What reviewers say about the Shark Stratos Cordless
Two whitelisted testers reviewed the Shark Stratos Cordless (US IZ862H variant): TechRadar (hands-on) and Reviewed/USA Today (lab). Both praise its DuoClean dual-brush seamless multi-surface cleaning, the flexible MultiFLEX wand, and reliable hair pickup, but both flag it as heavy. They split on suction: TechRadar's hands-on impression calls it 'superb,' while Reviewed's lab rates it merely average among cordless vacuums.

The sources (2)
The suctioning capability of this vacuum was superb, and I never had to run over the same area more than twice.
the biggest revelation was the MultiFLEX wand
At 8.9lb / 4kg, the Shark Stratos Cordless was considered lightweight when it first launched, but is now one of the heavier models on the market.
single-pass dirt pickup, medium-pile carpet: 54%
Having these two brushes in the same head means you can seamlessly transition from one floor type to another without needing to worry about changing heads or settings.
The Shark Stratos picked up 54% of the testing dirt in a single pass.
However compared to other cordless vacuums from other brands, this Shark is average.
