Handily, the unit is swappable, so providing you purchase an additional battery, there will be minimal interruptions to your cleaning session. We also found the Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner was easy to empty. Just disconnect the wand and use the button on the left-hand side of the canister to activate the mechanism shark cordless that ejects the debris into the bin in one swift move. Rather than the wand being a single section, it has a flexible extension tube in the center. When you press the catch on the back of the wand, it can bend by up to 180 degrees, enabling the vacuum to be easily manoeuvered under furniture or made more compact for storage.
The Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner is certainly a powerful vacuum. During testing, it sucked up fine dust and larger debris on both carpet and hard floor with ease on all power settings. However, when it came to hard floors, we did find the wheels on the back of the cleaner head flicked some of the oats around the floor, rather than collecting them.
In fact, it cleaned up every material in just a pass or two, regardless of flooring type. We found that the 1.4-quart dust bin empties easily, but given the vacuum’s powerful suction and long-lasting battery, we do wish it had more capacity. What makes this vacuum so versatile is that it uses Shark’s Lift-Away feature, which unlocks three cleaning modes. First, the ION P50 can work as an upright vacuum for deep cleaning on low pile carpets and hardwood floors. Miele’s vacuum is specially designed to keep hardwood floors gleaming. The high-suction 1,200-watt motor swoops up debris while the nimble cleaning head maneuvers easily around chairs and table legs.
Notably, at nearly 4 feet, this vacuum is much taller than expected. Since it doesn’t stand up on its own, either, you’ll have to lean it against your furniture or gently rest it on the floor if you need to pause your vacuuming session. However, like many other stick vacs, you can use the Shark Rocket in handheld mode, with or without an extension, to clean furniture, ceilings, stairs, and more. The vacuum cleaner glided easily across hard floors, although there was some resistance on carpet since it’s a heavy cordless cleaner. The flexible wand proved useful for reaching under furniture, as did the six LED headlights on the floor-cleaning head – they made it easier to see the area we were vacuuming.
It easily transforms into a slim handheld vacuum with one click and has an easy-empty bin, washable filter and wall dock. “Dyson is the leader in cordless vacuums, they come out with a better and stronger version each year,” she added. Turley described this small but powerful model as “The Little Engine That Could” with a one-way flap valve that keeps debris securely inside the vacuum. “The attachment tool is also great for cleaning behind appliances or under places where you can’t get with a normal vacuum,” she added. When shopping for a vacuum, the decision between a corded and cordless model depends on your specific needs and priorities.
It includes a pet brush, a crevice tool, and a small brush to handle all kinds of messes in a snap. There’s not a single vacuum cleaner that professional cleaners use. Often, the vacuums combine powerful suction with portability, like the Miele Blizzard bissell crosswave cordless CX1 Cat & Dog Bagless Canister Vacuum or the Samsung Jet 90 Complete Cordless Stick Vacuum. Corded vacuums depend on outlets during the cleaning process, while cordless models typically need to be near an outlet when not in use so they can charge.
And even with this model, the weight distribution is mostly on the floor, and therefore, not in your arms. Yes, it has a foam filter in the top of the detachable dust cup of the hand vacuum. The filter should be rinsed under a tap and left to air dry on a regular basis. In case you haven’t tried a robotic vac but, you’re lacking out. It truly is like placing your flooring cleansing on autopilot, and this robotic housekeeper is Jetsons-level sensible.
Our tester pointed out that it seamlessly reached under the couch. Notably, you can also make this vacuum more compact for storage, since the handle can fold in half. Its canister converts into a handheld vacuum you can use, too, but our tester found the handheld vac to be decently heavy. It may be fine for grabbing a few cobwebs, but don’t expect to use it overhead for a long time. There’s also not a designated spot for attachments, which was disappointing, so you’ll need to repurpose a box or bin to keep the attachments together in your home. You’ll find that this corded stick vacuum is easy to maneuver under furniture, and has good suction power on all surfaces.
