A slightly cheaper alternative to the Shark Apex DuoClean is the Nv803 Duoclean Speed its much lighter, but doesnt have Zero M (the anti tangle tech)

An even cheaper Duoclean is the Shark Duoclean Nv771 which is also very light but is not a powered lift away.

We have the Kenmore Elite which we chose because of its really high rating on Consumer Reports, The Sebo Felix 1 which is the most expensive vacuum in this competition, and the darling of many vacuum enthusiasts. The Shark Rotator True Pet which shows up on many lists of best vacuums for pets, the Bissell Pet hair eraser, which Bissell says they engineered for homes with pets and it has a special brush that resists pet hair tangles, of all Shark Duocleans we own I chose the new Apex Zero M because it’s currently the only Shark Duoclean with Zero M technology which like the Bissell prevents pet hair tangles on the brush. And finally we have two Dysons the Dyson Multifloor 2 and the Dyson V10 Absolute cordless vacuum which has won our best cordless vacuum competition and is the only cordless vacuum that cleans good enough and has long enough battery life to compete at this level.
So lets start with the power, here we measure suction as well as airflow at the hose and at the cleaner head, we then added the numbers and found that the Kenmore Elite is leading with pretty much a 3 way tie for 2nd place.
With the pickup tests we tested all types of debris from fine debris like sand to medium and extra larger debris but with an emphasis on pet hair pickup on both hard floors and carpet.
Here the big winners were the Shark Apex and the Dyson V10 Absolute, in part because of their amazing hard floor performance with their soft rollers. But the Apex is basically unparalleled with both hard floor and carpet pickup. Some quick points on the losers in this area. They Dyson Multifloor 2 was not good at all on hard floors with pet hair and other debris, and the Bissell was only decent with pickup, and it also has a pretty major blind spot due to the belt being near the middle of the roller.
The carpet deep clean test, where we rub sand deep into the carpet is done on a pretty thick medium pile carpet so its actually two tests in 1. When we tested cordless vacuums the V10 was the only one to get a perfect 100, in this test I rubbed the sand even deeper but even so there were 4 perfect scores with the Apex getting a 98, the Sebo Felix and Kenmore were the only ones with a slightly lower score here at 92 and 90 respectively.
As far as thick carpet performance the main loser was the Dyson Multifloor 2 which was incredibly difficult to push on thicker carpets, and it stalled out several times. The Shark True Pet also stalled out a few times on thick carpet, but at least with the Shark it has a switch which reduces the suction for thick carpets and when we tested it on its thick carpet setting it ran perfectly, all the others passed this test with no issues so here are the results of these two tests.
Two other tests that are important for pet owners is the filtration and the attachments set. With the filtration The Kenmore Elite, Shark Apex, and Dyson V10 and Shark True Pet all had sealed systems with HEPA filters, and passed our test with a perfect score,

Your doing these test on brand-new vacuums. This video is very deceiving. You didn't even use particle scanners on the exhaust side or on the problem areas on the bag less machines.
I just got the Shark Apex! Great purchase.
I have the older burgundy true pet shark, it's overrated, the brushes always get blocked and within months the suction went week despite the fact that I looked after it and cleaned the filters, I'm very disappointed because they are not made to last long, I may risk getting a shark again because they are good whilst there new, but I expect the upgrades ones to keep the suction , and not to have clean the hair from the brushes after a few vacumes .
I use KARCHER vacuum
I wanna see you redo this pet hair test but after you’ve rubbed the hair into the carpet, hard.
I have barely enough money to feed myself, why am I watching this?
I am so glad I stumbled upon this video before buying a vacuum. I was already planning on getting a Shark navigator pro, but seeing this introduced me to the existence of the True Pet version! Definitely buying that instead.
Why not vacuum the pet more often?
Well anyone vacuuming large globs of anything like that is going to break their vacuum and not get the most out of it. You sweep that shit before vacuuming, don’t think vacuums are meant for that much EVEN if they advertise them that way. How to break an expensive vacuum within the 3 months of owning one. However, it still helped to see which vacuum picks up more regardless.
"Darling of vacuum enthusiasts" I… did not expect to ever hear that phrase… enthusiasts?
I love my Shark vacuum. I am sharing this with you because I used to not care about my vacuum but I bought a Shark Navigator a few years back, I accidentally dropped it and a small plastic piece broke that allows the vacuum to swivel. I called the company to see if I could buy a replacement part but instead they paid for me to ship the vacuum back to them and sent me a new one. I could not believe they did that for me because it was my fault I broke it but they said it was more important to them that I have a great vacuum that is not broken even if it was my error that caused it to break. I have been a loyal customer since that moment not just because of their customer service but because they have great products. I now own 3 Shark vacuums one for each floor of my home, my oldest vacuum is used in my basement, my rotator upstairs and my duo clean on the main floor. I would have to say I love the duo clean the most because it picks up anything with the dual rollers and it is so lightweight.
The apex is horrible it broke after 4 months
Numatic's Hairo brush works SUPERB!! I don't see a Numatic in this test…
I want that Bissell Pet Hair Eraser so bad
How come you don't do any higher end vacuums? You seem to only test the stuff you can get on Amazon.
What a great video review! ⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ For the "relaxability" alone just watching this one! 😊
I have a Collie that is mostly an outdoor dog, but does make his furry self into the house quite a bit, an Australian Shepard that is a walking shedding machine, I swear I can make another whole dog out of him in just a couple of days, and I had (we lost him recently) a Pomeranian that would shed if you looked at him wrong! I also live on a farm where dust and dirt would find a way in even if my home were airtight and vacuum sealed! So having a vacuum that can handle (long) pet hair, and general cleaning of hardwood, tile, and carpet, is a must.
I bought my first Shark a few years ago after laughing at my friend for owning one… until I tried it! Then it was immediately out with the old heavy clunky Bissel and in came my first Shark, then another (and current) one, the NV751, and I even own the Shark Rocket for those in-between days.
I don't need another vacuum but I plan on handing my NV751 off to my son, so of course, I want to upgrade! LOL That and Kohl's has a great deal with my 30% coupon and free shipping, (and with other applied discounts), I'm saving $106 off of the already discounted price!
This video helped me tremendously in making my choice! Thank you so much, for this review!
If u got the money. I recommend the V10. Such a powerful system
nothing has better price/performance ratio than a Dyson V7 absolute or V8 for more performance/bigger bin, V10 still too expensive and V6 too small.
And we clean everything in our house with 200qm+, mostly hard floor, but also often on the few carpets and couch since we have 3 cats.
its so nice to clean much different places with a lightweight cordless vac.
God Dam it why am I watching this I have hardwood and tile in my house
I'd expect my vacuum to go to mars for $900.. damn
I own the Bissell it’s awful the hair over time will get caught in the roller and it’ll burns the belt constantly
I was just watching telltales and Skybound’s the walking dead the game and now I’m here… wait how and why am I here and watched all of this video it surprises me how interested I am in vacuums’ 😂😂
