cajun4talk2u need help to clarify doubt about: : What is the best vacuum cleaner for hard floors (and short nape carpet)?
In my home, I have mostly vinyl tile and uncarpeted floors but I do have at least two bedrooms with carpet. Looking for a good vacuum without having to pay an arm and a leg. Also, tell me if bag or bagless, thanks.

The Eureka Mighty Mite Boss is a bag canister. It is recommended for hard floors. I use it on laminate wood, vinyl tile, and area rugs and it works wonderfully. It costs under $ 70 at Wal-Mart. I have always been a big fan of Dyson vacuums but cannot justify paying $ 400 even though they work wonders. I was pleasantly surprised with this Eureka. I high recommend this product.

What do you think? Answer below!
Love my Bissell bagless, $ 45 walmart. Have 2 golden retrievers inside, bissell easily handled hair on linoleum and carpet – clear cannister so you can see when it needs emptying, really sucks.
The answers given are very good suggestions. I worked in service and sales when Hoover was still open. What I would recommend for for is not a particular vac, but can only advise on features to look for and consider when purchasing a new vacuum. First thing I would advise is for your situation is one that has brush roller control (you can turn it off or on for carpet and hard floor). Cheaper vacuums do not have this. Another thing to consider is that you have to know yourself. Often weight of the vac to be able to maneuver and push it around is an issue. All bagless vacs do have some type of filter to either clean and/or replace. Some HEPA filters cannot be rinsed. If you do decide bagless and get a rinsible filter, purchase 2 filters one to use while the other is drying.
I hope this help in your decision
