The best vacuum cleaner deals to shop before the Amazon Prime Day sale ends
If you're on the hunt for a Shark vacuum, you'll want to check out this saving on the brand's anti-hair-wrap cordless vacuum (was £399.99, now £228.99, Amazon.co.uk). But there are plenty of other offers on top-rated brands
As ever, the rest of IndyBest's team of shopping experts and I will be on hand throughout the sale, rounding up the best offers worth shopping. Keep scrolling for the top vacuum offers to snap up now.
IndyBest's team of shopping experts have been covering Amazon Prime Day and other online sales for years. As well as tracking prices and knowing how to spot a good deal from a bad one, we spend the year researching and testing the best vacuum cleaners to bring you recommendations we think you'll love. As ever, within our Amazon Prime Day sale guides, we only ever recommend tried-and-tested products and those from brands we trust.
The IndyBest team have reviewed countless Shark vacuums over the years, and they almost always make it into our guides to the best vacuums. For Prime Day, you can save an impressive £170 on this cordless stick model. With 60 minutes of run time, Shark's signature anti-hair wrap technology and four attachments (from a crevice tool to a pet tool), it's an excellent choice for homes with four-legged friends.
This advanced model is the most powerful vacuum in Dyson's V8 range, so it should be able to suck up even the finest bits of dirt and dust. IndyBest reviewer Siobhan Grogan tested the similar V8 absolute, and was impressed by its quiet yet strong suction, so we'd expect much of the same from this advanced model. Right now, there's more than 30 per cent off the price but this deal won't last forever, as the Prime Day sale ends tonight.
This 25 per cent saving on Shark's handheld pet vacuum isn't Prime exclusive, so you can hoover it up regardless of whether you have a membership. When we reviewed it, our tester recommended the classic CH950UK for small clean-ups, rather than the whole house or car cleaning. Nonetheless, it 'sucked up all the dust in a room in minutes', they praised, and picked up an 'alarming amount of hair from [their] deep-pile carpets', too.
Topping our list of the best robot vacuum cleaners, the Eufy X10 Pro Omni is a truly hands-off device. It vacuums, mops, empties its own dustbin, refills its own water tank, avoids obstacles and even washes and dries its own mopping pads. Tech critic Steve Hogarty was impressed by its cleaning abilities. 'The mopping function is excellent. It doesn't just drag a damp mop pad around, it actually scrubs the floors, helping get rid of dried coffee stains.'
The best car vacuum cleaner has nearly 40 per cent off at Amazon. 'While it's larger than a typical handheld, its flexible wand and motorised pet tool make it much easier to manoeuvre inside a car than you might expect', our tester noted. They found it 'easily tackled a boot full of golden retriever hair' and 'made light work of gritty footwells'.
Now reduced by nearly £250, Eufy's X8 pro robot vacuum cleaner takes the hassle out of cleaning your home. 'There's no doubt Eufy's X8 has made my cleaning chores much simpler,' said our tester, Sarah. 'It's one less job I need to do and, as a busy parent, it has become a huge asset in the daily battle against dirt and debris.' With app connectivity, a quiet but powerful design, and expert sensors that swerve obstacles, this is a good vacuum at a great price.
Shark's clean & empty cordless vacuum cleaner was awarded the top spot in our tests of the best Shark vacuum cleaners. Our tester Zoe Griffin praised the cleaner's power, writing 'for a cordless vacuum cleaner, the suction on this is truly impressive – it easily tackled pet hair, dirt and debris on hard floors and carpets for up to 60 minutes.' Right now, it has an impressive 47 per cent off.
Dubbed the best for flexibility in our guide to car vacuums, this cordless Henry model has been reduced by 20 per cent. Though it hasn't been designed specifically for car use, the quick pro was found to be ideal for reaching under seats and into footwells. 'What makes it extra appealing is the pod system, which traps dust inside for a mess-free, allergen-safe empty,' said our reviewer. 'If your car interior gets as much traffic as your home, this one's a worthy multitasker.'
A very similar vacuum cleaner to this one landed the top spot in our review of the best handheld vacuum cleaners, where our IndyBest tester praised it for being 'absolutely merciless on pet hair'. It's lightweight at only 1.5kg, bagless for easy emptying, and runs for 20 minutes on full charge. Plus, it has an LED spotlight to highlight hidden dirt in dark corners and crevices. Its price fluctuates between around £170 and £110, but this is a good deal that gets you 21 per cent off this Prime Day.
In our review of the best cordless vacuum cleaners, Vax's homepro detect pet design was praised for how easy it was to use – and now it's been slashed in price by an impressive 46 per cent at Amazon, which is the cheapest I've seen it. The gadget features 'a large, comfortable handle, labelled attachments and large chunky buttons', our tester noted, adding that its performance was excellent. 'The vacuum has LED lights to reveal hard-to-see dirt', they said, while the flexi-wand was 'fantastic for cleaning under furniture'.
The Eufy omni C20 robovac is down to its lowest ever price, with almost 40 per cent off during the Prime Day sale. Eufy is one of our favourite robot vacuum brands, with the X10 pro omni earning the top spot in tech writer Steve Hogarty 's round-up. This model has slightly less suction power but still has most of the features we've come to expect of robot vacuums, including a self-emptying station and mop pads that automatically clean and dry themselves in the base.
This landed a spot in our guide to the best handheld vacuum, excelling at cleaning up pet hair, thanks to its serious power. Our tester noted that 'it tackled dirt, gravel and pet hair without breaking a sweat'. The 'mini motorised tool was a particular highlight. It's small enough to get into awkward spots but strong enough to lift embedded fluff from fabric,' they added. The nifty tool now has 20 per cent shaved off the price.
For quick and easy clean-ups, consider investing in Shark's wandvac, which is now at one of its lowest ever prices with this Amazon Prime Day deal. In our review of the handheld vacuum, our tester praised its lightweight and compact design, which makes it easy to clean high or in hard-to-reach areas. And if you bag it in the sale, you'll save just shy of £50.
Our IndyBest reviewer Zoe Griffin said this was the best corded model for cleaning upholstery. She found that it took seconds to convert it into a handheld vacuum cleaner, too. 'Having only used battery-operated handhelds in the car before, it was a real eye-opener to witness the power of this corded Vax on our mucky car seats,' she wrote. With this deal, you can get it for almost 25 per cent off.
This Amazon basics vacuum is a bargain at full price, so any discount is an added bonus. The cost has been dropped by 16 per cent for Prime Day, although its recent discount history suggests it could fall as low as £19.40 this week if you keep an eye on it. Our writer Zoe crowned it as the best budget buy in our corded vacuum round-up, finding it 'provides a decent amount of power for the price'. It's small, but this makes it a great fit for 'those fiddly and annoying messes that happen daily when you have children or pets'.

Embat appoints leadership team for UK and Ireland
Embat, a leading European financial management and treasury platform, is accelerating its expansion across Europe with the appointment of a new leadership team for the UK and Ireland. 0 Building on its strong European presence, Embat has a growing footprint in the UK, is trusted by over 300 corporate clients and manages more than $200 billion in annual transactions. Its customer base includes Dojo, Arena Racing, PetLab Co, Cabify, Wallapop, and Fever | DICE. Embat also partners closely with EY, PwC, Deloitte, KPMG, SAP, Microsoft, and Oracle NetSuite. Theo Wasserberg, Head of UK and Ireland, will lead Embat's market strategy, customer partnerships and team growth. A seasoned executive with a background in enterprise software, Theo brings more than five years of experience at SAP, where he worked closely with ERP customers on banking and reconciliation solutions. Following the completion of an MBA at INSEAD, he went on to lead strategy for a top SAP partner, helping CFOs navigate digital transformation across Europe. 'If it still takes your team three days to find your cash position, something is broken within your finance function,' said Theo Wasserberg. 'Embat delivers the automation and real-time visibility that corporate finance teams need to stop fighting fires and start driving value. I'm excited to lead this expansion and bring a smarter approach for finance teams in the UK.' He is joined by Quique Fernandez, Country Launcher & Head of Treasury Transformation, who brings deep treasury domain expertise and will lead product localisation, solution design, and client delivery for the region. Quique previously held senior treasury and payments leadership roles at high-growth firms including Northern Data Group and Teya, where he focused on building scalable treasury functions across cash visibility, FX, automation, and intercompany finance. 'Finance teams have been promised digital transformation for years, but many are still stuck with legacy systems, repetitive tasks and manual work,' said Quique Fernandez. 'At Embat, we're combining cutting-edge infrastructure with real-world treasury expertise to give mid-market companies the tools they need to scale. I'm excited to build the foundations of our UK platform with our partners and clients.' Founded in 2021, Embat successfully closed a Series A funding round last year. Its cloud-native platform empowers finance teams at mid-sized and large enterprises to manage all aspects of treasury and accounting in real-time. This includes automated bank reconciliation, live cash monitoring and forecasting and strong anti-fraud tools. It was one of the first companies to partner with Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform. Its in-house AI analyst, TellMe, acts like a real-time team member - flagging anomalies, predicting cash flow patterns, and offering data-backed recommendations - while keeping humans in control where it matters most. 'Finance teams deserve more than visibility - they need clarity, control, and confidence,' said Antonio Berga, co-CEO and founder of Embat. 'The UK is a priority market for us, and our expansion here reflects the urgent need for tools that are purpose-built for modern finance leaders. We're proud to deliver a platform that turns finance into a strategic advantage.'

Mastercard unveils A2A Protect in the UK
Mastercard is rolling out A2A Protect in the UK, a new service designed to help banks protect consumers from account-to-account payment fraud and resolve disputes. 2 Mastercard A2A Protect will initially focus on the most acute needs, such as Authorised Push Payment fraud, providing a combination of preventative measures, consumer protections and a process to recover funds. Subsequent phases will establish a process for recovering funds across a broader range of scenarios, including where goods and services have been paid for. In the UK last year £592 million was lost to Account-to-Account fraud. The Payment Systems Regulator has also taken steps to address the concern, introducing a 50:50 liability model for APP fraud. Mastercard says A2A Protect will deliver an industry-wide standardised fraud and loss reporting mechanism alongside a simple framework and set of multilateral standards addressing transactional and fraud protection issues, as well as goods and services protection issues, where relevant for consumers. The product also features a uniform procedure for banks to resolve disputes and recover funds, across multiple use cases via Mastercard's existing centralised platform. 'With Fast A2A comes fast fraud, and we owe it to consumers to have their back. Mastercard A2A Protect delivers meaningful benefits to every participant in a transaction.' says Jorn Lambert, chief product officer at Mastercard. 'It lowers operational costs for financial institutions through standardised real-time fraud insights and streamlined dispute resolution, and all participants benefit from quicker and more predictable outcomes.'

Homemade scones in peril at National Trust cafes as job cuts loom
Visitors to some National Trust cafes could be forced to go without homemade scones as proposed job cuts are poised to hit kitchen staff. The beloved British bakes could be shipped in from a central source rather than being freshly baked in cafe kitchens in less profitable venues, leaving customers fearing for the traditional treat's quality, according to reports in The Times. It comes as the Trust is set to axe around six per cent of its staff – approximately 550 jobs – in a bid to reduce costs and find £26m in savings. In a statement, the charity blamed the recent employer's National Insurance increase and National Living Wage rise, which they said had added more than £10m to their annual wage bill. A spokesperson for the charity said the changes, if adopted, would affect just ten per cent of its cafes. 'The proposed changes would affect less than 10 per cent of our cafés, all of which are smaller outlets where rising costs are making it increasingly difficult to be financially sustainable,' they told The Independent. 'We would still have food and drink available at these cafés, however, and in more than 90 per cent of our cafés there would be no change to what we offer.' The charity, which cares for over 500 historic houses, gardens, castles, and natural spaces in the UK, previously said that it was struggling with rising costs, despite growing visitor numbers. 'To meet our aims and create a sustainable future for the organisation in a tough financial environment, our first step must be to ensure we are financially strong and properly resourced for the future,' they said. 'Although demand and support for our work are growing with yearly increases in visitors and donations; increasing costs are outstripping this growth.' The charity said that the proposed changes will enable it to 'keep on caring for and championing our shared historic and natural environment in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, long into the future'.
