These products are hand-picked by our team to help make shopping easier. We may receive payments from third parties for sharing this content and when you purchase through links in this article. Product prices and offer details are not assured, and should be confirmed independently with the retailer. Learn more Touted as the ' world's most powerful cordless stick vacuum ', the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra might just be the suckiest appliance on the market. And as someone whose floors are constantly riddled with dog hair (as well as my own), I couldn't have been more excited to put it to the test. Having tested a variety of vacuum cleaners in my job, I've learned that strong suction power isn't all it's cracked up to be and there's definitely more to a good buy than big numbers. Samsung's new cordless stick vac packs long battery life, auto empty, a bunch of cleaner heads and accessories and a stylish and surprisingly slim design. And for anyone who's chronically attached to their phone, the vacuum is compatible with the SmartThings app so the appliance can actually let you know when you're getting a phone call or text message. Check out our first impressions of Samsung's latest cordless stick vacuum cleaner below. 30-SECOND REVIEW Tried and Tested by Tahnee-Jae Lopez-Vito, Senior Shopping Writer If I could describe the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra in one word, it would definitely be efficient. While it comes with a higher price tag and a few 'non-essential' bells and whistles, it cleans different types of gross dry and wet messes exceptionally well, particularly on hard floors, and doesn't require much effort to use, pick up dirt and maintain. The stick vac also lets you customise the gadget in a variety of ways, and everything is easy to assemble and take apart. HOW WE TESTED THE SAMSUNG BESPOKE AI JET ULTRA STICK VACUUM At checkout, it's our mission to help you make informed shopping decisions. To ensure you buy the right product at the best price, we rigorously test products so you don't have to. As well as sorting through mountains of consumer reviews, product manuals and conducting thorough product research, our team of expert writers puts each product we review through a series of hands-on tests to ensure we give you honest feedback about its performance and whether it's worth your hard-earned money. DESIGN Samsung's AI Jet Ultra Stick Vacuum wins the beauty crown with its stylish and sleek design, while the slim build makes it a decent contender for shoppers wanting something small-space friendly. It's also self standing so you don't need to mount the appliance to the wall, and the cradle is a convenient fix for the accessories. Aside from the all-in-one charging dock and auto-empty station, the Samsung stick vacuum includes: • Active dual brush • Slim LED brush+ • Pet tool+ • Combination and long reach crevice tool • Spray spinning sweeper For our particularly tall readers, the pole can be extended just like the crevice tool. The box also includes antibacterial reusable pads and disposable wet pads for the sweeper, plus three dust bags. I was mostly excited to try the flex tool, which essentially works like an extra arm that can bend up to 90 degrees to help give you 'better aim'. I really like how it can be used with different cleaner heads but honestly it felt flimsy and made the vacuum harder to control. If having a bendy stick vacuum is on top of your list, our checkout editor Melody raved about the flexibility of Shark's PowerDetect Clean & Empty Vacuum. (It similarly has an auto-empty function, decent battery life and retails for $700 cheaper.) The two 'main cleaner' heads – aka the active dual brush and slim LED brush+ — are the only tools compatible with the AI mode and each work incredibly well. I'm an especially big fan of using the slim LED brush+ to light up the monsters under the bed, a task which surely makes vacuuming as one of the most-hated chores. Clean Station I absolutely love how the HEPA vacuum boasts a self-empty feature, similar to many robot vacuum cleaners and new premium cordless vacuum cleaners. It's particularly fantastic if you want to minimise your exposure to dust. The dust bag is easy to change and fits up to two litres of debris. When it's time to repurchase, Samsung usually offers five disposable bags which can last a while even if you vacuum daily. The dustbin can be manually emptied, but I found the debris got so tightly packed that I had to dig deep into the container. It's much easier to leave the cleaning to the self emptying station, especially if you're like me and want to prevent airborne dust particles triggering any allergies. BATTERY LIFE The Bespoke Jet AI Ultra offers up to 100 minutes of cordless cleaning, which is great compared to many other options on the market – including the popular Dyson Gen5detect Absolute which retails at a similar price point ($1549 RRP) and lasts up to 70 minutes. If you want to sneak in extra runtime, this stick vacuum has a detachable battery design which lets you swap in another fully charged pack (sold separately, of course). Since it's already quite powerful on the lower settings, I could get away with cleaning all the rooms in one go and have enough power leftover to go over my desk and any awkward spots without having to recharge. HOW WELL DOES THE SAMSUNG VACUUM CLEAN? To give the AI-powered stick vac a run for its money, I opened Pandora's box (aka a gross and decently filled dust bag from my robot vacuum). And it's fair to say I immediately nerded out. I was surprised at how powerful the lowest setting ended up being, and how I didn't need to ramp up to a higher mode when dealing with the meatiest dust balls. If it wasn't a loan unit shared by a long list of tech reviewers, I could've vacuumed my bed with the pet tool+ at the end of a deep clean and had battery to spare. Although I did test it out on my couch and the handheld vac picked up the small pet hairs pretty easily. Samsung's new stick vacuum also introduces cleaning mode 2.0 to help avoid wasting unnecessary energy. It works similar to the auto mode on other cordless units but rather than automatically adjusting the settings simply based on whether it's on carpet or not, or how dirty the surface is, the Bespoke Jet AI Ultra changes the power level and brush speed depending on the environment (including if it's against a wall corner, on short or long pile carpet, or even picked off the ground and not being used at a particular moment). It's worth mentioning you also do need to register the stick vac on Samsung's SmartThings App to activate the new and improved AI features (plus any future updates). I actually didn't find it that much more useful than a regular auto setting, and there are mixed reviews online where people have had some trouble on carpet. When it comes to washing floors, the spray spinning sweeper is a nice little alternative to the traditional mop. It lets you control when the appliance releases water, which makes it much more easier to control how wet the surface gets compared to some other wet dry vacuums. In saying that, I prefer this tool for refreshing tiles and hardwood rather than as a complete replacement of a mop and bucket. Otherwise, you will need to make sure you're washing the pads after every clean (or repurchasing new packs if you prefer the disposable option) to prevent bacteria and mould making a new home under your vacuum. The built-in water tank also fits up to 150ml water before it needs to be refilled, which is a significantly smaller capacity to many cordless wet dry vacuums and robot vacuums. HOW MUCH IS THE SAMSUNG BESPOKE AI JET ULTRA IN AUSTRALIA? The Bespoke AI Jet Ultra retails for $1699 and is available from Samsung's online store and the usual leading retailers such as The Good Guys and Appliances Online. IS THE SAMSUNG BESPOKE AI JET ULTRA WORTH BUYING? Given the fact many brands are charging a small fortune for home appliances, I love how this vacuum cleaner comes with a variety of easily adjustable attachments to better tailor each clean. There's no trigger button to leave my hands feeling tired after a long cleaning session, and all the controls and attachments are super easy to use. Unlike some other vacuums I've tried, the Bespoke AI Jet Ultra does a great job of effortlessly picking up different types of debris without having to go over the same mess multiple times. The mop attachment doesn't over saturate the floors too much, either. Plus, you have total control of how much water is released – something which I wish was more common in wet dry vacuums. On the downside, the unit is pricey and most of the AI features don't add that much to what other vacuums pretty much already do. But it still is a great two-in-one vacuum and mop, especially if you're interested in investing in a self emptying model. *Product has been loaned by Samsung for a 100 per cent independent, honest review.

Amazon Deals of the Day: Our Favorite Budget Vacuum Is 20% Off
Amazon sells a vast array of products, with new ones arriving daily across many categories, including home essentials, tech and furniture. Lucky for us, the retail giant loves cutting prices as much as it loves adding new products. However, deciding which offers are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job, but we've done the heavy lifting, hand-picking the top markdowns from the bunch. Today, one of our favorite budget vacuums is at an even lower price, and the Eufy Security SoloCam S220 is half off for Prime members. Two Anker charging cables are also available for less than $10. Having a solid, lightweight and powerful vacuum is pretty important. And our favorite budget vacuum, the Levoit LVAC-200, ticks all the boxes. It has 180 watts of power and easily cleans up dust, pet hair and more. The vac is cordless and has a runtime of up to 50 minutes, allowing you to clean more than one room without being tethered to an outlet. Best of all, it only weighs a little over 6 pounds, so it's easy to transport. This vacuum even has LED lights on the front to easily spot dust and dirt. Plus, it has a five-stage filtration system to trap allergens and other particulates. This vacuum is normally $200, which is a great price for a cordless vacuum. But the cost just got even better with a 20% discount, reducing the total to $160. If you're vacationing or simply want to keep an eye on your home while running a few errands, an outdoor security camera is essential. This Eufy outdoor security camera has a wire-free design and is super easy to set up. The camera supports 2K video for a clear view of what's happening outside your home, and night vision allows you to see every detail in the dark. The built-in AI can also distinguish between people and random objects. Custom security zones can even be set to get alerts only when there's motion where it actually matters. And it has an IP67 rating, so it won't get destroyed if it starts raining. This camera normally costs $130, but Prime members will get a 50% price cut for a record low of $65. With all the devices we have, it seems like we never have enough cables to charge them. And they're never long enough to reach. These two Anker USB-C cables are 6 feet long, which means you won't have to stick closely to an outlet while your phone is charging. You can easily use them from the couch or your bed. Plus, they're made of sturdy, double-braided nylon with a 5,000-bend lifespan, so they won't break easily either. They also support 60W fast charging. One cable usually costs $7 -- and that's for the 1-foot length. But right now, you can get two 6-foot cables for just $1 more. This means each cable costs just $4. With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET has combed through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer, and we've gathered the best deals for you to check out.

B&M is selling a dupe of powerful Dyson gadget for £450 less – it's handheld, easy to store & detects dust automatically
WHILE you may have survived the high pollen season, your home can be another trigger for hayfever. But thanks to this B&M gadget, you no longer have to worry about dust in your home. The bargain retailer is selling a cleaning gadget that will leave your space sparkling without draining your wallet. This handy buy is cheaper than ever, and it's even a dupe of a high-end vacuum. The Blaupunkt Powerforce Anti-Tangle 25.9V Vacuum Cleaner is now available for 20% off. Reduced from £99 to just £79, this vacuum is said to "unleash the power of clean". Product details Manufacturers broke down all the handy features of the cleaning gadget. "Featuring cutting-edge technology like a digital touch control display, anti-tangle technology, and auto dust sensor, this vacuum is a bargain hunter's dream come true," they said. It also includes "a powerful lithium ion battery" which provides up to 50 minutes of run time. The 28KPA suction power helps you to tackle dirt and dust "with ease". "Plus, enjoy the convenience of four power modes, compact handheld conversion, and wall mount storage," the description read. "Say goodbye to allergies and hello to a cleaner home." Sun tests world's thinnest vacuum at Dyson HQ – and 'PencilVac' is SAS of cleaning The cordless vacuum can also turn into a compact handhled device and can even been mounted for wall storage. Choose between four power modes: Auto, Eco, Mid, and Max. Dyson gadget The B&M buy is similar to the Dyson V15 Detect Absolute cordless vacuum, which is currently listed for £529.99. This high-end alternative is said to offer "more suction power to the floor than any other cordless vacuum". The Dyson vacuum features 240 Air Watts for suction, with a run time of 60 minutes. How to save money at B&M Shoppers have saved hundreds of pounds a year by using B&M's scanner app. The scanner lets you see if an item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop floor label. Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift. The app is free to download off the B&M Stores mobile app via Google Play or the Apple App Store. According to one ex-B&M manager, you'll want to visit your local branch at 10am on a Wednesday too. Here's how you can join the B&M bargain hunt: Download the B&M app for free on any smartphone with an App Store or Google Play. Once you've installed it on your device, click on the option labelled "more" on the bottom, right-hand side of the app home page. You'll then find an option that says "barcode scanner". Click on this and you'll open a camera screen. Use the camera to hover over the barcode of the product you wish to check. If the price comes up as lower, take it to the cash desk and it will automatically scan at the lower price. You don't need to sign up to the B&M app to use the barcode scanner. While it has a slightly longer battery life, this gadget is similar to the B&M version in that it has a hair de-tangling feature and a dust detector sensor. It also helps to identify any overlooked dust by illuminating it and boasts 99.99% advanced filtration. More on cleaning gadgets And Amazon is selling a window-cleaning gadget slashed from £80 to just £46. Plus, Dyson has reduced the price of its V10 vacuum cleaner. Aldi is selling a no-effort household gadget that cuts cleaning time in half. Shoppers can also pick up another no-effort cleaning gadget that's £500 less than a pricier version. Aldi has a similar vacuum available for just £44, and it also rivals a Dyson product.
