Hey Guys,
I am looking to buy a stick vacuum,
But there are too many options,
Just something that isn’t too high-end and is meant for general use.
I don’t have pets or carpet at home, only for long hair and hardwood.
Thinking Ryobi 18V ONE+ HP Stick Vacuum - Tool Only R18XSV9BLK
- because I have the battery.
Any recommendation or something more worth to get it?

Xiaomi. It has the added bonus of updating head office whenever you vacuum, to see how much of a hard worker you are.
and sell the data to US lol~
I was in the same boat: needed general use with 95% hard flooring. I rolled the dice on this Amazon one to replace my Dreame T20, expecting to return it but it's been great! Great suction and doesn't spit out a heap of debris like others. The light at the front is really bright and picks up a ton of dirt you don't see in normal lighting, actually kinda scary how filthy the floor gets haha.

Which cruise?
Yep, should add dreame to the list
I got a dreame and it’s been great
Unless they changed it in last few years, the ryobi was a POS to clean and eventually broke due to having to undo actual screws to clean the head of human long hair.
Do not recommend at all.
Not at all. Mine (bought 2022) is way better than the Dyson I hade before it, managed to clean right up to the skirting. Battery lasts longer and being replaceable means I could clean the whole house in one go without a recharge break.
No screws for emptying, the canister comes out so it is easier to clean. The screw caps to open for cleaning the head are no different to a Dyson.
Only complaint is it no longer stands up right and falls over but I think the kids broke something on it.
I opted for the Ryobi stick vac and it's been pretty good. I'm not as skilled in the vacuuming as my wife is, and she thinks it's good too. We opted for the pack with the 2 batteries and usually go through 1 and a bit do the whole house, which is all floorboards.

What skill level do you have? Does wifey have a Ph.D. in Suction Dynamics?
It doesn't matter what my skill level is it will never be done correctly.
Based on all the upvotes, Dyson is the clear winner, starting from $300+
Or you could get anything else as second best.
Aren't all vacuums brushless except for the ones with a turbo head?
I think in this example brushless refers to the mechanics. Brushless is often more powerful, less battery intensive motors for tools.
I bought the Miele HX2 cat & dog, and hate it. The turbo brush head scratches hardwood floors, no hard floor tool, and the battery doesn't even last one floor (4 rooms). It doesn't pick up anything larger than a pinhead, and if it finds anything hard or sharp, it will go for a ride of several thousand revolutions in the brush head against your floors.
Disassembling it to use it as a hand vac is a nightmare, it's heavy and unwieldy.
Avoid it if it's on your list.
I bought the Miele Triflex HX2. First one didn’t work, returned under warranty which was a pain as David Jones and Miele said it wasn’t their responsibility to process the warranty!?
Replacement arrived. It’s heavy and clunky, a fully charged battery doesn’t last long enough to be practical, and the waste bin isn’t easy to disconnect and empty.
I had a Xiomi that was a fraction of the price, light weight, easy to empty. The battery eventually died but overall was user-friendly and cheap.
LG CordZero, cheaper than Dyson and comes with a spare battery. Happy with mine.
Build quality is much better also, not like the cheap plastic that Dyson uses
Option of aliexpress/Amazon knock off brand - keen to see if any one has one thats lasted more than 6 months.
