hi all ,
i recently moved into a new home that has very thick carpet. I have a miele c1 turbo thanks to you fine folks that works wonders on hardwood and even on light carpet, but doing a single bedroom with the thick carpet wears me out. i’ve adjusted the suction and the head and it’s still quite difficult.
The house needed a fridge and with the fridge came $160 in best buy bucks. I know none of these vacuums are going to be great, but i’m tight for money and need to find a way to clean my floors so this is the best option i got . Can you all suggest a decent enough vacuum for thick carpeting?

Appreciate your help. I know from previous searches that the hoover tempo gets mentioned, but unfortunately best buy does not carry it.
I am in need of a new vacuum and need some recommendations. I was gifted a $500 giftcard to bestbuy but am willing to add another $100-200 on top of that. I had a Shark Navigator lift away . Have a mix of laminate and carpet with 4 kids and a dog. Not sure if cordless is an option. No issues with allergies either. Any input is greatly appreciated
I’ve been doing analysis on reddit data and was looking at the most recommended vacuum cleaners in r/VacuumCleaners VS other subs. Thought I’d share the results here.
Its part of a side project of mine to play with Reddit data and LLMs. The goal was to create something useful for the community while learning and improving my development skills.
The analysis aims to highlight the most well reviewed vacuum cleaners. It can be taken as a very rough proxy for what’s widely considered the best vacuum cleaners. Hopefully it is a useful data point for anyone overwhelmed by the massive amount of fragmented information out there.
Methodology: For extraction and sentiment analysis, I used the Reddit’s API to scour discussions on vacuum cleaners across all subreddits (filtered for the past year for freshness). I sampled 586 relevant threads and used LLMs to analyze, extract, and categorize opinions from the comments. To identify the product, I used the info in the comment to lookup Amazon. Unfortunately for now the list only shows models available on Amazon (for simplicity’s sake).
For ranking, I calculated the normalized difference and ratio between the no. of positive and negative user sentiments, and used that to determine the final score for ranking.
Caveat: Handling and merging different descriptions, model numbers, abbreviations etc, and associating them with the right variation is non trivial, so its not 100% accurate. Let me know if you spot anything wrong or surprising.
