Shark - CarpetXpert with StainStriker

Shark brand units are top rated by consumer reports. I replaced two Dysons with a shark. Also bought a shark shampoo unit and won’t consider a Dyson anytime soon. Dyson isn’t even in the top ten on the CR lists.

I like the Shark pethair vacuum myself. It works great for me and my cats.

I’ve had a corded shark pet vacuum for probably 9-10 years. It still works great. I definitely recommend a shark.

Agree. My Shark pet-friendly corded vacuum beautifully handles both my cats (one with med/long hair), as well as my own very long hair. I’ve had it ~4yrs. (Meanwhile my brother does nothing but complain about his Dyson pet.)

I have a Shark that I bought in 2018 that's still going strong. I've taken it to a local repair shop twice, each time spending less than $100. It's worth it to care for what we already have.

I don't recommend shark. We bought it, it's alright, but we still use our corded shark for the heavy lifting.

Corded Shark, I got my second one after 10 years. We have dogs, cats and kids. It does very well, would recommend.

I have a corded Shark. It sucks... but in a good way.

It also picks up more than my old corded Shark (that I absolutely hated, but that’s neither here nor there I suppose) but people say corded is more powerful and I just think it really depends on what machine you’ve got with a battery and what machine you’ve got with a plug 🤷🏻

I had a Henry extra 5 years ago, it was fine. I replaced with a corded shark which has been better suction wise and has lasted 5 years but... I think it depends mainly on how much you want to care for it. For my shark I have the rollers to check, clean the housing, the anti hair wrap which eventually gets hair wrapped around it needs sorting. The dust collector needs washing out, the filter needs changing. Essentially it feels like there is always something than needs doing with it. With a Henry you just buy spare bags and stick them on, oh it's full changed the bag. Other than a quick wipe when he's grubby Henry will just keep going, no maintenance needed.
