Bagged versus Bagless Vacuum Cleaners

Bagged versus bagless vacuum cleaners comes down to a matter of personal choice, as people who own either one or the other will rarely be prepared to change, despite apparently clear reasons for choosing one over the other. The best known company that only manufactures bagged vacuum cleaners is Miele and owners of any of their products, when asked to write a review, have nothing but praise. Dyson, the main manufacturer of bagless vacuum cleaners, also have an army of satisfied customers. So, what are the main differences between the two sorts of cleaner technology?

Suction

People who prefer bagged cleaners say that the bagless cleaners lose suction over time and the convenience of being able to change the bags, which often include a large proportion of the cleaner's filtering system, prevents this. Owners of bagless machines, and the manufacturers, argue that by washing the filters, or changing them in some instances, keeps them clean and the suction as high as on the day they were bought. Bagless wins the day on suction.

Clean emptying

This is where the camps come out fighting. Some cleaners, for example the Miele S4212, seals the bags as you remove them, but there is still a small amount of dust leakage. Bagless vacuums on the other hand, while not requiring the handling of bags of dust, can result in dust flying out of the bin or wherever it is emptied. The Dyson DC32 Animal, along with others in the range, has a button to press which releases the floor' of the cylinder, so as long as the whole thing is held in a bag, there is no release of dust. The camps are honours even on this point.

Smell

Filtration systems on both types more or less remove the smell issue, but it is not cost effective to change a bag every time the vacuum is used, so there would have to be some smell eventually as the bag nears full. This is by definition not a problem for bagless, when the cylinder can be washed and deodorised every use if necessary. The bagless brigade comes off best on this one.

Cost

Bagless vacuums can be more expensive, but after the initial purchase, there are no bags to buy and filters are washable for years. Bagged vacuums must have new bags bought, even if you do as many users recommend and empty the bag and re-use it, new ones will be needed from time to time. This comparison is not a matter of taste bagless vacuums cost less to run than bagged.

The consensus seems to be that except for suction, which could be said to be equivocal and cleanliness of emptying, where both sorts have disadvantages, bagless beat bagged by two clear votes.
