It’s an unpopular fact, but corded bag vacuums are the best outright vacuums. Corded mean more power, bags because they filter and get replaced regularly. Nobody ever replaces the filters on their bag-less models, and that means they work for shit after a while. Bagged vacuums also tend to hold way more dirt.
I use a Roomba because I’m lazy, and it kicks ass, but they don’t clean as well as proper vacuum. I also have all hardwood so the roomba does better than it would if I had carpet.

I had to replace the battery on my Boss's Dyson V6. The batteries are available, and it only required a screw driver to replace it. Not too bad, but kind of expensive.
For the record, I prefer my battery drill. It's plenty powerful for the majority of work I do. One time I was building a trailer and had to drill out like 4500 rivets. For that, the corded drill was preferred. I actually ruined two corded drills during that process.
My mother in law has a central vacuum. Clearly not an option for most, but it's kicks ass. You just have to drag the house around and plug it in different places, but the best part is that at the base boards in several areas you just press a foot pedal and it opens a door where you can just sweep dirt in. Just like at the barber shop. Poof the dirt is gone! Of course they have this large like 40 gallon shop vac on the wall in their laundry room that is the actual vacuum, and presumably it needs emptied from time to time, but it beats traditional systems IMO.

Shop vacs are great but they don't have beater brushes, so they have limitations.
