I'm lucky enough to live in a rent-controlled apartment in San Francisco, but along with the price comes a lot of sacrifices. My apartment was last updated 15 years ago, including the carpet. Through those years it has seen more than 10 different roommates and an endless number of late-night parties. Needless to say, my carpet isn't exactly the kind you want to walk barefoot on. Although it has seen better days, I try my absolute best to keep it as clean as possible. There's only one device that has withstood the task — this powerful Dyson Ball Multi-Floor Upright Vacuum ($290, originally $305).

When I first moved in, I took an old hand-me-down vacuum from my parents; it was probably even older than the carpet. Every time I used it, it felt like I was still seeing leftover particles and hairs that it couldn't pick up, and I knew I needed something a lot more powerful. Before I even started my search, countless people told me Dyson is the best of the best when it comes to heavy-duty cleaning needs. There are several models ranging between $200 and $500, and though the price tags scared me, I figured it was worth it. In an effort to make sure I got the most for my money, I looked to Amazon. The site has a large community of customers that leave in-depth reviews — and it's currently running an October Prime Day promotion with discounts on this vacuum and tons of other products.

What officially sold me on my vacuum was its 4.4 star ranking with over 2,000 positive reviews. It's a small, lightweight design, clocking in at only 12 pounds. Plus, its tiny shape is easy to fit in my hall closet. In addition to cleaning my floors, it also features a self-adjusting cleaner head that I can get into corners with, use on my bathroom tile floors, and even to reach my ceiling. My favorite feature: the emptying bin. Instead of fussing around with dusty bags, I simply place it over my trash can and press the release button.
After owning this vacuum for several years, I can easily say I'll never switch to anything else. It was worth every penny to make sure my carpet is as clean as it possibly can be, and I've never been disappointed.
