Our Verdict

Dyson V7

Shark Pet/Rocket Pro Cordless [IX141, UZ155, WZ240]

The Dyson V7 and Shark Cordless Pet IX141 each have their advantages. The Dyson is easier to maintain thanks to its removable brushroll, weighs noticeably less, is easier to maneuver, and does a better job of filtering out allergens thanks to its HEPA filter. Meanwhile, the Shark does better cleaning carpeted floors, has a larger dustbin, and has a marginally longer battery life.
