Our Verdict

Shark Cordless Pet Plus IZ361H

Shark Cordless Pro IZ562H

The Shark Cordless Pet Plus IZ361H and Shark Cordless Pro IZ562H are similar vacuums, though the Cordless Pro is an improvement in most areas. The Cordless Pro has an automatic power adjustment system and is fitted with an odor-neutralizing cartridge. The Cordless Pro's fluffy brushroll is also fully removable, allowing it to clean cracks and crevices far more effectively than the Cordless Pet Plus.
