Vacuum cleaners for every situation
Whether you live in a compact apartment or a large house with multiple floors, there's always a vacuum cleaner that suits your situation. Below you'll find the most common situations for which TechPunt has the right solution:
- Daily upkeep in a busy household: an agile stick vacuum or an independently navigating robot vacuum keeps your home clean every day with no effort, even when you're short on time.
- Pets in the house: households with cats or dogs have to deal with pet hair on carpets, furniture and hard floors. A powerful vacuum cleaner with a special pet hair attachment removes those hairs thoroughly and effectively.
- Allergies or asthma: if you're allergic to dust mites or other allergens, a vacuum cleaner with certified HEPA filtration is a real benefit. This type of filter traps fine dust and allergens and ensures healthier indoor air.
- Hard floors like parquet or laminate: on delicate floors, a soft brush is essential to prevent scratches. With the right vacuum cleaner and the right nozzle, you clean parquet and laminate effectively without any damage.
- Carpets and rugs: for carpet, powerful suction combined with a motorized brush roll is the best choice. This loosens deeply embedded dirt and hair and makes your rug look truly clean.
- Small home or studio: in small spaces, compactness and easy storage matter just as much as suction power. A lightweight handheld vacuum or slim stick vacuum tucks away easily and is quick to grab.
- Garage, workshop or DIY projects: for cleaning up sawdust, dust and liquids after a project, a wet-dry vacuum is the ideal, versatile choice.
Whichever situation applies to you, at TechPunt you'll find the right vacuum cleaner at the sharpest price. View the full range and discover which model best suits your home and lifestyle.

Key features of every vacuum cleaner
Not every vacuum cleaner is the same. The features and technical specifications largely determine how pleasant and effective a model is to use. Below we've rounded up the key features to look out for:
- Suction power (in Pa or AW): this is the most heavily weighed buying consideration for vacuum cleaners. High suction power ensures that dirt, dust and hair are thoroughly picked up, even on carpet or from cracks and corners.
- HEPA filter: a certified HEPA filter traps fine dust, allergens and bacteria instead of blowing them back into the air. This is a basic requirement for households with allergy sufferers or asthmatics.
- Battery life (on cordless models): for stick vacuums and robot vacuums, battery life is decisive for how comfortable they are to use. A battery life of at least 40 minutes is considered enough for an average home. The Xiaomi Vacuum Cleaner G20, for example, offers a maximum battery life of 60 minutes.
- With or without a dust bag: bagless vacuum cleaners are cheaper to use since no bags are needed, and they usually maintain more consistent suction power. Models with a bag are appreciated by allergy sufferers because they're more hygienic to empty.
- Noise level (in dB): especially for apartment dwellers, a quiet model is a basic requirement. A noise level below 70 dB is considered acceptable for use without disturbing the neighbours.
- Navigation technology (on robot vacuums): smart robot vacuums from Xiaomi use advanced navigation software to map the space and plan an efficient cleaning route. Models like the Robot Vacuum S20+ or X10+ connect via the Mi Home app, so you can control and schedule them remotely.
- Combined vacuuming and mopping function: more and more robot vacuums come with a built-in mopping function. This increases the perceived value and makes daily upkeep of hard floors even easier.
By being clear in advance about which features matter most to you, you'll make a conscious and future-proof choice when buying a new vacuum cleaner.
Various Types of Vacuum Cleaners
The market offers a wide choice of vacuum types, each with its own benefits and uses. At TechPunt you'll find a suitable model for every type from the Xiaomi range. Below you can read all about the different kinds of vacuum cleaners.
Stick Vacuum
The stick vacuum is the most practical choice for many households when it comes to quick and easy vacuuming in between. This cordless model is agile, lightweight and ideal for both hard floors and carpet. Thanks to the cordless design, you're not tied to a power outlet and can vacuum flexibly throughout the house. When choosing a stick vacuum, battery life and suction power are the two most critical criteria.
Canister Vacuum (traditional vacuum with tube)
The canister vacuum is the classic type, with the motor housing sitting on the floor while you clean the floor using a tube and nozzle. This type usually offers powerful, consistent suction and is available both with and without a dust bag. For large homes or intensive use, this is a reliable choice, partly thanks to its typically longer cord. A cord length of at least eight metres is considered comfortable for vacuuming an entire floor without switching power outlets.
Robot Vacuum
A robot vacuum is a time-saving solution for daily upkeep, especially on hard floors. The device navigates the room autonomously, maps out the floor plan and cleans systematically while you do other things. TechPunt offers an extensive range of Xiaomi robot vacuums, spread across the E-series, S-series and X-series. Robot vacuums are primarily bought as a supplement to a regular vacuum cleaner, but the most advanced models can keep an entire home clean and mopped all on their own.
Handheld Vacuum Cleaner
A handheld vacuum cleaner is compact, lightweight and quick to use. This type is ideal for small surfaces, cleaning furniture and car seats, or tidying up crumbs on the table. Many Xiaomi stick vacuums, such as the Roidmi F8E, can also be used as a handheld vacuum because the wand is easy to remove. That gives you two ways to use a single device, which also makes storing it a lot more practical.
Dust mite vacuum cleaner
The dust mite vacuum cleaner is specifically designed to remove dust mites, allergens and bacteria from mattresses, pillows, sofas and carpets. Xiaomi offers the Xiaomi Dust Mite Vacuum Cleaner, a compact and powerful device that uses UV light and hot air to kill unwanted micro-organisms and remove deeply embedded dust. For households with allergy or asthma sufferers, this type of vacuum cleaner is a valuable addition to your cleaning routine, since a regular vacuum usually can't reach the deepest layers of upholstery.
Wet-dry vacuum cleaner
The wet-dry vacuum cleaner is a versatile device that can pick up both dry dust and dirt as well as liquids. This type is mainly sought after by DIY enthusiasts, handymen and users with a workshop or garage, but it's also handy around the house for cleaning up spills or knocked-over drinks. Its larger capacity and robust build make this type less suitable as an everyday household vacuum, but as a complement to a stick vacuum or robot vacuum it's a practical and indispensable choice for anyone who loves to tinker.
How do you choose the best vacuum cleaner for you?
Buying a new vacuum cleaner can feel overwhelming because of the wide range on offer. By asking yourself a few targeted questions before you make a choice, you'll quickly find the model that suits you best. Below you'll find the key points to consider:
- Floor type: hard floors call for a soft brush roll to prevent scratches; carpet, on the other hand, needs a powerful, motorized brush that loosens deeply embedded dirt. Always check whether the model is suitable for your floor.
- Size of the home: in a large home or on multiple floors, battery life and cord length are decisive. For small homes and studios, compactness and ease of storage matter just as much as suction power.
- Pets: a vacuum cleaner with a special pet hair attachment is essential. Without this accessory, you'll keep chasing pet hair around.
- Allergy or asthma: choose a model with certified HEPA filtration. A vacuum cleaner without this filter blows fine dust and allergens back into the air.
- Available time: a robot vacuum completely takes over your daily cleaning. A cordless stick vacuum is ideal for anyone who wants to quickly go through the house themselves. Combine both for the best result if you like.
- Budget: TechPunt offers cheap Xiaomi vacuum cleaners in the entry-level segment, but also complete and advanced models for those who don't shy away from a bigger investment. Thanks to the lowest price guarantee, at TechPunt you always pay the cheapest price in the Netherlands.
- Maintenance: consider the availability of replacement filters, dust bags and attachments. Regular filter maintenance is the most frequently mentioned factor for maintaining suction power over the long term. At TechPunt, the necessary accessories are available for all models.
With these points in mind, you'll find a vacuum cleaner at TechPunt in just a few steps that suits your home, habits and wishes, at a price that can't be beaten anywhere in the Netherlands.

FAQ about vacuum cleaners
Which vacuum cleaners have good suction power?
Which vacuum cleaners have good suction power?
Vacuum cleaners with strong suction power are measured in Pascal (Pa) or Air Watts (AW). For robot vacuums, 4,000 Pa is considered powerful for everyday use. The Xiaomi Robot Vacuum S20+ offers 6,000 Pa and the Xiaomi Vacuum Cleaner G20 delivers 150 AW. For carpets or pets, higher suction power combined with a motorized brush roll is the best choice.
What determines the suction power of a vacuum cleaner?
What determines the suction power of a vacuum cleaner?
Suction power depends on the motor power, the condition of the filter and the nozzle used. A clogged filter restricts airflow and immediately reduces performance. With bagless vacuum cleaners, how full the dust container is also plays a role. Regular filter maintenance is therefore the most important factor in maintaining suction power over the long term.
How long does a vacuum cleaner last?
How long does a vacuum cleaner last?
With normal household use, a quality vacuum cleaner lasts an average of five to ten years. Maintenance is key here: clean or replace the filter in time and regularly check the brush roll for trapped hair or thread. At TechPunt, spare parts and accessories are available for all models, and all products come with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty.
