Is the SharkNinja NV105 good for pet hair?

Yes. Its corded suction and bagless bin handle pet hair on carpet and hard floors well. Empty the bin after heavy pet-hair jobs so airflow stays strong.

Does it need bags or replacement filters?

No bags. The filters are washable, so you rinse them instead of buying replacements. Let them dry fully before refitting.

How far does the cord reach?

The cord is 25 feet, enough to clean a large room from one outlet. You will still need to move the plug between rooms or floors.

Is it easy to carry upstairs?

It weighs 10.8 lb, which is on the heavy side for an upright. Carrying it up and down stairs is a chore for some owners.

How does it compare with cordless Shark uprights?

It keeps full suction as long as it is plugged in, while cordless models fade as the battery drains. Cordless models are lighter and easier to move around.
