Shark - Cordless Pet Plus with Anti-Allergen Complete Seal - Blue
Summary:
Awesome!
Pros:
* Handheld. The unit is easily held in hand and is comfortable to use and maneuver.
* Familiar. This unit is similar to the IX141, which I also own and love.
* HEPA filtration. Captures fine particles down to .3 microns.
* Quick release waste bin. Press a button, shake, close the lid. You're done emptying.
* Designed for pets! This unit excels at lifting pet hair/fur from the carpet.
* Detachable battery. This is a new perk. The battery can be removed so you can plop in spares for long sessions.
* Attachments. The provided attachments cover most use cases. Tight spots. Sofas. Blinds and ledges.
Cons:
* I don't have any cons. However, I will offer some wishes.
Wishes:
* I wish they included a wall mount system, or
* A battery charging dock as part of wall mount, or separate (similar to Tineco vacuums)
Use:
I have a townhome with four stories. I also have a miniature schnauzer and a corgi. The corgi sheds. A lot. Even with monthly grooming sessions, his hair can be a problem to manage when things get super busy. We have a Shark stick vacuum I assume this is an iteration upon model IX141. It is amazing. Just like that one, this unit maneuvers easily is easy to remove and replace attachments and is easy to empty. It does an amazing job picking up fur from my corgi that the other vacuums I own just don't compete as well.
One test we do is to use a vacuum on our dark grey colored carpet. Then after we're done removing what we can see, we use our hands to brush the steps from the outside in. Kind of like if you were trying to gather sand to the middle. We do that for a few seconds. For all of the other vacuums, there is invariably a ball of hair that they missed. We just suck that ball up or gather it by hand and throw it away. This vacuum, on the other hand, didn't leave anything for us to collect. It vacuumed everything we saw and everything we didn't. Fantastic! I really love how easy it is to use this unit on my stairs.
Note:
If you have a pet that sheds a lot and has carpet (and hardwood), I highly recommend this gadget. Pick up two or get several batteries. We keep a vacuum on each floor since each floor has different ratios of flooring types and traffic patterns.
I have attached a picture of the canister after only 4 (!!!) steps and about 3 minutes. The hand test (see above) revealed virtually nothing left behind. We vacuum the main floor daily with a robot. The steps we try and get to every week, sometimes two. This test occurred on steps that were vacuumed only a few days prior. The pictures posted on BestBuy and Shark's website more than do this product justice.

Excellent power and utility in this vacuum. The brush roll is a combination of squeegee like fins and bristles and do an excellent job of preventing hair wrap around the roller. As an owner of a Siberian Husky, this vacuum does a great job of getting all of the hair off of our area rugs and laminate flooring. The turbo trigger is very easy to activate, but the standard suction mode is more than enough for standard vacuum jobs. In handheld mode with the upholstery brush, this vacuum does as well as my shop vac for cleaning up my car seats which saves a ton of time not having to use a shop vac. This unit is overall very quiet as well. The HEPA filtration is excellent for keeping pet dander out of the air, and you don't get the annoying puff of dust when you turn it on compared to a standard old vacuum. The dusting attachment is really useful and makes dusting a lot easier and cleaner. The upholstery brush and small tipped attachment are pretty standard and get the job done. My only criticism is the package should come with a wall mount to hang up the unit when finished for quicker storage. However, if you take off the top portion and hang it off of the stick, the unit stands upright on its own and takes up very little space, while keeping the charging port on the battery easily accessible if you want to keep the battery attached. The blue color of the vacuum is really attractive looking as well. Shark must have dozens of variations on this model as it is part of their "Rocket" series. based on the features of the unit, it is most comparable to their Rocket Pet Pro, and is just probably the naming they are going to use going forward for their pet specific vacuums.

Does a great job! Easy to dispose of dirt and keep basket clean. The most impressive thing is the life of a full charge! I know I can grab it any time for a quick clean up and it still has power even if it hasn't been plugged in for a while! Went with the Shark after my Dyson quit picking up and I'm glad I did!

Now this is a great Shark product. I have been buying Shark vacuums for a long time. Last one I got was not as good and I was disappointed as it seems that the company went in a "bad" direction as the last vacuum wasn't as good as the others before. So I decided to go with Dyson for a change and got the Dyson Outsize based on reviews and recommendations from others, paid pretty much $1000 for it with additional warranty. And, it was such a disappointment. I went back to the store the next day and decided to go back to Shark and got this vacuum (Shark - Cordless Pet Plus with Anti-Allergen Complete Seal - Blue).
We have been using is for few days and... we love it!!!
It is light, easy on your hand, easy to maneuver, suction is great (even on low power), and it seems that so far the battery is holding great. Plus has led lights while believe it or not, the $799 Dyson Outsize did not have any lights???
The vacuum has two speeds, one for bare floors and another for carpets. Both are great, suction is excellent and the bare floors looks like they have been wiped (no dust) after.
One thing that is taking away from the greatness of this vacuum is the loudness of the second speed, the one for carpets. I would love it to be less loud but hey, it is still not a deal breaker.
I love this vacuum. Go Shark!!!

Lightweight, quiet, the battery charge seems to last a long time, and it's easy to empty. You're supposed to hang the vacuum part on the stick for storage, and the hook for that isn't really reliable, but overall, this was a good purchase.

This Shark Cordless Pet Plus Stick Vacuum is lightweight, powerful, and easy to use. It picks up pet hair effortlessly, and the self-cleaning brushroll prevents tangles. The anti-allergen seal is a great bonus for allergy sufferers.
Battery life could be longer, but overall, it’s a fantastic vacuum for pet owners!

Great vacuum for hair

I currently own the Shark IONFlex 2X Douclean cordless pet vacuum and have been very happy with it. The only complaint I have is the roller accumulates hair that has to be manually removed. I was hoping this vacuum would fix that problem.
One problem battery operated vacuums have is the limited time of use before requiring recharging. I like that Shark made this battery removable; however, I wish they would have included a backup battery, since I find myself forgetting to charge the battery after cleaning.
This vacuum did a great job cleaning both hardwood floors and carpet. The boost trigger is a great addition, but seems to be designed for larger hands. The most awesome feature Shark included on this vacuum was the bristle head, which prevents hair from wrapping around it.
Pros
Great cleaning of hardwood and carpet
Removable battery
Bristle head prevents hair accumulation
Cons
Only one battery included
Debris catches on dustbin door (see photo)
Power boost trigger not designed for small hands
I would recommend this vacuum to anyone who would like a powerful battery operated unit that allows for swapping batteries. I would especially recommend this for anyone who has a family or dog with long hair. Just remember to pick up an extra battery or look for a package with two.

I recently purchased the Shark - Cordless Pet Plus. The vacuum cleaner that I replaced this with was 24 years old. I kept waiting for a good deal and something that I would like. I finally made the move and am so glad I did. I don't think I realized how bad my old vacuum was until I used my new Shark and was shocked to see how much it picked up. Also, my old one was very heavy. I love the light weight of my Shark, the fact that it is cordless, and I don't need a bag. It is very easy to empty the container.
I looked at several other vacuums that were cordless and saw the limited time that the battery worked. The Shark is probably around 35-40 minutes of use after charging, which is great. Not having the electrical cord knocking things over and getting unplugged is so nice. It is also very portable and so easy to use and put together. Its size makes it easy to store. Would definitely recommend. I bought it on a sale which was another added benefit.

This vacuum works well, and overall I like it. I think spending a little extra for a Dyson would’ve been a better choice. However, the Shark is easy to use, moderate noise level, and fairly light. You do have to empty the collection basket after every use (multiple times if you have a big house), and I have to leave it charging whenever it’s not in use so that it doesn’t run out of battery. Overall it is good, and better to use than my old corded vacuum.

Very lightweight and easy to use. Love having various attachments to interchange and that it stands up on its own. Also very easy to store and charges pretty fast. I use this vacuum for daily cleaning around about 1100 sq ft and the battery rarely runs out before I get to finish (using the lower setting for flooring and high for carpets/rugs). For deeper cleans, I go with a bigger option.

Great Go-To Portable Vacuum

The Shark Rocket PowerFins Cordless Vacuum is an excellent addition to our home cleaning equipment. It was easy to unpack and assemble by following the box lid instructions.
After giving the vacuum a full charge, we used it to sweep the carpets, hardwood floor, and furniture in the living room. We have two cats which tend to be hard on any vacuum equipment that we have. The PowerFins vacuum handled our living room without any problems. The suction is impressive, and the device was able to pick up some cat hair that our regular floor vacuum did not. After 20 minutes of cleaning, the dust cup was full. The cup is easy to empty, and we're glad to see that it can be easily rinsed out under a faucet.
We especially appreciate the flexibility of the PowerFins vacuum. The included attachments and the ease of switching the attachments provide the ability to clean floors, carpets, furniture, stairs, desks, and automobiles. Due to the construction of this device, the unit will not stand on its own when fully extended. However, the central vacuum can clip to the top of the brush unit for easy storage.
Features
The accessories quickly assemble onto the central vacuum.
Has a mode for floors, a mode for carpet, and a pull ring for extra power.
The vacuum dust cup is easy to empty and does not require a bag.
Comes with a Crevice Tool, Dusting Brush, and Multi-Angle Dusting Brush.
Detachable dust cup.
Easy to clean brush roll for removing hair.
Includes a pre-motor filter and a post-motor HEPA filter.
Flexible floor nozzle for handling tight corners.
The floor nozzle sits low enough for getting under chairs and tables.
Bright headlamp on the floor nozzle for lighting the floor.
The Shark Rocket PowerFins Corless Vacuum is our quick go-to vacuum for touch-up, furniture, and tight spaces. While I would not recommend using it as your primary vacuum cleaner, I highly recommend it for handling any job too difficult for a regular vacuum cleaner.

So glad we bought this! This is our first cordless vacuum stick and we won't ever go back to a corded upright. Cordless is a life changer! Since we have a dog that sheds and doesn't pick up his crumbs, my wife vacuums everyday. This makes it easy and convenient to do so. This is small & light, but powerful and does a wonderful cleaning job. We have a 1000 sf home and the battery lasts throughout the whole house. My wife loves that the canister can be completely washed out under water and no need to buy replacement filters. Removeable battery is also convenient. We highly recommend!

We love this light weight vacuum! The many attachments make cleaning the floor, couch, ceiling, etc. a breeze! The battery lasts a long time and we witnessed the powerful suction on the 1st use. We have a labradoodle that sheds a bit and tracks in dirt. This vacuum does an amazing job keeping on floors clean. 10/10 would def. recommend!
It also has instruction labels brightly displayed along the vacuum for those (my husband) that don't want to read the manual. This made it easy to use straight out of the box!

Works really well a good six months after purchasing it. I like it better than my Dyson honestly. though that thing is now 5 years old so who knows. The blue long stick part comes off so you can turn it into a short handheld vacuum on stairs. Will prob buy again and save money not buying Dyson.

Just assembled it and it was pre-charged and ready to go. Lightweight and powerful. Takes pet hair in a breeze and works quietly fine. Really thought, why I didn’t get this early? Having a golden retriever can be challenging when cleaning comes up and this really saved the day. Great purchase pet owners!

I think it's a great vacuum. It picks up my cats' hair really well and definitely lightweight. I will say that I think the battery life could be better. if you're using the button for the extra suction, it dies quickly.
