Our Verdict
Dyson V8
Shark Cordless Pro IZ562H
The Dyson V8 and Shark Cordless Pro IZ562H each have their advantages. The Shark feels better built, is easier to maintain, and has a much higher-capacity dustbin. There are a few extra convenience features not found on the Dyson, like an automatic power adjustment system and an odor-neutralizing cartridge. It also charges faster while offering a similar overall battery life. However, the Dyson is lighter, easier to maneuver, and has a broader assortment of tools.
