Shark® Vertex DuoClean® PowerFins Upright Vacuum Powered Lift-away® & Self-Cleaning Brushroll

I received this vacuum as a replacement for an older version of this vacuum. My 7 year warranty covered my unit and since they no longer made the vacuum, I got this upgraded version instead. I was a little upset at first because I loved my old vacuum and didn’t think another could compare. I was so wrong. I didn’t think it was possible for Shark to out do themselves, but they did. This vacuum is so beautiful. I love the rose gold. It’s super lightweight. The suction is so strong. I tested it out on a small section of carpet and I couldn’t believe the amount of dust, dirt, and hair it picked up. We have two roombas that run daily so I was super impressed. If you’re looking for a new vacuum or wanting to upgrade from the older model, this is it!!

My fiancé got this vacuum for me a couple years ago. I always brag on social media, but never actually wrote a review haha. As a private cleaner I used this vacuum in my home, private cleans, and vacant cleans. Sometime Airbnb’s here and there. The shark brand is amazing, but the Vertex is my favorite! It cleans more than competitive vacuums. I cleaned for cleaning companies and I love it more than their “commercial grade”. I live with 3 adults 3 kids 2 dogs (1 husky) and 1 cat! It has always gotten the job done!

Buyer beware. We purchased a Shark Vertex less than 60 days ago the power head stopped working, It was a moving wear and tear part and was not covered under their False Claim of a 5 Year Warranty. I guess my take on this is everything moves so nothing is covered under their 5 Year warranty.

This Shark Vertex, I am happy with this vacuum It does a great job on wood and tile floors. Plus, the large area rugs. For sure it has the power I was looking for. A bit heavy but easy to maneuver. Overall, it does the job for my first upright vacuum.

Not worth the price! Suction is not how it's described. Also keeps stopping on my rugs. Have to turn it off and back on too much trouble. The materials that's used is cheap. Will Not recommend. Going back to Dyson!

I currently own the shark rotator pro and based on the higher price I thought this would be better. It does seem more powerful but not sure if that’s due to new filters etc however I am sad it’s missing the light on the handle. So when i vaccine under my bed or using the handle for windows or upholstery the light was a godsend but this version doesn’t have it. Disappointed but it still has light on the sweeper part which is probably what it said and I assumed it would be on both handle and sweeper like the old version I have. I still love it as compared to regular upright vacuums. I just don’t like they took a great function away from the new version they are selling it as the best vacuum on the site, misleading!

I loved this vacuum the instant I bought it and I still love it. As someone with chronic pain and muscle weakness, I was hoping for a user friendly vacuum. My old shark kicked the bucket after 12 good years. I loved that vacuum, but this one was a major upgrade! I love the swivel which makes turning and getting into tight spots so much easier. Even though it’s one of shark’s heavier vacuums, it doesn’t feel like it. It moves forward easily, pulling itself along. The backward motion does take a little more effort but it’s manageable. The powered lift away is a game changer. It’s wonderful to be able to lift off the canister and hose and walk around wherever I need. Both are lightweight and easy to move around. And you have the whole length of the cord, not just the hose length! No worries about the vacuum falling over when you’re trying to reach someplace. The canister snaps back into place easily after you’re done with it. The vacuum seems powerful and good at getting down into carpet. And the HEPA filter is great for my dust mite allergies. I will recommend this vacuum to everyone I know.

Shark warranty is not quite a full warranty. Replaced an older Shark vacuum with this one. Initially I was very impressed; however, after only 3 months, the roller area (viewed through see-thru clear plastic) began collecting carpet/rug fibers/dirt and creating little balls of fibers. Since this vacuum allows no entry into that roller area to clean it (previous models did), it began interfering with the roller. I called Shark since the unit was under "full warranty." To my surprise, the warranty does not cover the roller part! For a hefty fee, they sent me a new lower vacuum part, which would replace the entire roller. So, fast forward 5 more months and the fiber balls are once again collecting inside the roller area. The vacuum is not even a year old. Not wanting to pay for another replacement part, I will look for another brand of vacuum. Not only does this latest Shark have a bad design flaw, but they do not warranty the main part of the vacuum. Look for a different brand.
