Finding the perfect vacuum can be tricky, especially when models range from handheld to robotic.
That’s why PEOPLE testers tried more than 350 vacuums to find the best in every category. Our testers crowned the Shark Navigator Pro Complete Upright Vacuum Cleaner the best upright model, raving about its impressive suction, maneuverability, and more. You can snag the tried-and-true vacuum on sale at Amazon right now.
The vacuum is equipped with multiple settings for different surfaces, making it easy to swap between carpet and bare floors. It’s also designed to clean floor-to-ceiling messes thanks to a wand attachment that reaches up to 11 feet high. It comes with a crevice tool, pet brush, and upholstery cleaner that attaches to the extended wand, thoroughly tackling those above-ground messes.

After multiple days of testing, our team gave the vacuum great scores across the board. The testers called out the device’s impressive suction, appreciating its ability to “effortlessly” snatch large particles like pet hair and cereal in one go. They found its suction equally effective on surfaces, including high-pile carpet and hardwood floors.
This is made easier by the vacuum’s swiveling head, which swiftly navigates around and under obstacles. The PEOPLE testers also noted that the device weighs 15 pounds, explaining that it can be used with just one hand. Although it’s corded, they still found the vacuum “user-friendly.”

The vacuum also has a HEPA filter that captures up to 99.9 percent of allergens that are sucked into the dustbin. This prevents dust, dander, and other allergens from being released back into your home when you empty the canister into the garbage.
Beyond the initial trial, one tester kept the vacuum so they could clean up after their two Australian Shepherds. They used it once a week for two months and still thought it performed well.
