Rocket® Pro DLX Corded Stick Vacuum

I think I understand why you didn't like the Sebo K3. With the carpet powerhead it doesn't clean hard floors the best and it is an extra step to put on the parquet brush and switch back. Some people just don't like how corded canister vacuums manuever which is totally fair too. It's quite a difference from stick vacuum to canister. I agree and think you should check out the Kenmore Intuition. It's a small upright vacuum about the same width as a stick vacuum. It has swivel steering and liftaway mode. It has the added benefits of a hepa bag, a hose and tools, and it can stand upright. Downsides are a short hose and limited tool storage on board, there's only 2 spots and many models give you 3-4 tools. I also agree and I think you should look at a new corded Shark Rocket. I'm not a fan of Shark vacuums but if you find it works the best for you then that's the most important. The more expensive Sharks are less reliable because they have more parts and electronics that break. They have also made it harder to clean and repair their machines. But if you've been able to keep a Shark Rocket going for 8 years then you know how to keep it running. The more problematic Sharks are the ones with dual brushrolls and cordless vacuums. My prefernce would be a Sebo Felix, but that is bigger and heavier and it also has the extra steps of switching between powerhead and parquet brush. I like that I can take it apart and order the exact replacement parts. I think if you want something just like your old Shark Rocket check the Kenmore Intuition and a new corded Shark Rocket. Thoughts?

I would look for your exact model. If you still have it look for the information sticker near the motor and look for the model number. Otherwise, look for a standard brushroll; it cleans better than the blades, and it's more reliable than the duo clean brushrolls. The Shark Rocket Pro DLX HV371 looks like it has the standard brushroll and headlights. It might not last long so keep your receipt.

I'd avoid cordless stick vacuums because they can only run for 10-15 minutes on high, so you'd run into a lot of run time issues. I think a corded stick vacuum might be your best option if you are walking or using public transport to jobs. There aren't a lot of great options but I'd probably choose a Shark Rocket HV300C or HV370C. It's not the most durable but it's corded so you won't have run time limits. I'd avoid the Shark Ultralight and Shark PowerDetect because they have much smaller bins and a triangle where dirt gets stuck inside the bin. If you are using a car, I'd definitely look for better corded vacuums like a Sebo Felix. One mobile cleaner uses a foldable shopping cart so they are able to fit a larger vacuum like a Kenmore Intuition. What do you think?

I have a few ideas: 1. Small corded shoulder vacuum. Oreck compact canister, Hoover Portapower, or Simplicity S100. These are small bagged canister vacuums that you must hold or use a shoulder strap. Suction-only so they're good on hard floors, just ok on rugs/carpets, no carpet powerhead. 2. A corded stick vacuum. Shark Rocket or similar. Many have carpet powerheads. Not the most durable vacuums. Bagless maintenance required means regularly washing the filters. 3. A small upright vacuum. Kenmore Intuition. It's a small bagged upright vacuum. It's as narrow as a cordless stick vacuum. The liftaway mode means you can separate the pieces for travel. It's lightweight but also not the most durable vacuum. The Kenmore Intuition is the most capable vacuum cleaner for hard floors and carpets of these options but also the takes up the most space on your cart. What do you think?

hey, i totally get the struggle. i had a cheap vacuum too, and it was just a pain. i’ve been using the [shark rocket pro](https://oklookup.com/review/shark-rocket-pro-vacuum/) lately and honestly, it’s been pretty solid. super light, which is great for those stairs you mentioned, and it has a detachable handheld feature that makes cleaning easier. the dust bin is decent too, but it can fill up kinda quick, so you gotta empty it often. just a bit annoying, but overall it’s been a good investment. the others you listed are alright but this one's been my go-to. good luck!

I have two vacuums: I bought the Shark Rocket Pro, coded, have no regrets. Cord is silly long, I’ve really abused it for its size and it comes back for more. Only downfall? Not enough attachments. So I ordered generics from Amazon, and it’s made it a 10/10 vacuum for my application. The second is a Bissell cleanview. Don’t hate it. It’s just way too large (exactly why I got a second, cord is short and holding it while doing steps was dangerous imo) and the power head was very disappointing for pet hair pick up. It also has a silly amount of filters to clean. It’s great for hard floors though.

Same! Have one of the Sharks and I vacuum much more frequently now that it's not such a process. It's also so slim that I don't have to move as much furniture, so im more likely to get under chairs and tables.

Shark Rocket PRO, it's the pet model that another commenter mentioned, with an extra suction option. I have two short-haired but high-shed pups and it does a good job. Really the only furniture I occasionally move is our recliner, and thats more because my grandfather eats in it and stuff falls around it. Everything else is like I nudge it out the way a little to get the dog hair drifts and thats it.

Shark rocket!! I use the pet pro one.. has lights so you can see everything, you can unhook the long hose from the bottom with your foot and don’t have to bend over. Same suction as the lift away but much lighter in weight. Can get under most furniture. It’s been absolutely perfect. Only thing is I have to empty the dust cup more often than a larger vacuum, but I don’t mind for all the other perks

I hear ya but I just bring a trash bag along and dump when i need. Like I said I’m fine with that for all the other perks . I do this full time and have similar clients.
