The Difference Between Canister and Upright Vacuums

It is not always easy choosing between an upright and canister vacuum cleaner.

A canister vacuum are the type that have wheels and you pull behind you. Upright vacuums are the models that has the motor and cleaning unit all in one, and you push it in front of you. It usually comes down to personal preference as which one you buy.

Most people prefer canister vacuums. They are smaller and more compact than uprights. This makes them lightweight and easy to move around. However, they aren't as powerful as upright models.
