Shark IZ662H Review | 52 Data compared

The Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight (IZ662H/IZ682H) is a highly versatile, lightweight cordless stick vacuum featuring a MultiFLEX wand for under-furniture cleaning and superior performance on bare floors and high-pile carpet. While it boasts a large dustbin and strong suction, the review notes cons including difficult-to-clean, non-removable brushrolls, lack of onboard tool storage, and inconsistent performance with fine debris on low-pile carpets.

The Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Stick Vacuum with PowerFins and Flexology is a versatile, mid-range cleaner featuring an effective anti-hair wrap system and a foldable, freestanding design. While offering strong, deep-cleaning capabilities on carpets via its silicone PowerFins, the model is hindered by a heavy handle, a small 0.4-liter, difficult-to-empty dust canister, and a tendency for the rear wheels to scatter debris.

According to Vacuum Wars, the Shark Vertex Pro Cordless is a high-performing mid-level vacuum that achieved near-perfect scores in hard floor and carpet cleaning tests, thanks to its DuoClean dual-roller technology. Key advantages include an active anti-hair wrap system, a flexible MultiFLEX wand, and a 38-minute runtime, while noted drawbacks include difficult pushing on high-pile carpets, unintuitive button placement, and high maintenance requirements for the brush rolls.

The Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight Cordless Stick Vacuum is a highly effective cleaner for all floor types, noted for its exceptional suction, lightweight design, and efficient anti-hair wrap technology. While praised for its compact folding design, large dustbin, and pet hair removal, the vacuum's high $449.99 price point is countered by a lack of automatic suction adjustment features found in newer competitors.

The Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight offers excellent swivel maneuverability and a user-friendly design, with its DuoClean dual-roller system excelling at removing debris from high-pile carpets, according to TechGearLab. However, the review notes significant cons, including reduced suction power and a weaker floor seal compared to top competitors, alongside a tendency for pet hair to tangle around the brush roller rather than entering the dustbin.

The RTINGS.com review compares the corded Shark Vertex UltraLight and cordless Vertex Pro Lightweight, noting that the UltraLight provides unlimited runtime, superior low-pile carpet performance, and a mini turbo brush, but lacks a HEPA filter and has limited range. Conversely, the Vertex Pro offers superior mobility, a larger dustbin, HEPA filtration, and better performance on bare floors and high-pile carpets, though it faces limited battery life and lacks a motorized upholstery tool.

The Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight outperforms the Shark Cordless Pet Plus IZ361H, featuring superior crack-cleaning via a dual-roller head, a flexible wand, stronger suction, and a longer-lasting battery with an LED display. While the Vertex Pro excels, its main disadvantages include a top-heavy design and a non-removable brushroll that makes removing hair wraps difficult. Conversely, the Pet Plus is less effective on carpets and lacks the high-end versatility of the Vertex. For the full comparison, visit RTINGS.

The RTINGS comparison highlights that the corded Shark APEX Upright offers superior debris pickup on low-pile floors with infinite runtime but is heavy and bulky, whereas the cordless Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight excels with a nimble MultiFLEX design and better performance on high-pile carpets, albeit with limited battery life.
