Dyson, Shark and eufy are all reduced for Black Friday - (The Independent)

Right now, you can really clean up with these early Black Friday deals on vacuum cleaners. Corded, cordless, handheld and robot vacuums from the likes of Shark, Dyson and Eufy have already been reduced, and some have even been slashed to their lowest ever prices. So if you’re in the market for a new vacuum, now’s the time to invest.

You don’t have to go in blind, either. Our expert testers have reviewed the best models, so I’m keeping my eyes peeled for the top offers on IndyBest-approved vacuums ahead of Black Friday. So far, highlights include £100 off Eufy’s robot vacuum cleaner (was £299, now £199, Very.co.uk) and £200 off the Shark stratos cordless vacuum (was £479, now £241, Amazon.co.uk). There’s also big savings on Samsung’s jet 85 pet cordless, down from £480 to just £299 at Argos.co.uk.

Alongside vacuum deals, the rest of the IndyBest team and I are busy continually tracking the standout Black Friday savings on air fryers, mattresses, smartphones, beauty and more.

On the lookout for a robot vacuum cleaner? This deal is worth your attention. In his review of the eufy omni E25, tech critic Steve Hogarty described the vacuum as “the beefy powerhouse of the eufy range”. He added: “More expensive than the X10, it justifies the price difference with a frankly monstrous suction power of 20,000Pa – more than double that of the X10.”

In his full review of the X10 pro omni, our senior tech critic, Alex Lee, also called it “a marvellous machine”. He said it “excels at mopping" and boasts a "generous water tank that requires infrequent refills". Plus, its automated, hands-off approach makes it really convenient.

However, if you're looking for an entry-level robot model, this deal is worth considering.

Emptying your vacuum’s dirt into the bin is never pleasant, but Shark’s cordless clean and empty vacuum can minimise this grim task. It deposits dirt into its own base that you don’t need to empty for up to 30 days, cutting down on that extra mucky job and reducing household dust. The Shark cordless clean and empty is also incredibly light at a meagre 2.65kg, so you’ll be powering through the upstairs and tricky nooks and crannies with ease.

The Shark cordless clean and empty actually took the top spot in our picks of the best Shark vacuum cleaners. Tetser Zoe Griffin said: “For exceptional cleaning on both hard floors and carpet, the Shark auto-detect clean and empty stands out as a truly useful household helper.”

The pro version was chosen as the best cordless vacuum cleaner, with our tester writing: “ While it’s not the most compact or lightweight cleaner, the clever pod system and powerful suction make this a great all-rounder for busy households. It may not have the fancy lasers of other vacuums, but this will effectively clean your home for a fair price – it’s all you need.”
