Enter the Shark Vertex. Not too expensive but far from cheap, the Vertex sits on the high-end of the Shark lineup with all the bells & whistles. Comes with a 30ft cord (5 ft longer than the average) seated in a much more useful position, powered Lift-Away, stretchier hose, the newer tangle-resistant dual roller, and....best of all....immense suction power! While the hose is longer and stretchier than the mid-range model I owned before, it could still be a bit longer. Very, very minor gripe here. I have been absolutely blown away by this vacuum. Every time I use it I can't help at marvel at the design features and wonder why no vacuum I've used before had them save for possible "built to a price" reasons. Disclaimer: I have mostly hard floors and just one carpeted room, stairs and one rug. Featuring a HEPA filter and coming in a stylish rose gold finish, the Shark HZ500UKT vacuum cleaner will help you get the job done. Dimensions & Weight Depth

PERFECT FOR PETS: Includes a self-cleaning Pet Power Brush for deep cleaning with no hair wrap and a Pet Crevice Tool to remove pet hair from hard-to-reach spaces like corners, ceilings, and between couch cushions.

You don't really appreciate what it means to have 5 extra feet of cord until you have it! Then there's the newer roller design that doesn't tangle. If you deal with pet hair like I do, this is a must-have feature. No need to keep that nasty set of scissors around for clearing out the rollers. Go ahead and toss them for good! And if you are a current Shark owner without "powered" Lift-Away, you'll appreciate being able to get under low-height furniture like coffee tables and entertainment centers without having to break out the hose attachment. Just engage the Lift-Away feature and the main vacuum head stays running with the ability to glide underneath. Simple and effective! Speaking of simple, the power button is now at your fingertips on the handle, with different settings for floor height. The dual-roller design uses a soft padded roller that easily collects hair, dirt, and cheerio-sized bits from tile and hardwood floors, including the little grout crevices between tiles. The front facing LEDs are a nice touch as well and fairly bright.

The collection bin is somewhat on the smaller side compared to my last Shark, but on the flipside, it does seem to empty better. It could also be that it fills faster because of how much it is actually collecting!

Alongside the DuoClean floorhead, Shark has included a range of tools to make everyday tasks easier. The Multi Surface tool will make light work of cleaning up mess on kitchen worktops and tables, while the crevice tool cleans awkward areas such as corners and skirting boards. Plus, there’s a dedicated Pet Tool which is designed to remove embedded pet hair from stairs, curtains, sofas and more. ANTI-ALLERGEN COMPLETE SEAL: Works with HEPA filter to trap 99.9% of dust and allergens inside the vacuum cleaner. (Based on ASTM F1977 of particles .3 microns or larger.) POWERED LIFT-AWAY: Detachable pod for motorized cleaning under furniture or detach the nozzle to clean above the floor, on upholstery, furniture, stairs, and more. What’s more, the HZ500UKT also features Flexology. At the touch of a button, this clever flexible wand bends easily to clean underneath low furniture such as beds, sofas, and coffee tables. Signature LED headlights in the floorhead help illuminate hidden dust, so you never miss anything. When you’ve finished cleaning, fold down the appliance for compact freestanding storage – no need for storage hooks or leaning against walls. Added Cleaning
