Our Verdict

Shark Cordless Pet Plus [IZ361H, IZ362H, IZ363HT, UZ365H]

Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight [IZ662H, IZ682H]

The Shark Vertex Pro Lightweight is better than the Shark Cordless Pet Plus. The Vertex has a higher-capacity battery, which results in a much longer runtime, an LED display to inform you of the battery's charge level and the selected surface and suction modes, and exerts a stronger suction force. Unlike the Cordless Pet Plus, it also has a dual-roller floorhead that allows for superior crack-cleaning performance and a flexible wand, making it a lot easier to clean under most tables and chairs.
