Thank you! The slightly cheaper model is the NV352 - not NV532. Discovered this when searching.

Just got me a stratos cordless afraid to use since dog sheds so much. I have dyson v6 love it, but smells from dog hair and no light to see if missed spots. so got the stratos with flex head. So still using the dyson, and my shark vertex lift away. Got me a bissell pet pro wet vac. The corded version Love it oh how i thought my floors were clean.... not

Nice video. The Eureka WhirlWind Bagless doesn't do well with cat hair. It gets all stuck in the bagless canister and the suction goes down. I have to empty the canister a lot to keep the suction at a good level

My Shark Navigator was great for about 6 months. Then it had no suction. Checked for blockages and couldn't find anything.

Fyi if you purchase the B&D but have a different brand of cordless tools they make adapters for about everything and also B&D is owned by DeWalt and the battery's are very similar but just different enough not to be directly interchangeable but I'm sure there's a B&D to DeWalt adapter among others.

I was thinking about the Shark. Doing a load of research and thought ok the Shark clicks all the buttons and it does EXCEPT the rolling on carpet. They blew it without adding a height adj. Who thought that was a good idea? Esp. as this vac is rather bulky. No way am I going to be fighting my rug and this vac. I already have one (cheap Eureka airspeed) with no height adj. and the airspeed has great suctions but holy heck is it a pain to use on carpets and forget shag. On that note about the airspeed. DON'T GET if you plan on using on hardwood. Man it spits out everything out the back. So I'm now back to the drawing board and dumping Shark as it seems most of their uprights have no height adj??? Thanks for the vid!

Hey thanks for the videos they are very informative! I'm kind of wondering if you happen to do giveaway's with all these vacuums? If you do please let me know, I have a cleaning company and would be super interested lol! Thank you and have a wonderful day!

My current vacuum cleaner, a dirt devil vacuum cannister stand up, keeps getting clogged in the hose. The entire hose gets clogged. I have a lot of carpet in my house (it came with it). I get huge carpet fiber dust bunnies in the corners. It simply has trouble sucking it up. I want to buy a better vac, but i want a powerful enough vac that the hose doesnt constantly get clogged.

Shark navigator has a suction control on the handle

Where is your review on the Hoover OnePWR line of cordless upright vacuums?

[DaviCandy]

I actually DO vacuum long hair on a regular basis. (I vacuum for my mom and she has long hair)😊

[travismoreland]

The shark has a suction release valve instead of an adjustment

Please, please, please, always do "the seal test"

[sawssman]

do you know if the bissel xr200w is sealed?

[Sn]

My ol lady just picked up a cheap power force compact and it is the biggest POS I've ever seen, it clogs with pet hair short dog hair mind you and the canister is very loosely attached very sloppy connections and when you fire it up it looks like a mad bull it shoots fine dust out of the "seals" everywhere! It's not very satisfying to watch the dirt go from the floor and blasted into the air! I minswell use a leaf blower to clean the floor. What a waste of money worst part is on Amazon it has decent reviews so that's weird..🤔 hmmm. Great video thank you. BTW love you little home theater room that is sick, I would spend most of my off hours hours in there for sure.

I have 100$ wish vacuum do you recommend ?, just to clean dust in my apartment

[psfgtech]

Shark was great until fleas got in it, my Dirt Devil for me was quite awful and useless
