I love my Shark Pet Plus. I used to have a Dyson (don't remember which model) but it was always clogging up, so I decided to try a Shark. Easy to empty and does a great job on both carpet and hard wood. I have recommended it to several people, who have also purchased. I think my only complaint is it is little large and heavy for carpeted stairs, so I have a cheap-o, lightweight stick vacuum for that.

Another thing I just remembered that I love about the Shark is the light on the front. I actually often vacuum in the dark lol because it highlights the dirt and dust that you can't see in normal light.

I loved mine for 2 months too. I was hoping it was a fluke that it stopped sucking at the hand device itself. Seemed to be overheating? Not sure if the battery/power area is just too small? It would shut off over and over and no longer suction. After reading reviews this is a common problem. Pro's: The head doesn't clog which is great, the container it empty's to is great and it is lightweight and easy to maneuver. Con's: Broke in less than 2 months of LIGHT use. Storage on head is super small, you may have to dump multiple times throughout cleaning. When dumping over a trash can, head is positioned so that it dumps and gets dirt everywhere. Tried multiple ways and still was messy.

we have a samoyed malamute mix and the Shark Pet Plus Cordless Stick is what we have! it works really well for his long hair.

That is a tight budget for a cordless, I can understand looking at a lot of the no-name brands as they tend to be less expensive. Luckily with wood flooring we aren't worried about thorough carpet cleaning. I'd suggest either a Bissell powerclean stick vac or a shark pet cordless essentials. Neither are particularly good quality or going to be great if your house is full of carpet, but either one will work fine for hard floors and at least have a company with a number to call if something goes wrong. Another alternative is a gtech airram mk2, it's in budget and is awesome if you want to minimize weight in the hand. The battery, motor etc all reside in the base. It's also less likely to clog up than some others since the debris doesn't travel up a long tube. The tradeoff is it doesn't have a handheld mode, it's floor only.

Validation here - I’m 6’ and my doctor and physical therapist have both blamed my height for facets of my notable back pain - same goes for my sister similar height. Sorry to those taller who struggle more, but it’s a struggle all around. I have a purple cordless stick shark vacuum that isn’t the best quality wise but the flexibility of it helped me more than a corded more standard shape.

We use a Shark Pet cordless which seems to be ok most of the time re: sucking up rugs. There is a low-suction setting which seems to work. It's very light weight and easy to handle. It's on sale this week at T\*\*get for less than $200.
