Shark IZ163H Pet Plus Cordless Stick Vacuum with Self-Cleaning Brushroll, PowerFins, MultiFLEX, Crevice Tool & Pet Multi-Tool, 40-min Runtime, Raspberry

It is so nice not to be fighting with an attached cord when you are cleaning. This vacuum has great suction and lasts 40 min on lower setting and about 35 min using both settings. Love it 😊 I do all wood floors on low and rugs too and then go back over rugs on high and I have enough time to do all in a 1350 sq ft apt.I have bad Arthritis and back and the flexible wand is a life saver as you don't have to bend down to do under furniture 👍 I have always had Dysons but this gets along the edge of woodwork better than any of Dysons and no cord is awesome.😊 I would highly recommend this vacuum as I love ,love love it !!😊

Our house is roughly 2/3 carpet and 1/3 hardwood floors. We also have two cats (certainly not nearly enough to be considered overrun, even less a feline rescue home), and those two little darlings track litter. Lots of litter. Between times hauling out our heavy vacuum, I’ve been using a cordless car vac to collect all the little white grains of litter off of the hardwood. Well, our daughter-in-law recently visited, saw me with the car vac (immediately took over), and enthusiastically recommended this cordless Shark upright. She extolled how great it is in cleaning floors, how I’d love the cordless feature, and how much better it would be for me to not be using the car vac. She was absolutely correct. I love this vacuum! It’s quiet, holds its charge for roughly 40-45 minutes, is easy to maneuver, and most important, takes care of all the kitty litter along with dust and cat hairs. The rotating blades are very efficient and seemingly act to leave the floors looking like they’ve been polished. It’s not exactly what I’d call lightweight , but it’s not too burdensome. It took me awhile to study the manual (which was easy to print off the internet), but the various attachments, filters, and modes of operation are pretty much intuitive. I’ve found I can do the entire hardwood floors 3X on one charge, and I’ve easily taken apart and cleaned the bin and filters each time the vacuum has needed recharging. Based on the manual, that frequency is unnecessary, but I like to keep the vacuum as clean as possible. I have only two minor complaints which do not detract from the 5 star rating: 1) I wish the battery charge indicator light were placed on top rather than on the side so that it’d be easy to glance at while the vacuum is in use. As it is, I know generally when I’m close to running out of power, but the end has also come as a surprise (and it always comes without warning). A visible, low power warning light would be helpful in timing more closely what specific areas to clean first; and 2) the HEPA filter doesn’t lift out on ours. The instructions I read and the Shark Company video I watched—along with other videos—show it just lifting out easily. Ours is clearly not moving. It doesn’t appear by any stretch as if it’s put in crooked, but it’s not budging. I figure when the time comes for cleaning it, I’ll have to take it to a vacuum repair shop, as I’m not about to force it loose. BTW, I’ve not used this vacuum on carpets. I know it’s supposed to work well on any flooring, but our carpets have a deep pile and I figure the Shark would lose power quickly in that environment plus the standard upright vacuum we have does an excellent job. The Shark has its established niche in my cleaning routine and it’s a very welcome addition!

Edit** I wrote the below review after being frustrated for months of it not sucking up anything. I had my dad look at it as a last resort and he actually figured out the problem! There was a ton of hair stuck in the bottom part of the vacuum. There are three easy screws to remove to check this, so make sure you look to that first if it stops suctioning. Now it works great! Does not disappoint, similar to all of my other shark models! Shark- I apologize for the initial bad review 😬 *** I bought this vacuum for my downstairs mostly tile (pictured) and a few carpeted areas. I bought this around Black Friday this past year when my roommate moved out and took her cordless Dyson with her. I was so excited as the only vacuums I have ever had in my adult life are Shark (corded). I have a Saint Bernard and a lab, so I ensured to get the “Pet Pro” for the hair. This vacuum actually doesn’t work. Like, it turns on and such, but it doesn’t pick up ANYTHING! It pushes the hair around (pictured) and occasionally picks up some dust if I go over the spot a few times, but I go over the entire floor and now I have to re- vacuum the floor with the corded vacuum. Every time. This has been an issue since I had it. I’ve never seen a product work more poorly in my life, which is frustrating! Buying a vacuum, i would at least think it could do the bare minimum. I even go around the floor and pick up the bigger clumps of hair first with my Shop Vac to try to assist but it doesn’t work. I’m so frustrated I spent any money on something that doesn’t work and forces me to reclean every time. I am just hoping it will break so I can throw this garbage away but it hasn’t yet. Shark, if you are listening, please refund my money so I don’t continue to live in the hell that is a vacuum that doesn’t pick up anything off a tile floor. Or, please send me a vacuum that actually works, like I know you are capable of producing! To all other possible customers, please save your money! Signed, Extremely frustrated customer

Finally found a vacuum tgat actually picks up all the fur no matter the type of flooring ( carpet or bare floor) AND no fur gets stuck in brushes AND no fighting with a cord. Love it! Battery could kast longer ( max 30 mins) but ok for my needs. Also like the flexible wand to get under furniture. Comparable to corded vacuum in terms of suction power. Nothing bad to say about this Shark aside from battery life and it's a little top heavy.

I love this vacuum!! It is amazing with our husky hair!! I also love I don’t have to mount a charger to my wall, it just folds over anywhere. None of the hair gets caught although you do have to check behind the roller as some gets caught up there. I did a ton of research when choosing this one, it’s the only one that has the multiflex wand which is amazing, a hepa filter, the fins that don’t wrap hair, 20-45 min battery life, conversion to hand vac, and stays on without holding down a button. I did price comparison as well, Amazon is the only one that carries the pet pro with the multiflex wand in Canada currently. The others are just the pet pro, and trust me, you want this option!! It’s so easy to get underneath everything without moving it, or getting in the floor!! So happy with this purchase! Will be buying a spare battery for the big clean days!
