If you’re looking for robust, cordless vacuum cleaners that tackle general household dust, dirt, and pet hair, we think UK-based Gtech is a brand worth considering. Featuring a range of upright, stick and handheld models, they offer both bagless and bagged designs - good news if you suffer from asthma or allergies and would rather minimise coming into contact with dust and dirt.

I tested one model from each category, so read on to find out how they performed.

Tried-and-tested: Best Gtech vacuums at a glance:

How we tested the Gtech vacuums

We put three Gtech models through their paces on both carpets and hard floors, looking at how effectively they picked up fine dirt as well as larger debris. We awarded each model up to 20 points for the following criteria:

  • Ease of use: (6 points) Is it comfortable to use? | Is it light or heavy? | Is it nimble and easy to manoeuvre? | If there’s a cable, is it easy to pull out and retract? | Is it easy to remove hair from the brush? | Is it noisy?
  • Features: (6 points) What attachments are included | What features does it offer? | What’s the dust capacity? | How long is the cord (if it has one)
  • Cleaning results: (6 points) Does it vacuum well? | Is the suction good on both carpets and hard floors? | If cordless, does it have a good run time?
  • Value for money: (2 points) Is the quality good? | Is it worth the money? | Does it come with a warranty?

The team at YourHomeStyle has also tested a range of other vacuums, including the best Henry vacuum, best Dyson vacuum, best Shark vacuum, best Vax vacuum and the best Hoover vacuum.
