Shark IZ462H Vertex Ultra Lightweight Cordless Stick Vacuum with DuoClean PowerFins, Crevice, Pet Multi-Tool, Anti-Allergen, Brush, Removable Handheld, Flex, 60 min Runtime, Blue, MultiFLEX

I'm really happy with my purchase!I've only run the battery out once. Today. I hadn't vacuumed for a couple of weeks and I ran it on high almost the whole time, but I did get finished and had to empty the canister twice. Yeah, that dirty!My 2 daughters have Dysons. Until I bought a Shark Navigator, almost everything that blows or sucks in the house is a Dyson. I like my Shark better than theirs and it cost half as much. Theirs has no light shining on the floor ahead of you and believe me, you can't get stuff you can't see swept up! Also, with this you see clear tracks on the floor where the dust is now missing. Not just the dirt! It is amazing and I didn't want the light! The Dysons are quieter but they don't have a carpet cleaning setting. Turning on the carpet roller makes it noisier.I really like having the trigger to pull that makes the suction stronger. I use it about half the time...except today after having neglected cleaning for a couple of weeks.My dog sheds like crazy and it does the job pretty well. I do choose to vacuum the carpets every other week with the Navigator. It lifts the carpet nap better and gets up a bit more out of the nap. The stick does clean it well to the eye.Suction - my Shark picks up a lot of things on the floor that the Dysons can't; like leaves and dog kibble. It keeps pulling up all kinds of stuff until it just quits and then you know the battery has run out. Only twice since I bought it in November 2021.The front sponge roller popped out when I was using it today. Never before. It had picked up a corner of a rug. I cleaned out the area that holds it and put it right back in without having to look up how. Really nice!It's great! I am really happy!6 months ago -Get one of these great cleaners while they are offering discounts!This quite surpassed my expectations for cleaning. The Vertex technology of having a solid, soft roller in front is amazing at cleaning, even the DUST off of my hard surfaces! I thought I wanted to be able to turn off the front headlights, but NO! I love seeing the absolutely dust-free/furless paths I am leaving on my floors. You need to do an internet search for reviews on Vertex! That's what sold me! I am the daddy of a canine shedding machine and I am disabled with walking and balance issues. I am so glad I'll be able to vacuum as often as I want to. I am the owner of a Shark Navigator that sucks rugs off the floor. This isn't that powerful but I am really satisfied! It got my rugs clean with one pass. And my hard floors are sparkling clean!I was a bit scared about the weight of this vacuum because of my disability. You need not be. This is well balanced and although it won't stand up on its own, it will steadily lean on table/counter high surfaces like the back of a chair. Vacuuming for me used to mean fighting a cord wrapping around my cane and my back hurting for days. No more and I felt safe & steady using this vacuum.Do NOT be scared away by the reviews about static shocks! I used it through a full charge 3 times yesterday without a hint of static shock. It held a charge for at least 40 minutes while having the carpet roller operating about half the time. I am pleased with how long the charge lasts and how quickly it recharged.The cleaning head goes easily under the furniture that I kept a dust mop for. That sucker's out of my way now!My model comes with 3 tools; a crevice tool, a multi-angle duster, and a 'pet' upholstery tool that is converts from a 4" brush to a flat fuzzy tool. The motor assembly is easy to detach to use these tools.I am pleased to have the HEPA filtration but it wasn't a feature I felt I needed.I used it on carpet setting a bunch but VERY seldom used the boost suction mode, which does need to be constantly held on with your finger. But you won't be needing it except for bad spot cleaning! This picked up multiple leaves that were on my floors from heavy holiday traffic. I was pleasantly surprised. My upright only gets about half of them.I have multiple Dyson products in my house and a Dyson vacuum in the basement that after 4 years broke and won't switch from hose to floor. When I got my Shark upright Navigator I was blown away with the increased suction that seemed twice the Dyson. So, when I shopped for a cordless stick vacuum I didn't heed my daughters' encouragement that I follow them back into Dyson world with this and went straight to Shark!I am really glad to have the 5 year warranty on the vacuum and 2 year on the REPLACABLE battery! Don't spend hundreds of dollars on a vacuum that doesn't have a removable/replaceable battery! I'll admit that after my Dyson experience I did buy the $35 extended warranty for peace of mind.I found two 'con' issues but they were definitely not deal breakers! If you do some heavy cleaning you will have to reach into the dust cup and remove the wad of debris that wraps around the metal mesh post. I noticed some hair wrapped around the back beater-bar and when I turned over the cleaning head to easily open the cover to the bar, I found a bunch of dog hair on the brush bars that catch any errant fur. It was easy to pull off with my fingers. I would never bother to do that regularly. I just noticed it when I was getting my daughter-in-law's really long hair unwrapped from the bar. That will only be a holiday experience.I'll update this in a few weeks, but I wanted to encourage you to take advantage of the discounts being offered. I am so very happy I got this vacuum now!

My daughter brought her cordless Shark over one day to help out and I fell in love. This model was on sale that particular day, so I took it as a sign and bought it. I cannot tell you how much fun vacuuming has become without a cord or a heavy canister to pull around. We have a 150 pound New Foundland/Lab/Retriever mix, and he sheds year round, so vacuuming is a daily thing. This has made it so much easier to keep his hair out of everything. It moves seamlessly from our hardwood floors to tile to our throw rugs. The hardwood floor setting let's you vacuum smaller rugs without them getting sucked up into the vacuum cleaner. The handle also collapses so that you can vacuum all the way under couches and chairs and whatnot. While the picture shows several attachments, ours only came with the crevice attachment, but we have managed quite well with that. I feel like the battery life is very good, but it all depends on the settings you use. If you want more suction, it's gonna cost you some battery. But it quite clearly displays the battery life remaining, so you always know what you're working with. And it's nice that you can detach the battery to charge it OR charge it on the vacuum cleaner. I love this machine so much!

Overall, this is a good vacuum. The assembly was simple and easy to follow. It does a great job cleaning my small kitchen and living room, but the waste bin fills up quickly and needs to be emptied often. Unfortunately, this process isn’t as straightforward. There are multiple buttons and clips that must be pressed simultaneously to release the basket. I recommend having a trash can nearby the first few times you empty it to avoid spilling dust everywhere (yes, I made that mistake!).

I purchased this at 1/2 price on black Friday because I was going to have a procedure which would not allow me to drag my Electrolux around the house, I wanted nothing to do with it and scoffed at it when it arrived, I thoroughly cleaned my house before my procedure. What disgusted me the most the first time I vacuumed my house with this Shark thing is how much dirt it picked up, I still don't know how that was possible, I am not some kind of slob. So here I am, it's April 1st and I still have not dragged the Electrolux out. I guess I don't have to, this Shark thing is light, powerful and very easy to use. I have a decent sized two-bedroom home with a large dining room and have never had the battery die on me. If you have a big home this might not be for you, you can have my Electrolux if you want to drag it around.
