Which is better for carpet and rugs?

The Dyson V15 Detect has more suction, up to 240 air watts, and an anti-tangle Motorbar head, so it cleans carpet deeper. The Shark is rated for carpet and rugs and costs about $230 less.

Which is better for pet hair?

Both are sold for pet homes. The Shark's self-cleaning brushroll and PowerFins resist hair wrap, while the Dyson's Motorbar removes wrapped hair as you clean. The Dyson has stronger suction.

Is the Dyson worth the extra money?

Yes if you clean a lot of hard floor and want the laser head, dust sensor, and longer runtime. If you mainly vacuum carpet on a budget, the Shark at $239.96 does the job for about half the price.

Which has better filtration for allergies?

The Dyson uses sealed whole-machine HEPA filtration rated to trap 99.99% of dust and allergens. The Shark has a washable foam pre-motor filter and a HEPA post-motor filter, which is good but less comprehensive.

How long does each run on a charge?

The Shark runs 40 minutes and charges in 3 hours. The Dyson claims up to 60 minutes of fade-free runtime and charges in 4.5 hours; its listing also states 120 minutes, so expect real runtime to depend on power mode.

Which is easier to carry and store?

They weigh almost the same, 7.17 lb for the Shark and 7 lb for the Dyson. Both convert to handheld mode, and both have removable batteries.
