Shark - Stratos Cordless

If you truly want a stick vacuum that will do an amazing job get the Shark Stratos https://amzn.to/4fqy0Ro It’s great on tile and rugs, has strong suction, and handles heavy shedders really well. The only downside is that the dust bin might fill up quickly with all that pet hair. If you want a vacuum that’s made for hard floors and rugs go with Miele C1. It’s a bagged canister with excellent suction, better control on hardwood, and is built to last. The only caveat is that it’s a corded canister vacuum with bags. But if you suffer from allergies, bags are 1000% the way to go. https://amzn.to/4lhC0F6

I found myself purchasing a new vacuum about every 2 years. Then I purchased a Dyson pet , and it was great. Had a 5-year warranty, and promptly lost suction at the 6-year mark. It was the best vacuum for the almost 6 years I had it. Now I have a Shark, an apartment vacuum because it is mostly for bare floors, but the cord is short. Have had it for 2 years now. I would take advice of the professional cleaner - the porta-vac.

I have a Shark cordless WITH FINS. Not the brush roller. The fins do not wrap hair!! I have long hair, wool rugs and a dilute Torti, i vacuum every day and empty it daily. Fins are the way to go. Corded or cordless. FINS FINS https://preview.redd.it/bmwj48r457fe1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0ef9a3241ef64e2c8ee9c1c90bfe78dc4d5de906

My mother bought 2 Miele C3 Cat and Dog vacs. They've been shit. Get dirty and hot very easily, lose suction, hard to clean. I'm surprised they get such a good rap. I got a shark strator XL or whatever it's called and it's been wonderful. So many little design choices to make it easy to pull apart and clean or get to tight spots or even just manage the cable as you're moving around the house. It even has different power settings and lights to indicate faults if you suck something up you shouldn't have. I heard they weren't great AFTER i bought one but it's been a joy to use copared to the just as expensive Miele that looks and performs like it was designed 20 years ago and not in a bulletproof way.

Shark Stratos or Tineco A11 Hero. They're both solid under $300. Avoid Bissell stick vacs, weak suction and bad battery life in my experience

A lot of commercial cleaning companies I’ve seen use Shark Stratos or other top end Shark vacuums, actually bought one based on a review from a woman that owned a cleaning company using something crazy like 100 of them over their locations and swore by them. It’s a fucking fantastic vacuum cleaner, only ever needs one pass even with pet fur, never clogs with hair, really have no complaints with it I can think of besides the weight but it’s built like a tank and maneuvers well so I can’t even really complain about that. Used to stick with Hoover bagged vacuum models since that’s what my parents recommended to me, and it is so much better in every conceivable way.

I love my Shark Stratos. Paid about $500, got the package with the steam mop. I'll agree it's not a "commercial style" vac, but it works very well and beats having to replace the Bissell every year or two. My friend liked mine so much, she bought one too and still loves it.

No. Hubby has rebuilt two for some friends, two different models. They are built incredibly poorly inside. He was bitching and moaning the entire time about how much of a piece of crap these things are. I've had a few Carpet Pros when I was a house cleaner, I really liked them, they took a beating for sure. But they are typically more than $500. Currently have a Shark Stratos I love! My friend got one my recommendation and she loves it too. I have mostly carpet, she has hardwood and rugs.

Shark Cordless Power Detect Clean and Empty. I love it. Easy to use. I had a Dyson v10 I bought from Costco and it died in 6mos. I returned it. All of the shark vacuums I've owned have lasted years. My rotator went 10 years. This one is obviously new. I also I have a corded shark stratos that's been going for about 3 years.

Shark Stratos or Miele C1 Turbo if you want corded. For cordless, Dyson V15 or LG A9 are solid. Avoid cheap stick vacs as they choke on thick carpet 👌

Check out VacuumWars on YouTube for reviews. He uses really objective testing. My recommendation is the shark Apex/Vertex/Stratos duo clean zero m. It has a little comb inside that basically stops all hair tangles around the roller and it has two rollers- a soft roller for hard floors and a brush for carpet. It can be lifted off for handheld use. It's a 10/10. The Apex is the original model, there's now the Vertex and I think Stratos But you're more likely to find the apex on sale. This isn't a super cheap vacuum but it isn't outrageous either. It also has great filtration.

I have that Shark Stratos. I bought it before I knew better. It's okay but if I were you I would go with the Kenmore 600 or Sebo Dart. Bagless vacuums are NOT as good as bagged ones.
