I think that's what I've got as well - mine's the 'TruePet Lift-Away' but I think it's the same general model. The only issue after 5.5 years is that the stick doesn't click into the base very well anymore.
I have a Shark Liftaway True Pet and love it. Did a ton of research before buying for something that can handle pet hair, go under furniture, easier to do stairs etc. It checks all of your boxes and is currently $355.

I’ve had the Shark TruePet since 2020, and it’s still holding up great. I do have to cut long hair out of the rollers every few months (three daughters in the house), but it’s been solid on both carpet and hardwood. I think I paid around $250 for it at the time.
That said, I’m actually shopping again because my youngest has allergies, and I was told that a bagged vacuum with HEPA filtration can make a big difference. Those three things together (corded + bagged + HEPA) do push the price up, but I’ve seen a couple of Hoover models that land closer to your budget.
If you’re still looking, definitely check out the [Vacuum comparison sheet](https://www.reddit.com/user/lacking_foyer48/comments/1lj76h3/vacuum_cleaners_compared_comprehensive_datasheet/) that I saw on another subreddit. It compares all the models and brands side by side. I’m using it right now to shop, and it really helps narrow things down no matter what your priorities are.
I actually clean houses for a living and my girl and I use the shark pro true pet rotator. We especially like the fact it has a light on the handle/wand. We've gone through maybe 4 different shark brands and this one is the best so far. Many of our clients have Shark brands so I've used a bunch of different types. We clean a minimum of 2 houses a day for each day of the work week. By and large, they each last roughly 2 years before the heads get "floppy" or the clips that hold the wand in begin to fail.
With 2 dogs and a cat I think a cordless won't do as good a job as one with a cord. I have 3 small dogs and my cordless needs to be dumped many times when doing the house. I like my shark rotator...I think it's called a "Tru pet" or something like that.
I finally replaced my 10 year old shark rotator lift away last year- one of my kids was moving out and I figured rather than buy them a new one I would get myself a new one and pass that one on. I replaced it with a shark navigator the day before they moved and they were on their happy way with my well loved vacuum. I unboxed the navigator liftaway and halfway through the first room I hated it. It isn't heavy but you really have to push to get it to go the direction you want it to. And forget about trying to manuever it around a table leg. It cleans well so I forced myself to keep using it hoping it just needing to be worn in a bit. It didn't get better.
Thankfully I have several kids close in age so I had an excuse to pawn this one off and get a different one this winter. I replaced it with the shark rotator pet lift away that I got from sams club. I am in love again. It is so easy to use on carpet and hard floors, turns smoothly, doesn't get hair tangled on the roller and is so light I can easily carry it between floors. It does have a narrower cleaning head than some but that makes it a bit easier to get under chairs and around furniture legs in my opinion.
Bottom line- go for the rotator not the navigator :)
