Shark's cordless range is easier to understand once you know the building blocks. Most models share the Flexology wand that bends to reach under furniture, a removable battery and some form of Anti Hair Wrap brush-roll. The differences sit in the floor head and the sensors. DuoClean heads use two brush-rolls for carpet and hard floor in one pass, FloorDetect changes brush speed by floor type, and the Detect family adds sensing for dirt, edges and the direction you are pushing. This guide compares three current Shark cordless sticks on maker runtime, bin capacity, listed weight, floor head and sensing features, using only what each listing states. Shark's runtime figures are quoted in ECO mode with a non-motorised tool, so plan on less when the main floor head is fitted.

## Products

### 1. Shark Power Detect Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner

Anti-tangle: Anti Hair Wrap Plus combs; Pet tool: Not stated; Bin: Not stated; Runtime: Not stated; Weight: Not stated

Shark's pet-focused PowerDetect, with a chevron brush-roll and internal combs that remove pet and human hair as you clean, plus dirt, edge, floor and direction sensing.

In its favour:
- Anti Hair Wrap Plus uses a chevron pattern and internal combs to pull hair off the brush-roll.
- DirtDetect increases suction when it senses hidden dirt, useful for fur in carpet.
- EdgeDetect doubles suction along skirting boards, where pet hair tends to collect.

Good to know:
- The listing does not state bin size, runtime or weight, so check those before buying.
- No dedicated pet tool is named in the listing, only the flexible wand.

### 2. Shark Stratos Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner Pet Pro Copper IZ400UKTBK

Runtime (max): 60 min; Bin: 0.7 L; Weight: 2.16 kg in use; Filter: Cartridge; Floor head: DuoClean, Anti Hair Wrap

A light Shark stick with Clean Sense IQ dirt sensing, a two-roller DuoClean head and a battery that charges on or off the machine. A strong all-rounder for pet homes that want less weight.

In its favour:
- An in-use weight of 2.16 kg is among the lightest of the full-size sticks in this guide.
- The DuoClean head has two motorised brush-rolls, so it moves between carpet and hard floor without a swap.
- Anti-odour cartridge system and a 5-year guarantee on registration, with 2 years on batteries.

Good to know:
- The 60 minute figure is in ECO mode with a non-motorised tool, so floor-head runtime is shorter.
- The listing names a cartridge filter rather than a HEPA grade.

### 3. Shark PowerPro Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner, Navy Metallic, IZ380UK

Runtime (max): 50 min; Bin: 0.7 L; Weight: 3.45 kg; Filter: HEPA; Floor head: FloorDetect, Anti Hair Wrap

A mid-price Shark with FloorDetect brush-roll control, a bendable Flexology wand and a removable battery. It suits homes with lots of low furniture to clean under.

In its favour:
- FloorDetect senses floor type and adjusts brush-roll speed automatically.
- The Flexology wand bends to reach under beds and sofas and folds for freestanding storage.
- Anti-Allergen Complete Seal and a HEPA filter type are listed, with a 5-year guarantee on registration.

Good to know:
- A listed 3.45 kg is heavier than the Stratos, which matters on stairs and overhead.
- The 50 minute runtime is in ECO mode with a non-motorised tool.
