Shark Vertex vs Miele Dynamic U1 HomeCare

Our Shark Vertex is broken (I think it's the bearings in the roller) and I will not spend $100 to replace a head that will likely do the same thing in another year. I will be purchasing a Miele or Sebo from a local vacuum/sewing store.

It'll probably go down to $100-130 over Black Friday as well. Unlike the Shark, this one's also got a height adjustment (something that should be standard on a vacuum) so you can get optimal brushroll contact and good agitation of embedded dirt.

The final pro before we move on to the cons is the way that it handles. It was very smooth on hard floors and carpet and very easy to maneuver, especi...

The Miele Dynamic U1 PowerLine is a corded upright vacuum with impressive build quality. It delivers superb cleaning performance on bare floors and does a great job of picking up various kinds of debris on both low and high-pile carpet. It's extremely simple to maintain, with an intuitive design that makes it easy to take apart and reassemble. There's a few quality of life enhancements, including an on-board tool rack, a self-adjusting vacuum head, and an adjustable suction level

This vacuum sucks up everything!! Even cords you're trying to vacuum around. But once you know it's fine, it just takes a little extra work to pick them up before destroying them. The battery life is very good. On the 2nd setting it easily lasts well over 30 minutes of hard floor and carpet vacuuming

Looking to step up my vacuum game from my Eufy Homevac S11. I have a 1500sf single level house with hardwood floors and area rugs. I also have two medium shedding dogs and a cat.

Upon unboxing and initial inspection you can tell it had been previously owned but was well cleaned. Everything worked perfect. The round foam filter was clean but stained/discolored and the HEPA filter was not there. I would still recommend but maybe have back up filters too

Your U1's also gonna be good for cleaning the cyclones every so often since they will hold onto a bit of dust every time you empty it. Like another commenter suggested, a second set of washable filters is a good idea to eliminate the downtime caused by a monthly filter washing.

It’s constantly getting clogged or I have to constantly clean the brush roller. Right now, I’m looking at the cordless Shark Vertex.

The carpet in my apartment is relatively flat/worn (think standard bedroom carpet, but less plushy, nor berber), so I assumed using it on 1 was ok. Should this be set to 2 or 3 instead to help prevent the issue for the type of carpet I have? Also, should I have the vacuum serviced as a result of the dust and debris that clogged the filter? I am concerned that the brand new motor is at risk as a result of what happened.
