upright vacuum
Vertical floor sweeper
An upright vacuum is a vacuum cleaner designed to stand vertically, with the motor, suction head, and dust collection all housed in a single unit that the user pushes across the floor.
The design contrasts with canister vacuums, where a separate wheeled tank connects to the cleaning head by hose.
Uprights dominate the American market: She ran the upright vacuum over the carpet before guests arrived.
