It’s daunting trying to find honest reviews and purchase advice for anything these days, vacuum cleaners included. Whenever I look at review sites that list the “top 10 vacuums” or something similar, Shark is always at or near the top of the list. Yet here and on YouTube channels run by vacuum repair people, Shark is always named as one of the worst choices for a vacuum, namely because they are not meant to be repaired.
Is this because Shark pays for good reviews? Even Consumer Reports, whom I generally trust for purchase because they don’t accept advertising money, lists Shark vacuums as more reliable than Sebo and on par with Miele.
Does Shark get good reviews because they work well until they fail? Please help me understand!
I'm curious if anyone has tried both and which is better and why. I have the ultra cyclone but am thinking of getting the wandvac.
I'd like something to take with me in my vehicle to clean it up while waiting for my next job.
I hear the wandvac is lighter and more powerful and batteries are swappable.
The vaccum: Shark CH901 Ultra Cyclone Pro Handheld Cordless https://imgur.com/gallery/Q4spsZJ
We already have a handheld shark vacuum, not sure of the model but it's red and black, also not cordless. I was browsing amazon for another handheld vaccum and came across this one which is a very nice green color, it's also cordless and lightweight - two things I was looking for as I am recovering from a chronic forearm/wrist strain.
CH901 is under $100 (budget) and seems to have good reviews. This vaccum also would work for the cat hair, and our hardwood floors/carpet rugs. Thanks!!
