What is better.. a canister or an upright vacuum?
Well, that depends. Upright vacuums, with their revolving brushes were originally designed to clean carpet. And canisters, along with their tools, were made to clean bare floors. Each was made for a specific type of cleaning and in the past, families had one of each. Today, uprights have tools and canisters use power nozzles to clean carpets. So it’s confusing. When making a decision, purchase from someone who is knowledgeable about what they are selling and make sure they have your best interests in mind… not theirs.
