4 Reasons Why Upright Vacuum Cleaners Remain a Popular Choice for Professional Cleaners


Despite so many other options available for commercial cleaning purposes, upright vacuum cleaners remain a popular choice for professional cleaners.

When it comes to upright vacuum cleaners for use in a commercial setting, there is a good choice of excellent, leading brands. Let’s take a look at why so many professionals continue to choose upright models, and discover some of the most popular brands.

High Dust Capacity

Upright vacuum cleaners offer a good volume of dust capacity, which reduces the frequency required for emptying, making them more efficient in everyday use.

Excellent Performance on Large Carpeted Areas

Where there are large areas of carpeted flooring to tackle, an upright vacuum cleaner is by far the preferable choice. In addition, most models will transition between carpeted and hard flooring either with a simple control or automatically.

Reduced Vacuuming Time

The larger head of the upright models covers a greater surface area, which in turn reduces vacuuming time and boosts efficiency.

Powerful Brushes

Upright vacuum cleaners are usually fitted with powerful brushes which get deep into the pile to remove even the most stubborn dirt.

So there we have the main benefits of investing in an upright vacuum cleaner. But which model to choose?

Upright Vacuum Cleaner Buyer’s Guide

Bissell, Lindhaus, Sebo and Truvox are some of the most popular brands of upright vacuum cleaner for commercial use.

The Bissell BGU800 is a lightweight commercial vacuum cleaner offering exceptional high speed power and a large 13 inch wide cleaning head. Brushes are self-adjusting and this combined with the soft wheels of this machine make it ideal for workspaces with varying floor layouts. Deep cleaning is guaranteed whether working on carpet or laminate.


Lindhaus manufactures a range of upright commercial vacuum cleaners including the LS38 battery model which is ideal for flexibility where power outlets are in short supply or there are large areas to cover including lifts and stairs. With its long running time of up to 50 minutes on hard floors and 40 minutes on carpets, this machine charges to full in just 90 minutes. Again this is a model that is perfect for transitioning from one type of flooring to another.

Lindhaus also produces a range of twin motor upright vacuum cleaners in a range
of power levels. All models are powered by Rotafil motors and as a result enjoy very low noise levels. The head is detachable making it easy to deal with blockages and the brush roll barrel is simple to replace. With the first motor driving the brush roller at more than 5,000 rpm, and the second dedicated solely to sucking up debris, this really is a super-performance machine.



Sebo produces two models in the upright vacuum cleaner range. One is the BS360 Upright which features the comfort power head and a hose with a telescopic tube which make all-round professional carpet cleaning a breeze. With its flat to the floor design and auto brush roller shut-off, this is a machine that offers convenient handling and service.

The other model in the Sebo upright range is the Comfort Twin Motor Upright. The twin motor model with its wide head makes it easy to clean wide areas quickly and delivers excellent performance and outstanding reliability.




Truvox produces a battery powered upright machine too. This is a high-performance model, perfect for cleaning awkward spaces such as under desks. Lightweight and able to float evenly over all flooring types, this machine also features a convenient carry handle for ease of transportation. 


The Truvox Valet Single Motor Upright is another high performance commercial cleaner. This one features a self-adjusting brush head which automatically adjusts to the carpet pile height. There’s also a removable extending wand for vacuuming upholstery, stairs and awkward to access areas.
