A cordless vacuum cleaner is just that: a vacuum without a long, clumsy cord to get in the way of cleaning. The cordless vacuum cleaner's ability to clean without a cord makes them convenient and flexible. Cordless vacuums are able to be carried anywhere. Cordless vacuums are great for all sorts of cleaning. Small areas like a car or large areas like kitchens and stairs are easily cleaned with cordless vacuums. Cordless vacuums can be used to clean vinyl, wood, tile and carpet floors.
Cordless vacuum cleaners come in a variety of sizes and comes with a multitude of different features. Some types of cordless vacuum cleaners are:
• Cordless upright vacuum cleaner (stick vacuum cleaner): uses a lithium ion battery (the same kind of battery that is used in laptops and camcorders). They are most commonly used for spot cleaning and routine cleaning.
• Cordless handheld vacuum cleaner: These cordless vacuums are used for quick clean up of spills. They are also used for hard to reach areas and cars.
• Cordless backpack vacuum cleaner: This kind of cordless vacuum is used mostly for commercial (airports, hotels, hospitals and schools) needs because they are heavier and less economical than other cordless vacuums. They would be useful in a building that has a lot of elevators because there is no cord to trip over and the elevator doors wouldn't have to be blocked or left open for the cleaning to take place.
• Cordless HEPA vacuum cleaner: These cordless vacuums have a HEPA filter. A HEPA filter traps fine particles like pet dander, dust mite feces, and pollen. These vacuums also have filtered exhaust so that the particles don't get released back out into the air.
• Cordless car vacuum cleaner: This kind of cordless vacuum cleaner is a handy way to vacuum a car. With this cordless car vacuum there is no need to pull out a heavy home vacuum and an extension cord or drive to a gas station. It can also be ready to go at all times with the use of a car vacuum charger.
Cordless vacuum cleaners are lightweight, portable and very easy to store. Sometimes cordless vacuum cleaners can even be mounted onto a wall. This means cordless vacuums can be kept almost anywhere such as in offices, workshops, or in various rooms of a home. Flexible and portable, cordless vacuum cleaners are convenience at its best!
