You never know what you’re going to get with Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, but it’s quickly become clear that this is the year that they’re serving up the best vacuum deals around. From Shark and Dyson through to Roomba and Eufy, there’s a deal for every kind of home. 

I’ve tested over 30 of the best vacuums on the market and they’ve all had something different to offer. Right now, with Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, you can nab a deal on one of the best vacuums for pet hair (the Shark LiftAway) for £120 off as well as the best value Dyson, which is retailing for £200 less than its normal RRP. 

I promised myself that I would steer clear of vacuum puns, but I really mean it when I say that Amazon’s vacuum deals are cleaning up. Buying a new vacuum should feel like a treat, not a chore, which is why I am happy to see these seriously sensational savings.

Where can I shop vacuum deals?

There are a few places that I always check for vacuum deals. Some of my go-tos don't have sales on, but Amazon really does. I'd recommend starting with the Amazon Big Spring Sale vacuum deals and then shopping around if you're not quite satisfied. Here are the places to shop if you want the deals that'll really clean up.

FAQs

When is a good time to buy a vacuum?

It's Amazon's Big Spring Sale and I've seen some of the best vacuum deals of the year. Normally, I'd recommend holding out, but I really think the Shark and Dyson deals will sell out soon.

Is Shark or Dyson better?

There's no straight answer for which vacuum is better, because they both cater to very different needs. Shark's models are inexpensive with lots of flexible, useful attachments to reach every crevice. Dyson's models feel like they'll be more durable, reliable, and they're often a lot more simple. I've ended up with a Dyson in my home, but that doesn't stop me from admiring a Shark vacuum when one pops up.


I'll keep you up to date on all the best vacuum deals that come in to the Amazon Spring Sales. I think stock will fly out, we are in the season for Spring cleaning, after all.
