Spring is right around the corner in Australia, officially landing on September 1 – a week before Father’s Day – and that means we can once again roll out the obligatory ‘spring cleaning’ vernacular. Of course, what this actually means, is that it could be a perfect time to reassess your home cleaning tools, with a stick vacuum likely being top of the list.

As you’re likely aware, not all the best cordless vacuum cleaners are created equal, as you’ll find different models have distinct specifications and features, such as battery life, suction power and and whether they can vacuum and wash hard floors at the same time.

If your vacuum cleaner is on the fritz, we’ve picked out four fantastic models that are happy to step in as a replacement. With discounts of up to 49% and prices starting from just AU$305, securing yourself a brand new model in time for cleaning season is more affordable than you might think.

Shark Hydrovac Pro XL Cordless 3-in-1
Save 32% (AU$144.99)
Shark Hydrovac Pro XL Cordless 3-in-1: was AU$449.99 now AU$305 at Amazon

Shark is one of the more reliable names in home cleaning and this 3-in-1 model, designed for hard floors, will vacuum, mop and even clean itself. While it might be intended for hard floors specifically, we found in our Shark Hydrovac Cordless review that it can also be used on low-pile carpets and rugs, leaving them clean and fresh. It performs brilliantly when faced with both wet and dry spills, although you should know the 25-minute runtime may not be quite enough for larger homes. For an affordable floor cleaner, however, we think it’s a bargain.

Tineco Floor One S5
Save 49% (AU$370)
Tineco Floor One S5: was AU$749.99 now AU$379.99 at Amazon

Tineco has been taking the stick vacuum market by storm in recent years, with several models and cleaning methods available (including steam cleaning in select models). This wet-dry vacuum earned a solid four stars in our Tineco Floor One S5 review, earning praise for its ability to effectively tackle solid and liquid messes. It benefits from the company’s iLoop smart sensor system, which automatically adjusts suction power and water flow when it detects particularly dirty areas. A self-clean cycle ensures it’s fresh to use for the next run around your home. You’ll just need to empty the dirty water tank between uses to avoid nasty odours. And do note this one won’t work on soft flooring, so it's not very handy for a house full of carpet.

Dyson V10 Cyclone
Save 46% (AU$504)
Dyson V10 Cyclone: was AU$1,099 now AU$595 at Amazon

The V10 Cyclone is one of Dyson’s older models, but it’s still a highly competent performer, offering excellent suction power and great battery life. It’s easy to use and, at 2.6kg, is lightweight to move around your home. As you may have gathered, the V10 Cyclone can’t wash your floors, but as an everyday debris destroyer, it’s fantastic value. Newer Dyson models do provide improved designs and features, but they also cost at least double the price of the V10.

Dyson V15s Detect Submarine Absolute
Save 36% (AU$554)
Dyson V15s Detect Submarine Absolute: was AU$1,549 now AU$995 at Amazon

This Dyson stick vacuum also mops hard floors (the company’s marketing team had a good day when choosing the name Submarine) but usefully, it can also be used on carpets and soft floors thanks to interchangeable cleaning heads. Essentially, you’re getting two vacuum cleaners in one, making for an attractive and affordable package. Our tester noted in our Dyson V15s Detect Submarine review that “vacuuming is excellent and the Submarine floorhead also works pretty well for basic cleanups”.

Ecovacs Deebot T30 Omni: was AU$1,749 now AU$799 at Amazon

OK, so this isn’t a stick vacuum, but if you’re looking for some extra help around the home, a robot vacuum is ideal. As you’ll read for yourself in our Ecovacs Deebot T30 Omni review, this is one of the best performers for both vacuuming and mopping. It’s able to record an accurate map of your home for intelligent cleaning, and it does a particularly great job of getting up close to edges. Best of all, it’s now received a huge 54% discount, making this automated cleaning bot one not to be missed.
