Our Verdict
Shark ION F80 Cord-Free MultiFLEX
Dyson Cyclone V10
The Dyson Cyclone V10 is a better vacuum for cleaning carpeted surfaces than the Shark ION F80 Cord-Free MultiFLEX. The Dyson easily picks up more pet hair as well as small and large debris from low- to high-pile carpets. It's lighter, its dirt compartment is slightly larger, and it has virtually no recurring costs. It also comes with a lot more tools and brushes than the Shark. However, the Shark is better at cleaning bare floors, it feels better built, and it's easier to maintain. It can also maneuver around a room more easily than the Dyson.
