Shark - Vertex DuoClean PowerFin Upright Vacuum with Powered Lift-Away and Self-Cleaning Brushroll - Rose Gold

This is a great vacuum. I have had a lot of different ones over the years and I would say if you get this one on a good sale you will be very happy with it. I have a large home 5 kids, 4 dogs, and other small animals. We have had this shark 2 1/2 years and it has been abused by my family daily. It is constantly banged into things used to suck up things it shouldn't. I would say it is getting to the end of its life. But again we are rough on our vacuums the brush rolls are worn out and the head is starting to get a little loose. We would fix it but the cost vs just replacing doesn't make sense to me since it's only a matter of time until something else would fail. I would repurchase this same vacuum in a heart beat but their new model brought back the light on the wand handle and that is a big thing that we missed when replacing the last shark we had. For use those little things make vacuuming much less of a chore. This is the 3rd top of line shark vacuum we have had and we have been pleased with all of them. We owned the original Dyson and it was great too but feel that cost wise the sharks are a better deal when on sale. We have also tried the less expensive sharks and there suction is just as good but are definitely not as nice. The feel of the vacuum is cheaper, the head path is smaller, they don't detach as easily. It's like a striped down Kia compared to a Cadillac. They both get you there but when you use it as much as we do making the time using more enjoyable is worth the extra cost.

I purchased this to replace a hoover I had for 10 years that went out on me. This vacuum is a whole new league compared to what I had. The suction is amazing, I vacuumed the living room that I had just vacuumed with my old hoover right before the motor blew and it picked up so much as if I didn't even vacuum at all. It gets deep. I love the attachments that come with it. I also love the power fins because they are self cleaning. In the pics you can see there are zero hairs, and that is after using it about 5 times now. On my old vacuum every time I got done vacuuming I had to manually cut out all the hairs which was very annoying. I got it on sale for 250 and at that price I think it is a no brainer

Absolutely love this vacuum. I had the rotator before this one which lasted for years and finally crapped out and so I did a lot of research looking for the next one. I have two kids and a dog so I wanted something powerful for wood floors, short rugs and furniture. This did not disappoint well worth the money. Only negative thing you could say is it is a little heavy but I kinda like that about it.

It is a vacuum cleaner with excellent suction, it works on all types of floors, carpets, rugs. With its tools you will help yourself to clean where you cannot reach. I love how sofas look after vacuuming them. The vacuum cleaner has a rubber protection around it that does not allow you to damage your furniture. My only comment against it is the weight of the vacuum cleaner, but everything else is excellent.

We've been Dyson customers for about 15-years. We had a great Dyson years ago. After it finally died, we bought a new, similar looking unit (Cinetic Big Ball Animal Canister) . Although it looked similar, the performance was nothing alike. We made due with that "new" Dyson for years. Recently, my wife was commenting on how poorly that unit was performing. I could not believe it could be materially worse than it had been. We pitted the unit against its younger, cordless sibling and the cordless unit decimated it - even after a through review and cleaning. So, this is where the story begins for the Shark. I did some research and opted to go with it versus another Dyson. Consider the following: I vacuumed a 10' x 7' area rug with BOTH Dyson vacuums, then I vacuumed with the Shark. Check out the picture attached. That was after just the first pass over the area rug with the Shark! To say we were amazed is an understatement! A second pass picked up a little more. The suction on this unit is impressive; phenomenal to say the least. What is not so phenomenal is how heavy and unwieldy the unit is. The unit is cumbersome - period. What makes it worse is the electric cable management. As much as I derided the Dyson's performance, the act of vacuuming was not so....clunky. The Dyson made it a smoother experience. Regardless, what I wanted in this vacuum was power and that is what I got! I am happy with the unit thus far. We will see what my wife says after a few rounds with the Shark...

To be honest, one of the best suction vacuum. My mom love . One of the good things is that you can detach and go under the bed etc… with no problem. The filters are washable and if you need to replace is not expensive . I love this vacuum better than Dyson 100%.

My Shark vertex vaccum, is the best! I love it, it lifts away every dust in my floor, my floors always looks best when I used my vacuum. It also has accessories I love the the pet power brush tool that you get is great, on my sofas and other surfaces it deep cleans hair and can be used for debris. There’s other accessories that are great to use on coners, baseboards and ceilings, mattresses, curtains and to use on delicate upholstery fabrics too! I recommend this item!

I have bought shark vacuums since they came out. Excellent suction and the best vacuum for dog owners. I had to replace my shark that was 8 years old due to the brushroll cover breaking and not being able to find a replacement part. I loved that model it had a light on the wand when you detached it. Best feature ever. I love my new apex but why oh why is there not a light on the wand? That's a downgrade for more money. Cmon Shark...what gives? This new apex does not handle transitions well from bare flooring to rugs...constantly have to remember to switch it or the red light comes on which requires a restart to correct. Never had this issue on my previous model. The suction is phenomenal and still happy with the vacuum even for the 2 annoyances. Yes, I recommend this product.

This vaccum works great on my hard wood floors & carlet the power is ?awesome. So easy to assemble everything. Gone thru 4 ?different Brands in the same price range & hands down this SHARK VERTEX is GREAT overall.
