10 best vacuum cleaners for asthma and allergy sufferers

We start our review with the most inexpensive, but very effective Shivaki SVC 1748 water filter vacuum cleaner.Despite its affordable price, it has all the criteria necessary for high-quality cleaning. The model is equipped with a large tank for water filtration (3.8 l), an additional HEPA barrier and has a suction power that is simply excellent for products of such a low price category - 410 W. In addition, buyers noted the low noise level during operation (in the data sheet this figure does not exceed 68 dB), reliable assembly and high quality of the materials used (there is no specific smell of plastic, which many other budget devices “sin” with).

The “weak side” of the product, some users considered the need to wash the dust container and replace the water in the filter after each cleaning. However, this feature is inherent in all structures of this type, and cannot objectively be considered a disadvantage. Based on the combination of positive characteristics, we can confidently call Shivaki SVC 1748 the best vacuum cleaner in terms of price-quality ratio.

The Russian brand VITEK is considered one of the most popular in the domestic market of household appliances. And, although most of its products are manufactured in China, the democratic pricing policy and the diversity of the model range make vacuum cleaners of this brand very popular among buyers. VITEK VT-1833 with an aqua filter and a turbo brush in the kit scrupulously removes small debris from most types of surfaces, and a five-stage trapping system does not give dust and bacteria any chance to escape.The performance of this unit is also quite decent (especially for such a low price) - 400 W with a power consumption of 1800 W. Of the pleasant "bonuses", the product provides for automatic rewinding of the power cord, vertical parking and a mode control (on the case).

The vacuum cleaner does a good job of keeping the apartment clean. Feedback from the owners of the VITEK VT-1833 is mostly positive, although there are complaints about the quality of the plastic and the low strength of the structure. But, since the model helps to effectively eliminate most of the causative agents of allergic reactions in the apartment, we considered it right to include it in our TOP of the best.

Vacuum cleaner ARNICA Bora 4000 can also be classified as a device recommended for use by people prone to allergies. This traditional dry vacuum cleaner captures dust with a patented DWS filtration system that eliminates up to 99.9% of fine particles.

Of the additional characteristics, a large number of nozzles (5 pcs.), A reliable reinforced hose with a guaranteed service life of up to 10 years, and the possibility of air aromatization deserve attention.

Customers liked the ease of maintenance of the device - the design can be easily disassembled and washed, and the absence of costs for consumables increases the efficiency of the model.The commentators attributed only a loud hum during operation to the “cons”, but this does not affect the effectiveness of the cleaning process in any way. In general, the Turkish Bora 4000 fully copes with the task, effectively cleans the house of dust and dirt, and improves the hygiene of the room atmosphere.

Not every manufacturer of upright vacuum cleaners has models with an aquafilter in its assortment. Most often, such products belong to cyclone units, so they are rarely chosen for cleaning rooms where there are allergies or asthmatics. However, the developers of REMEZair AquaStream S managed to successfully combine compact dimensions, maneuverability and a high degree of capture. This is achieved thanks to a water filter and an effective HEPA filter that traps fine particles. Simultaneous mopping and dust collection gives a perfect result - the dirt is not smeared, and the floors become really clean.

The long bristle brush contains inserts of hard bristles, and this increases the cleaning efficiency by a third. The vacuum cleaner provides automatic self-cleaning of the brush, which allows allergy sufferers to avoid even minimal contact with dust. The device operates in 3 power modes, allowing you to choose the best for various types of surfaces. Batteries last for 20-25 minutes of operation, depending on the mode. Many buyers also appreciated the voice assistant. The only remark is that occasionally, when meeting with an obstacle, it leaves droplets of muddy water on the floor.

The representative of the professional line of the famous German brand KARCHER DS 6 Premium Mediclean was developed specifically for cleaning places with increased requirements for sanitary standards.

As a dust collector, the product uses a 2-liter aquafilter, already traditional for anti-allergenic vacuum cleaners, which allows you to thoroughly process large areas in one cleaning cycle and traps up to 99.95% of suspended particles. Another characteristic feature of the device is its low power consumption - with a consistently high suction power, the power consumption is only 650 watts.

In their comments, buyers highlighted good suction power, maneuverability and functionality (the product is ideal for cleaning hard floors, carpets, mattresses and upholstered furniture).

The Italian Polti FAV30 vacuum cleaner is a unique example of household appliances that allows you to achieve the highest results in the fight for the cleanliness of floors and air. In addition to dry cleaning, the model provides the possibility of treating surfaces with a stream of hot air, which guarantees the neutralization of dust mites and other harmful microorganisms that cause asthma attacks or allergies. When connected to the design of a steam disinfector, you can effectively clean mattresses, upholstered furniture, children's toys and other "favorite" habitats of antigen carriers at home. No less justified is the use of a vacuum cleaner for ordinary dry cleaning - a water filter with a capacity of 1.8 liters reliably retains all collected dirt, preventing them from entering the air.

Unfortunately, such good results are achieved only if a large amount of electricity is used. And, although the manufacturers claim that the installation of a new engine helped to improve this indicator, the power consumption of the steam generator is as much as 2450 W, which is much higher than that of all devices presented in the rating.
