Have you ever used a wireless vacuum? It may sound stupid, but it saves significant time and effort over a conventional vacuum; taking the clunky vacuum out, plugging it in, unplugging it and putting it back means it takes (much) more than twice as long to do spot vacuuming.

Personally I'm never going back to a corded vacuum if I can avoid it.

Not even mentioning the cord management? You just vacuum where you want to vacuum and don’t have to drag a cord behind you and throw it around to keep it out of the way of being run over.

This!

The friction to use a cordless vacuum is very low compared to a corded one. And consequently, vacuuming change from being a chore that's done once few weeks for a an hour to some short 5-10 minutes burst every few days.

They're talking Miele, which most likely means canister vacuums. The two of you have very different mentality / approaches to vacuuming...and that's totally OK.
