Tineco GO Slim Cordless Stick Vacuum vs Shark Rocket HV301 Corded Stick Vacuum

The Shark HV301 Rocket is the safer pick for most people. It has far more owner feedback and a much higher rating, and its corded design means full power for as long as you clean, with no battery to fade. The Tineco GO Slim wins on convenience: cordless, 7 lb, converts to handheld, and runs up to 40 minutes in ECO. But its 3.1 rating from 130 owners is a warning sign, and 40 minutes only holds in the lowest mode. Pick the Tineco for quick cordless touch-ups; pick the Shark for whole-home and pet-hair cleaning.

• Choose the Tineco GO Slim if you want a light cordless stick for fast daily pickups on hard floors and low-pile rugs, and you value the removable battery and handheld conversion over raw power.
• Choose the Shark HV301 Rocket if you have pets or wall-to-wall carpet and want nonstop suction, a 25-foot cord and swivel steering without worrying about runtime.
