How we rate stick vacuum cleaner brands

Our review compares stick vacuum cleaner brands on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which stick vacuum cleaner brand they think is best!



Canstar Blue surveyed 576 Australians for their feedback on the stick vacuum cleaner brand(s) they’ve purchased and used in the last three years.
  • The outcomes reported in these ratings are measured via PureProfile’s accredited online research panel.



Respondents rate their satisfaction with their stick vacuum cleaner brand(s) from zero to 10, where zero is extremely dissatisfied and 10 is extremely satisfied. Brand satisfaction was rated by respondents on the following criteria:
  • Value for money: How satisfied are you with the value for money of your vacuum cleaner (e.g. the quality and longevity of the unit for the price paid)?
  • Features and functionality: How satisfied are you with the features of your vacuum cleaner (e.g. suction power settings, attachments for different surfaces, and HEPA filtration) and how well they contribute to its cleaning performance?
  • Design: How satisfied are you with the design of your vacuum cleaner (e.g. its appearance, maneuverability, weight, and how easy it is to store)?
  • Ease of use: How satisfied are you with how easy your vacuum cleaner is to use (e.g. ease of moving between rooms and surfaces, simplicity of switching attachments, and how straightforward it is to empty or replace the dustbin or bag)?
  • Performance: How satisfied are you with the overall performance of your vacuum cleaner (e.g. how effectively it picks up dirt, dust, and debris across different floor surfaces)?
  • Battery and charging performance: How satisfied are you with the battery and charging performance of your vacuum cleaner (e.g. battery life per charge, how well battery performance has held up over time, and how quickly it recharges)?



The winner is the brand Aussies rate highest for the things that matter most to customers, based on overall satisfaction. To see how we crunch the numbers, check out our methodology page.
