- What does Powered Lift-Away mean?
- The canister with the motor lifts off the upright body, so you can carry the suction and nozzle to stairs, upholstery and under furniture. The powered floor head keeps running in this mode.
- Does it work on hard floors and carpet?
- Yes. The DuoClean head has a soft roller for hard floors and a bristle roller for carpet, so you can move between them without swapping heads.
- Is it good for pet hair?
- Owners report strong pickup of pet hair on carpet and upholstery. The brush roll needs regular cleaning of wrapped hair to keep performance up.
- How does it compare with a Dyson upright?
- The Vertex offers similar carpet suction and more flexibility through lift-away mode, but it is heavier, louder and less refined in build than Dyson's premium uprights.
- Is it bagless?
- Yes. It uses a bagless dust cup that you empty into the trash, and the filters are washable.
- What comes in the box?
- The vacuum, the DuoClean powered floor head and Shark's above-floor tools such as a crevice tool and upholstery tool. Exact tools vary by version.
