I went with the shark! Lots of shade on here about repairability and while I do agree that it's an issue with most things in life, you're not gonna change it. I can easily open something up and repair it if needed, it's like most people on here aren't capable of using basic tools and 3d printing.
For a second I thought you meant "which house did you end up getting" haha
I bought the Shark. For $160, if it lasts two years I'll consider it a good purchase. Plus we're only going to be there for half the year so that's half the wear/tear.
Last month I got the Shark PowerPro Vacuum (this model: [https://x.com/BestDealsHQ1/status/1973111633380590000](https://x.com/BestDealsHQ1/status/1973111633380590000)) and it’s been really good. It handles the mix of carpet + hard floors in my home really well, and it’s been doing a solid job with the pet hair too.
It's not bad. It fees noticeably cheaper than the older Shark model but it's doing the job. The lack of a brush roll is strange - in its place is a roll with rubber flaps and a very short haired brush at wide intervals so nothing can get stuck or tangled saving hours of detangling we did before. It's probably more of a sweeper machine. It fast and easy to use for general cleaning (and quick vacuuming of big swaths of golden retriever hair) and I can just let the robots come out at night to do the fine detail work.
