Shark's Vertex upright earns three-quarters of its 7,000 reviews at five stars, with multi-dog owners saying it yanks embedded fur and dust out of carpet their old vac left behind. The tradeoff is a heavy push, a dust cup you empty multiple times in a large home, and a rose-gold-and-blue look that some buyers hide in the closet.
