How we score

Every product on VacuumIQ starts with manufacturer-published specifications and independent editorial research. We normalize those facts into typed fields (suction in Pascals, runtime in minutes, and so on) so products can actually be compared instead of just read one at a time.

From those specs we derive six 0–10 editorial scores — Suction Power, Navigation, Mopping, Convenience, Pet-Hair Performance and Value — shown as a radar chart on every product page. These scores are our editorial judgment, normalized against the range of products in our own catalog; they are clearly labelled as an editorial rating, not a manufacturer spec. When a product's catalog grows, we recompute all scores so comparisons stay fair.

Any spec we couldn't confirm is shown as “—”, never guessed. Amazon prices and availability change constantly, so VacuumIQ sends you to the live listing instead of publishing a stale price.
