Cordless stick vacuum cleaner

Why We Chose It

Ah, the Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal. The Rolls-Royce of stick vacuums, if your idea of luxury involves cleaning under the couch without a chiropractor. It’s got Hypervelocity Suction, which sounds like something James Bond might use – except it’s for your cat hair and cereal spills. With Dirt-Reveal Technology, you'll finally see the horrors lurking in your rug, which is just what everyone's been dreaming of. It adjusts its brushroll speed automatically, sparing your mental bandwidth for deciding what to binge on Netflix. Also, the self-cleaning brushroll is like your kid finally doing his chores without being asked. But, spoiler alert, it still won't clean itself. It's the best cordless vacuum you can get that isn’t ashamed of taking up space in rose gold glory.

What It Does

• It sucks like a black hole on steroids.
• Illuminates dust like a crime scene investigator.
• Bends like a yogi to clean under furniture.
• Detects floors like a canine sniffing out treats.

What It Doesn't Do

• It won't make vacuuming glamorous.
• Doesn't eliminate the need for housework.
• Still requires human effort and motivation.
• Won't turn your messy home into a palace.

Tech Specs

• Hypervelocity Suction: Think Dyson’s jealous cousin.
• Dirt-Reveal Technology: You'll wish you hadn't seen.
• MultiFLEX technology: Bends but doesn’t break.
• FloorDetect: Smarter than your average broom.

Who It's For

Meet Emily, the overachieving pet owner who dreams of a fur-free home. She’s got a zoo at home, but her floors look like a lab experiment. Then there's Greg, the bachelor who believes cleaning is an extreme sport. He'll appreciate the vacuum's ‘no hair wrap’ feature as much as he appreciates his streaming service. Finally, there's Aunt Marge, who’s convinced she’s allergic to dust. She'll be delighted by the HEPA filter, but still insists on wearing a mask indoors. Each of them finds something delightfully begrudging in this stick of near-magic.
