Our Verdict
Dyson Cyclone V10
Shark Rocket Pet Pro
The Shark Rocket Pet Pro is slightly better than the Dyson Cyclone V10 for most uses. The Shark feels better built, has fewer parts that require regular maintenance, is equipped with a surface type adjustment function, is easier to maneuver, and delivers better overall performance on bare floors. Meanwhile, the Dyson is lighter, has a longer maximum battery life, and comes with more tools and accessories.
