    Bagged vacuum cleaners can more effectively generate suction and require less energy to do so. Baggless vacuum cleaners are a novelty, to be forgotten with the next sucky fad. Sorry the Roomba ate your lunch. Maybe you can pivot to the House of Lords.

      Bagged vacuum cleaners also leak less dust, both in operation and while dumping. They also need to be emptied far less frequently than bagless vacuums!

      I had a bagless shark for a while, and while I liked it, it recently died and was replaced by a bagged Riccar model. The bagged model really is much better at cleaning the air as it works. It’s great!

      The Dyson I use at work has a gimmicky design that’s harder to use and feels cheap and flimsy compared to both of them while costing significantly more!

        There’s that niche where you can pretty much eliminate sweeping with a light, portable, bag-less vacuum. I keep the bagged one for the deep cleaning but it’s a lot easier to overcome executive function block with a slim and light suckarooney.
