At Modern Castle we assess vacuums with a series of objective and data-driven testing. We focus on cleaning performance, system sealing, build quality, usability, and maintenance. We gather this data through a battery of tests and assessments to determine the best vacuums.
Below you can see a complete list of all vacuums we’ve tested to data we’ve tested to date.
