The floorhead/capture-nozzle design helps larger debris and swivel movement, but it can trade off crevice performance.
Pros: Packaging quality, Hair‑Wrap / Tangle Resistance
Cons: Carpet — High-Pile Pickup, Headlight and LED lights
Best 2017 Vacuums for Floorhead design
Release year
Floorhead design is mostly praised for automatic plush-carpet response and Pet PowerMate quality, with some bulkiness as a tradeoff.
Pros: Crevice / Groove Pickup (Hard Floors), Hard Floor — Large Debris Intake
Cons: Comparative performance, Odor control
The built-in nozzle was viewed positively as a convenient floorhead/nozzle feature, though the same review noted efficiency limits elsewhere.
Pros: Overall durability/longevity, Storage footprint and upright-stand stability
Cons: Battery and Charging, Suitability for heavy-duty use
The floorhead design helps contain debris and suits hard floors, but the lack of a roller limits carpet depth and some pickup.
Pros: Controls and UI, Support and Reliability
Cons: Filtration / Dust Containment, Low-profile design
The floorhead earned mixed marks: the switchable brush setup helped on floors, but reviewers criticized its pivoting, quality, and need for replacement.
Pros: Kid-friendliness, Controls and UI
Cons: Onboard tool storage, Filtration / Dust Containment
Floorhead design was mixed: reviewers liked the hard-floor performance and transitions, but criticized limited articulation, unclear settings, and large-debris pushing.
Pros: Low-profile design, Overall durability/longevity
Cons: Bag-full indicator, Cordless convenience
Floorhead design is highly dependent on head choice: TurboTeQ and EcoTeQ can perform well, but some heads snowplow or miss larger debris.
Pros: Self-cleaning cycle, Hair Pickup — Hard Floors
Cons: Stair Cleaning, Clogging and debris prevention
