AIDTIPS Cordless Vacuum

The AIDTIPS runs up to 70 minutes on a single charge. Most users report the battery lasts long enough to clean their entire home without recharging.

The 600W brushless motor generates up to 50 kPa of suction. It picks up dirt, dust, and debris on both hard floors and carpets with power comparable to many corded models.

At 4.3 lb, it's lightweight and easy to move around furniture and tight spaces. The swivel steering allows quick directional changes, and users find it comfortable for overhead and stair cleaning.

For pet hair, look for strong suction (roughly 20,000 Pa or more on a robot vacuum, 150 AW or more on a cordless), a tangle-resistant brush roll, a dedicated pet tool, and HEPA filtration, which by definition captures 99.97% of particles at 0.3 microns. Dyson, Shark and Bissell all make well-reviewed pet models. Use the Pet Hair Specialist filter on our comparison table to see which ones are in stock and what they cost right now.

Most manufacturers suggest replacing filters every 3 to 6 months, depending on how often you vacuum and whether you have pets. HEPA filters usually last 12 to 18 months if you clean them regularly. Washable foam filters on bagless models should be rinsed every 1 to 2 weeks and dried fully before going back in. Replacements typically run $15 to $50. A clogged filter chokes airflow, so suction drops noticeably well before the filter looks dirty.
