Based on 1 year's data from Feb 24, 2026 How it works
If you’re still interested in bagless, you could get a shark corded vertex, last i checked they were 250 dollars on amazon. The corded powerdetect is their latest model of the same configuration and is 350 i believe. Amazing power, and it has a duoclean brushhead that works perfect on both carpet and tile (this way you don’t need to follow that silly flowchart). Vacuum wars youtube channel has great things to say about them.
I really love my Shark Vertex, which is an older version of what you have shown there. Tons of power and works great on both hardfloors and carpet.
I have the Vertex (it’s an older version of one of their lift-aways) and love it. It’s easy to disassemble and put back together, and it’s only a few pieces. I believe their current flagship liftaway is the PowerDetect corded, just a slightly fancier version of the Vertex.
I've had a shark vertex (corded) for ages and I have not been kind to it.
My shark vertix has lasted 5x as long as any of the Dyson's I have owned. As far as suction and filtration it's equal if not better. The price was also MUCH lower. Anecdotal, sure. But what is not anecdotal? The price difference.
Owned Dyson DC07 for 3 years. Small canister, constant clogs, half dozen fiddly covers and latches to remove for clearing a clog. Switching to hose was a real chore, dumb design. Shark Vertex Duoclean, 1yr 7mo so far. Good power, great design, canister lifts away so the vacuum can go under furniture, switch to hose with a button press. Single door for cleanout. Kirby G4, 30 years so far, handed down from parents. Ultimate power, ultimate weight. Suck the dimples off a golf ball, never a clog. Bulky, heavy, indestructible. Switch to hose is a bit clumsy. You can get a used G3 or G4 on marketplace or Craigslist and have no concerns about it lasting decades. TLDR: Shark Duoclean for lightweight day to day. Kirby for monthly "deep cleaning".
After my second Dyson died I decided to try a Shark Vertex. Holy cow! The suction on this thing is scary good. Only complaint is that when I use the wand it wants to tip over.
Shark Vertex Pet. Two 30lb corgis and a 65lb Husky. I have had it for 4 years and it's handled all of it.
Shark Vertex or Stratos. I have owned a few Dysons. Shark is a better product IMO.
I feel like with Sharks it really does depend on the model you get. I have had a couple that were just ok but my favorite one so far is the Shark Vertex. It is really powerful and great with dog hair. The rollers never clog. I’ve only had that one for 2 years but I’d buy it again.
Have u tried shark vertex? I just got it bc it was on sale but im open to others. Wondering if u have tried which one u think is better
They do make great surface level cleaners until the filters clog, but there's next to no deep cleaning ability, I daily drive a vertex because it's a good beater that can perform on carpet and hard floors but I also have a handful of good deep cleaners, currently I'm using a 5 amp Convertible
