Our Verdict
Shark Rocket Pet Pro
Shark Vertex UltraLight Corded
The Shark Rocket Pet Pro is slightly more versatile than the Shark Vertex UltraLight Corded. The Rocket employs a cordless design that allows you to clean almost anywhere and performs better on all surface types, especially on low-pile carpet. It also has a slightly slimmer design that makes it easier to clean under couches and tables, and it comes with a HEPA filter to trap allergens as you clean. Meanwhile, the corded Vertex features an onboard storage rack and comes with a turbo brush.
