What's the best vacuum cleaner in your opinion? (feddit.de)

I'm looking for a vacuum cleaner that doesn't need dust bags and gets its power from the wall socket with a cord. The suction power has high priority for me

Edit: thankyou all for the recommendations, I appreciate it!
I realized, although vacuums with bags are in the daily financing more expensive I guess, they are more reasonable to consider in my case

Where do you say can I get those off-brand bags? I'm living in germany

And what are HEPA filters? Special filters for the vacuum?

I've found off-brand bags on ebay, I believe Amazon has them also (but I seriously avoid buying anything there).

HEPA filters remove very fine particles from the outgoing air. Our White Star model has such a filter, which is easy to replace and seems to make a significant difference.

Our previous vacuum would pick up most of the dirt but also threw a lot of dust into the air. This Miele White Star doesn't do that.

PS: I'm in the US, so your results might vary. Tschüs!
