January 16, 2025 - 4 min read

Searching for a new stick vacuum? Whether it’s replacing a current stick vacuum that has simply run out of steam, or upgrading an old barrel vacuum to enjoy cordless convenience, chances are we’re all looking for the same thing: an easier cleaning routine!

That means choosing the right model that meets all your needs – one packing the muscle and versatility to handle everything from everyday spills to complete, whole-house cleans with ease.

“If you’re looking for an all-in-one floorcare solution that will go the extra mile for you, without breaking the bank, you can’t go wrong with a top-rated model from the likes of Bosch, such as the Bosch Unlimited 7 Cordless Vacuum White,” says Nick Trajkovski, The Good Guys Buyer – Floorcare. “This agile, all-rounder vacuum consistently scores five-star reviews from our customers for its flexible features, compact design and reliable performance.”

Ready to shop for that new cleaning companion? To help make sure you don’t spend your hard-earned funds on a new vacuum cleaner that isn’t up to the job, Nick weighs in on the most common mistakes people make when choosing a new cordless cleaner. Plus, we explore how the Bosch Unlimited 7 Cordless Vacuum White ticks every box for a fast and furious clean of all your messiest surfaces!

Mistake #1: Too hard to manoeuvre

Why it matters: Nothing makes those whole-house cleans feel like the worst household chore than a vacuum cleaner that’s too heavy and awkward to heft comfortably around your home. Choosing a nimble model with a more ergonomic and flexible design can help prevent wrist fatigue and achy backs.

“Test out the vacuum in-store before you buy to ensure you’ll be OK navigating it around your furniture or carrying it up and down stairs,” suggests Nick Trajkovski.

The Bosch difference: Save the heavy lifting for the gym! The Bosch Unlimited 7 Cordless Vacuum White glides across hard and soft surfaces with its lightweight 2.9kg design. What’s more, the bendable Flex Tube feature lets you reach effortlessly into those places where dust loves to hide (hello, sofa!) without crouching down.

“The Nozzle Foot Release is also great news for people with back issues or who vacuum daily; it allows you to detach the nozzle from the tube with just one tap of your foot,” says Nick. 


Mistake #2: Not enough suction

Why it matters: Don’t compromise performance just for the convenience of having a cordless model that may not be up to the task – especially not if you have hair-shedding pets or allergy sufferers under your roof.

The Bosch difference: When it comes to having enough power under the hood, you can always rely on this German-engineered brand. Case in point: the Bosch Unlimited 7 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner with its highly efficient TurboSpin Motor. It operates at up to 66,000 rpm for impressive suction on everything from hard flooring to plush carpet. Plus, Bosch’s free 10-year motor guarantee ensures a clean you can trust.

Customers love the powerful suction in the Bosch stick vacuum:

“Amazing suction and cleaning power, the amount of super fine dust it picks up still amazes us.” – Michael, The Good Guys customer reviewer.

 

Mistake #3: Ignoring the latest tech

Why it matters: Not doing your research before you hit the shops can mean missing out on some of the innovative new stick vacuum features that can greatly improve your cleaning experience.

The Bosch difference: The Bosch Unlimited 7 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner packs in so many practical features for a more convenient, better clean. You can pause vacuuming to take a call while the Easy Parking Clip holds the vacuum in place. Need to blitz those dusty shelves? Just use the Quick Stand feature to keep the nozzle and tube standing by themselves while you use the handheld attachment.

Tired of dust lurking in dark corners? Bosch’s powerful built-in LED lights help you spot dirt and dust you never knew were there for a deeper clean. You’ll wonder how you ever cleaned without them!

Mistake #4: Poor battery life

Why it matters: Settling for a stick vacuum with a limited battery life not only derails your cleaning routine while you wait around for it to juice up again on the charger, but it can also impact the life of your appliance. 

The Bosch difference: The Bosch Unlimited 7 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner uses a best-in-class lithium-ion battery that powers through up to 40-minutes of runtime*. Tradies love it too! The battery is compatible with a host of Bosch 18V power tools and gardening devices. Smart!

Mistake #5: Forgetting about attachments

Why it matters: Stick vacuums aren’t just for floors. A versatile model will mean you’re not spending extra money on extra cleaning appliances that will clutter your cupboard.
The Bosch difference: With seven easy-to-swap handy nozzles and attachments, the Bosch Unlimited 7 is a great stick vacuum cleaner for all corners of the house. Tackle everything from hard floors to carpets with the soft roller brush, then effortlessly switch to handheld mode. Use the brush nozzle to clear crumbs from the couch after movie night, or attach the crevice tool to get into tight spots between car seats after a day at the beach. For a flawless finish, the innovative flexible crevice nozzle reaches those dustballs behind the bedframe you thought you’d never get to.

Mistake #6: Choosing high maintenance

Why it matters: If emptying your vacuum cleaner and keeping it running are adding unnecessary fuss to your floor routine, chances are you’ll find yourself avoiding the chore even more!

The Bosch difference: With this Bosch vacuum cleaner, you won’t need to learn how to change a Bosch vacuum bag or wash the filters. Low maintenance and hygienic, it lets you empty the dust bin with ease, thanks to the RotationClean feature.
