I would love to see a repairability score! Consumers are wising up and we would like our products to last instead of being throw away consumables. Thats would be great information to add to all the other vacuum wars test scores

[@MrFastFox666]

100% agree. All these fancy features are great, but is it really worth it if they brick the vacuum when they break in 3 years?

[@匿名的-1]

Sharks are usually the throwaway kind. Minus the affordability they had 5-10 years ago.

[@CharlesBojangles]

Let’s be honest. Most of the vacuums reviewed on this channel are hardly repairable, and pretty much disposable.

[@QH96]

Him not talking about repairability is disappointing

[@ShouPow]

Repairability and the existence of canister vacuums are such a huge omission from this channel. It's really disappointing to see someone talking with authority on vacuum purchasing but completely ignoring ownership 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@joshuavang279]

As much as I love your reviews and have been following you for years, please talk about customer service reliability and parts replacement. I've bought my shark apex vacuum years ago due to your awesome review. However, when it comes to ordering replacement parts the Shark company has failed in this aspect with customer service support. This has been a frustration since then and I'm weary of wanting to buy a new vacuum from Shark. I believe your loyal followers, including myself, would appreciate your insight regarding these overlooked categories. Thank you so much for your product reviews all these years!!!!

[@DonivanCurtis900]

Honestly, there are much better cleaning and more reliable machines than Shark. Shark designs these to fail and then doesn't honor the warrantee or provide replacement parts. I would recommend the Dyson Ball Animal 3, Amway Workhorse, Sanitare SL4110A, or if you want something cheaper a bagged Bissell Powerforce. All these will work better than any Shark, and they will provide replacement parts and honor the warrantee if it fails which is not as likely with these.

[@alexanderjamieson7971]

Don't buy a bagless vaccum. Modern HEPA bags in modern vaccums are the way to go. Sebo, Numatic (Nacecare), Miele, Oreck, some Hoovers, Lindhaus, are better

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

Shark performance is amazing but repairability is bad unlike older versions. The standard brushroll is not removable, lack of parts and bad warranty service. It’s unfortunate because they have such cool designs.

[@fZionists78]

If you’re worried about repairs, you’re in the commercial industry. So why are you watching consumer reviews?

[@paul8161]

​​@@fZionists78people want things repairing, that doesn't mean you're in the commercial sector no..if you can get it fixed you do or it means replacement which costs more again, its called using your money wisely..plus the person you replied to can watch what they like as can you.

[@nsbd90now]

The rise of Shark vacuums is kind of amazing. I sure like mine, which is older and still going strong, but this is sure a tempting upgrade.

[@brody2642]

Don’t. For $50 more you could get a Sebo which will last you 10+ years and is MEANT to be repaired, not THROWN away!

[@JonasGrumby]

The real question to be answered is can both rollers be removed to get to clogged debris and for cleaning the unit? All these Sharks are a nightmare to keep clean.

[@RADRaze2KX]

I bought my Apex based on your review of it, then the Vertex came out... I STILL have my apex but it largely sits unused because I've also bought robot vacuums based on your reviews. Now the Apex is primarily used for the staircase. My Apex STILL hasn't ever had a hair wrap issue, even with 6 (previously 7) furry animals (RIP Yukina), and 3 people with long hair in the house. I literally loan it out to friends that need to deep clean their apartments during move outs or spring cleanings. This PowerDetect looks absolutely INSANE. Thank you for making the awesome video, as always!

[@jaytime1051]

Glad to see they put the light back on the handle like the Apex. The stratos did not have it and it drove me nuts lol.

[@kylewelleman]

As an owner of a small cleaning company, I instantly subscribed and am in love with this channel! I own the PowerDetect, and the carpet Xpert with stain striker, and they both have made me a lot of money 💰 and I am obsessed with them both. I’ll be glued to your channel, thanks for the content!

[@sprockkets]

@Bear10785 only downside worth sebo for the us, for example, is that the d4 airbelt with powerhead can cost $1400, but in the uk, it's only $600. Cheaper in Canada too, and they get more colors.

[@jmgreuner]

Really great review! I have a 2 year old Stratos model which I LOVE. The suction is incredible and effortlessly moving from rug to hard floors is extremely everyday stuff for me. I'm considering the PowerDetect as a gift for my daughter, but it looks like it's not any improvement on the Stratos except for some gimmicky bells and whistles. The edge cleaning does sound good though. The Stratos is a fantastic vacuum and I can't quite decide if the extras in the PowerDetect are worth the extra $$$.

[@VacuumWars]

So glad you are happy with that Stratos! The smart features on the powerdetect are a lot like ones we have seen on high end cordless vacuums - it will be interesting to see how everyone responds to them on an upright!

[@liupeter8039]

hello, I am the design manager of stratos and power detect, very glad to see you love stratos, also I will recommend power detect for your next purchasing, power detect also has a hided function of articulating squeegee, which can help you cleaning dirt at pull stroke and improve your cleaning speed.

[@IDIoilburner]

@vacuumwars have you ever tested one of the old Kirby's against a modern vacuum cleaner?

[@speedracer9132]

Are there any vacuums with motorized, not suction powered, attachments?

[@jennifersenda616]

Yes, a a lot of vacuums do but most of them that do have motorized attachments like upholstery tools, are cordless vacuums

[@NobleNobbler]

Damn, does this thing have an OBD2 port because we might need it

[@mikeg3888]

Lots of unnecessary features that’s are not needed on a corded vacuum like the dirt detect and edge cleaning. These are crucial for battery stick vacuums where battery life and power consumption count, but corded vacuums do not need to ramp up and down to save power so running at 100% power negates those 2 features. I’ll stick with my Shark Vertex. (Which I bought based of your review) - keep up the good work!

[@reaperreaper5098]

Eh, I look at Dirt Detect ramping the vac up and down as just being a simple way of telling you when the carpet is essentially clean. It's more noticeable than some other solutions, like poorly placed LEDs. Definitely something for nitpicky people.

[@liupeter8039]

Hello, I am the power detect product design manager, thanks for your comments, at the beginning, I had the same thoughts as you, but finally we think this new feature will do help users to improve push/pull force feeling, since most time, if your home is not very dirt, the vacuum will run at a lower suction which can help decrease push/pull force and this is a big challenge for Shark previous upright products

[@bigwilliearmitage]

@@liupeter8039 I doubt you will reply, but what does the long-term testing show about the constant switching involved with power detect? It seems like significant additional wear and tear on the entire powertrain to have constant power fluctuations. I won't be surprised if this feature is removed from future models due to this added component stress.

[@Coopersx1]

@@liupeter8039 Is their a bypass mode?

[@micahnorth713]

Just bought mine today. Price wise there was a $100 promo on Shark’s website, which made the purchase $299 before tax for the standard attachments. Cheaper than the Apex, Vertex and Stratos on Amazon with that promo.

[@Miked1332]

I hate that some manufacturers are doing this "detect" stuff. Why wouldn't you want full power all the time? 99% of the time, the up and down of power kills the motor faster and usually doesn't work very well. My Ryobi lawn mower is a great example. If it comes across a thick part of grass, it cranks the power up but because it has a ramp-up time, by the time the speed reaches its peak, you're already past the thick part and have to go back over it. It's ridiculous. These features are along the same lines as auto start/stop in cars. It doesn't really help, it only burns the engine out faster.

[@jdmgsr05]

I have the stratos battery powered .. how does it compare

[@Onii-chans-neko]

It might not make a good video, but i would be interesting in seeing how much a flagship vacuum like this could pick up, AFTER a robot vacuum had a pass at it. (Like see how much the robot vacuum couldn't get/etc)

[@319.e]

We have a Neato d4 on one floor and a roomba i7 on the other floor. Where the carpet is, our shark apex does get a decent amount more after the robots are done. We usually go about once every other week with the full size upright to keep up on the missed spots. Also we haven’t had luck with the edges and corners of rooms with robots so they tend to be dog hair traps at our house.

[@Instegone]

I have the Statros Upright and recently got the Dirt Detect Handheld w/ Auto Empty Base. I'll definitely pick this up if it goes on a decent sale.

[@kelleycleansitall4970]

$100 off with promo on the basic package on their website. I paid $299 instead of $399. I didn’t need the $499 version with all of the fancy tools and steam mop. Plus that one was only $60 off. I’m anxiously awaiting for it to arrive!

[@UHSftball54]

My 2013 shark corded has been the best vacuum Ive ever owned. Was blown away that it’s almost impossible to get replacement parts now that things are wearing out, and you have to rely on knock off amazon replacement filters. Received a shark cordless stick vacuum as a wedding gift, same thing… almost zero parts, a horrible website and support. Ready for something better and more robust.

[@paul_london]

I have to say its really impressive, Shark seems to be on top of the game. I have a similar style Shark cordless vacuum - good quality and very versatile with lift away feature. Considering buying a corded one for once a month deep cleaning.

[@fracturedmind8124]

My Hoover Windtunnel that I’ve had for years has 2 settings, on and off. And instead of a bin I have to empty every single time I use the thing I have a bag I change like every 3 or so months. Slamming more features into a vacuum doesn’t make it better. It just makes it more likely to poop itself in a year.

[@ArchiezAviation]

Still the same inefficient cyclone that lets lots of dirt get to the filter, Don’t get it and go for a Dyson if you want cleaner filters

[@patricksingh9069]

I agree

[@raider1063]

Dysons have had a significant decrease in quality the last few years. They seem to be focusing their effort on the cordless and roomba type vacuums. Hell, even check their own site , specifically their flagship animal-ball 2-3. Reviews are BAD recently for their upright models.

[@bigwilliearmitage]

@@raider1063 Yep. I tried the Animal 3 in store and the mechanism to drop the head is just bad. You essentially force the entire unit downward on the rear wheels and BANG the front drops. No lever or toe press area. This will no doubt get weak over time. Even pushing the store model into a transition strip between hard floor and carpet caused the wheels to "catch" and the head dropped. This design is just too finicky.

[@TheFrenchGlow]

I said the same thing in my review! Best Shark upright Vac Ever. The Key for the DETECT feature is that the VAC changes speeds and power on its own. So you can vacuum the whole house without having to change any settings. Seems like a small thing but when you use it, it really does help with performance. Great review!

[@n123896]

I purchased the Shark Vertex. At first I was really impressed. But after over 2 years of using it I can identify a lot of things I dislike about the Shark. 1. The hose is too short. It tumbles over and can’t reach everywhere. I know it can be used in lift away mode, but that gets heavy. I much preferred having the long hose on my previous Dyson upright and not carrying the machine around. 2. The power fins are great for hard floor. But, the machine does not groom carpet nearly as well as a traditional brushes especially thick carpets. 3. The pre filters seem to get dirtier much quicker than my previous Dyson. 4. The dirt cup is messier than expected. Also hair and other gunks often get wrapped around the metal cone on the top of the bin and then you have to reach in and pull it all out. This sometimes happened on the Dyson but not nearly as often. I think Shark improves the design since my model but the rectangle tank is not as good as round. Things don’t just fall out you have to reach and pull it out if it’s close to full or if there is a lot of hair and not heavy debris. 5. The attachments do not work nearly as well as other vacuums. For example, the power fins on the handheld pet hair tool are weak. If you’re cleaning car carpet that are really dirty the power fins do not groom the dirt out. The only reason it spins so fast is because they are hardly touching or grooming anything they touch. I found the Dyson attachments to be far superior for actually cleaning. Also the handle makes it hard to maneuver in tight spaces. The crevice tool also has like spikes on it and it scratches things if you’re not careful. 6. While the brush roll is self cleaning for hair you cannot take it apart to clean it or get objects unstuck. Only the front roller comes off. If stuff gets stuck you got to hope you can poke something in there to get it out otherwise I guess you’ll have to call Shark? We have had wrappers and other things get vacuumed up and you have to tinker with it for several minutes to try to get it unstuck from the back brush. Also, you have to regularly clean the front roller because it gets build up. Having a brush that just pops out is easier to maintain. If you have only hard floors and don’t do much above floor cleaning they are great! But if you plan to vacuum traditional carpeting or do above floor cleaning I’d suggest considering a different brand. The power lift away is great for quick cleaning but if you plan on cleaning stairs, cars, couches, curtains, ceiling fans and etc you’ll quickly realize a long hose is superior to a short hose with a heavy machine to try and carry. This also applies to the Dyson hand held it seemed great at first but it’s actually very tiring trying to carry it around to clean. I will go back to a more traditional upright next time I get a new vacuum. Just my opinion 🤷

[@gagelibbey4872]

I'd say get a miele or a sebo, they have uprights but the canisters are the way to go. Just so you know they're very expensive compared to these and I could understand someone not spending 4 figures for a vacuum. But the miele/sebo will last 10-20 years and they're known for being some of the most powerful and best cleaning vacuums, and super quiet. They're also bagged vacuums but bagged are better tbh there's a lot less maintenance, no cleaning canister required, filters hold up a long time, and they hold they're suction power.

[@QH96]

@@gagelibbey4872 sebo should make a vacuum, that combines the feature of a Shark with best of a Sebo. The company seems to be sitting on its hands. A powered lift away sebo felix with a long hose, built in pole, lights, anti hair wrap fins, anti hair wrap comb, washable hepa filters, etc. would be awesome. the x7 is dead on arrival because it doesn't have a microswitch to turn its brush roll off when its upright. The company seems to be sleeping. I respect their repairability thou.

[@kylewelleman]

Interesting insight

[@prerecordedresponse9884]

I gotta say, the hose Shark uses for their hand tools is awful. It's so stiff that if you pull on it to extend it, it pulls the vacuum onto the ground. Dyson figured out how to make a hose that extends without pulling the vacuum over a decade ago. Other than that, their vacuums are amazing. I've had the Apex since it came out and it's been a champ.

[@Instegone]

I think it's pretty good at least compared to the Dyson hoses. I have 2 Dyson uprights and the hoses are horrible with the stability on the Ball models.

[@prerecordedresponse9884]

@@Instegone I can't speak for the ball models, but I had a DC07 that I found in a dumpster that had a better hose than my Apex.

[@Blackout720]

@@Instegone And I completely disagree. With a Dyson you can vacuum whole mattress with the vacuum resting on the floor. With a Shark, hose is too short so you have to hold the vacuum close to you.

[@Skeeeyeeee420]

I agree with the Dyson having a longer hose, having said that the hose on it has deteriorated and has tears in it. When I tried to order the replacement hose online it said it was out of stock. So I went with the Stratos upright, so far I’m very happy with it. Only time will tell how long it will last me. The hose on the Dyson lasted me about 2 years before it started to have rips throughout it.

[@bigwilliearmitage]

Wow! I could not disagree more. The one thing I hated about my 20-year-old Dyson DC14 was the inflexible hose. When trying the Animal 3, I was shocked to find essentially the same hose! If you pull it more than a foot or two, the machine starts moving. Shark may not be much better, but the Dyson hose is still BAD.

[@MrX8503]

Can you also include carpet appearance tests? Similar to CRI cert or mention if the vacuum is CRI certified.

[@Stigxm3]

How does this compare to a top of the line Miele?

[@bigwilliearmitage]

[@Tar0245]

I am thinking the edge suction feature is to try and make up for its lack of edge cleaning brushes. Still no removable main brush and no type of cyclonic filtration to keep the filters clean. All the extra detect features make me fear this being a reliability nightmare but maybe I am wrong. Interesting to see it has lesser crevice and carpet pick up than the Stratos. Still it looks very blucky and like the hose and handle design hasn't changed meaning the turbo tool is still super awkward. Dyson Animal 3 over Shark Power Detect any day!

I’ve also heard the duo clean function makes it harder to deep clean carpets as well having that front brush roller on it. One cool thing with this shark however for me is it’s crazy high suction. That’s kind of nice but disappointing when you realize that he mentions a wide air suction nozzle making the suction less effective when outside of a vaccum sealed space ):

hello, i am wondering if u would review industrial vacuums as they can easily be used for home use and are normally much more repairable. shark and many big consumer vacuum companies have terrible warranties and almost no reliability or parts for sale compared to industrial vacuums. short term these vacuums are amazing, long term they fail. a lot. Louis Rossmann has a excellent video about the subject titled: Shark vacuum cleaner makes the only modern product that DOESN'T suck, sarcasm. thanks in advanced! I think your videos are fantastic regardless.

[@shawz10]

the channel can't be called vacuum wars if he's not including all the vacuums. Most vacuum enthusiasts already know what to buy. It's wild this dudes channels quality has been dropping while pumping out more product recommendation videos for affiliate link clicking. No novel information or testing, just parroting manufacturer points and features. Vacuum wars' perspective, as he used to say, is one of the owner of a cleaning company. It's clear his company uses cheap sharks that they buy cyclically for the business. Better cleaning companies use Mieles. Even from that perspective he has blind spots, which he no longer readily admits as he used to. The perspectives of a cleaning company owner are not the same as those of a vacuum owner. Performance reviews exists but his videos are terrible, he's a weirdo and kinda racist, and he just does the opposite of vacuum wars (dunk on shark & Dyson without much real talk about why). No vacuum-tuber is honestly talking about all vacuums across the spectrum. It's impossible to say a Dyson is the best cordless stick when he doesn't even compare to a Miele. How can one say a shark vertex or whatever is best for a home when Mieles & Sebos exist. It's a lie via omission.

At least they didn't call it AI Powerdetect. I think I would have thrown up.

[@Miked1332]

I would love to see the performance of vacuums while vacuuming much faster than the slow push and pull at like 3 inches per second and crank that up to like 12 to 15 inches per second. Most people don't vacuum slowly like that. They want to get it done quickly, so they push and pull A LOT faster.

I wish youtube woukld allow people to post videos or pictures in the comments. I bought this vacuum based on this review. The Powerdetect system is garbage. All it does it vary the speed of the motor at the wrong time. We have hard floors and rugs with low pile. As soon as I get on the rugs the Shark immediately sucks up the whole rug and buches it up and then turns red and stops running. I just bought this vacuum and will be giving it or more likely throwing it away as soon as I order something else. Ive been vacuuming houses for over 40yrs using several dozen machines. This is one of the worst.

Im edging to this

[@djplonghead5403]

Yay. We have used both our apex and a newer vertex (both corded upright) and the Apex is far superior in my opinion. This seems super cool but a lot of stuff to break and repair.

[@PoshJosey]

please review sebo e3

[@jbt8922]

Buy a Sebo vacuum over any big box store!!!!!!

[@hollz1843]

Great review as always. I'm crossing my fingers a cordless

[@VacuumWars]

Fingers crossed!

[@BMETFerg]

Guess I'm keeping my Apex w Zero M. Also, they need to bring back the light for the wand.

I love shark vacuums and have used them for over 15 years. I went to Shark’s webpage and ordered it from them along with 2 deodorizers. It was all suppose to be here Wednesday. I got an email today though that I was being refunded for the vacuum because it was out of stock. The deodorizers were on the same order, but they told me they couldn’t cancel them and I’d have to call for a return label and they would refund them. However, they wasn’t going to refund the $20 for shipping. I spent an hour and a half on the phone with them before they told me I would get a full refund. Amazing vacuum, crap customer service. Tighten up Shark, or lose customers to your crappy service…. BOOO!

[@dsha2006]

i'm still leaning toward Stratos? Anyone here own that one?

[@paulalarsen7697]

Fantastic video, as always. Thank you!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Unavailable in Canada

For 300 more you can get a Sebo that actually can be repaired and a warranty that won’t cost you money.

What is the Cfm on this vacuum?

[@kippaseo8027]

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like it matters how much money you spend on a shark vacuum because they tend to be throwaway junk. All those weird censored gimmicks remind me of a time when Kenmore put that kind of stuff on there flagship Progressive intelliclean From the early 2000s. Unlike any of the shark models You can still find tons of them for sale no pre-owned off of Facebook marketplace, craigslist, And ebay.

Can you do the shark detect pro robot please,thanks if you do!

[@patricksingh9069]

1:25 is no one going to talk about the dyson has hair removal vanes but it has hair

[@Blackout720]

The hair would probably be removed eventually. It removes the hair as you clean and the brush is rotating. Not a very good example to be honest.

[@patricksingh9069]

Thanks! And I agree that is not a great example
