The most expensive upright sweepers are self-propelled. They are more expensive because you're paying for a transmission on your vacuum cleaner. This also usually adds three to seven pounds to the weight. Vacuum cleaners are self propelled for only one reason - they are hard to push! The reason they are hard to push is because they have height adjusments to help keep the roller from burying itself in the carpet. If set two low, a partial seal is created between the nozzle and your carpet. This cuts off the air flow that carries the dirt into the bag. It also slows the roller brush speed so that the belt will stretch and there is almost no deep cleaning.

If you have a vacuum cleaner with height adjustments, you should set the height for each level of carpet in your home. In our opinion, the easiest and best solution is a vacuum cleaner with a free-floating adjustable nozzle. That way the brush separates the fibers of the carpet, and you don't cut off your air flow. The best vacuum cleaners with a free-floating head feel self-propelled. Want to know?
