Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Shark Vertex DuoClean PowerFin Upright Vacuum is an absolute powerhouse! The suction is incredibly strong, and it easily picks up pet hair, dirt, and debris from both carpets and hard floors. The DuoClean and PowerFin technology really make a difference, everything feels cleaner after just one pass. I also love the Powered Lift-Away feature, which makes it easy to clean under furniture and above-floor areas. The self-cleaning brushroll is a game changer. No more cutting tangled hair! The vacuum feels high-quality and looks beautiful in the rose gold finish. The only drawback is the weight. It’s a bit on the heavy side, especially when moving it up and down stairs or doing longer cleaning sessions. However, the excellent cleaning performance more than makes up for it. Overall, it’s a fantastic vacuum for anyone looking for deep cleaning power and advanced features—just be prepared for a little arm workout!

First of all, I loved that I needed no tools to assemble this unit. Everything was just snap into place. I didn’t read anywhere but the unit is almost “self propelling”. The effort to push forward is minimal. The unit does most of the work. I like the blade design so that it’s self cleaning and no hair to get tangled up. The dust container capacity is on the smaller side but it forces to you empty it :)

This is the best vacuum ive ever owned! If you have pets this vacuum is for you! I love all the attachments and how good it gets the animal hair up. Even my shaggy rug, this vacuum works so good! Its a little awkward to get use to using at first because the block front is a bit heavier that some of the cordless vacs but since it works so good, I am willing to forfeit that for how awesome this vacuum is!

I have one of this on my house and vacuum really good

The suction on this vacuum is great, but it is very hard to deal with as far as cleaning goes. It does not maneuver very well. The suction is so strong that area rugs. It sucks up and completely stops. You have to turn the vacuum off and back on to get it started again, even with the rug rotator going I have two extra large muddy mats, which is a shag consistency. It does not vacuum that very well at all it still leaves a lot of dirt in between the rug fibers. I would not buy this vacuum again.

I have given this vacuum since November. I like but don’t love it . We have cats and dogs and it does well with carpet , tile and cat litter . Empties ok and filter is always dirty . It stopped working recently and cooled off then was fine . It tips over easy when using attachment . Small pieces don’t stay on well and hose is not long at all for high places . I had a Dyson animal and don’t love the suction but liked the attachments. This is much lighter and has good suction but isn’t as easy to use . Falls over alot . Won’t get again and not worth the money

The best vacuum I've had hands down! Works well for a house full of long hair and pet hair!

Amazing vacuum - very powerful and picks up the pet hair in our home so well! We have 5 dogs and 2 cats. Very impressed and happy with this purchase.

This doesn’t get hair clogged in it. Great for pet hair I have 4 dogs & this does incredible getting the hair picked up. The power this vacuum has is top notch can’t recommend enough.

This vacuum has incredible suction. I’ve used different brands, and I’m convinced this one is the best.

Glad I chose this vacuum cleaner. Previously had a shark navigator and liked that one so much decided to up grade. The only thing is it is a little heavy, but my other one kept falling over, it was so light. There is an adjustment that controls the suction and that makes it easier to use. There is a feature that I think needs improving. When throw rug or something accidentally gets sucked up a red light goes on. It is on the right side bottom and can’t see it. I am ok with it but some one like a husband who doesn’t pay attention and is just wanting to get done, doesn’t notice the light and that can harm the vacuum cleaner. He doesn’t like to be reminded, but don’t want my vacuum ruined.

Little early for a final judgement but this vacuum cleaner seems quote good. It's a bit too heavy for smaller individuals. I've noticed the roller sometimes stops working in the middle of a job. I have to turn it off and then back on the restore that function. Not sure why. At this point, it's merely annoying. If it keeps up, this may be a short and I'll need to swap it for a new one. I'm very happy overall with the performance of this item. Saving the 5th star only due to roller function.

Shark is always you get what you pay for, this vacuum??? AMAZING. Its a bit heavier than i thought it would be but most certainly makes up for my only dislike with how powerful this vacuum is. I knew it would be a great vacuum but i did not know it would be *this* great. I did one pass in my living room and i swear it pulled up stuff from 1978. You wouldn’t know i had cats with this bad boy unless you saw them. Absolutely amazing. 10/10

Way better then I expected only down side of it is when you put it in lift away it can be heavy to the point its annoying to carry

Great suction. Easy to use. A little on the heavier side. Love the versatility. I have a toddler and 3 indoor cats. It tackles it all.

Good sweeper with good suction power. Hose could be a little longer.

This vacuum is amazing, I had a shark wandvac that worked great too but once I used this vacuum it picked up dirty we didn’t even know was there. It works wonders on hard flooring and rugs. It has 3 settings for different floor types and it lets you know with a green or red light if you should change the setting to your flooring type you’re using it on. The different attachments help as well, it picks up everything on the couch and other harder areas to clean.

Amazing vaccum. The suction is incredible and the dual rollers on the bottom of the vaccum work so great. It feels like it's self-propelled. Picks up crumbs great from both carpet and wood/ceramic tile.

After many hours spent researching the difference between the shark models and other competing brands, we decided to purchase this from BestBuy for half-off during black Friday. It was the best decision ever. This vacuum has a strong suction picking up literally everything in one pass, getting corners of the wall or low furniture super easy. There is a slight forward pull when the canister is detached, but I find that beneficial in reducing my efforts in hard to reach places (the work is only in backward pull). It is super maneuverable and light-weight. I really enjoy all the buttons being right at your fingers or within reaching distance. The best thing about this product is that NONE of my hair gets tangled in the brush at the bottom. Absolutely zero. My only caveat is that I wished the extension cord was just a few feet longer.. or maybe making the canister taller so that it could be a little slimmer which would reduce having to bend lower if you're trying to reach under the table but are too lazy to detach the canister (I'm 5'2). Just my preference though, I still rate this a 5/5 and have been a long-time loyal customer to both BestBuy and to Shark.

Really love the Shark brand. This is our second and performance is great and very easy to maintain. It is a very versatile design to easily come apart and put back together to get the harder to get to spots or make the vacuum lighter to clean furniture and other surfaces.
