Shark's are excellent, we have corded & cordless stick models.
Make sure to buy spare filters if you need them.

Re: What have you just bought?
I’ve been trying to buy a webcam all week but it’s proving surprisingly difficult to find any of the reasonably priced, slightly sub-£80 ones in stock anywhere.
At the moment I’m using the Epocam HD app on my iPhone to run that as a webcam for my Mac Mini, and it works reasonably well as long as you don’t want to switch, for example, between cam and window broadcast in Facebook live. The app loses connection with the app it’s meant to be feeding and won’t reconnect without being quit and restarted on the phone.

A bowl is not really necessary. But you will need flour, plus perhaps eggs, salt and oil (depending on the type).

@ Chris
wild stab in the dark . . don't suppose you have a fairly expensive dashcam that does streaming?
May work as a temporary webcam . . . you won't be using it much in the motor for a while

You can still buy directly from Logitech but there is an up to 14 day order processing delay.
Logitech C920s Pro. £85
Scrap that it shows as out of stock when adding to basket.
