> 3 dayWe got the sister model shipped without the removable battery… not happy with that, but Amazon made it right and worth our while to keep it. That having been said, this unit is perfect for our condo unit and tile floors. Love the lack of a power cord the most… never realized how convenient that feature is!

Greater than one weekThis as got to be the best money spent in a long time! Even my 28 year old daughter agrees with me, she uses more than I do and she tells me almost every time she uses it that it was money well spent. She even shows me something new she finds out about it every time too lol! Like the button she found on how to take the canister off to empty it with taking the whole top of the vacuum off, and how to remove the head of the vacuum, it’s a new toy we get to play with every time we vacuum, and it’s like we love to vacuum now, I mean we have dogs so you know they shed a lot and now we look for their fur on the floor - no seriously we do and we’re like…”Oh look we need to vacuum there’s fur on the floor!” or “ Hey ya know I happen to think I haven’t vacuumed behind the range or the fridge in like forever OR my closet!!” Seriously we have gone crazy with this thing! When I say we love, I mean WE LOVE IT! Oh and I almost to mention…the batteries - they seem to do really well at keeping up with us. I mean my daughter said she will vacuum the kitchen and the living room and hallway and still have battery life to spare, and remember we’re chasing a lot of fuz and fur here so that’s a plus to us!! The only thing is it is a little on the heavy side, I mean it’s not crazy heavy but after vacuuming for a few minutes it starts to get a little heavy.

> 3 dayLove the ease of using this - wish I had bought one a long time ago! Because its a Shark, I know that its doing a great job! I feel like my house is SO MUCH CLEANER with this around - easy to grab and go for a quick touch up. Love that I can transition from hard floor to low carpet with switching a button and you can hear and see the power it has! Love the light on the front - helps me see what Im cleaning up! The broom and dustpan ARE GONE! I realize now how much dirt and dust and dog hair they were leaving behind. (yuck the first time I used the Shark and the light showed me all that - AND I CLEAN, but it didnt look like it THAT day.) 10 stars for me!

> 3 dayWould not purchase this product again. I loved it when I first tried it but I have only used it about 10 times and twice have had to declog it. Too narrow of a space between the head and the stick. Dog hair was mostly the culprit.

> 3 dayI am in love with this vacuum. I have a 2,000 square foot home that is all hardwood and tile with a few rugs here and there. I was able to vacuum my whole house before this vacuum died. Not to mention it got so much hair up out of my rugs that I didn’t realize my other vacuums were missing. It has so much power and does so well on all the different flooring of my house! The only downside would be the canister size however if you don’t have pets, this should not be an issue for you!

> 3 dayI like how light it is and how it Maneuvers. Since I have animals I like to use the high suction which makes the battery go dead very quickly. One of the batteries we have will only charge to 80%. I have hardwood floors kitchen living room and hallway, area rug in living room. Usually I can Vacuum my kitchen living room and hallway with one charge, but I can’t use it on the highest suction setting.

> 3 dayMy last corded Shark vaccuum was a beast. Its suction power was amazing, but it was quite a job hauling it around. I really wanted to love my first cordless vacuum, but Im unconvinced. CONS: -It doesnt stay up by itself. The canister tips it over. You can bend it so that it stays up while charging or while being stored, but you cant just leave it up if you have to stop or youre interrupted. -The canister is smaller. -Mine has clogged 2 out of the 4 times Ive used it. The neck part between the roller and the main stick is very narrow, and you have to unlock the vacuum head to unclog it. Please note that I have not been doing huge vacuum jobs! This is just a 2xs a week regular vacuuming. This is pretty unacceptable. -Theres not a way to attach the edger and other attachments to the stick vacuum as I go along. So if I want to quickly switch to the edger, for example, I have to either carry it with me the whole time, or go get it from wherever it is. -The suction power. Its just not what Im used to with corded vacuums. If I use the pull trigger for max power, it drains the battery so much faster. -The battery says its supposed to last 60 minutes, but mine only lasts 20-30 minutes if I use the carpet or max power option. -I cant figure out a good way to use this on the stairs yet. It only comes with two small attachments. Perhaps the edger is the best way to go. PROS: -I absolutely love how lightweight it is! -I absolutely love not having a cord. I feel like I can go around quicker as I edge the whole house. -I think the bare-floor setting is better than my last corded Shark. The package was already opened and re-taped when I received it. It makes me nervous that it was previously used or refurbished, when it was supposed to be brand new. Im a little on the fence, but I think if I knew I could return it for a full refund after having used it four times, I would. Its too bad you just dont know until youve used it.

> 3 dayI feel lame having this much happiness over a vacuum but here I am. Suction is incredible and doesn’t blow dust and pet hair away in other directions. Works amazing on pet hair (I have a husky and two cats that shed a lot) and even litter stones. It can go everywhere basically. The head swivels so you can easily get under cabinetry overhangs, the flexibility to “flatten” it allows for me to vac in hard to reach spots that otherwise would just be a spring cleaning chore. Vac is lightweight but battery is heavy. It doesn’t bother me though. Hard to gauge the lifetime of the battery but I’m able to vacuum my 1600 sq ft home on various suction powers (carpet and hardwood) without it dying. LOVE that it came with two batteries so you can always have one charges up and ready to go! HIGHLY recommend for any home, especially ones with pets. 10/10 so far (2 months use)

> 3 dayReally like this vacuum. Great for a multi dog household and I use it daily. The two cons are not being able to keep the attachments, at least one, directly on the machine. The biggest con would be the shocks. Whew! It zaps quite hard and it seems to get worse as time goes on. I use a silicone oven mitt to keep from getting zapped.

Greater than one weekWe have a three level house, and previously had two plug-in uprights stored in our carpeted basement and carpeted upper level respectively, and had to haul one of them either up or down to clean the main level, which is all hardwoods except for a carpeted main level guest suite (which I use as my office) and a few area rugs. We adopted a rescue pup who stays on the main level, so we needed something more convenient that could handle her hair and tracked dirt along with food debris in the kitchen across the hardwoods, area rugs and the one carpeted room, while preferably lasting long enough to cover the entire ~1850sqft main level in one go. After a lot of research, I chose the Vertex Duo. When I first received the vacuum I tested it out through the entire main level. Not only did the vacuum last the entire level, but it still had a solid power bar remaining. I didnt realize how dusty our hardwoods were!!! Halfway through vacuuming, I noticed in the foyer that what I had vacuumed was glossy, while the floor ahead of me was almost matte!! The light on the front of the vacuum is excellent as well for showing dust and debris which are otherwise difficult to see! Ive been using the Duo regularly for a few months now and it has been a blessing (and is actually fun to use). I keep it on hardwood setting with regular suction over our hardwoods and smaller rugs / runners, only occasionally having to pull the turbo trigger, and it does a wonderful job. I use it on the carpet setting across larger 6x8 and 7x10 area rugs and in my office, and have never had to use the turbo function for it to get everything! Every once in a while I have to go over a string the dog pulled off her tug toy or similar a couple times, but the vacuum always gets it and never tangles. It leaves a clean floor with nice vacuum lines in my office as well. I can often track where my 8yo son has been by following the crumb trail - the Duo excels at making those trails disappear as well! Im 62, so I love being able to unlock and flex the vacuum to get under couches, tables, desks and such without bending over / messing up my back! Ive also used all the tips as well! The anti-allergen tip is awesome for our TV, tables, blinds, fans, etc... It swivels so you can get both above and below fan blades! The brush is great for furniture, air registers / returns, etc... The brush unclips to expose the pet muli-tool which I have only used a couple times since our dog isnt allowed on furniture, but it did well pulling various fibers off, so Id assume it would do well with pet hair as well. The handheld portion is light weight, and the edging tool does great on baseboards, corners, cars, etc... I couldnt be happier with this vacuum - it does everything I hoped it would and more, and offers a huge bang for the buck! Im not joking when I said its actually fun to use - I find myself vacuuming more now than ever (and not just because we have a dog)...
