The T3 Awards in association with Norton are back for 2024! This year, we’re championing and awarding the latest and greatest products from the past year, in terms of design, innovation and performance. As the in-person event is happening this week, we’ll be announcing the winners over the next few days, and we’re starting with Home and Style.
Home and Style is a fairly broad category, covering everything from vacuum cleaners and mattresses, office chairs and hair stylers, watches and electric toothbrushes. T3’s Home team have tried and tested hundreds of Home and Style products over the past year, and have found the best of the best that deserve your attention.
Below you’ll find all the Home and Style winners, plus our picks for highly commended and a list of our worthy nominees. This week, we’ll be announcing all Tech, Active and Home winners this week, so stay tuned to find out who will be taking home the prizes. For all the nominees, take a look at T3 Awards 2024 shortlist.
Best Vacuum Cleaner
Shark Detect Pro
Many big name brands released new innovative floor cleaning products this year, but our winner for the best vacuum cleaner for T3 Awards 2024 is the Shark Detect Pro. Shark has made a name for itself in the vacuum cleaner world, and its latest cordless vacuum is head and shoulders above the rest.
With its deep cleaning settings and multiple suction modes, the Shark Detect Pro has an attractive lightweight design and easily picks up dirt, dust and debris. Its Anti Hair Wrap technology works wonders on human and pet hair, and its reasonable price tag means its impressive design and performance is accessible to a wider audience. Find out all the details in our Shark Detect Pro review.

Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner
Eufy Clean X9 Pro
As the best robot vacuum cleaners have taken over the home, it only seemed right to create a separate award for vacuums and robot vacuums. Our winner this year is the Eufy Clean X9 Pro, a hybrid robot-mop that offers exceptional fuss-free cleaning.
While the Eufy Clean X9 Pro’s vacuuming performance is exceptional, it’s the twin-mop system that earns it the award. Its circular mops clean hard floors better than most competitors on the market, and cleverly rises up when it detects carpets. It moves smoothly over floors, and its mapping process is one of the best around. Find out all the details in our Eufy Clean X9 Pro review.
Highly Commended: iRobot Roomba Combo J9+
Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner Shortlist: Dyson 360 Vis Nav, Lefant N3, Eufy Omni S1 Pro
Best Home Air Device
Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde
One of the biggest launches from Dyson in 2023 was its Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde, which not only found its way onto our list for the best air purifier, but has now taken home a T3 Award for Best Home Air Device.
Straying away from Dyson’s typical fan-purifier design, the Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde offers impressive air projection with its cleverly engineered cone head. Designed for large rooms and offices, it reaches up to 10 metres to pump clean air around the room, while filtering and destroying allergens, dust and bacteria at the same time. Find out all the details in our Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde review.
Highly Commended: Blueair Blue Max 3250i
Best Home Air Device Shortlist: EcoFlow Wave 2, Meaco Fan, Duux Bora Smart Dehumidifier
Best Mattress
Emma NextGen Premium
Moving into the bedroom, the best mattress award winner goes to the Emma NextGen Premium. This hybrid mattress is constructed of memory foam and springs for support, comfort and better alignment. It has a medium-firm feel, and all types of sleepers will love it, particularly side and back sleepers.
Emma has often been criticised for its temperature control, but it’s significantly improved after listening to feedback. The Emma NextGen Premium doesn’t trap heat and is much more breathable than ever before, something that overheating sleepers will appreciate.
