Stratos Ultralight HZ3002

I've had several and loved all of them! Right now, I'm using this one: https://a.co/d/2zlqyHf I love it. It's powerful and compact, the cord is long, I don't have to clean the brush roll...those are the pros. Cons: dust cup is small, area in front of brush roll needs to be cleaned frequently (they have a removable brush roll to make this easy, though), and the filters need to be changed frequently. Still, I love this vac and will soon be buying another.

[as someone that hates cordless, but hates the bulky options, I have this vaccuume going on 2 years and have best and abused and still going strong, still keeping up with normal maintenance (cleaning filters etc) and the suction is crazy powerful leaving those lines you want to see. I’ve used shark products my entire life and I love them. but I hate cordless including shark and all brands the battery life is just something that I don’t think is personally just advanced yet imo.](https://www.hsn.com/products/shark-stratos-ultralight-duoclean-and-powerfins-hairpro/20776225?sz=6704&sf=HO0460&ac=&utm_source=google&utm_medium=shopping%20engine&utm_term=&utm_campaign=Gshopping%7CBrandProduct%7Chome+home+appliances&utm_content=ADG-186839429956_pla-2080840965984_20776229_16497027252_ACC-756-425-5661&pdp_exp=1&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=16497027252&gbraid=0AAAAADg5sEQ_0PLCv1Ij1pLEV5Lv6m80s&gclid=Cj0KCQjwvJHIBhCgARIsAEQnWlDyIus0Vy6aV6jsi2P-FmGuFHyUstwdIY-q1VsiakzGV08HiL3TzYMaAmWGEALw_wcB)

I think shark is a good vac for under 200 dollars. Look into [Shark Stratos Ultralight](https://amzn.to/3Wrqzkh) Amazon currently has it on sale. It’s usually 289 but currently it’s under 200. It’s a good vacuum and has what you need plus some.

Amen! It's about time someone said this. People need vacuums they will actually use and that are easy to use. I had one shark last over 10 years til I killed it by using it like a dry shop vac. I have 2 others - a corded stratos and a Cordless power detect that self empties. With my shedding dog they work wonders and the Cordless makes it easy to vacuum all the stairs I have. A vacuum sitting in the closet doesn't clean a house.

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.

#1 brush as often as possible. I'm a self admitted clean freak and I hate hair. I've had many vacuums over the years. My previous vacuum was a Dyson animal that I loved when it actually was functional (I will unfortunately not be buying another Dyson). Now I have a Shark Stratos DuoClean PowerFins HairPro. I am not disappointed! Works great on the carpet and the vinyl floors. Next investment will be a robot vac/mop

I use a Shark Stratos from Costco. It's been good, comes with lots of attachments. The dual brush and fins clean hard floors very well.

Absolute best, Dyson V15/16. Bang for your back, Shark Stratos. Both drains battery very quickly at the highest setting. There's just no way around that.
