The best cordless HEPA vacuum we've tested is the Samsung Bespoke Jet. Generally speaking, bagless vacuums like this aren't the best option for allergy sufferers since emptying their dustbins can release a plume of dust and debris. However, the Bespoke Jet comes with an all-in-one charging rack/Cleaning Station accessory, which uses a built-in suction motor to suck debris from the vacuum into a dirtbag inside the fixture. The vacuum also features a five-stage filtration system that's effective in sealing fine particles. It does superb on bare surfaces, and the vacuum does an excellent job of dealing with debris on low- and high-pile carpets. The vacuum comes with an additional accessory rack with a battery charging slot, enabling you to charge both included batteries at the same time and giving you a significantly longer maximum runtime.

It's worth noting that the vacuum's bulky twin-brushroll floorhead makes it harder to maneuver than many other cordless stick vacuums. If that's an issue for you, consider an alternative like the Dyson V15 Detect if you're looking for a cordless vacuum with HEPA filtration. However, the Dyson feels less sturdy and only comes with a single battery. The Roborock H7 is also a compelling alternative, if only for being one of the few cordless stick vacuums that can be used with disposable dirtbags, resulting in a clean means of debris disposal. The Roborock doesn't feel as robust and doesn't perform as well on carpets.

Samsung is a South Korean multinational that builds a wide range of consumer electronics, including a popular range of televisions, monitors, soundbars, and headphones. They also offer a range of cordless stick vacuums under the 'Jet' moniker. All Jet stick vacuums use the same basic design, tend to be noticeably lighter than most alternatives, and have a five-stage filtration system. However, they differ in bundled attachments, battery capacity, and suction motor potency. Samsung is also one of the few manufacturers to offer a self-emptying station for their cordless stick vacuums to reduce hands-on maintenance requirements as well as a dedicated mopping floorhead for dealing with stains.

The Samsung Bespoke Jet is the best Samsung vacuum that we've tested. It has a more potent 210 AW motor than other models in the Jet stick vacuum lineup, allowing for excellent debris pickup performance on bare floors and carpeting. Its headlining feature is its all-in-one charging rack/self-emptying station; when the vacuum is docked, debris is sucked from its dustbin into a dirtbag inside the charging rack, reducing hands-on maintenance requirements. Unfortunately, this vacuum's dual brushroll is somewhat unwieldy compared to the single-brushroll floorheads bundled with the cheaper Samsung Jet 90 Complete, resulting in a slight loss of maneuverability. However, the Jet 90 doesn't come bundled with a second battery to extend its runtime. If you're looking for something even more budget-friendly, the Samsung Jet 60 Pet is another great option. However, it has a less powerful 150 AW suction motor and a lower-capacity battery.

The best cordless HEPA vacuum we've tested is the Samsung Bespoke Jet. It may not offer the extremely robust build quality of the comparably-priced SEBO Airbelt D4, but it does have a few tricks up its sleeve. While most bagless models require you to empty their dustbins manually, which can release a cloud of allergens, this high-end stick vacuum comes with a stand-up charging rack that also acts as a self-emptying station. With the vacuum docked, debris is sucked from its dustbin into an anti-bacterial dirtbag inside the station at the press of a button, making for a far more hygienic means of debris disposal. The vacuum also features a five-stage filtration system that's effective at sealing fine particles. It delivers superb overall performance, too.

The vacuum's bulky twin-brushroll floorhead makes it harder to maneuver than many other cordless stick vacuums. If that's an issue for you, consider the Roborock H7 as an alternative. It doesn't come with an auto-empty base station and has a less powerful suction motor; however, it's one of the few cordless stick vacuums that you can use with disposable dirtbags, providing an additional layer of air filtration while cleaning.

We can't recommend the Shark Rocket Pet Pro highly enough for most people shopping for a top-tier stick vacuum. This vacuum delivered impressive results throughout our entire suite of cleaning tests &mdash; even with the more challenging ones. It has one of the longer runtimes for a cordless vacuum and has tons and tons of features that make it exceptionally convenient and user-friendly to operate. On top of that, it is a very versatile option, with different attachments and configurations for cleaning the vast majority of your home and storing it in a freestanding way. 
We don't have much of a list for flaws with the Pet Pro. This stick vacuum is a little louder and heavier than average, but not by a lot. We also noticed that it struggles slightly when cleaning close up to a wall if you vacuum head-on, but this is easily remedied by running the vacuum parallel to the edge while cleaning. Overall, the Pet Pro easily claims the title of best overall stick vacuum and should definitely be on your shortlist if you are looking for a premium product.

Consumer Reports

CR’s take: The well-priced slim Dirt Devil Power Stick SD12530 is no slouch when it comes to cleaning carpet and bare floors, and picking up pet hair, earning an Excellent rating in all three tasks. The corded model gracefully glides along edges, picking up dust as it goes, and it operates quietly.

Based on data from our member survey, Dirt Devil earns a Very Good rating for predicted reliability but only a Fair for owner satisfaction.
