Is the battery removable and replaceable?

Yes. The IZ380EU uses a removable rechargeable pack, so you can swap in a charged battery or replace a worn one. Replacements are Shark-specific, not generic.

How long does it run on one charge?

Runtime depends heavily on the power mode. Expect the longest run in eco mode and only a few minutes on boost. A spare battery is the practical fix for large homes.

Does it work on carpet and hard floors?

Yes. It handles hard floors and low-pile carpet well. On deep-pile carpet, expect less deep-cleaning power than a corded upright.

Can it be used as a handheld?

Yes. The motorized handset detaches from the wand for stairs, cars and above-floor cleaning.

Yes. It has a bagless dust bin that you empty into the trash, so there are no bags to buy.

What comes in the box?

Typically the vacuum body, wand, motorized floor head, a crevice or dusting tool, and the battery with charger. Check the listing for the exact tool set.
