Black Friday is quickly approaching on November 29. And as a shopping editor on GH's deals team, I spend most of my days meticulously hunting for deals, which involves tracking price histories and comparing deals across retailers to distinguish the bogus sales from the legitimate deals.
While rounding up the best Black Friday vacuum deals, I consulted Dyson (one of our favorite brands at the Good Housekeeping Institute) to get a sense of what the brand's deals will look like this Black Friday. Dyson is keeping its plans under wraps for now, but I noticed a few of our top-tested vacuums have already started going on sale. Below, find amazing deals on vacuums backed by our Lab pros at the Cleaning Lab.

Who it's best for: Those who want a budget-friendly Dyson cordless stick vacuum that's light and easy to maneuver
Why we love it: Weighing under five pounds, the Dyson Digital Slim is the lightest model on this roundup. Plus, the slim, compact, light design makes it easy to maneuver. "Some models can be a bit bulky for small or petite consumers to use," says Carolyn Forté, the executive director of the GH Institute Cleaning Lab, who has been testing and ranking the best vacuum cleaners for over 40 years.
Attachments: Combination tool, crevice tool, Motorbar cleaner head
V12 Detect Slim Cordless Vacuum
Who it's best for: Users looking for a compact, lightweight vacuum
Why we love it: Although it looks nearly identical to the V15 in photos, the V12 Detect Slim is smaller in size, lighter in weight and lower in price. In our Lab tests, this model aced our performance evaluations for picking up pet hair, vacuuming bare floors and cleaning the edges along walls and stairs. The V12 also has the handy laser to illuminate dust on the floor, a colorful LCD display and a run time of up to 50 minutes.

We love the run time of up to 60 minutes, powerful suction, auto-adjusting suction according to floor type, whole-machine filtration and the LCD screen with real-time alerts. Plus, this Black Friday deal brings the V11 Extra to its lowest price ever.

Is Black Friday a good time to buy a Dyson vacuum?
"It's a great time to snag a model you've been eyeing at a reduced price," Forté says. If you're looking for a cordless stick vacuum, then there is no better time than right now to shop for a Dyson vacuum. But as far as we've been told and from what my research has shown, there will be no worthwhile deals on Dyson's handheld or canister vacuums.
All of the picks on this list are cordless stick vacuums, each at varying costs and levels of discounts. "There’s so much overlap between all the Dyson vacuums that they are all good, really," Forté says.
Pro tip from our director of editorial commerce, Jessica Teich: "In my several years of reporting deals and sales, top-performing vacuums from Dyson tend to see discounts of up to 50% off (sometimes even higher)."
