Our Verdict

Dyson Cyclone V10

Shark Cordless Pet Plus IZ361H

The Dyson Cyclone V10 is better than the Shark Cordless Pet Plus IZ361H for most uses. The Dyson weighs considerably less, is easier to maneuver, lasts longer on a charge, has a removable brushroll that's easy to clean, and comes with a wider array of attachments. It also exerts a stronger suction force, resulting in superior crevice-cleaning performance. However, the Shark feels sturdier, has a larger dirt compartment, and does a better job of picking up debris on high-pile carpets.
