Best 2017 Vacuums for Maneuverability and Handling

#1

Maneuverability is one of the most praised traits thanks to swivel steering and lightweight handling, though one reviewer found turning slightly weird.

#2

Maneuverability was a major strength due to the pivoting nozzle and reach, though broad-nozzle tight-space performance was not universally strong.

#3

Handling was context-dependent: the compact body and wheels helped it drag and maneuver well, but bulk and canister movement made it less nimble than cordless options.

#4

Maneuverability was one of the most split areas: many liked the light canister handling, while others disliked the head pivot and side-to-side movement.

#5

Handling was split: multiple reviewers found it light, balanced, compact, or easy to tote, while others found it heavy or awkward in some positions.

#6

Handling is polarized: some reviewers praise smooth castors and gliding, while others find the bulky body awkward in tight spaces.

#7

Handling is one of the most divided areas: reviewers praise smooth gliding and swivel, but also criticize bulk, weight, and lugging effort.

#8

Handling is mixed to weak because the corded head lacks swivel, though one reviewer still found it easy to turn on hard floors.
