Shark Stratos Upright Corded Vacuum REVIEW - Vacuum Wars

[@VacuumWars]

Shark Stratos at Amazon: geni.us/B6Nj4Ns

[@Jen7867]

Hello sir, I just wanted to be sure to thank you for your videos. Your methods, explanations, and visual demos of how you test all of these vacuums are second-to-none. I watched several of your videos this evening, and you have helped me to make the best decision for my needs. I'm not exaggerating when I say that your videos have cut my research from maybe about a week to just an hour or two. So thank you so much!!!

[@VacuumWars]

That is so good to hear. thank you so much.

[@Brian-tt2qb]

To anyone who looks at this video and is still wondering if its worth the money to get it then I will say yes it is. I had been sick for sometime now and have three pets to tend to as well. The shark stratos was put to its absolute limit with how much hair and dust it had to suck up and after multiple dust bin dumps that filled up an entire trash bag I can say that this vacuum cleaner is worth every single penny today. Its versatility with going from carpet to hard flooring was tremendously helpful along with the power lift away. The turbo brush attachment turned cleaning the furniture off less of a chore and more so fun. Needless to say watching VacuumWars video had helped me make a decision since I'm going from a 80$ vacuum cleaner that's many years old to a now top of the line model that works wonders.

[@VacuumWars]

So good to hear this! thank you!

[@nathanddrews]

We love our older Shark vacuum. It's really similar to this one, even the color. We also have a Shark robot vacuum that does really well. Without even trying, we've become pretty loyal customers.

[@melindasmith3713]

I thought mine was old , I saw on website I bought in 2019 ! It's still great ! I want a new one now .

[@PatonCavaney]

The vertex's appearance & design just looks more modern

[@JPro194]

I have gone through 3 vertex vacuums. The first lost suction but would turn on after first use. Returned it right away and they gave me a new one... 2nd one the belt broke and the brush stopped spinning. Returned it and got a new one. Last one just died yesterday. motor blew it wont even turn on now. I have lost all faith in that vacuum. I'm going to try something else.

[@raginginferno868]

@@JPro194 I dont know man, you must be doing stuff to that vacuum. I have had the same shark for 5 years, and with periodic maintenance, it runs great. Gonna get a new one soon tho

[@Keeping-It-Real-55]

@@JPro194 Are you using your vacuum for a business? That is crazy I heard the Vertex was amazing. I'm only looking at the Stratos because its one of the newest models now.

[@DamiontheSpawn]

I bought this vacuum litteraly at 3am today XD so glad you say its good. Got my directly from shark for under $500 shipped, it came with the whole set of bonus attachments and a "Free" steam mop".

[@Texas_Made_]

LOL I like how you quoted "free"☠️😅

[@HenryCalderonJr]

I got mine also with all the extras package and used the 15% discount instead of the 60 dollar so save a few extra bucks

[@lilnic804]

Does it have a led flashlight on handle wand? Like the apex did

[@jenjenny79]

I just purchased that same deal and am using mine for the first time today. And, WOW! It's absolutely the best vacuum I've ever owned and in this multiple pet household, that odor eliminator is really noticeable. The room not only looks clean but now the air smells CLEAN. It's lovely.

[@Michellebellaa]

I just ordered mine! I saw it about a month or so ago and this is the 1st review. I ordered the same package you did. I can't wait for it to arrive and retire my 10 year old Shark that never lost suction.

[@rpjordan]

Probably the best, most efficient review I have ever seen on the internet. I thank you my good sir.

[@VacuumWars]

Wow, thanks!

[@jenjenny79]

I ordered this version thanks to your review and it just arrived last night. So far, I'm really impressed. It's the best vacuum I've ever owned. And in my multiple pet household, this is the first time vacuuming has not only left the room looking clean but made the air smell clean too. That odor eliminator is a game changer! I love it. I ordered directly from Shark and got an amazing deal that included loads of extra attachments and a stream mop. Totally worth it. I'm very very happy with this and thank you for this and all your other reviews. You made this choice easy for me!

[@VacuumWars]

That is great to hear! Thanks!

[@Michellebellaa]

I noticed the new stratos on sharks website and did not see any video reviews. I honestly believe you are the 1st to make one! I waited for your review and immediately ordered this vacuum direct just now. I have an old shark that worked like beast mode for the past 10 years and I finally broke it pretty good. I could probably just order replacement parts but after 10 plus years its time for the latest and greatest model! Plus I have a dog, cat and I personally have waist length hair so I am unbelievably excited for the zero hair tangle feature! Thank you! I love your reviews, you create excellent content!

[@VacuumWars]

Thanks! Hope you enjoy your new vacuum!

[@emmanuelsurillo5502]

How does it compare to the vertex? The vertex has a 12in brush roll while the Stratos has a 10in brush roll. Do you think that is why the Stratos has a slightly better pickup on carpets? Which one would you recommend, the Stratos or Vertex for cleaning pretty large carpeted areas with lots of foot traffic? Also which one "feels" better? In sense of build quality? I know this is a vague question, but it still has some merit to it. It seems as if they are pretty similar. I just need a good workhorse. I am welcoming anyone for suggestions.

[@MrAllOut20]

One aspect I think you should add to your reviews, at least for shark vacuums, is if the handle has lights on it. I had the apex duo clean which had led lights on the handle, and I replaced it with the vertex when it came out. I was quite disappointed with shark, that they removed the lights on the handle with the vertex. It's a very under appreciated feature on a vacuum for it comes in handy so many times especially when using the handle when vacuuming under furniture and such where it's dark. I've purchased every new shark vacuum since my 1st one with the rotator. But until they put lights back on the handle, I'll be skipping out on the Stratos. The apex duo clean is still the top shark vacuum for me because of that.

[@stumbino8361]

That's a lot of replacements. Sharks are great for adding to the landfills.

[@MrAllOut20]

I wouldn't know if they go to landfills or not. I've sold, donated, and gave my replacements to family.

[@stumbino8361]

@@MrAllOut20 I don't buy them they are junk.

[@jay-el-bee]

I agree with you. I have only had 1 Shark, have had it for over 7 years and I love that it has the handle light. I wouldn't buy another vaccuum without one. :)

[@kristinjacquard1422]

This and being able to remove the brush roll cover, on the floor nozzle, to clean it!

[@BMETFerg]

It's going to take a lot to consider upgrading from my Apex w/ Zero M, absolutely love that vacuum. I think it was a poor choice removing the LED light from the handle when using with accessories.

[@Sonica212]

I agree. And you can't open up the brushroll cover like you can on the Apex. The only good thing I can notice on this one is that might be able to replace the small wheels easier on the floor nozzle as they wear out pretty easily. Apex is still better then the Vertex and Stratos.

[@InexactPrizm]

I was looking for this comment! I keep seeing videos comparing this to the vertex but not the Apex. I absolutely love my Apex and I got it from Shark directly with lifetime warranty. I didn't realize this one didn't open where the brush roll is or have an led on the handle. Made my decision right there! Thanks for the info

[@prerecordedresponse9884]

I love my Apex. Upgrading to it from a $100 bissell was the best thing we ever did. I can't see the need to upgrade either. If you're jumping up to this price range though, you can't go wrong with Sharks models from the Apex onward.

[@213BRANDONP]

I have this too model az1000 its one of the best the light on the wand is sweet

[@theleefamily6446]

I was wondering this as well. I currently have an AZ1002 but it will no longer stand up on its own.

[@shanew7361]

Best vacuum I've ever owned, i love mine!

[@VacuumWars]

Glad you are happy with it!

[@Blackheartvacs]

I cannot help but notice that you've not included the airflow at the head measurement in both this and the Dyson animal 3 reviews. I think it's far more important to know what you're getting for airflow at the surface than at the hose.

[@Accuaro]

Ikr, he didn't even really compare the two either

[@johnslife4993]

Put this against the Ball Animal 3

[@HenryCalderonJr]

Yes please

[@viralpatel5338]

Shark duocleans are best in all category vacuums.

[@thatvacuumgeek]

@John Machotka Sharks are better . Carpet and hardwood floor. Duoclean is OP!

[@stumbino8361]

Sharks suck, they don't deep clean very well. My new Dyson unearthed so much cat hair that a shark can't do, even this one.

[@compromisedmission]

I bought the Dyson Animal 3 and the new Shark Stratos. All I will say is I returned the Dyson. The Stratos hands down picks up much more pet hair than the Dyson did. In fact it's not even close plus the Shark is much better on our hard floors. The Shark is also much easier to maneuver around obstacles and believe it or not having a light on it actually is a benefit. I was always a Dyson person but the Shark 🦈 won me over.

[@pauljones9150]

Good stuff. Great footage. Was hoping for a price and performance comparison to Dyson

[@Psychochiquita]

Wait, but how loud is it? I settled on getting the duo clean after your review on it and was so ecstatic that I could have a conversation while running it, or still be able to listen to my shows while cleaning. I'm surprised a decibel measurement wasn't included in this one, I could've sworn it's been done before for other reviews.

[@StuffTested]

So far with my shark duoclean (over 1 year old) with the anti hair tangle and my significant other with long hair below her shoulders 12" - 18" and I think it's only had like 5 strands of hair "tangled" in the time I've had the vacuum. Now they just need to upgrade their parts (repairability) warehouse and maybe start to focus on product longevity. I would love to be able to use a shark vacuum like this for 10+ years.

[@stumbino8361]

Just buy a Dyson.

[@DillonCleans]

From what I’ve seen this vacuum seems to be just like the vertex which I absolutely LOVE! Recently bought the animal 3 so will wait a little bit of time before purchasing this one. But I certainly have it on my planner. I’m still using my vertex every day and it is the best vacuum I’ve ever purchased. It’s seriously that good. I am planning a competition video between a few sharks like I did with some of my Dysons and I know the vertex will come out on top. Thank you for an awesome review as always!

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

I want this type of vacuum but there’s some things that I’m weary of: 1. Inaccessible brushroll for carpet agitation 2. I’m concerned about how long a vacuum like this would last before needing to be replaced. However it seems like a good buy.

[@DillonCleans]

@@charlesrodriguez7984 the vertex have had actually quite good carpet agitation and this one seems to clean better. So I don’t see that ad a con. And these machines are built quite well so I don’t imagine them needing to be replaced very often

[@bradhepper]

@@DillonCleans our floor head only lasted 3 years and we have 2 other vacuums.

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

@@DillonCleans I meant that the brushroll isn’t removable.

[@DillonCleans]

@@charlesrodriguez7984 yes it isn’t removable hit under normal use you generally shouldn’t need to remove it. But it would be nice if that always an option

[@coltmiller4127]

I just ordered the Stratos for the odor neutralizing feature. My last 2 vacuums have developed an odor from the exhaust and I always clean the bin after use, change filters, and make sure the vacuum is clean over all. I have a few dogs so I assume it's from their hair that the odor develops. Hopefully this solves the problem since changing a cartridge every 6 months is cheaper than a vacuum every 2 years or so

[@VacuumWars]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@ThatsPety]

a year later, im curious if these ended up solving your problem in the long run. Can we get an update? How well has it been working for you?

[@hurchel]

I got one yesterday, it is working well, but I had two Shark rockets with powered liftaway, could not find a powered liftaway for less than 300.00 purchased it, but miss the lighter weight of the shark rocket.. Got the Stratos for the 299.00 special

[@devinmoodley4061]

I bought a Shark Duoclean a few years ago based on your review and I LOVE IT!! I've been considering upgrading to the Stratos and I'm glad it performed so well

[@VacuumWars]

Great to hear that you are happy with it! I hope you are happy with whatever you choose!

[@timkabatra3126]

I got my stratos 3 days ago (my first ever shark) and I love it!!!! Makes a big difference over the $75 Bissell turbo helix rewind I replaced.

[@shaggyfilms]

I would love to see that glow in the dark allergen test they did in the Shark Promo you clipped on your channel. I find it interesting that they did that for the cheap vacuum but not for theirs.

[@blkbrn1952]

Two years later and mine just arrived today, much cheaper than the original price. I am so pleased and even more so when I saw how I could vacuum under my furniture. Previously I had a cordless and it had poor suction so I'm really happy this picks up everything I have tried it on.

[@VacuumWars]

Glad to hear it!

[@laffywaffy1989]

I may upgrade to this once my vertex kicks the bucket but so far it still works and best vacuum i have gotten over the years

[@functionaldoc5054]

Please do a comparison on Dyson Ball Animal 3 vs the Shark Vertex , Ever thought of doing a durability test on the various vacuums.

[@VacuumWars]

Thank you for the suggestion!

[@jhokvir5869]

Love this new design from Shark, it seems pretty neat! I'd be interested in seeing how this new model stands up to the other high end Sharks as well as how it stands up to the new Dyson Ball 3 in a head-to-head video.

[@RobertBeedle]

Just found out why I can't get one!! Haha been long awaiting your review on this and was ready to by one before seeing this it because they have a sweet deal on it right now but I had my order canceled 3 times because it's been out of stock the past 3 days. After seeing your review I'm sure a lot of your subscribers have taken the plunge due to your stellar review of this new vacuum! Was debating just getting the vertex cause I don't know when the stratos will be back in stock but now I'm torn seeing your review maybe it's worth the wait but my vacuum is on its last leg so I don't have long to wait!! 🙏🏽

[@thatvacuumgeek]

the vertex is just as good. Better actually

[@jorgebarrios-fy4it]

If you had to buy one, would you pick the stratos or the Dyson animal 3? Thank you!!

[@eaterofcrayons7991]

The best thing to test the odor neutralizer would be curry powder, when vacuumed it can become even more pungent

[@kathleenl1325]

Are the brushes on the main roller soft, like on the Vertex, or stiff, like on most vacuums (the Navigator 352 for example)? Performance on carpet is my top priority. IMO the power fins and soft brushes are the reason the Vertex performance on carpet isn't top notch. Any advice appreciated.

[@user-rm9bu5xo2q]

Excellent review, thanks for sharing. Excited to get this one in the mail soon!

Hope you enjoy it!

[@abelp1990]

Hello, I’m trying to decided between this one and the corded stick vacuum, I wanted to know how much more suction does the regular vacuum compare to the corded stick. Thank you!

[@VacuumWars]

We haven't looked at the corded stick as of yet! Sorry!

[@TheUberSchattenjager]

A couple of PROs not mentioned, at least in regard to the Stratos vs Vertex: The head of the vertex is narrower at the leading edge, giving the Stratos a little better reach under appliances and low furniture. The second PRO is the hose. The Stratos is a bit more more supple and expands more easily without rebounding the vacuum over on its side.

[@VacuumWars]

Cool input! Thanks!

[@realnepeta]

Shark stands behind their products. I have a Shark Rotator powered lift away from 2014, and because of the 7 year warranty, they gave me a new motor free of charge when it died. Literally a 3 minute phone call and all I had to tell them was that my vacuum didn’t turn on and they sent a motor. Definitely going to get a Shark when I need another vacuum. I don’t feel the need to get a new one since this one is very similar to mine.

Does anyone know if the hoses are better quality on the Stratos? My previous shark vacuums always develop split hoses. I take care and maintain the vacuums but the hoses at the head and wand area split from use its annoying. Great video.

[@crisper1614]

I miss the shark powered lift away speed. It’s smaller form factor made working with it easier. As well as the smaller powered head fitting under more chairs. (I do commercial cleaning)

[@AshleiShipp]

I would love to see a comparison of the stratos upright versus cordless. You seem to have them nearly number one with respect to cordless versus corded. I would love to know which is better between cordless or corded or if it is simply a preference or a difference in power. Power might just be better for carpet maybe?

[@TaylorBallweg]

I have 50% shag carpeting in ny home and I'm needing a good vaccum that can pull ground in pet hair and cat litter out of the carpet.

Nothing I've ever seen prevents vacuum odor if you have pets except a thorough cleaning of the vacuum inside and out. My Dyson stick vac was one of the most resistant to vacuum stench, but even that one needed to be taken apart and given a good cleaning every few months. You cannot cover vacuum stench with a perfume capsule.

[@remingtonlarson9265]

Would you choose it over the apex?

[@Pinkapotomus]

I wish it came with a soft, long bristled brush attachment for dusting.

[@AS-mv2hv]

Interested in hearing what you would recommend between the Dyson Animal 3 vs the Stratos. I have about 80% carpet. Both Dyson and Shark have good deals going this month and I’d like to purchase one ASAP (i.e., before you likely have time to make a head to head video or do the 2022 upright winner video).

[@Specter1031]

What did you go with? I'm 50/50 carpet and tile. I'm leaning towards Stratos because I'm renting and might not have carpet at all next place. I still think about the Dyson because i think it has the edge in carpet cleaning. We have pets and wife's allergies to them have gotten worse in the past couple years

[@Specter1031]

Also Stratos $299 right now for the more basic version. Also, the Vertex Pro Cordless looks interesting and I could use for my car.

I have the vertex. Would I gain anything from up grade? And do you know will the attachment from the vertex work? I have the mini pet motor for the vertex and love that.

Thank you so much for all of your work. Wondering if it is worth spending the extra money on the Stratos over the Vertex if I have all hardwood floors with just a couple of low area rugs. Definitely need something good for pet hair, but not really long where I am concerned with tangling. THANKS!

Thank you so much for all your number-based testing. This gives me complete confidence in buying vacuums every time.

Its quite frustrating and I wonder if that issue has been solved with the Shark Stratos?

[@lachicagato]

After watching your videos I started to consider getting a shark, however when checking the reviews in Amazon I have boticed that some people complains that after 2 years the hose breakes and the vacuum stops working. Could it be an issue in the use or that the vacuum is designed to fail after such time? Which vacuum can last you for several years?

[@Frenchfrys17]

Vacuums from Sebos and Miele will generally last twice as long and are build more rugged than Sharks or Dysons. But the tradeoff is that they cost alot more (over double the price) and aren't any better in cleaning performance than the best models from Dyson or Shark.

i purchased this 6 months ago and it's a game changer. Definitely better than the previous Shark 5 years ago. My only disappoint is the handheld brush. It's not strong, it keeps getting stuck.

[@KaffeinatedENT]

Any suggestions for vacuuming shaggy rugs?

[@XudenGroupLLC]

Can you get access to the large roller brush? Dust and dog hair still gets stuck in the Vortex and you cannot access the large roller.

[@sgreen4865]

The last thing you said was that it was expensive. It doesn't seem too costly to me. I got my Shark Vertex and it was like $630. This one seems much less. I would get this but my Vertex is still going strong

[@VacuumWars]

Good to hear you are still happy with the Vertex. Those prices really do fluctuate over time.

[@pitbullmom213]

Can it be broken down and cleaned like the apex? That was the biggest disappointment for me with the vertex as we have 15 dogs i vacuum a lot and know my product needs cleaning

[@Lee-lb9qh]

Lol ya it's got power and a good no tangle brush roll, I sucked up a plastic Walmart bag on accident, it never clogged or tangled, I had to pull the bag out of the dust cup 😂

[@VacuumWars]

Nice! Been there done that!

[@senseiDi]

Ok I live in EU and I want to buy this or Vertex model... but I can`t find the vacuums you are testing.... I find az3000/30002 and the 2002 and 913UKT.... you are talking about 1400W power and the specs on the ones I find are 750-800W..... can you advise please?!

[@parthg1397]

Is the hose made of metal or cheap plastic?

[@garrettsinger2509]

Can you review the new bissell hydrosteam carpet cleaner and hydrosteam crosswave

[@Lizzy43645]

I think I speak for everyone when I say “we need to see more cat nip testing with the fur babies” 😻😹😽

[@jenjenny79]

Yes! That kitty looked identical to my first fur baby and was probably the reason I decided this model was perfect for me. MORE cat nip testing, please!

[@jeramiahcastrowiththenerfr6072]

You forgot a fetcher and it's a clog fetcher that the vacuum is clogged the LED light on the floor head will tern Red

[@Rocket_Fan]

Found a seller (BuyDig) selling these on eBay for around %50 of new. So I took the plunge.....hope it works out! Thanks for the review! Enjoyed the cat too!

[@Boxerr54]

This sounds good. I want a cordless. When will be get a cordless Stratos liftaway?

[@e2U]
