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

The only negative is the battery quit before I could get through my whole house, so I am ordering a second battery to keep charged in reserve. In terms of suction power and maneuverability, this machine beats my Dyson stick vac times ten! It picks up bird seed under the Canary cage (and all the larger bits that the Dyson would spit out) with great ease. I vacuumed under the beds and furniture with ease - theres a lot of dust hiding under there. It picks up a TON of dust that other machines have left behind. Im glad I ordered this.

I only have to go over the floor to pick up all the dust, dirt, and cat hair once! And it makes me so happy to not have to go over and over every area! And the dumping of the container is so easy I can’t begin to tell you the difficulty I had with my last vacuum. Thank you!

I love this vacuum! My Dyson died and I replaced it with this vacuum. I’m happy to report it’s much, much better than the Dyson. I don’t think the suction is quite as powerful, but the unique roller design well makes up for it. I will say it’s much heavier, but it doesn’t bother me. The self-standing base is awesome (anyone else had a stick vacuum fall over in the middle of the night?!). I have little kids so I’m constantly vacuuming up crumbs, cereal, you name it. This vacuum has no problem picking it all up! Bonus, you can easily take off the stick mid vacuum and change it into a handheld. We also have a large hairy dog and so far the self-cleaning bristles work wonderfully. It’s also quiet! Or at least way quieter than my Dyson was. No problem vacuuming during nap time. ;)

I love the cordless feature and with an additional battery will look forward to using it for light cleanups. I’ll still need my heavy duty, yet cumbersome, vacuum for the deep cleaning when necessary. I like the flexible stem for reaching under furniture and the detachable hand vac for the stairs. This is just what I needed.

It’s good on hardwoods and the attachments are useful. It does make cleaning quick and easy! I really really love how it stands up on its own securely when you slightly lean it against something. Other brands slip. I also like how the tip detaches and can rest on its back to charge. We don’t need a wall brace for it so that’s easy. My only complaints are that the section power with the accessories is minimal, and the bottom part is too tall and wide to get into small spaces (like next to the toilet if it’s by a wall) or under low counter overhangs. It’s best on hardwoods. I’ve been very pleased with the battery life, I typically only have to charge it after two or three cleans.

This little thing is great. It suctions real well on my hardwood and carpet floors. Easy clean ups for when you have a baby! Love the flexible option to clean easily under couches. My only complaint is that it’s significantly heavier than my old cordless vacuum. Buy it. Just do it.

I have a powered Shark and I love it. This cordless model is ok. I don’t get the hype with these cordless vacuums… It does pick up ok on the Med speed but I find it misses some stuff that my powered Shark would not. I find I have to use the high power to get it to pick it up (and that drains the battery VERY fast). I don’t like the feel off the vacuum. It doesn’t run smoothly (I suspect it’s the fins underneath causing this). I have to make sure to vacuum in certain directions to get the vacuum to work best. Also after vacuuming my carpet, it just doesn’t look vacuumed. I am used to seeing vacuum lines in my carpet and there is none. Those lines imo meant the suction was good. I NEVER see vacuum lines after using this cordless vacuum. It does pick up stuff because I do have to empty the bin- but I just don’t think these cordless vacuums do as good a job as a plug in vacuum. It’s a shame as I like the portability, the lightness and compactness of the vacuum. I think it would work better on tile/wood floors. Now let’s talk about the battery charge… a HUGE selling point for me was the addition of a second battery and the ability to remove it to charge. I would NEVER recommend anyone not having a second battery when purchasing ANY cordless vacuum. The battery runs out pretty quick esp if you use the highest power setting. That setting really should only be used once in a while as it drains the battery VERY quickly. I use the med setting only (low setting is a waste of time imo) and occasionally the high. I use a battery and a 1/2 for about 1200 Sq foot. If I only had 1 battery I would have to wait 2-3 hours for it to recharge to finish my home. The things I like about this vacuum was the attachments, extra battery, method of charging and how compact it is. I also like that I can vacuum under my couch because of how compact it is. This vacuum can also be used as a hand held- because of the attachments it can be used to vacuum ur car (if you live where there is no power outlet access, like and apartment, this will be great). The thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t stand up on its own when the battery is on which can be annoying. I kept the vacuum but will still hang on to my powered vacuum. I was really hoping to replace my larger plug in vacuum with this. Just one more thing to take up space….

I tried the dyson v15 detect before this product and I loved it. It is not a Dyson for sure but these days I couldn’t rationalize paying for the $800 vacuum so I sent it back and started looking for one that was the closest to this dyson. This one is it. Although it is much more bulky and doesn’t vacuum under the fridge, stove etc it seems the suction is pretty similar and has other features that for me are better like folding to store and extension for under beds. I did not want to use the storage for the dyson since it involved placing screws in my wall, new home equals a hell na for me. Emptying the canister is similar as well, both do not hold large amounts but that doesn’t bother me to empty a canister. Overall, with half the price of the Dyson and other features I mentioned this is definitely the better buy.
