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

This vacuum isnt perfect but performed well beyond my expectations. Its a million times better than my Dyson cordless. My only complaints/ cons are the battery life and lack of accessory storage. If you plan to use it on carpet, spend the extra money on a second battery. No static shock at all for me. The biggest complaint I read on here is static shock. I vacuumed my large carpeted bedroom twice with no issues. I even intentionally didnt touch the grounding bar on the handle with no shock at all. On the carpet setting and high suction, one pass in my large bedroom quickly brought the battery to 60%. I was able to do a second pass on the carpet, my large bathroom and stairs, both hard surfaces, all on high with a single battery. I was surprised to see how much power was lost on the carpet but my Dyson never worked on carpet at all even though it came with a carpet/ brush roller attachment. With only one carpeted room in my house, this will replace my traditional corded vacuum too. The two batteries are enough to do my entire 1500 sqft house with the suction on high and a single attachment for both carpet and hard surfaces. The hair free brush roller is a life saver! After two passes on the carpet, there were only a few of my wives hairs wrapped around the roller which were easily pulled off by hand. No more scissors to the brushes to cut half a head of hair off the rolled every other week. It would be nice to have a wall mount charger with tool storage like my Dyson has but its worth the trade off for a cordless vacuum that actually works. The Shark also has one handed tool change with the release button on the tool itself. Unlike the Dyson that requires both hands with the button being on the vacuum.

I was a little skeptical about getting a cordless vacuum. My husband was the one that persuaded me to but it because we live in an older house with minimal outlets....so we are always unplugging something to plug in the vacuum. I am so glad he suggested this!!!! We did the research first...dyson vs shark. Was the price difference really worth the $$? I decided to get this shark for a few reasons. 1. removable battery- you can plug it in anywhere and store the vacuum out of sight. 2. attachments that came with it- we have a cat and dog....we clean often and the attachments that came with this make it easy to clean those hard to get (and forgotten) places like ceiling fans, behind doors, and under furniture. 3. it folds down for easier storage- our shark upright plug in vacuum is sometimes difficult to get out of the hall closet with all the coats hanging because the handle gets caught by a sleeve or something. This vacuum handle folds down to store easily under all those hanging coats. 4. lightweight to take up and down the stairs and light enough our 6yr old can use it and maneuver it easily 3. price point was in a reasonable range. The ONLY negative I have found is that the dirt compartment is kind of small......it holds about as much dirt as our Roomba. We have to empty it a lot more often than we do the corded vacuum. Its not that big of a deal but still somewhat annoying.

Just moved into a new house & it was time to replace my ailing Wind Tunnel. Ive been reading tons of reviews, including Wirecutter & Consumer Reports, trying to decide which upright or cordless to go with. I was will to spend the money on a Dyson if thats what it took to stay ahead of the fur and kitty litter from my two cats. Im not a clean freak, but moving furniture out of my old house (and having dark laminate floors with a lot more natural sunlight in my new house) made it apparent that we were failing to stay on top of the pet hair. After all my research, this seemed like my best option. I crossed my fingers that this was a good choice because the only Shark I had was a hand held model & I wasnt impressed. Also, Wirecutter wasnt a fan of cordless vacuums, but I really wanted that option & there are ALWAYS a few bad consumer reviews -- so hard to know what to believe. Admittedly, Ive only had it for a week, but I LOVE IT!! It does a great job on both carpets and bare floor and also vacuums rugs without sucking the edges into the vacuum. I couldnt believe how much cat hair it picked up (or should I say was missed with my Swiffer) on all surfaces. It also did a better job on stray pieces of kitty litter -- better than my B&D Dustbuster. The light also makes it easier to see where you missed. Its lightweight (but have to get use to a cordless being top heavy) and I love that the power switch stays on (all Dyson cordless models have a trigger that has to be squeezed the entire time youre using it -- no thanks) and very easily switches from carpet to bare floor mode at the power switch. The run time is great and I love that it can get underneath furniture that none of my uprights could. Also, emptying the container is super easy (I will admit that if theres a lot of cat hair, I have to dig some of it out with my hand, but its not difficult, and so what if I have to wash my hands afterwards). Im SO GLAD I got this vacuum and would highly recommend it.

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’m in love with this vacuum! It’s so easy to use on hard floors and carpet. The charge lasts for me to vacuum my home 3 times. I love that I can fold it and not have to mount it to a wall when stored. I have zero complaints

Great. Love it for quick easy clean ups after our twin toddlers. Took stars off bc it was missing the brush attachment. Not worth sending back but i want to get all of what i pay for

Great suction, easy to use and get under furniture. Easy to clean the dirt cup; however, sometimes the hepa filter falls out when removing the cup. Does well with Golden Retriever hair, except on our short/tight weave rug where hair gets trapped more securely. Overall, this is a great vacuum. Biggest concern is finding replacement roller and duoclean powerfins for this model. I cant find anything specific to this model iz462h.

Most amazing vacuum I have ever bought and used I wish the battery life was a little longer though
