The difference is that they are powered by a battery, rather than the mains supply..

The Duronic VC7020 comes with two floorheads.For maximum cleaning performance, you should use the turbo brush for carpets, and the standard brush for hard floors..

While the VC7020 provides decent value for the price, we think models like the Hoover Enigma Pets are a better option for a similar price (.check out our guide to vacuums under £100 for more alternatives.The VC7020 isn’t a bad vacuum, but it’s let down by poor hard floor performance and a design that’s difficult to manoeuvre around the home.. With that said, the Duronic is still worth considering if your home is mainly carpeted.

It does a solid job at cleaning both short and long-pile carpets when using the turbo brush, and can even handle pet hair.We also like that it comes with a HEPA filter, automatic cord rewind, and two floorheads.. VIEW PRICEThe Shark IZ251UKT is an impressive cordless stick vacuum.

It provides strong suction, comes with loads of interesting features, and we love the dual battery system for increasing battery life.

It’s also excellent for cleaning hard floors.It won’t remove stubborn dirt stuck to car mats, but we’re yet to test a handheld vacuum that can manage this job..

Unfortunately, its car cleaning performance is let down by the lack of a proper crevice tool.The provided tool is too short to get between seats and other awkward locations – especially as the vacuum itself is quite large and rigid – making it difficult to give the car a full clean.

And, with only around 10 minutes of run time, you might not get the whole interior cleaned before running out of battery.. For these reasons, we don’t recommend buying the CH950UKT specifically as a. car vacuum.It can still be useful for cleaning most of your car interior though.. Stairs.
