to stair cleaning, is that it can convert to handheld mode. ​While the handheld mode loses the powered floor head, you can attach the turbo pet tool for deep cleaning of carpets. A dusting brush and crevice tool are also included.
