I review vacuum cleaners for a living, and there's a £30 model arriving in Lidl this Sunday that I'd actually recommend

Lidl is bringing a number of household cleaning products to its middle aisle this week, including a 2-in-1 vacuum from Beldray. It arrives in stores this Sunday and will cost just £29.99, making it a very tempting middle-aisle find.

Beldray is a reliable yet affordable household brand, with several of its models earning strong reviews. In fact, the Beldray Airfinity earned four stars in our full review last year and subsequently made our shortlist for the T3 Awards 2026.

The model arriving at Lidl features cyclonic technology and can quickly convert into a handheld vacuum, which isn't bad at all for a vacuum costing just £30. I've also had a look around, and the same model is priced at £39.99 at Robert Dyas and Amazon, so you're getting a lower price than normal too.

Now, I want to be clear that you shouldn't expect the same performance you'd get from one of the best vacuum cleaners. There are a few compromises here, including a relatively small 600ml dustbin and the fact it's corded. The build also looks a little on the cheaper side, which isn't exactly surprising given the price.

However, one thing that really stands out to me is its 600W power, which is impressive for any vacuum, let alone one that costs just £30. You also get a spare washable filter, as well as a crevice tool and brush tool for more versatile cleaning.

Again, don't expect this to deliver the same experience as a premium vacuum. However, coming from someone who spends a lot of time reviewing vacuum cleaners, I think this is worth a trip to your nearest Lidl if you're after an affordable everyday cleaner.
