Shark - Vertex Pet Powered Lift-Away Upright Vacuum - Hawaiian Grey

for me, I think short brand is always being pretty reliable for my experience. This is not my first time owning a shark vacuum. I’ve had their previews vacuum about four years ago and actually, I’ve had I’ve had it since and now with their letting us version of their vertex vacuum I’m happy to say that it’s still the same great shark vacuum I expect them to offer to their user base. DEVICE & FEATURES: Out of the box experience shark’s latest vertex pet powered lift away vacuum it feels premium to me. I love the look the color of the finishes. This is not like a heavy vacuum by any chance, but it’s good enough weight that it’s usable cause I can’t stand heavy vacuum but I think it could use a bit more weight though. One of my favorite part using this vacuum is the ability for me to carry it to vacuum certain areas or the corner of my couch, which sometimes it could be a awkward angle. The fact that you can just carry a canister is one of my favorite with this vacuum. I have a small dog, but when it comes to the other neutralizer technology, it’s hard for me to say how well it’s working because I feel like for the smell to actually produce. It will take more than a week for me to find that out, but so far, I haven’t noticed any smell on this vacuum after vacuuming, any loose hair for my dog so I’m guessing the neutralizer is working without me noticing it at all. Another feature that this vacuum have is also the self cleaning brush roll. If you have a dog that sheds a lot this pretty much would help you a bit more my dog shed, but not that much so I haven’t noticed any anything that’s getting stuck on a brush roll so far it’s so good and I feel like the HEPA filter does help with this vacuum to reduce that kind of smell or any dust pollen that could potentially go inside your home. And we also get a pretty good size desk cup so you can hold more less empty. EXPERIENCE: again, one the best part about this vacuum is that I could carry it with me. I’ve used this vacuum to clean my car as well. I’ve always want like a decent vacuum that has a great suction power, and the vertex delivers. The amount of dirt that this vacuum pause from my car’s carpet is amazing. I also took this vacuum to my sister‘s house because she has two dogs and she loves how powerful you can grab the all the debris and dog hair around her house in the carpet and the couch as well as under the bed. My sister didnt mind the weight when she tried it and she think it’s perfect. this vacuum also is pretty loud, loud enough that I only use it when my 4 months old is awake, I just prefer not having any type of noises during when my baby is asleep. but beyond using all the parts this vacuum has had zero problems on me so far so were moving on the right direction CONCLUSION: if youre looking for a versatile vacuum the shark vacuum vertex is easy to recommend it has great power, which I think it’s all you need when it comes to the vacuum, you can guarantee that will definitely clean your carpet like I mentioned or any corner around your house. With with all its features that shark provide the user with this vacuum, I think it’s a solid vacuum for daily use around the house, especially with the self cleaning features the power lift away technology and the hippo filter, keeping it fresh and making sure none of those odor would ever go out. i’d say take a chance you’ll be surprised how powerful this vacuum is until you try it. Some people may ignore shark as a brand, but shark is a pretty solid brand when it comes to vacuum.

I have a Golden Retriever and they shed a lot, some say that they shed twice a year but mine is almost all year long. Because of that I have had several upright vacuums, that were advertised as being efficient with hairy dogs, but all of them ended up breaking because the hair got trapped in the brush mechanism even though we were trying to clean it and do regular maintenance. On the other hand, the power suction is slowly decreasing. This Shark Vacuum, is incredibly powerful. After a vacuum session, while Checking the brush mechanism I noticed that it’s quite different to the other vacuums I have had, all the hair and dirt went straight to the center suction hole to the hoses and to the dust cup, instead of being located to the side of the brush where it usually is like the main issue on the other ones. The brush design pushes the dirt in that direction. Just a few seconds after I started the vacuum the hair started to show up immediately in the dust cup. I tried the Shark on Hard Floor (tile), and carpet, and it works great, even if I have a robot vacuum that makes its rounds every day, the Shark still grab a good amount of dirt, debris and hair. Setup and assembly is quite simple, even though it seems like there are a lot of parts to assemble. It took me 10 minutes finish following the owner’s guide. The unit is heavy, but very manouverable, which shows the high quality it’s made of and how powerful it is, with 1300watts of power. The brushrolls will not spin unless the wand is reclined, on the handle you can find the power switch and the selector 3 options for surface. Three notable things I found is that it includes an odor neutralizer technology cartridge, that will help to minimize the bad odors coming from my pet’s hair. This cartridge should be installed before vacuum operation.The second is the very useful and bright Led headlights which help to locate easily hidden debris and hair while vacuuming, the Swivel Steering that makes it easily maneuver in and out of tight spaces, corners, under or around the furniture, you can detach the canister pod from the main wand. This reduces the weight and lets you easily reach under low furniture, like beds or sofas, vacuum carpeted stairs, or clean above-floor or detach the nozzle and clean above the floor, curtains or any vertical surfaces. Beside the vacuum, the unit comes with the Pet crevice tool, the Pet Multi tool and the Pet Power Brush. After some vacuuming sessions, the Shark has proved to be extremely effective, poweful and maneuverable. And as it states in the specs it is designed for hairy dogs and deep cleaning. I am sure it will last way longer than my previous vacuums.

We swapped out our old Dyson Ball, which lasted more than ten years, for the new Shark Vertex Pet Powered Lift-Away vacuum. The name is a bit long, but this Shark is a real upgrade. It’s a big, corded vacuum, but it feels light and doesn’t have any odd smells like an old vacuum does. It’s not as easy to move around as a stick vacuum, but it’s much more powerful. We have carpet upstairs and hardwood downstairs, so we keep this vacuum upstairs to give the carpet a deeper clean than any robot or stick vacuum can. It also works really well on hardwood, so no matter what kind of floors you have, it does a great job. It’s easy to set up, just like most new vacuums. You snap the parts together and it’s ready to use. I really like the extra-long power cord. You can clean a lot before needing to unplug and move it. Our upstairs is pretty big, and the cord stretches from the master bedroom almost all the way to the office. We only have to unplug it once to clean three bedrooms, an office, and the hallways. That makes the task efficient. The power button and floor mode switch are right at the top of the handle, so they’re easy to press while you clean. This vacuum works on both carpet and hardwood, and you can adjust the roller with a switch depending on the floor. All the buttons are clearly labeled and easy to reach, which also makes emptying the vacuum simple when you’re done. DuoClean PowerFins HairPro (what a marketing term!) has a two-brushroll system. This does seem to work great, especially for carpets, in our case. We did give it a pass downstairs on the hardwood, and it did an awesome job of picking up hair and dust. We have a duck toller who does shed a lot, but we vacuum often enough that we don't see a lot of hair throughout the house. The dust bin is quite large and would take several uses to fill up, even in a big house with pets. We usually empty it after each use, but it’s nice to know it can hold a lot if needed. It’s also very easy to empty, so there’s less chance of a mess. If you've ever accidentally spilled a dust bin, it's not fun to have to clean up a second time. This vacuum also comes with an odor neutralizer. If you’ve ever noticed that old vacuums can smell musty, even after cleaning them, you’ll like this feature. Shark includes an odor pod that fits into a special spot on the vacuum. I’m not sure how long it lasts, but I’d guess a few months with regular use. You get one in the box, but you’ll need to buy more later. It’s also good to know the vacuum uses a HEPA filter to trap 99.99% of dust and allergens, so they stay out of the air. The vacuum has LED headlights, which is a nice feature. We’re used to Dyson’s green LEDs that really show hair and dust, and while Shark’s lights do this a bit, they mostly help brighten up dark corners or closets. For $500 (or $350 on sale), I think it’s a good value if you want a vacuum that gives a really deep clean. It’s light enough to replace a stick vacuum, but for us, it works well alongside one. We don’t always use it for quick cleanups, but for deep cleaning, this is our go-to.

The Shark Vertex Pet Powered Lift Away Upright Vacuum is a serious upgrade over the battery powered stick vacuums we’ve been using for the past couple of years. Its cleaning performance is impressive, and the versatility built into the Lift Away design makes it useful in far more situations than I expected. It’s louder and heavier than our stick vacs, but the tradeoff is worth it for the superior cleaning power. Cleaning Performance. The first thing that stood out was just how much material the Shark collected from rooms that had already been vacuumed with our stick vac. A quick pass with the Vertex Pet Lift Away pulled up an unexpected amount of dust, hair, and debris. It left the familiar vacuum lines in the carpet that I’ve come to associate with a fresh cleaning, and it noticeably raised the carpet pile in the traffic lanes. It makes a great first impression. On carpet, the Shark Vertex performs exceptionally well. On solid surfaces, it does a great job picking up the small stuff that tends to collect in corners where the floor meets the baseboard. One pass, and it’s gone. Shark calls the brush rollers the DuoClean PowerFins HairPro. That’s a lot of words that, by my observation, means pet hair and my wife’s shoulder-length hair are no problem. It all gets picked up, and the brushroll somehow doesn’t have any hair wrapped around it. Pretty cool. Lift Away Functionality. The Lift Away feature is terrific. With the press of a button, I can detach the canister and have the full suction power of a plug in upright combined with the maneuverability of a stick vac. It fits easily under and around furniture without dragging the entire vacuum body along. The dust bunnies hiding under the couch or bed are in easy reach when operating the vacuum in the Lift-Away configuration. This versatility is one of the standout features of the Vertex Pet. It’s not just an upright vacuum; it’s a multi purpose cleaning tool that adapts to whatever job needs doing. Tools and Attachments. Shark includes four attachments, and they’re genuinely useful. Pet Multi Tool: This was perfect for cleaning window screens. I initially thought the Pet Power Brush would be the right choice, but the powered brush was surprisingly aggressive. The gentler Multi Tool was ideal and worked beautifully. Pet Power Brush: This attachment shines on carpeted stairs. It pulled up embedded hair and dust with ease. It’s powerful, and you can feel it working and observe the immediate results. The Pet Crevice Tool is perfect for reaching the stubborn hair and debris where the step meets the stair riser. It gets into places the main vacuum head can’t reach. The Dusting Brush is great on solid surfaces like bookshelves, end tables, and TV stands. It picks up dust without scattering it. Noise and Weight At 1300 watts, the Shark Vertex Pet Powered Lift Away Upright Vacuum is significantly louder than the stick vacs we’ve been using. It’s also noticeably heavier. Neither is a dealbreaker, but they’re worth mentioning. The increased noise and weight are small tradeoffs for the superior cleaning performance. I anticipate a cleaning routine where the stick vacs handle daily or spot cleaning, and the Shark Vertex is reserved for weekend deep cleaning. Overall, we are very impressed by the cleaning power of the Shark Vertex Pet Powered Lift Away Upright Vacuum. It delivers a level of performance that our stick vacs simply cannot match. The Lift Away functionality adds versatility, the attachments are genuinely useful, and the vacuum excels on carpet, solid surfaces, stairs, and even window screens. It’s louder and heavier than what we’ve been using, but those are minor compromises for the results it delivers. The Shark Vertex Pet Powered Lift Away Upright Vacuum is a powerful, capable cleaning tool. If you want a vacuum that actually deep cleans, this one is easy to recommend.
