In Mashable's review of the best cordless stick vacuum, Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart chose the Shark PowerDetect with Clean & Empty System as the best option for those with pets. "If you're dealing with pet hair from multiple pets on multiple carpet piles, the Shark PowerDetect — Shark's most powerful cordless vacuum — is the beast that'll change the game for you," she wrote.

With its self-emptying base, you can ignore cleaning out the debris and dust bin for over a month. Dyson has yet to come out with a stick model that comes with auto-emptying, so Shark takes the win with this model. Plus, the powerful suction is truly something to behold. "I've never quite sensed suction power rumble through my hand like I can with the PowerDetect. I can literally feel the double brush rolls snatching up the cat hair and other gunk embedded in my rugs as it pulls my hand across the room," Stodart wrote.

Another major benefit of the Shark PowerDetect is its ability to bend which makes cleaning under the bed, the table, and the couch so much easier.

While it's down to under $400, gift yourself (and your floors) the super powerful Shark PowerDetect with Clean & Empty System stick vacuum. If you've never used a stick vacuum or think you absolutely hate vacuuming, this model just might change your mind.
