Analysts were impressed by the Shark Rocket Pet Pro, recommending it for carpets and hard floors (and performance on all surface types). They were pleased with its bendable wand and LED headlights. However, they were disappointed that it doesn’t come with a turbo brush.

Product Snapshot

Overview

The Shark Rocket Pet Pro with MultiFlex IZ163H is a premium cordless stick vacuum that was released in 2020, promising anti-brush roll hair wrap technology and powerful suction on carpets and hard floors.

Unlike most of the top-rated vacuum cleaners on the market, this vacuum has a bendable wand and LED headlights that simplify maneuvering around furniture. Equipped with an anti-allergy HEPA filter, this handheld vacuum traps up to 99.97% of small particles and allergens.

Consensus

our Verdict

Product testers hailed the Shark Rocket Pet Pro with MultiFlex IZ163H, endorsing it for carpets and hard floors. Experts from Looria lauded its moderately-sized 0.5L dirt compartment.

However, if you need a bigger dirt compartment, see our Shark Vertex Lightweight Cordless review. This vacuum removed an incredible 99% of the large debris on bare floors and 96% on low-pile carpets during testing, and tests revealed a decent 42-minute runtime.

Nonetheless, see the Shark ION F80 review if you desire better battery life. The vacuum produced just 0.27 kPa of suction, however. Explore our Shark UltraCyclone Pet Pro+ review for better suction.

Tech GearLab experts lauded its lightweight 7.94-lb construction. Consumers desiring a more portable handheld device should see our Shark ION W1 WANDVAC review.

This vacuum has a reasonable 74.8 dBA tested noise rating and boasts a bendable wand and LED headlights, offering outstanding maneuverability. Equipped with a HEPA filter, this model prevented the leakage of small particles during air quality tests. However, it doesn’t have a turbo brush.

ReasonS to Buy

  • Outstanding pet hair pick-up rate
  • Bendable wand is good for furniture
  • Impressive performance on carpets and hard floors
  • LED headlights
  • Low-maintenance design

Reason to Avoid

  • Lacks a pet groom brush
